# Can I wet apply DPF 50WD?

## DPF 50WD White or Clear should not be wet applied

It is **not recommended** to wet apply products with water-based adhesive such as DPF 50WD Clear and White because water will interfere with the bond build of adhesive to the substrate such as glass. It will also make the adhesive cloudy because water is reaction with the adhesive emulsion.
