I dunno about solarfilm specifically, but read Minnflyer's How-To in the "magazine" section. It helped me tremendously working with ultracote (oracover). I believe the basics should be the same, as it is just another heatshrink film.

is that like milar? really thin and light? if so model airplane news magazin (theres tis on their site about covering with light stuff) has good instructions. hope this is what you were looking for, ive never used the stuff so i dunno. i like monokote.

I know it's not a web page, but, one of the best books I'v seen is "Tom's Techniques" published by Harry Higley.

He shows in detail how to get a professional finish using the iron on coverings. At $14.95 it's one of the better modeling investments I have made.
