ENCORE PPF & TINT Channel

In today’s PPF installation tutorial, I show the full process of bulk installing paint protection film on a side view mirror in one piece on a 2026 Honda Civic. This mirror has complex curves and tight edges, making it a great example of how to properly stretch, squeegee, trim, and heat-seal PPF for long-term durability.

During this install, I also talk about going live on YouTube for the first time while installing PPF. I share what went well, what didn’t, and the challenges I ran into — including blocked comments, audio limitations, camera positioning, and trying to answer questions while working.

I also take time to answer questions I missed during the live stream and ask for your feedback on how to improve future live PPF installs — including recommended channels to watch, camera setups, and ways to capture better angles while working.

If you’re learning how to install PPF, interested in bulk mirror installs, or thinking about going live during installs yourself, this video offers both technical instruction and real-world experience.

👇 Drop your suggestions in the comments — I’m actively learning how to improve live installs.

How to Install Paint Protection Film on Door Handles
In today’s video, we’re protecting the hood of a 2025 Honda Civic Type R from rock chips using paint protection film (PPF). The Type R hood has a functional vent, so we remove the vent and install the film underneath it to get full coverage with no exposed edges around the opening.

This tutorial covers the full bulk installation process — anchoring, stretching, working around aggressive contours, trimming, wrapping, and heat-sealing for a clean OEM finish.

If you're looking to protect your vehicle’s paint or learn proper PPF technique, this walkthrough will help you understand each step in a real-world install.

How to Protect Your Paint Against Rock Chips with PPF – 2025 Honda Civic Type R Hood Install
In this paint protection film tutorial, we’re bulk installing PPF on the hood of a 2021 Chevy Silverado — a truck hood with deep recesses that can be tricky to wrap cleanly.

This lesson isn’t just about this Silverado… It’s about learning proper bulk hood PPF technique, how to stretch film across aggressive body lines, avoid distortion, build tack points, and finish with wrapped + heat-sealed edges for a clean OEM-style look.

If you're learning how to bulk install PPF, this is a great real-world example of reading tension, managing slip vs tack solution, and controlling film movement on a large curved panel.

🎥 What you’ll learn in this video:

Preparing and cleaning a hood for PPF

Setting initial anchor points

Stretching film over deep recesses

Squeegee direction + pressure control

Fixing tack failure at edges / headlights

Trimming and wrapping edges seamlessly

Heat-sealing for long-term durability
