lceah Posted May 2, 2009 Share Posted May 2, 2009 ^I see gl with it...I would think you push most of it out during it, by using something like a not-at-all-sharp razor blade looking thing...and go across as you do it...but that's just my guess...

nnoossss Posted May 5, 2009 Share Posted May 5, 2009 professionals use a special rubber type squeege. i have to get my drivers window redone sometimes, they didnt get all the water bubbles out :( it sounds alot like laying down vynil. With that we used a like a scraper lookin thing cant remember wat its called atm but then we sprayed windex under the vynil. Which eliminates most of the bubbles then took a heatgun and took them out. But some dumbass in the shop was holding it too close to the vynil and burned it.

Ben. Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Cutting isn't the hard part for me, it's making sure that it sticks for a while. I've got the hard cards they use to rub the tint down, just don't know why normal storebought sh*t doesn't stick like Llumar or something else.

tallhamer88 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 dont be a cheap person cause in the end it will affect you. go and pay to have your windows tinted professionally. you already got 90 into it and more to come with the paint. So screw it in the end just have it done you will see better results and be better off in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JdmJohn Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 window cleaner, and a hair dryer can make all the difference when your tinting.. lol and they sell those professional tint kits at advance auto parts for 20 bucks.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mpearce1974 Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Get tinting done during their slow season! Sol was $100.00 with life time, and visor strip! They practically beg people to come in during very early spring, and late fall and winter! If you get it done in the winter get a small space heater and put it safely into car for a couple days! Never leave on over night just in case something weird happens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
