Peeling without a set up board

What a shiny head.

I'm curious..do you have to heat where your teeth are holding the tint? It must crease in that section to a certain degree

honestly there is no crease at all. i peel with my finger than just hold lightly with my teeth.

Alot of tinters tint like that and do great work.... Not me.........

So you don't tint like that..or you don't do great work

im guessing that later

its all good tell you get a nose hair in your tint..

or when you have to sneeze.

both .....I'm no good.

or when a piece of your dip/dipspit gets behind the film

Can you use heat to get out a little crease like that?

yea! you can use heat to get almost any crease out. just dont use to much heat!! i use the back glass for my peel board or wipe down the side of the truck just behind the door and use that for the peel board. i never have any problems doing it that way.

i've used the frame window that im tinting to peel off of lots... make sure, frame and surrounding area are clean...

why not a reverse roll?

I've got to learn how to do that. Sometimes in my shop the peeler is almost 15' away. When that happens I do a half peel then put the liner back and walk over to the car and re-peel.

you don't use a peel board and you don't cut on the car (besides the top edge)?

Peel board=glass I'm tinting

Or a booger....

Thanks for posting the pics. You have a good set of gnashers on you.

correct i have a very nice cutting board. i cut all the pcs. then put them in the car were they go. and just roll my fat butt around and tint.

what does that mean.

You are welcome.

Stay away from lip balm if you try this!

I would be more concerned with marks in the adhesive than a crease

no marks or creases. just top quaility work.

i dont think ive ever used board for peeling, ive always peeled like that. And ive creased mabey 5 windows out of a couple thousand over the years.

I've seen that happen. I peeled that way for years-now i use a peel board-its just easier for me.

im not saying this is a bad idea..sometimes you have to do with what you have...but for me..the less you touch the adhesive side of the film...the better off you will be.

How da Fukk can you tint with gloves on???

IF I had a safety officer/project manager see that, He would insist on everyone tinting on the job wear gloves.
( It was once asked of us to wear gloves, Quickly dismissed. Installing 15 mil with gloves will not happen)

Are they special coated? Let me in on the secret

they are nitrile not latex and the fingers are textured.

this is how I do it, most of the time, if I'm not removing the panel,it's a fast way of tinting, can knock out the sides of a four door in 20 minutes (if everything goes right)....and it comes out very clean if you've been doing it for over 15 years that way.....gotta figure, you're peeling the tint a foot away from the glass and slapping it on, not a lot of time for stuff to get on the exposed side, one thing I did notice, I only spray the glass (unless it's got that water proof coating, then I spray the tint as well....no, I don't "polish" the window first )

oh yeah, curl your finger so you're touching the film with your finger nail, not your finger tip, trash doesn't stick to your nail

dam tint fairy!

maybe more like studded.

I have had a go at this a few times, it makes a lot of sense to be able to peel this way especially for mobile jobs... I have given up, think I will stick to my peel board..

My peel board is clear plexiglass with very large sponge type cushions glued to the back side, and a rubber boarder at the bottom, so I can lean it against the rear quarter panel of the car and just roll around to tint the doors. For the b/g I reverse roll it, after applying two strips of wide painters tape to the fabric headliner that's next to the top of the glass, because sometimes the brakelight gets in the way of unrolling the film and I don't want any dirt under the film should it come in contact with the headliner.

I peel off the doors i'm not tinting, making sure they are clean too. For the fronts I usually use the rear doors swung open. For the rears I usually use the front door closed and just step backwards to apply the film. That's my mobile way!! And I also peel them upside down, seems to work all the time!!

Hey tdmillet i tried this and works pretty well I might say. No creases in the corner from the teeth or anything you just have to know how hard to hold it really. And its easy to peel the layer with your teeth too. Really helped me out when I don't have a peel board around.

glad i could help.

Can we get a pic of that monique?

masking tape is a PICKY tinters best friend.

i've been mobile tinting for 4 years, and used the car ive been tinting as a "peeling board". no offence, but why f@#k round with gloves and your teeth when you can chamos a car and peel off that!? and yes i work for a boss who cheks my work regulary...

why waste your time cleaning there car for free

dont be a hater. theres quaility, then theres you people.

have u ever heard of one step? it will shave 20 min off of ur time.

Looks like a fine tint to me... I do everything you do except hold the covering to the outside... in my opinion its the fastest way to peel the cover off with your teeth and hold it...

LOL i Just read where your from CENTRAL FLORIDA!! You might be taking business away from my shop!!!! so now I'm going to hate on you!!!! LOL just kidding... but Nice tint work nevertheless
