Procedure for applying ultan film pieces?
I have to apply new Ultan film pieces to my lower garnishes. I purchased the pieces from subaru, but I can't find the procedure for the application anywhere in the service manual.
Is there a certain way that this is done? Thanks! |

I got impatient and did it myself. They came out perfect. Here's what I did:
* Mixed solution of about 1 tbsp of Johnson's Baby Shampoo with a full spray bottle of water. * soaked the car with the solution. * applied the ultan film piece and positioned to the correct place * used a bondo knife to squeegee out the solution * used a heat-gun to get the remaining air bubbles out It was very easy and the pieces didn't require any forming. They must be pre-formed from the factory. It took me about 30 mins to do both sides. :) Mike |

I have never heard of Ultan I thought Subaru contracted with 3M for stone guard film.

When I get around to ordering a set for my Claret, I'll keep this in mind!
Thanks! :) |

I was told that I got the last set in the country. Hopefully there are more in Japan. :( |

There's a good bit of those left and they're about $30-40 a side.

If you can't locate any (or if they are too expensive) you can always get a sign shop to make ones for you. They can trace and cut one to match in about 3 minutes.

what are these, I have never heard of them, is it the same color as the car?
Do you have any pics? Joe |

it's more like a clear vinyl, thicker than a normal vinyl sticker, also instead of a heat gun, whick has a tendency to stretch vinyl products leaving it in the sun for a day will get rid of the bubbles as well.
