How to tint the taillights on a 2017 Ford Focus Hatchback

Method 1: Using the “pre-stretch” technique, stretch out your film beforehand, and then use memory form to shrink it back to fit the light. This technique helps to minimize bubbles or peanuts. You can also lay the bottom half first and make sure to leave no fingers whatsoever. Finally, you can gently pull upwards while heating and squeegeeing horizontally in a side to side manner until you reach the top. The most important thing is to make sure the film is being stretched and heated enough to grab onto the surface.
