Dodge Avenger

that window kicked your a$$ ?!?!?!

just kidding thats a concept...what year are you talkin

What kicked your booty, shrinking or sticking?????

I'm still here. Messin with computer. It was the shrinking. Wicked compound curve top and bottom both sides. (corners).

Well, the good news is that you probably won't see another 91 avenger....... There cannot be that many out there that still actually run..... Seriously though, just chalk it up as a learning experience !!!

2001' and i hope I don't see another one. Finally got it close enough to apply but still had to relief cut . Ever had one where you won the battle but if you had to start all over again, you just might lose.

Yup last week

I had an Acura VIgor slip up on me. I checked makes and models in here and couldnt find it
Do any of you other guys remember it> What a biatch

wasn't that pretty much the same b/g that the accord's used to have?

No. Just large and frickin round. Like a bug only bigger. No extreme sides or anything. (gotta learn the picture thing) Actually, just to casually look you'd never notice how bad it is. Pulled it in, wife say's thats gonna be a bear. I say piece of cake! If you live in my world you know you are officially screwed. And I was.

I was referring to the Acura Vigor in 'Willie's' post when I said that about the older Accords..... What shrink method are you using??

what type of film was used?

I would not personally use a non-metal film.

Lorenzo, You need to be able to shrink a hybrid! Not the films fault, its very easy to work with. lildetails, this is not an easy rear, regardless of film type. Just hopin some one would have advice on how to get around those nasty compound curves.

I just two pc those buggers. Since the dot matrix is so spread out I wet sand it. After it's dried a bit, press the seam with a 'Lil Chizler' and hit it with a black grease pen. Oh and I totally must use non metallic films as about 80% of my biz is high end lines like MBZ, BMW and Lexus.

Maybe I'm just VERY lucky, but I worked on mostly high end cars (BMW, Benz, Infiniti, Cadillac) for the last two years usually putting Suntek HP films on. I only had a problem once from a dealership owner who couldn't live without his AM radio. I never had any problems with GPS, satellite etc.

Retro, I was having fits doing the dodge and chrysler back windows when using the Sungard Slate film. I switched a few months ago to Llumar ATR and I am getting them easy now. The top edges are a bit of a bear, but I have done 5 or 6 at least now and it has worked well enough.

Are you "pulling" the top of the film when you are shrinking? Are you using 1 or 2 heat guns? Both will help shrink a film better.

Not pulling and one gun.
Zolar , you are on it but have'nt had time to figure the pic thing out. Discription:
regardless of make, most problem windows have either (what I call an insy or an outy) Insy would be an old T-Bird. Bottom has that inside curve that you must stretch. Outy has that outside curve like a baseball. On this vehicle all four corners have the baseball. Obviously, there must not be very many of these on the road.
With that said, what is solution for those outside compound curves? I would like to think that switching film is a cop out.
