Review on πŸšͺ 36-Inch 3M Door Edge Protection Film - Model 08582 by Robert Staten

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent finish and fairly easy installation

Let me start by saying that when used correctly it looks great and protects delicate door edges from chipped paint and premature rusting. However, this was my first install and I wanted to make sure I was doing it right. Read the directions, read testimonials from fellow regulars, and watch videos to prepare. After all that, I still partially spoiled the first application by over-tightening the wrap, which caused stretch marks to form. I thought I was going to mess things up somehow, so I started with the rear passenger-side door (the one that's usually rarely used or looked at in detail). Once I got the hang of it, the other doors turned out great! Now that I have it installed and know where to look for faults, I can spot stretch marks up close. But after letting the tape dry in the sun for a day (I think the heat helped a bit) no one will notice and the tape will still work as intended, and this is my everyday car, not a hobby car, so you can deal with it .

Pros
  • Stain and yellowing resistance
Cons
  • A few small things
