Do they make them in wrist size? Slipped cutting off the glue from a broken backglass and my wrist slid across the broken tempered glass. It's not really a cut, it's more like shredded meat, and I think I hit a vein because it's bleeding like a mofo. Usually I use lint free towel and blue tape for this sort of thing, but I just happened to have some gauze in the 1st aid kit.

not from careless mistakes

Dude, if it's not from a careless mistake, there's no effin' rad story behind it. If there's no effin' rad story behind it, chicks don't dig it.

Besides, with the amount of work I did today, something on me was bound to be broken.

DUDE! like shaa! Like you know I totally got like my friggin hand like almost caught in a blender dude.

But see, it's not about almost getting your hand caught in the blender, it's about almost getting your hand caught in the blender while trying to beat some drunk a$$'s face in with the blender.

:beer ok kids gimme my thread :lol I have heard of the the liquid bandage but howz it hold up with use and water? I've never used it but I know I would have been applying layer after layer of the stuff trying to keep this gaping fleshwound closed, good alternative though. I saw someone else has used the waterproof bandages and liked them, as for coming off it was clean. my cut required me to wrap the adhesive around my fingernail which came off with a 'lil alcohol pad I use to "erase" the 3M logos. plus my favorite part was that I found them at the 99 cent store. I luv that place :rollin

      Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield

      Since there is no limit of darkness on the top strip, I have wanted to tint it. But I would go very dark, to help with sun glare in the evening.

      Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield

      Yeah that’s a very fair point to a degree I’m probably overthinking it. I don’t see really significant glare reduction until you get into much darker tint. Like you I think visibility for me is more important living in the country. I’ll probably see what the specs list the differences between 70% and 80% and then double check with the tinter as to what they recommend. Likely will end up with 70% with a strip along the top. Air80 seems to be much more popular, not sure if it’s due to performance or the difference in cost being so much more for the stratos. thank you

      Process

      Hey guys - so I work for a vinyl graphics company that is adding window tinting to their repertoire and I had a question about your guys' ideal process. I have my plotter set up and my window tinting software ready to go, but I am completely ignorant about the way that tint installers prefer that things be cut. Currently, I will plot/weed the tint and cut the backing away as much as I dare before handing it over to the installer. I was thinking that the installer would prefer the tint to be cut to shape which I believe I can achieve with the perf cut on my plotter. Is that the typical process or should I not be worried so much about it being cut to exact shape?

      Im in TX, plenty of of what you mentioned. While I do sit higher in an SUV, glare reduction is not improved much at all with what I have. My 80% is almost clear, not dark at all. With all tint, it adds a bit of reflectivity from the outside, which I notice makes it slightly harder to see from the outside looking in, in the form of a glare not darkness. At the end of the day, it's not permanent, it's only money!

      Boat window tinting tips

      The answer is to not heat that area too much so that you leave some slack in the film for when you get it to the inside. Also cut your pattern a little large so that you can trim a thread off the edges after shrinking to not have a furled edge. After you do a few of those you'll figure out how much to leave/trim to not have any light gaps. Also I'll leave a hardcard wrapped in a microfiber in the bottom overnight to collect water and keep pressure on the film while it dries. Sometimes you can take the top rail off the glass if the jackwagon boat builder didn't put too much pressure on the glass package when it was installed. If you pull the rail off of a tight package it's a pita to get back on, looking like it could crack the whole time. Congrats on getting it done. I've seen plenty that couldn't, which is why I price them like I do.

      Boat window tinting tips

      Thx everyone for the tips the install went fine, however i did run into a new problem on the main curve of the glass from thr outside the tint would lay flat on the big curve but when applying it seemed like there was too much tension and it would not stay down i ended up heating it up and flattening down but some of that area got overheated and warped a little, if you know how to tackle this problem please help me thank you!
