   damn I f*****g hate that s**t. I'm getting to where I don't even like the full metal films like quantum and platnum plus. I just cringe every time someone comes in asking for it. it's the worst s**t I've ever seen done to a vehicle, ESPECIALLY ON SILVER ONES. just my f*****g opinion, and you don't have to like it. because I probably don't like yours. just rantin, no hard feelings to all you who like it.

    Dear Squeegee, Squeegee why are most customers such unappreciative, impatient, uneducated..yet all knowing, tight wads? Why cant they understand what we do, day in and day out is a great art? Only being mastered by true men and women who by their sincere dedication strive to give thier customers a great tint job. In short....Why are most customers such mind numbing pricks???!!! :mrgreen: Love, FastBackJack

    Hi Dudes Today I was at a Nissian Dealer. I heard a story of a tint co that blew up three Z car rear windows.The latest one today. I dont know if they scribbed the window causing a weak area or if its a flaw in the glass........ The car was sitting in the sun after being tinted when it shattered. Have any of you done this and what should be done to avoid it.? Any ideas?

    Ok everybody,,,need a little help here,,I'm putting together a price list, we started a mobile tinting crew today because we get too many calls for cars and I need help pricing a couple things. How much should I charge for front roll ups? should I change it based on vehicle make and model too? Plus our service is going to be mobile, so I'm going to add a few bucks for the convenience charge,,,any help is appreciated. Also, what models do u guys charge premiums for? hummers? beetles?
