Just a quick note before you watch the video: Keep in mind my car is relatively unique (and old) so their isn't a standard computer cut available. However, for 99% of the car in the world a computer cut is perfect. My car has a bunch of unique features that would have been an issue for the computer cut. Just an FYI :)

Larry, How easy is it for a pro installer to only score the top layer with the knife? Is cutting to the paint something that a pro is never going to do or something that happens all the time? Lots of horror stories on high end cars floating around.

I have put a protective bra on my car 9 years ago. Note that I drive it on roads usually contaminated with dust, rock chips, and possibly sand storms (Saudi Arabia). I must say it’s worth every penny. My car’s front bumper and hood is good as new. Although it costs much less here (around $500 with 10 yrs warranty), it’s still worth it.

He had the patent and I remember him flying across seas to make sure that he wasn't going to infringe on a patent for the film that was in between windshields. Man would it have changed his life if he could have afforded to renew his patent. 3m sure made a killing on it though!
