Product review (4 stars): How I got rid of bubbles
I had a lot of trouble with bubbling as I applied this to my smooth dishwasher, but finally figured out how to fix it. I was almost ready to remove it and throw it away because I could not get the bubbles out by peeling back and re-smoothing, so I finally left it for several hours contemplating it. (I also made a call to the manufacturer's customer line, but never heard back from them.) Later that day, I got a very sharp needle, and made the tiniest prick in each bubble and smoothed with a credit card. Sometimes water would come out, which told me I had sprayed it too wet. After a lot of effort doing that, it looked ~80% better with still a few small flat bubbles, but I left them. Over the next couple of weeks, they nearly disappeared as well. Finally they are not even noticeable unless the light hits it just right and I am at the right angle. So I'm pretty sure I sprayed too much water. Just a warning to others. Use a very light mist. Don't give up if you have bubbling at first because they may smooth over time. I'm pretty pleased with the final result and it now matches the rest of my stainless steel appliances until I need to replace it.
