What happens here

Once the top and side edges are secured, roll the excess masking film at the bottom of the window upwards and underneath itself, creating a neat fold. Then, apply a continuous strip of 1-inch (2.5 cm) 3M 2020 masking tape along the bottom edge, sealing the rolled-up film to the window frame. Ensure there is no exposed window vinyl (frame material) at the bottom.

Goal: Completely seal the bottom edge of the window.
