A method and device for automated application of lacquer film, which is integrated into a film composite, to a bodywork part using a robot-guided application tool. An adhesive-side protective strip is removed in a tool integrated manner and the stretched film blank is applied to the bodywork part using a doctor above the application point in the presence of a visible protective strip in a tool integrated manner. In order to exclusively use two-layered film composites and therefore simple application tools, the film composite which is individually and disposed on a hard substrate in a forcibly flat manner is received using an adhesive strip which is stored in a tool integrated manner on a roller and which can be subsequently rolled up after use inside the tool in question whereby it can be applied to the film composite by means of a doctor in a tool integrated manner. The transferred lacquer film blank is then applied to the bodywork part after the adhesive side has been uncovered. The adhesive strip is used as a protective strip. The adhesive strip is then removed from the applied lacquer film and can be re-used in a subsequent application process in the application tool. The active working section of the adhesive strip can be automatically renewed inside the tool after it has been used several times.
