PLEASE NOTE: Install our proprietary Smart Film®Sealant when the film is powered OFF. You must wait 12 hours before turning film on allowing the Smart Film®Edge Sealant to dry 100%. Not waiting will damage the film and busbars. If you cant wait the 12 hours you must apply our Trim Kit Tape to the trim kit instead of using Smart Film®Edge Sealant. If electrical connection busbars are NOT sealed properly with a non conductive trim kit, all warranties will be null and void. For frameless glass systems use our Smart Film® Edge Sealant to seal up the edges.
