Clear-bra bubbles

I just had my hood and fenders wrapped with the 3m clear bra self healing stuff. It looks good for the most part, but I have a few spots that have bubbles that I can see from across the room.

What is a reasonable amount of blemishes?

Thanks,

Ed

Zero, have your installer take care of it.

You can pop them with a needle.

i drive them all, fast and hard
films themselves may have some markings or orangepeel on them just from the manufacturing of them....but the install should be free from bubbles....i chose xpel ultimate, very nice film

They eventually go away and dry out. I have Xpel ultimate that's exactly what happened to them.

Thanks. I'll give it a week and see what happens. That should be plenty of time.

If you have had it installed for 2 weeks and still have bubbles...they will not go away on their own - have the installer use a needle on them.

It helps to park the car in the sun - usually that takes care of them...
