Anyone done a CL500 Mercedes? Had a BIOTCH of a time getting the front windows behind the rubber. This particular model has laminated glass on all windows, so I couldn't use a torch to heat the bottoms. Now the passenger side is peeling. and for the price, I aint willing to pull the panels, real liability issues. :coffee any help would be appreciated. :chick Ever notice how your friend who wants the "brother in law" deal NEVER has an easy car? Sucks :cry

You should heat shrink the film on the outside of the glass, there are only a few fingers. Did you trigger the door pin switch so that the window is in the upright position? You also must leave the doors open for a couple of hours after tinting to dry, so that when the window drops it wont peel. Also be careful of spraying too much water, you can easily burn out the seat switch.

      My summa plotter wont connect to my computer even tho i have all plugs plugged in

      I sometimes have problems with my plotter not cutting or even my program not detecting my plotter. When this happens, I go to system, device manager, Ports (Com & LPT) You should be able to see your plotter listed and the Com port it is associated with. Make sure your cutting program is pointing to the same device and Com port in the program's setup area. I usually end up sorting things out eventually. Other than this, I have no other advice as I'm just a novice computer tech 😬

      Help me tint my living room windows

      Blinds/curtains will be the best route. You would have to add a dark window film to reduce the sun a good amount but not eliminate it. Anything darker will be extremely noticeable from the outside. Anything lighter will not be drastic enough to make a difference.

      Help me tint my living room windows

      I have a living room with windows on the east and south and knowing what I know about the effectiveness of even the darkest film, which comes with hazards of thermo stress on the dual pane glass ... I set the TV in the corner between the two windows. Viewing the TV and the windows in the same field of vision. There will always be a reflection of the windows on the TV, just muted. Curtains are the best solution for this issue.

      Mutoh cutter

      Anyone using a Mutoh valuecut-2 for cutting tint? I have one that I use for vinyl and plan on buying another cutter just for tint if it will work. Looking to stay with the Mutoh as I am familiar with it. Thanks

      Help me tint my living room windows

      I live in a second story apartment and there are two windows in my living room, one facing east and one facing north. My TV is against the wall facing left and my couch is against the north wall right next to the window. In the late morning and early afternoon the sun shines through the east window and casts an annoying reflection on my TV, and sometime around 1 or 2 pm every day the sun gets right in my eyes when I am sittin or lying on my couch even when I am facing the TV. I want to cover these windows with just the right film for solving all of these problems while also making it not look obvious that I tinted them, and I'm not sure what kind I should use because apparently different brands will have different results even if it's the same percentage, could someone help me out here
