MY BAD, I assumed that you allready had a plotter and it did not hit me until after I posted. You are way better off going with a local graphic supply outlet that sells plotters direct. They are close and can service your machine (in person) if you have any hardware issues rather than some software guy 1000 miles away (on the phone). Roland & Graphtec are always a solid choice while many other cheap cheap plotters will most likely leave you frustrated.

We use Tintronix in my shop and went from 5-6 cars a day max a few years ago to 15-20 cars a day. It would not be possable for us without Tintronix

Regards,

Paul

The latest profiles are installed to your hard drive when Tintronix is installed you can make changes to them if you really wanted to for some reason and save them to your hard drive. You do not require an internet connection but it really is nice with the profile plugin that comes with Tintronix that allows you to open patterns from a simple drop down menu with makes & models and opens directly from the server.

I guess Accutint tech is what all the pattern makers use to digitize patterns for plotter use. My guess is that tinttronix is made up from patterns borrowed from all the other computer cut systems they were using over the years :dunno

Why would you take something that is not accurate, regurgitate it and try to sell it as accurate? The proper way of thinking in my opinion would be to create something superior and be proud of it. Tintronix patterns have all been made from vehicles by hand by Tintronix tested over and over again which is just a small part of the process that is ACCUCUT TECHNOLOGY that no other software can claim. Best of luck with that stealing other people stuff mentality though :dunno

      Stratos 70 on windshield, what is this?

      Captain Obvious has two cents err senses to share: 1) The film should be removed and replaced, because it appears to have adhesive blemishes that shouldn't be there, and 2) The film should be reviewed/inspected once taken from the roll to avoid losing time and resources due to manufacturing issues. Little pieces not so much, but back glass and windscreen pieces ... definitely.

      Olfa blades are not as sharp as they used to be

      I switched so long ago... first to KDS but they went away. NT are great though. I use a piece of white strapping material as a cutting buffer between the blade and glass. Some use a button but I didn't like the feel..

      Headlight Taillight Vinyl question... (Looking for CHROME)

      I'm looking for a chrome/mirror wrap for headlights/taillights. No NEOchrome, just a mirror or chrome appearance. Looking to spice up a project. Looking for transparent so can see lights thru film. I have looked and can't find what fits the bill. Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

      Stratos 70 on windshield, what is this?

      I can't win with getting tint decent on the windshield. I had 3M on my F150 done twice and still has major defects. Recently did Stratos twice on my F350 and I see this granular spotted, texture pattern on the tint. It's super obvious in the corner here but also right in my view when driving. It's honestly hard to point out and show someone but when your driving and stuff is moving behind the windshield, it becomes more obvious. The lighting also matters. The first time I did the windshield, I had a two foot line on the windshield. Thinking it was tint, they removed the tint and it was apparently a defect in the Ford windshield. An issue between the laminated glass layers caused this big defect. So they removed the tint, I had Ford replace the windshield on a 2024 F350 but when the tint shop removed the tint, they made a bunch of micro scratches in the front windshield, probably from scrapping the glue off. I told them but I didn't care since Ford was replacing the windshield anyways. So if basically I'm trying to figure out what this texture stuff is and if I should have them replace or remove it. Replacing it might just have different issues but also afraid they will scratch the windshield.

      I would direct you to Express Window Films web site. They sell Global brand after setting up an account with them. They are reasonably priced and they do partials. Can't go wrong with Global.

      Need some help

      Never overlook the condition of the floor. Back when I did install, I used to mist the floor between the vehicle and the peel board. This is done between misting the window and walking toward the peel board to mist the pattern liner, peel liner and spray adhesive for install. Tacks any dust for the duration of each pattern install, so repeat each time a pattern is going to be installed.
