How To remove Clear Bra (Paint Protection Film) The Right Way

[@copout1405]

I have watched your video twice now and will say that you have given me the confidence to try this myself. I bought an 06 Lexy GS430 several months ago in very fine condition with just minor cosmetic flaws, this clear bra being the biggest part of that. A guy is coming over today to take out a few minor dime-sized door dings with his paint-less dent removal system. If he is also willing to tackle the bra job for a rea$onable amount then he can have it. Otherwise I will buy the steam machine and jump on it with my own, old arthritic hands. Thank you for a very good presentation which includes the equipment needed, techniques, etc. for dummies like me jump into it.

Awesome I normally charge 85 an hour for clear bra Removal. Just to give you an idea. If your clear bra looks like this video below it's a nightmare to take off. If you run into any issues feel free to call the shop you can contact us through our website m2mdetail.com ask for Marc and ill help you were I can. Thanks for watching. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYjGgoipfN-op8k

A great video. The other videos using heat guns were too much of a bad risk in damaging the paint and I'd bet most viewers were like myself who just wanted to do it on their cars. This steam method was not only safer but seemed to work a lot better! Thanks for the insight!

what kind of steamer is that? I need to remove mine from my 2013 CT200h

[@keturahbuford734]

I love the assurance this video gave me. I purchased a 2015 Lexus it was shipped to me so I didn’t see it in person until it arrived and I say this and had a fit. I thought it was a scratch or shotty repair work until they told me it could be removed. And now I see they can do it without damaging my vehicle 🙌🏽🩷

Steamers are the way to to go for removing old stubborn window tint as well. Especially on back windows with defrost elements. The adhesive stays on the film rather than sticking to the windows.

[@m2mdetail781]

Very true!

[@downstc1]

Great video, gonna buy that steamer and start on my Scion tC, it's a mess.

[@michaelodonnell4582]

Which steamer are you using? You don't show a model # Or brand of steamer.

[@studentdrifter7986]

This is super helpful. What stesmer did you use?

[@studentdrifter7986]

@Maxim Leonard no English sorry

[@ohioguy4326]

I removed mine after letting it sit in the sun on a 90 degree day. Came off like butter with no glue left.

[@m2mdetail781]

Nice! what film was it?

[@maqa6195]

Looks easy but my Rv is too big for me to tackle plus I don’t understand why they do that. 10:43

I'm trying to remove a clear bra from a 2015 Venza right now and it's just flaking off. I'm using a heat gun because I have no steamer, but it's only getting me so far. This is frustrating.

[@m2mdetail781]

Steamer works better for sure. It probably just bad PPF if it is just flaking off though. Good luck been there before no fun

[@2ES5]

It’s most likely very baked on. I would recommend the steamer and a PLASTIC razor blade scraper tool, also worth checking out Rapid Remover Vinyl Letter removal

[@ed1pk]

Had the same problem. Used an eraser wheel you attach to a drill. Took forever but finally got it off. Way faster then pulling off bits at a time. You can KZbin a bunch of videos using it for cars and adhesives.

[@rayfranchi1507]

What about a very cracked and checked old film protectorate that will not peel off like that

[@m2mdetail781]

Just take your time and use a steamer. Put some headphones in because it's going to take awhile.

[@feeshermann726]

Amazing job and thanks for the tips!!!

[@desert4seat]

This guy is good! I like him

[@WS-hf3yr]

What is the Steamer you are using? Got a link?

[@bigrootbigroot8237]

What kind of steamer are you using. Can it be found on Amazon?

[@1arithelion]

What's the Watts of the steamer? Is yours 1200w, 1700w, 2500w?

[@RobertJohns-s8d]

This doesn’t work for clear bra that has been on a car for 20 years and it’s cracked all over the place. The only way to do that is with a heat gun a plastic scraper and goo gone to remove the adhesive left behind.

[@davidmcknight7998]

Please tell us about the steamer you are using

[@davidmcknight7998]

I purchased a steamer, not the one you use, it does not spray Hot steam. is your steam HOT to touch?

[@m2mdetail781]

Yes super hot. What steamer did you buy?

[@davidmcknight7998]

It just says heavy duty steam cleaner. I’m returning it and I’m going to get the one that you have. Thanks a lot for your help.

[@m2mdetail781]

Sounds good! This one works really good you will enjoy it 👍. No problem and let me know if you have any issues with it.

[@larryclair2195]

I wish it was that easy!

[@raya4358]

[@m2mdetail781]

Use a steamer. If this doesn't work get CarPro TarX that will help remove the residue of the adhesive.

Wish you had a better mic so I could hear you clearly.

[@getdowndemon1097]

What steamer do you use ?

[@DaveCLL]

Since heat rises, would it not be better to work from the bottom up?

[@TheAlabasterflask]

Sweet

[@samconway5288]

What name brand steamer is that?

[@durdysturdy477]

Another tip is to leave the car running the hot hood will make your job a lot easier

[@jaigimar7572]

👍

[@brianmcgauley2664]

Good video…illustrates the bad idea of saving money by not wrapping the edges. Exposed edges just collect dirt and look crappy.
