    great video. just scooped up a 96 LT1 classic Corvette, this is the first Corvette hatch I've had to do. never thought of using a torch, I usually just shrink with a heat gun. i'll grab my torch and give it a shot.

    the torch seems like a very aggressive method of shrinking; is that why you use your hand to separate the fingers as you go, to monitor how hot the film is getting? Is this the same Corvette that Matt done last year on his channel?

    It is a big reason that I do that. Keeping the shrink even is critical.

    I went through a fascination phase with the torch for a while. The torch is much faster on some vehicles. I mostly use a heat gun now but am glad to have the option of a torch in certain cases.

    Most of the time the dirt specs don't come from lack of cleaning, they come while struggling with getting the film into place. You might notice that the contaminated areas are in the same areas that you was struggling.
