Exact-Oh Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 exact-oh, ur a noob. its simply not safe to blast water under high pressure into a customers car. u will more than likely blast more dirt under the pattern than you remove. trust me, I've tinted over 10,000 cars... but I wont tell nobody that u attempted that.. shhhhhhhhhusing a heat gun is just not as effective as using a propane torch set on medium. if you do it right, it works extremely well. I have found no cleaner method other than totally removing the felt liner. dont knock it before you try it. it all comes down to how confident you are... if you dont have steady hands and a reasonable amount of good judgement, then don't try it. there is nothing unsafe about it, unless ur a psycho tinter with delusions of tint grandeur. haaaaaaa thems was jokes exact-oh. 100 psi nxcr tanks are cool to use too very funny sir-tints-a-not it burnnzzzz word! With 17 years experience, I don't consider myself a newby, and I don't consider the 50 psi slip solution from a cornelious tank unsafe to spray inside the customer's car... yes, I do protect the dash with a moving blanket when installing a sunstrip, but not once have I damaged a window motor, or defroster line with 50 psi H2O.

Guest Tintim Posted July 15, 2006 Report Share Posted July 15, 2006 Hey Exact-oh Wait until one of his trainees,confident and cocky, burns a headlining, or melts a plastic moulding. Only use a heat gun on a medium setting, if you're good you don't need to do anything but flush. Practice practice and more practice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest zolar Posted July 16, 2006 Report Share Posted July 16, 2006 The high pressure of the cornelious tank does the same thing, without marring anything. I even use the pressure method after an install... if I notice that there is a felt hair, or easier yet, a dog hair, underneath my completely applied film, I just peel it back to that location, blast it with the pressure sprayer, and contamination problems solved.

Just because your scared and unsteady doesn't mean that everyone is just like you. My shop has used a torch hundreds of times. It is extremely effective and it doesn't hurt a thing. I guess some people are just like you, scared to try new things. Hell, you probably already tried and your just mad cuz you didn't think of it. It's awesome if you try it. Sorry you have low self confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tintim Posted July 17, 2006 Report Share Posted July 17, 2006 Blake28, Maybe it does work - why would I need to try it when I don't have any trouble with felt infestations? I'm trying to make my life easier and take steps out of the installation process whilst maintaining a perfect install. Don't use hairspray or tape either and I'm sure they work. Does that mean I scared too? I think your the scared one as you feel you have to go through the exact same routine to avoid contamination - you don't trust yourself or others. If you did you be looking at ways to cut down the amount of steps you take from start to finish - thereby allowing you to become more efficent and do more cars. If someone can get the exact same result as you or better, using less tools and time, why would you not want to listen to what they're saying? Thats why I'm here - somethings crack me up. Can just see our Bentley dealership chuffed to bits at me taking a blowtorch to an arnage and they have deep felt seals.

Practice practice and more practice you "singe" the fibers with the door open you goof. there is no way to burn the head liner. I throw you in the class of the not-so-brites....
