If you can't SIMPLY remove the film with your hands I suggest u let it stay there!

It's a liquid that is best applied with a rag. Once it dries, use another clean rag to wipe the film off. I found it's best to do at least two applications.

We have not needed to remove the protective film as of yet. Sorry, I cannot answer your question.

You should install the film on the inside. Make sure you use plenty of water when you install the film. If you don't, it will be difficult to get all the bubbles out.

Security film almost always goes on the inside. You get better support for broken glass that way, and you don't have to worry about the weather degrading it.

Yes. Its best to apply to the inside of your car windows. If possible, have an extra pair of hands available to help apply window film.

Yes you should be able to remove it by (of course) reversing the process. I'm moving soon and will be doing the same thing. But just remember not all doors will fit the same way. You will be need to remeasure to make sure that the equipment will fit and if it does to you need to be a bit creative in adjusting it to seal to the new doorway. Don't through away any of the parts that are removed including the parts list and instructions. If you have go to the Ideal website and order what replacement parts you need or go to the hardware store for the simple things. If the door is completely different then order a new one that fits and sell that one to make up the difference in cost. Good luck!

The film uses no adhesive so it's just a matter of pulling it off the window. It's like putting up a "cling" decoration and then just removing it.

That is the shipping protectant film. It should be removed prior to use. The uv light from the sun will make it harder to remove the longer it is on.

I am a retired pro. Had a custom lab, if you are referring to 35, wet your hand and pass the film through two fingers in between knuckles. A wipe can scratch too easy i think. Of course there is more to say than i can type here. Good luck.

Mine isn't actually sealed in. I just slide it closed and it holds right in place, so I can take it right out and open or close the door. But there isn't a good deal that way, they recommend taping it in for a seal.

Hi Lee, I read many posts which indicated it does not, however I have not had to remove the film myself so this is 2nd hand knowledge and not personal experience.

The directions on bottle say to "avoid painted surfaces." However I did a bit of overlapping on my job onto a painted surface and no harm seemed to be done. The stuff is painted on with a brush, so Iused an small artist type brush for close areas. I did the job last April and the door still looks like new. I suggest you try a small amount on to a painted surface you don't care much about to see for yourself.

I believe it says to do it on the inside. I'm sure you could do it on the outside, but when I used it, I used the seal on the inside. It does work as advertised. I will say, I had to work a bit to get it off in the spring though. I think this year I am going to use this but I'm still going to use the plastic on the windows. I still felt the coldness, but it's probably because the windows in my apartment are just really old.

I doubt it, the film will probably tear away from the glass, it is weakly held on by adhesive.

Depends, It would probably make a difference if you coated the whole door but there are products more for that such as mass loaded vinyl(mlv) which is used for walls and doors. This stuff would be more for around the cracks and in the door jamb. That said, if you stuck it to the door by the sheet it would help, but say goodbye to the paint!

Yes remove the plastic film. It's only purpose was to protect the bed from damage before installation.
