Im kinda new to the business and on most vehicles the weather strip can be moved out of the way but what should I do on vehicles like newer chevy trucks. I have done mine pretty good but some the weather strip just causes to many problems what can I do to fix this basic problem? :evileye

you can pull the bottom gasket out on those :evileye new body style trucks

what I do is when I am cutting my film on the outside I raise it about 1/8th inch above the bottom gasket then cut my pattern. when I install it it drops down just enough to not leave a light gap and just enough to not touch the gasket.

you can take the panel off or tuck the gasket or use something like a gasket wizard. there are many ways you can do it.

do u cut the top part of the window on the out side or do it on the inside. I have been experimenting with both but the gasket usually gets in the way.

      I never see Nissan Rouges anyone. Because those cheap F’ers bought Tesla and cant afford low end film. Just a bunch of wannabes is this world today!

      Lucid Air- tinting issues

      We finished the car and the rear doors are really the only issue. The panel needs to be removed, then the power screen has to be removed, then you need plug the screen back in and leave the panel off. The window can be nudged up and down from the driver door. This is how we did it, if anyone has a better way, please share.

      Lucid Air- tinting issues

      I'm half way through tinting a Lucid Air and just thought I would give you all a heads up. The rear doors on this model have screens which are in the way. Even if you tint with panels on, it will be a problem. There's a wide rubber molding that is also in the way. Add in $$ for time and effort.
