ive never tinted an eldorado, let alone a caddy. what should i be on the lookout for? what makes these windows difficult? how hard is the bg to tint?

thanks for the replies to both my posts... ive noticed that older cars need more prep. new cars turn out so much nicer. i love tinting new cars. why cant all cars be new?

only thing that could be hard on that car is if it has a landau (cloth/vynal) top on it thumb.gif

lol. okay, ill believe you, smile22.gif right now, they just seem easier to me. i wont be doing this as a career, but i do intend on keeping it up as a side gig as long as i can. i really enjoy working on cars and getting to play around with all different ones smile22.gif especially wen the people drop them off and ask me to drive them back to their house.. the coolest one was a 300c fully loaded with a hemi! i was like, "are you serious? I'm 17." lol, he was like, "sure, i dont care." that was tight. anyway, i digress... Thanks for the input

Don't listen to Devil anyway.

He meant that in 10 years you won't like tinting anything, whereas you meant that new vehicles are easier than old. You are right. New vehicles are always easier when compared to the same model a few years old and dirty.

BG was a cake walk. i shrank and installed it pretty quick. only problem is there isnt much room to get my hand in there. The roll ups were gravy, and i did both in less than 40 minutes. The quarter windows... WTF?!?!?!?! there was no room to overlap the tint... Man was I pissed while I tinted those.

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.
