Wow... Thats a lot of stretching in that video and for a roof you dont need to stretch anything. I did my hood, roof and trunk by myself. Use primer for around the edges. That'll prevent the edges from peeling. I never claybar anything. Just wash it and clean it with water/rubbing alcohol. I think its easier to start on either the passenger or driver side. Those guys started in the middle and had to fuck around with all that extra loose vinyl heating and pulling. You dont need to do that. If you start at one side you can do 5-8 inches at a time, from windshield to back window and not stretch it at all and be done with it in about an hour. You can roll the backing of the vinyl underneath and it will create a little bridge thing to prevent the vinyl from sticking to the car when you don't want it to. I dont know what they were doing spraying the top. Maybe trying to prevent scratches I guess. Just get a squeegee with felt on the end. 3M makes the air release vinyl too. Its awesome. You can pick it up cheap on eBay.
