What tools do I need?
You'll need scissors or a utility knife to cut the film, and a cloth to clean the mirror surface.
Can I use this on any car?
The kit is designed to be cut to size, so it can fit most car wing mirrors. However, you should check the dimensions (8" x 5") against your mirror size before purchase.
How long does the repair last?
The longevity of the repair depends on environmental factors. Following the application instructions will help ensure the longest possible life.
Is the reflective quality the same as the original mirror?
The kit provides a reflective surface, but there might be slight differences in clarity or color compared to the original mirror.
Can I use this on a heated mirror?

What if I make a mistake cutting the film?

Troubleshooting
Air bubbles appear after application.
Carefully lift the film from the edge and smooth it back down, using a credit card or similar tool to push out the bubbles.
Adhesive isn't sticking properly.
Ensure the original mirror surface is completely clean and dry before application. Consider using a hair dryer to warm the adhesive after application for better adhesion.
The film is too big or small.
Carefully trim the film to the correct size. If it's too small, the repair might not be effective; if it's too big, it might interfere with the mirror's functionality or aesthetics.
