TECPPF Installation Liquid Formula Recommendation

1. Tropical or High-Humidity Regions (e.g., Southeast Asia, parts of South America)

In hot and humid regions, water evaporates slowly, so the PPF installation solution needs to have quick evaporation and enhanced adhesion properties.

• Recommended Formula:

  • 70% purified water
  • 20% mild alkaline dish soap (to reduce excessive foam)
  • 10% isopropyl alcohol (IPA, to ensure quick evaporation and increase adhesion)

  Tip: In high humidity, reduce the amount of solution used to avoid excessive slippage, which can affect adhesion.

2. Dry or Hot Regions (e.g., Middle East, parts of Australia)

In hot climates, water evaporates quickly, so the installation solution needs to retain more moisture to prevent it from evaporating too fast during the installation process.

• Recommended Formula:

  • 85% purified water
  • 10% mild alkaline dish soap
  • 5% glycerin (to slow down water evaporation)

  Tip: Try installing early in the morning or in the evening when temperatures are cooler, or maintain a humid environment indoors to prevent the film from adhering prematurely.

3. Cold or Temperate Regions (e.g., North America, parts of Europe)

In cold regions, water evaporates slowly, but low temperatures can reduce the effectiveness of dish soap, making the installation less smooth.

• Recommended Formula:

  • 80% warm water (20-30°C)
  • 15% mild alkaline dish soap
  • 5% isopropyl alcohol (to improve adhesion in cold conditions)

  Tip: Use warm water during installation to activate the dish soap better and ensure a smoother application.

4. Mild or Rainy Regions (e.g., UK, Japan)

In regions with moderate temperatures and frequent rain, the installation solution needs to maintain proper slickness while preventing excess moisture buildup.

• Recommended Formula:

  • 80% purified water
  • 15% mild alkaline dish soap
  • 5% isopropyl alcohol

  Tip: During the rainy season, ensure the installation environment is dry to prevent excessive moisture from affecting adhesion.

5. Extreme Climates (e.g., Arctic Regions)

Installing PPF in extreme cold conditions is challenging, as the solution needs to avoid freezing quickly while maintaining good slickness in low temperatures.

• Recommended Formula:

  • 85% warm water (30-40°C)
  • 10% mild alkaline dish soap
  • 5% ethanol (to lower the freezing point of water)

  Tip: For extreme cold, perform the installation indoors or in a warmer environment, and ensure the solution doesn't freeze during the process.
