think u have to shape the film before taking the backing off it an use soapy water so u can move it around into position an the squeege the excess water out. Don't quote me on this though, cos thats only what me mate told me !!!

clean window with soapy water, cut roughly the right size, slowly remove backing off film and spray the film as u take it off (this will prevent it creasing and sticking togther ) push on glass and using credit card etc, push all water out and then trim.

Secret is plenty of water

Throw it in the bin

Seriously, you clean the window loads and loads using some kind of solvent, so that you get all the oily residue off of it. Then you spray it with a light film of water so that you can stick the film down and manouver it around the window and position it correcty. You then squegee out all the water and air bubbles and leave it to dry out properly...
