who uses a Gasket Shield or Gasket wizard

[Guest chip01]

What do you think to these install tools. Does everyone use them. And how do you use them?

I personally think they are great for certain cars ...but not all cars ...between a gasket wizard or pulling easy panels or removing just gaskets ..you can eliminate removing most panels yet have the advantage of working on a door as if the panel was removed...but that's just my way

[Guest striper]

use them and love them!

I have used a gasket wizard since 94 when I first saw one. I only use it on certian cars though.

It slips down in between the glass and gasket on the door panel and some adjustable bungee cords attach to the panel or grab handle and they slightly pull the gasket back allowing you lots of room to get your film down on the bottom.

I use the cheapie plastic disposable ones

on certian cars, it keeps the stray felt down

same as the others...I use em on certain cars only. and I don't use them very often.

[Guest Sprinter]

never used them, my friend has and he wacked himself with the bungee cord

[Guest darkdan]

I bought one shortly after learning how to tint.

GREAT tool.

I've been using it until recently.

Nowadays, I rip out the gasket if it comes out easily. I save the GW for cars that I can't figure out how to get the panel off safely.

I find I get much cleaner installs ripping out the gaskets.

its just another source for rookies and for those who dont know how to tint or remove panels....

used one a long time ago, when they first came out with the "big kit", (if I remember correctly at first it was just one or two flat peices with two bungie cords, then later they offered what we eventually got and I assume close to what they offer now). Anyway, used it for couple months and didn't like it, I remember the "plates" pulling out of the top of the panels and hitting the tops of your legs, has this happened to anyone else??
