Not necessarily OB..I've seen tinters that have been around for yrs that didn't know the basics of head absorption and thermopane / shading ,etc. :nope

I hope the windows are not too big :lol putting PS film up on large pieces of HOT glass in direct sunlight is a pain in the azz :nope anybody that has done it knows what I am talking about.

It gets all staticy when you peel it, it can stick to itself and get ruined unlike comm/resi film, its harder than hell to position on a hot piece of glass because it sticks like a mug, and then as you squeege it out it starts to set up and you cant get all the water out :lol there is a reason they make DRY adhesive film :nope

I bid on a local hotel here, all the windows were purple, all of them! about 200 of them. I asked them, if they knew what film they used, they said they didnt know but that they had paid about 300 bucks for the whole job :inot :inot and then I was like "well your not gonna like my price that's for sure" :inot :inot

I was wanting to tint some windows in my house, can I use my auto film?

Yes you can use your auto film, some companies install it on houses.

The more important question you should be asking though, "Is it a good idea to install auto film on your house?"

The simple answer is :inot for many of the reasons stated above and a few more...
