what is the true definition of the word "azzhole". not talking about your pucker ring, I'm talking about the adjective--as in someone being an azzhole.

well, I'm an azzhole. here's a little story of what I did today. and when you get done, I'm 110% sure you'll agree that I'm an outright azzhole.

our local steel plant got in 16 new trucks. I have to do the decals and lettering for all 16 trucks. rather than bring each one down here, I just load up my stuff and go up there and knock out 3-4 at a time.

today was kinda windy, so they pulled the trucks in the shop. as I'm lining up one of the door decals, I sense someone standing about a foot behind me. so I step back to look at it. :coffee stepped right on a guys foot and hit him in the face with the back of my head.

now, I knew he was there, and I did it on purpose. why? because I'm an azzhole.

I accidentally pulled the "G" off of "Grapeland" when I was weeding this one door decal. (no biggie, I can just cut another "G" and apply it later.) I purposefully took this one to install it. because I KNEW someone would just have to tell me that there was no "G" in grapeland. I installed it, and of course, here they come. not 1, not 2, not 3----FOUR fukking people in 10 minutes told me there wasn't a "G" on that door.

the first three got the customary "yeah, I know". but the fourth person got a dirty look and a sarcastic "yep, I know it's it not there. I know because this is what I do for a living."

I knew people would say something, that's why I did it. I could have just waited until I made a "G", then done it at the same time so no one would say anything. so why didn't I do that? because I'm an azzhole.

so why is my picture beside "azzhole" in the dictionary? because I hate this fukking town and the people in it.

according to a recent survey, 54% of people who are depressed, have marriage problems, have anger management issues, etc. are this way because they are unhappy in the community in which they live.

I need to move.

I could never do stuff like that, I'd think of it, but I'd never be able to pull it off. Takes a special breed I guess, and we even know the name of the breed.

      Best place to learn window tint ppf

      Ppf is going to be the easiest for you to transition to coming from detail and being familiar with car body shapes. Tinting can be alot more challenging to get right in a detail shop, even for an experienced installer. Taking the class from Xpel would probably benefit you in your position because it would (1) give you brand support for ongoing install questions. (2)becoming a dealer would probably be easier after having gone through their training and beginning a professional relationship. (3) likely give you access to a protected product area. Ask first to make sure that access will granted. (4) you would most likely be added to their list of installers on their website if you are accepted as a dealer. For someone just starting out the dealer/marketing support would be helpful, even if you pay a few dollars extra as compared to taking a random class and whinging it. Once you've been at it for a few years any solid brand/product will do, however, some prefer the dealer model for the obvious benefits and build their buisness around it. You'll find what works for you after you've been at it for a few years. Good luck and post any install questions you might have once you get started. This is a really good/helpful community here.

      Low angle haze

      I've got the ceramic 70 in a heat/light cube with the ceramic 30, HP30 and clear glass. That stuff is amazing, especially when you can see it side by side. I suspect it's two layers of ceramic base films laminated together to meter at 70vlt. I hope they never change it. Thanks @Bham. Believe it or not I really enjoy educating the customers to find out what they really need and not try to oversell just to turn a buck. Most of my new clients come from older referrals and when they find me I keep em for years. For sure more people are catching on to the product name and I've yet to have a piece of HP or the ceramic fail that wasn't my own fault. It's nice to know I'm not paying for a bunch of marketing collateral and a butt kissing salesman to travel around pass out tshirts and coffee cups that's added into the cost of my roll stock.

      Low angle haze

      Lower haze when IRR is too high, will be potentiallly lead to cloud edges.

      Low angle haze

      Im not that worried about brand recognition. Ive been getting work with Avery and its got little to no brand recognition as far as tint goes. I'm just looking for a good brand that I wont have an issue with. Avery is a fairly cheap option as far as Im aware, so I'm just getting ready to move into the big leagues with a more premium brand. Ive used STek's tint and I was pretty happy with the way it looked, shrank and the overall experience with customer service has been great too. I stopped using it because their specs feel like they are below par compared to the other premium brands. Specifically their TSER. Their NEX line seems to be compared to Xpel Prime XR Plus, but the specs were more on the line of Prime XR. Anyone know how that TSER number is calculated? Is it just a calculation combining light rejected, transmitted, reflected, etc? Looking into panaplex, autobahn, and global now. More specifically global because of recommendations.

      Low angle haze

      I second the Global suggestion. If you can get past the color(khaki) of the 70% ceramic, it is the best performing film in their line. It has amazing heat rejection properties at a 70% film with very little low angle haze. I don't have anyone complain about it. If you install 50% on windshields then you will LOVE the Global 50% ceramic. One of the prettiest films i've dealt with and I would say "almost" zero low angle haze. It does not perform as well as the 70% in my opinion because they have almost the same "stats". @Dano Hang in there with the brand recognition. Just spit your knowledge and let them look it up if they want too. Global is my favorite of the "big 3" and the recognition is getting out there.

      Best place to learn window tint ppf

      I am currently in the process of getting my detail business going in northern Alabama, and I feel that being able to add tint and ppf, would be a great addition and separate me from some other businesses. I have found a lot of these 2 day work shops, they range from 1 to 5 days, are any of them any good? I would assume the Xpel training etc would be quality, but I was hoping to find something a bit closer to home. I have no issue traveling but if I can find it here or like near Atlanta it would be a lot more convient. Any info on any of these class workshops would be appreciated, and if u got an idea I've overlooked. Let me know that as well,. Thx for the help fellas

      Low angle haze

      I've had good results with the Global so far. No minimum requirements but also not much brand recognition in my area.

      Low angle haze

      Basically, the technology that is blocking the heat is also creating the low-angle haze. Some films are worse than others, but they all have it. We've only had 2-3 customers complain about it in the last 10 years. So not a major issue at least for us.

      Low angle haze

      I have been using Avery Dennison's NR Nano Ceramic IR but I keep seeing cloudy results or low-angle haze. I think some haze is acceptable as a trade-off for performance, but there are just some customers who may not be happy with the result. Does anyone know of a tint manufacturer that has little to no low-angle haze? Preferably one without a $10k minimum monthly buy-in or something crazy like that. Does this only affect ceramic tint?
