Protint Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 around here if you two piece a mazda 6 people would think you sucked. Llumar film (ATR) is some of the most shrink friendly film I have used. Try pulling the fingers while you heat them (lift and pull technique) developed by some 3m dist.

Mdog Posted November 29, 2004 Report Share Posted November 29, 2004 I leave alot of overhang on the top so I can heat and strech the film, on the bottom corners I blow my heatgun UNDER the film first to make it curl alittle then heat it like normal.

Guest Sprinter Posted November 30, 2004 Report Share Posted November 30, 2004 horz line? oh I get it now horizontal line. yes. no I guess it does'nt mean you suck if you do a 2 piece, its all in how you were trained and how you let yourself get the newer techniques down and how much practice your willing to put in to get where you want to go, and that would be one piecing everything that you will tint at least 10 times in your life.
