cut down yellow turbo(4" and 1" for quarters) same for the black smoothies. olfa, scraper, triangle orange hard card, and a short angled white/black edge. sideswiper and bluemax/unger for back glasses. nothing too much

Is the yellow turbo still working well on removing water on the thicker dyed and ceramic films. When I was still working with tools everyday, there seemed to be many people wanting something slightly harder in durometer like the orange turbo.

I use a 3" dual angled yellow turbo on all my side windows with no issues. Sometimes it will take longer to dry out when its cold, but its really not that big of a deal. For the extra time saved, its worth it to me. No more waiting for the film to tack up so you can pressure squeegee with a bluemax. If you don't let it tack enough, it will shift when you go to squeegee it. I just knock em out with the yellow turbo, cut orange card, and file. 5 mins a roll up easy

i only got one ! but thats because TA is always getting his hands on my spares and loosing them !

I shoulda mentioned. My yellow turbo is for the side glasses and most of the back glass. I also use the sideswiper, conqueror, tailfin, white/black. Also in my pouch is a little chizzler and some other teflon cards. Some for shrinking.

I have tried the other color turbos on side glasses and they are just a bit too hard. So the yellow works well for me

What is that yellow box looking thing???
thatsnappyguy
thats the snapper....it holds all of your blades tips that you snap off throughout the day.

and i do have a few red dots but they are in my toolbox....i dont see a reason why to carry more than one at a time.

Same here. One knife in my shady apron. New blade on every car. Snap it in half after cutting the first two top cuts, then snap every window for trimming after that.

why would you ever buy a $32 handle? a unger is all you need and its like $7
samabhi125
Yeah! Blue max with a pro handle is the best one.
