When applying, use a squirty bottle filled to the top with water and add just a dash of preferably johnsons baby shampoo, then test on your hands, it should feel VERY SLIGHTLY soapy. Dont over do it or the film will not stick so test first, make sure your hands are wet when removing the film from the backing, spray them with the solution and spray the mirror too. Spray the film and position on to the mirror. Using a credit card of similar, squeegee the water out, working from one edge (i lines up the straightest edge first) while slightly stretching the material as you go to avoid creases, Try not to leave water behind as it will be difficult to remove when the kit dries. I'll try to put up a video post showing the application process as soon as i can.
