Ready to level up your car’s aesthetic? With our premium Chrome Delete Vinyl, you can go from factory chrome to blackout elegance in just a few steps. This complete guide walks you through everything—from prep and technique to finishing details—for a flawless result every time.
🧼 Step 1: Clean & Prep Like a Pro
- Wash your vehicle thoroughly to remove dirt and wax residue.
- Use isopropyl alcohol and a microfiber cloth to wipe down chrome trim.
- Let trim fully dry—no dampness, no skipped cleaning steps—because adhesive success starts with cleanliness.
✂️ Step 2: Measure & Pre-Cut Your Tape
Measure your trim section and cut tape about 1–2 cm longer per side. This gives you wiggle room for better alignment and cleaner edges.
🧰 Step 3: Apply With Precision
- Peel and Align: Start at one end, peel backing gradually, and align the tape before pressing down.
- Use a wrap glove or squeegee: Smooth out air bubbles as you go.
- Stretch gently with heat: Use a small hair dryer or heat gun for corners or curves—don't overheat.
🔪 Step 4: Trim Edges with Knifeless Tape
Place DesignLine Knifeless Tape along the intended cut line, adhere the vinyl over it, then pull the tape to slice clean edges—without risking damage to your paint.
🔥 Step 5: Final Press & Cure Time
- Run a final heat pass over the trimmed edges to activate the adhesive.
- Apply firm pressure with your squeegee.
- Wait 24 hours before washing or exposing to rain for maximum bond strength.
