Step 1: Preparing the Door
Randy begins by removing the door hardware, including handles and any protective kick plates, to ensure a smooth wrapping process.

Step 5: Wrapping the Edges and Corners
The edges are wrapped neatly, ensuring the film adheres well to avoid peeling over time.
Randy uses heat and pressure to mold the film around curves and corners, achieving a seamless finish.
Step 6: Reinstalling Hardware & Final Touches
Once the film is securely applied, Randy reinstalls the door hardware, checking that everything fits correctly.
He gives the door a final inspection, ensuring smooth edges and a high-end, professional appearance.
