Managing Air Bubbles
Occasional bubbles may occur due to insufficient pressure or missed squeegee strokes.
Here’s how to address them:
Small bubbles (½-inch radius or less):
Apply firm thumb pressure to flatten them.
Larger bubbles:
Split the bubble into smaller sections until each is under ½ inch in radius, then flatten individually.
High-pressure or tight bubbles:
- Use a poking tool to release trapped air.
- Apply light heat to relax the film.
- Allow it to cool.
- Reapply pressure to smooth the area.
Following these steps preserves both appearance and long-term performance.
