You should be able to simply peel it off the phone, and maybe clean up some leftover adhesive. 3M Comply adhesive is on the back, simply peel off the backing, and stick.

The different brands, number of coats, etc are all variables and we can't say whether one way is more perfect than the other as everybody is looking for their own thing. That's we always recommend to test first :) You should simply test on a smaller piece to see if it comes out the way you personally want it.

Valspar clear is different from PPG 2 stage Clear which I will be using. You mentioned that more than 3 coats, the paint started to "fill in" the texture. But isn't that what one would want? to make it look like real CF that was resined then clear coated?

We haven't installed it on anything outside of a sample piece of DI-NOC, so we're unsure of how it would hold up over time. I would look to the Valspar product (or whatever else you use) to see how it would do, I would assume fairly well. As always, test on a small piece first if you're ever unsure.

See if there are guides on the forum to do this. Once that panel is out, there will simply be cutouts where the buttons are, you can tuck the di-noc onto the back of the panel that way there are no seams at all. Milton,
