this is how it is i really didnt want to do it but its this or lose my job i've been there 8 years as a service tech now boom tinting. help get me through this you guys would be great. i am not here for laughs. just like some help thanks alot

Make sure you tape the felt on the sides on the roll downs to keep contamination down. The car is cake though.

theres alot of help here-but as with any forum -you need to be able to dish and take. I realize you were put in this position.However-the dealerships spitting out half azzd tint jobs on brand new cars does nothing but hurt the tint industry. Us veterans have payed our dues-and done the very best we can to live down film failures and hack shops muddying up the trade.Now with lulu setting up dealerships ...to fail-sets the industry way back. Nothing personal but what advice can i give on an hhr-???they take at least 45 minutes? dunno.gif Good luck man-read and search-everything you need to know is right here! Specific questions are easier to answer! beer.gif

TINTDESIGNZ
hang around-read and most of all PRACTICE. No subsitute for hands on.Luckily most Chevys are the easiest to do.You've definitely got your back against the wall. If they expect you to be skilled in a week-its not gonna happen.That would be like me becoming a certified GM tech in a week!Good luck dude . thumb.gif

after you pull the panel you can pull the rubber seal surrounding the 4 doors. you dont even need to pull the panels off. you can pry the top back and remove the whole rubber trim. the rubber trim will wrap all the way around the window. then its cake. just did one today.

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.
