    How to Use:

    1. Lay the tape over the vehicle's surface in your desired layout, aligning the filament along the section you intend to cut. Run your finger over the tape to keep it smooth and ensure it follows the cut line accurately.  

    2. Apply the vinyl film over the surface, directly on top of the tape, and carefully smooth it out to eliminate any wrinkles. Be sure to place your knifeless tape line before installing any vinyl, and make sure the vinyl adheres well to the tape underneath.  

    3. Cut or snap the tape a few inches from the end of the roll to detach it.  

    4. Create a pull tab by folding the tape to expose the release string. Hold the fold with your finger and pull the filament upward in the direction of the trim line.  

    5. Give the filament a quick tug, then slowly and carefully pull it to cut through the vinyl. You may remove the vinyl film along with the tape or separately, as preferred.  

    6. Remove any excess tape left beneath the film, and run your finger over the area to ensure a complete seal.  

    7. Tuck the remaining vinyl wrap into deep recesses or areas where the vinyl width is insufficient, securing it neatly in place.
