we do the clear film first then coat over the film, we have found issues with opti coat under the film if it does not cure in time, set time is about 1 hour, let it sit for up 5-7 days before you wash it and full cure is about 30 days.

If you could let the opti-coat cure for the full 30 days, then put the Xpel on, then opti-coat the Xpel, would that be the best?? |
