I tinted one today and had a slight problem with the side window. After shrinking i put it on then in about 5-10 min a bunch of tiny finger started to pop up. I used my triangle and got most of then but it took a long time and a lot of heat. Is there a secret to reduce the finger amounts??

well you quote that after shirking, you did'nt shrink enough, if you don't squegee right or don't shrink enough you can have fingers. check your work out by squegeeing the film like on a vette window and see if the top needs any shrinking, that will tell you if you shrank enough out in the first place. thumb.gif

IMO the key to snapping is heating the bottom 1\2 or a little less. I was just snapping the bottom edge and it was making more problems. After 3-4 cars I think I have got it beer.gif

pull gskt, snap tint, slap tint, restore gskt .

my guess is you used the factory straight edge on the bottom didnt you? sometimes the factory edge will have a bunch of tiny creases on it, and they will pop tiny fingers when laid down. check you roll. if it is, next time just trim it off a little on your board.






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.
