heat shrinking

[Guest crsalyn]

About how long should it take to shrink the tint for a back glass and what is the best kind of heat gun to use or what is the best range of temperature

[Guest willie]

dude

everybodies time is going to be different based on film and experience

there is no universal time for how long it should take to shrink

the same goes for the heat gun -different films -equal different heat

or dudette -its tough to tell anymore

[Guest crsalyn]

should it be an all day thing so do I need to be careful to not get it too hot

[Guest Beeline]

should only take minutes, time will tell.

Going from the craftsman 1200F to the wagner 1000F improved my shrinking ability.

I posted a thread on this a couple weeks ago asking how fast everyone does a common car like a dodge neon. Answers ranged from 5 minutes to me taking the longest at 45 minutes.

For what it's worth, I have an old Wagner heat gun that supposedly goes to 1100*. I doubt it's that hot anymore.

The film is I use is Solar Gard HP ranging from 6-32.

Milwaukee heat gun...... on high all the time....Obviously,your time is also going to depend on the vehicle that you are shrinkin'....
