Full Version: 2006 Chevy Corvette Hints?
Got a 2006 chevy corvette to do at work tomorrow, never done one of these BG, done the side windows, but not the BG, the other tinter which has about 8+ yrs. experience vs. my 2+ is out with back problems. I did a camaro back glass the other week, took me ahwile to get it but i got it in the end. Anyways, any tips on the shrinking process? I use bounce for the shrinking process (dry shrink). Thanks for any help.

Thanks guys, ill post pics after work and let yall know how it went.
They really aren't that bad, I think where peopl get screwed up is not shrinking the film up and down, its very easy to take that to one side or the other just because of the way the glass is...
Hey guys just wanted to update yall, the car ended up rescheduling, so i have it to do tomorrow... Hopefully it will go well =]
Make sure u have plenty of time. If u mess up try something new. Don't keep goin at it the same way.
Once you've done about 2 they aren't bad. Its just figuring the right way to do it. I only anchor the horizontal line, and the up lines. Not the down
Sooo the corvette finally came, but it wasn't a hatch like i had thought, it was a convertible instead. But the BG still wasn't the easiest but not the hardest, extremely easy to shrink, just had to take time on cutting it so there was no lite leak around it, since it was borderless... Turned out AMAZING though =] Customer very happy.. ATR 20% let me know what you guys think.
