easier to splice or do a one piece?

can ony one here do a one piece on this?

how much time and experience do you have? If I can one piece them...anybody can but sometimes its faster and you have less waste (depending on the amount of experience) to do it in 2

Agreed
Yes they can be done in one, but if its easier and cleaner for you to do it in 2, then do it that way.Good luck

I did one in 4 pieces, but it was in Huper Optik Drei, and I wasn't about to waste any of that film

1 piece windows are king, but sometimes splicing is OK as well

one piece. if you fail, brush ur self off and try again

Condition ur self,man.One peice it!Try,try,again!(un less circumstance prevent this)

run with the big dogs or stay on the porch ... 1 PIECE!!!!

Lol

get your film rep off his/her azz and help you one-pc. that Bug. If you do not have a film rep, you might consider using film that comes with a rep*

*rep def. one who represents window film (sales, installation, etc.)

Well Ive been tinting for almost 5 yrs, and in these 5 yrs my 2nd beetle comes in today.
We use Sungaurd we have the shadow line (died film) or slate (metal) and was wondering if anyone was familiar with these lines. i feel they shrink like
and wont shrink enough to 1 piece this car. I will try for my pride, so any info would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

not this topic again...

it's your heat gun.

1 piece all day long bro

to ervie.... ive been tintin for 3 years i also use sungard shadow line and i did a bug last week in one piece in shadow 38 i love the sungard films i used madico for 3 years just recently using sungard. To me madico charcoal xsr line of films is easier to shrink than my sungard but i also agree with sprinter the heat gun has alot to do with it... and also try heating it on high heat low blow setting..

All I have to say is suntek CARBON!!! That shrinks great!!!!

Well i use the milwaukee Heat gun750oF on low and 1000oF on high all ive ever used.
So any suggestions would be good

yeah i use wagner HT 3500 digital heat gun i use it on 950 low heat excellent gun it i heated on 750 it would take forever to shape a back glass the gun is about 50 buck but well worth it.. i also have used the eddy heat gun the red one with the temperature dial on the back but they dont last long at all been through about 4 of em wagner has lasted a while

i did one the other day with global qdp 20 and the red milwaukee heat gun. got it down in 15 mins. also did a 08 vet with the same set up, it took about 30 mins to get it down.

pull method top and bottom on the bug.
dryer sheet the vet.

Ya the heat gun i use is one of those $30 ones maybe i need a change. I use what the boss gets
