What You’ll Need

Before you start applying the matte magic, make sure you have everything ready:

  1. ChroMorpher Matte Chrome Delete Tape
  2. Squeegee or credit card (to smooth out the vinyl)
  3. Heat gun or hairdryer (to help the vinyl conform to curves)
  4. Microfiber cloth (to clean the surface beforehand)

Step-by-Step Application Guide

  1. Prep Your Surface First things first—clean your car’s chrome trim. You don’t want any dirt, grime, or old wax getting in the way of a smooth finish. Grab a microfiber cloth and give it a good wipe-down. (Yes, it's okay to pretend you're polishing a trophy 🏆—you’re about to win the car styling game.)

  2. Measure and Cut Roll out the ChroMorpher matte tape and cut it to the length of the chrome piece you're covering. Leave a little extra length on the ends for perfect coverage—like when you order extra fries 🍟.

  3. Peel and Stick Time for the fun part! Peel back the adhesive liner and carefully apply the tape to the chrome trim. Start at one end and work your way down, smoothing it with your squeegee (or credit card if you’re improvising). It’s like applying a sticker—but way cooler. 😎

  4. Smooth Out Bubbles No one likes bubbles (unless they’re in champagne). Use the squeegee to smooth out any air bubbles as you apply the vinyl. If you spot stubborn bubbles, peel back a little bit of the tape and reapply it smoothly.

  5. Heat and Press This is where the heat gun or hairdryer comes in. Gently heat the vinyl so it conforms to the curves of your trim. Be careful not to overheat—it’s a wrap, not a roast! This will ensure the tape adheres smoothly and securely.

  6. Trim the Edges Once everything’s smooth and applied, use a blade or sharp tool to trim any excess tape for a flawless edge. No one will ever know you didn't take it to a shop. 😏


Why Matte Over Gloss?

While both finishes have their perks, matte has a unique appeal—it’s sleek, subtle, and sophisticated. It gives your car a more aggressive, modern look without being too flashy. Plus, it’s easy to maintain. Dirt and smudges? They’re no match for that matte finish.
