Faqs - Frequently Asked Questions

Can the film be removed without damage?
Lamin-x protective film can be easily removed without damage to the right or original paint. Upon initial application, the film can be pulled back up and reapplied numerous times if not installed correctly. The film and adhesive are forgiving enough for thsi. Once the film has settled (appx 48-72 hours), the product is not considered reusable. Upon removal, warm the film and lift off slowly. If there is any additional adhesive left on the lens, simply rub the adhesive with Goo Gone or similar product.

I cannot find a precut kit for my vehicle. What should I do?
Sometimes, we do not have precut kits available for many older model vehicles or custom-shaped applications. The best solution for this is a custom fitment of uncut/bulk films, which is what the pros prefer. Applying an uncut sheet is just as easy and more forgiving, as the bulk sheets do not need to be perfectly aligned to fit properly. Just cover the desired area and custom trim to fit your specifications and liking.

How do I know which bulk size film to purchase?
Measure the surface area where the film is going to be applied. Take into consideration any bends or compaound curves that may need the material to bend when wrapping. Then, choose the most applicable size for your need. Please contact us if you require a more custom size than what is listed. Note: A Tailor's Tape works well when measuring for bulk film. Then, locate the most appropriate bulk sheet size in the "Custom" section of our online store.

Are your colored films legal on headlights for street use?
Our colored films may not be legal for street use of primary lighting. An off-road disclosure is recommended. Please check your state or local laws before application. Installation of colored Lamin-x Film on your primary lights is done so at your own risk.

Recent Install. There are still some tiny bubbles and milkiness underneath, as well as creases/ripples on top of the film. What should I do?
Once the film settles, any small bubbles/milkiness or application creases will disappear. Lamin-x is a breathable PVC vinyl film. Tiny air pockets will evaporate. The creases/ripples caused by application cards or your finger will smooth out once settled and warmed.

Can I comfortably install the paint protection myself?
Due to the size, complexity, and general PITA factor, the complete paint protection kits are best installed by professionals. But it can be done by those customers who are very mechanically inclined, patient, and havve an extra pair of hands to help out. Our paint protection kits include installation instructions and application tools, which describes the best installation method for each area/piece. We are also available to verbally assist the customer if any questions or complications arise.

Why should I pick your film over the cheaper overlay I find online?
Those films are a complete pain to install on any lights that have a compound curve. That sticker film is not designed for that. It also has an orange peel texture to it, which gives it a matte finish. Plus, it will tear easily if your try to reinstall it to fix any installation errors as they are only 3mils thick. Which does nothing to protect your lights. Yeah, they are cheaper, but the phrase "you get what you pay for" totally applies here. Lamin-x films are the complete opposite: softened and pliable to bend around most compound curves that moder lights have. You can reinstall in numerous times until it looks right. Glossy smooth surface. Plus, our films being 17-40mils thick actually protect your lights form damage and abuse.
