Full Version: 96 LINCOLN TOWN CAR (VINYL TOP)
THIS CAR WASN'T VERY FUN, VINYL OVERLAPPED REAR WINDOW & ONE SIDE ON REAR ROLL DOWNS. VERY CAREFUL CUTTING ON THIS CAR, CHARGE OUT THE AZZ ($250-UP). DO YOUR NORMAL DRY SHRINK (CAREFULLY) CUT ABOUT 1/2" BIGGER ALL AROUND. WHEN CUTTING OUT FOR DEFROSTER HOOK UPS, LOOK AT YOUR CUT YOU MAY HAVE TO POSITION THE FILM HIGHER OR LOWER SO YOU DONT HAVE A LIGHT LEAK. AFTER YOU HAVE INSTALLED FILM, IT WILL NEED SOME HEAT. NOT TOO MUCH YOU WILL BURN UP THE VINYL. THIS CAR SUCKS
These aren't bad at all..just use 2" masking tape (double layer)around the perimeter..that'll iliminate the burning of the vinyl top. use a china marker(grease pen ) instead of your olfa if your afraid of cutting vinyl. Then trace it with knife once it's removed away from car (over cut it a bit if you desire no light gaps)
All 4 doors on these vehicles also have to be heat formed!
I did one yesterday I did not have to shrink the side glass..
the one I did was a rag top too.. hate them but thank god the BG is super flat and not much shrinking is needed
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known. © 1999 - 2009 Ric Wellman All Rights Reserved. Contact: tintdude[a]gmail.com | |||
