Blind leading the masses

Here is an article with step by step instructions on how to tint your vehicle.

Here are some highlights:-

"What the pros do is cut the tint in thin strips and place it carefully between the lines of your rear window defroster wires. "

"Get a small rubber squeegee or rubber spatula "

"If you like the trim as it is, apply some clear nail polish to the top edges of the glass. "

"Don't apply tint film in the winter months."

"Push the tint right into the edge, using a sharp razor cut the film a couple mm's (1/16 inch) onto the window rubber as the film will shrink slightly when dry."

"For stubborn water or air bubbles that won't come out on a flat surface use a tiny sharp pin to poke a tiny hole in the film."

I personally liked the clear nail polish at the top of the glass.

Now that's classy.
