Full Length PPF Install - Bulk Defense+ Matte PPF Install - Rear Bumper - Tesla Model Y

In this video, Eric goes over how to install a rear bumper on a 2022 Tesla Model Y using a bulk PPF Installation method. Bulk is an easier but harder method of installing PPF. Easier in the sense that you instantly have full coverage, harder in the fact that you have trim off all of the excess PPF and any time you use a knife on PPF, you run the risk of cutting paint.

Well, this is incredibly challenging to pull off. Excellent hand-eye coordination.

You make some of the best videos on and about PPF. Keep up the good work.

Awesome videos, man. My one catch was pushing the charge port down. Put the cars in carwash mode to avoid that.

Nice job on a difficult place to wrap Chris. Always enjoy watching a master at work. Thanks for sharing your wisdom with those of us wanting to learn more.

How in this world do you use the knife to cut over the body and still not scratch!! Crazy! You just have magical hands Eric!!

[pradneshmalgunkar]

thanks dude for all your tips, I have been able to do some DIY myself on my car by just watching your videos! :)

[jamesilisan]

So helpful! Thankyou so much for posting this series!!

[etdancer]

Great video. Thank you so much for the input.

Hey man. Thanks for your videos and effort! One small comment about the relief cut you made on the inside portion of the bumper. It actually isn't necessary. If you actually do start from the middle, lock the film down in the middle with no stretch, and then slightly stretch the film towards the wheels (not enough strength to cause a glueline, but just enough to get rid of the fingers) you'll have enough film to feed into that area without the need for a relief cut. Use a bit of hot water or steam and feed the film in there before squeegeeing it down. We have done over 50 Model Ys all bulk in our shop, and we haven't had a failure in that part yet after choosing this method. Give it a try, you'll have a much cleaner install that way and if you feed the film correctly, you can cover it all the way in there right before the bumper goes up 😊 cheers, and good luck!

good Job, the only thing i would have done is to cut at the inner edge, on the middle part :)

[Bezpokraski]

hi Bro, these are more interesting videos and useful than gluing on patterns, shoot more videos when you make from a large piece of film!))) waiting for the video

Amazing video and tutorial... Really Great and we'll explained brother.. love from Nepal

[herlindaglasscock]

Excellent job Eric! Thank you for the tutorial and the great videography. You build my confidence as I prepare to do this.

[OmarHernandez-gisl]

You are one of the best installers and you also explain it correctly, I learn a lot watching your videos, I took my trainings with 3M but you only learn a little about the basics and it is difficult to get out of the training and doing all this type of work takes too much time, more techniques are needed advanced like this that you do thanks, a question I don't know if I heard correctly but see that your solution is only hot water, is that correct? they regularly teach you that you need alcohol to activate the glue

[stasgersh]

Thanks for the detailed video! Really helps!
One question :
Which bottle did you use for hot water (if you can share the link to )

[davidmckenna]

Sorry I called you Chris. Just wanted to share my experience with the heat gun on matte clear. If left on a spot just a little to long it will make the spot shiny. That’s a bummer when this happens.

[NicooRico]

Can I ask why didn't you put PPF all the way to cover the inside lip of the trunk? You mentioned that dragging things in and out of a trunk might potentially scratch the vehicle. Just curious to know why not place extra coverage along the inside to minimize any future damage.

[leftie]

Can you link sprayer and blades that you use? Please more video's of bulk matte installs :) Thank you!

[wypolerowany-kosmetykasamo]

Hi Erick, is it possible to make your one pre-cut pattern? Ofc not a perfect one, but for example durging this instal you have to cut whole trunk section. Can we cut this before instal to save meterial? Or making this cut will only make a problem with stretching (or any other issue)

[fatwajim]

Where is the link to the sprayer? Thanks
