A method, software application, and system for assembling a pattern and cutting and applying a film to a vehicle, including: receiving a vehicle identification and obtaining the pattern associated with the received vehicle identification using pattern assembly instructions stored in a memory and executed by a processor; modifying the pattern using pattern modification instructions stored in the memory and executed by the processor; transmitting the pattern to a cutting machine, wherein the cutting machine is operable for cutting the film according to the pattern; and transmitting installation instructions associated with the pattern to a mobile device that is adapted to be utilized by an installer/user and display the installation instructions proximate the vehicle.

Systems and methods for assembling patterns and cutting and applying window films and paint protection films

Methods are disclosed for training an installer to cut a film without damaging an underlying substrate. The methods include the steps of applying a stretchable surface-protection film to an electrically-conductive substrate provided with at least one irregularity; and cutting the surface protection film with an electrically-conductive knife which, when in contact with the electrically-conductive substrate, causes one or more notifications to occur. Also disclosed are devices that may be used in carrying out the methods of the invention.

Methods and apparatuses for training installers of surface-protection film

Optical products that include a composite coating, deposited on a substrate, provided with at least one bilayer having a first layer and a second layer, each provided with a binding group component which together form a complementary binding group pair. The at least one bilayer comprises a pigment blend that includes: a) at least two pigments that, when mixed together and formed into a bilayer, exhibit a color reflection value that is less than about 2.5; and b) one or more pigments that when mixed and formed into a bilayer selectively block visible light in a wavelength range of interest.

Selective light-blocking optical products having a neutral reflection

Optical products that comprise a composite coating having multiple bilayers of a first layer and a second layer, each provided with a binding group component which together form a complementary binding group pair, the multiple bilayers comprising: at least one bilayer a) comprised of a first pigment or pigment blend that exhibits a color reflection value that is less than about 2.5; at least one bilayer b) comprised of a pigment or pigment blend that selectively blocks visible light in a wavelength range of interest; and at least one bilayer c) comprised of a second pigment or pigment blend that exhibits a color reflection value that is less than about 2.5, wherein the optical product selectively blocks visible light in the wavelength range of interest, while exhibiting a color reflection value that is less than about 2.5.
