HI GUYS; SO I TINTED A S60 YESTERDAY REAR WINDOW EASY I WISH ALL REAR WINDOWS WERE THAT WAY. SIDE WINDOWS SUCK THOUGH.

I HAD TO FIGURE A WAY TO REMOVE PANELS I FIND SOMEWHAT EASIER THAN PULLING THE FELT. SO THAT WAS DONE I EVEN TOOK PICTURES FOR NEW COMMERS. LIKE ME

BUT I HAVE A QUESTION FOR YOU GUYS THAT HAVE MASTERED THIS(MUCH RESPECTED): :spit

1.- DO YOU SHRINK THE FILM ON SIDE WINDOWS( TRIED IT BUT WHEN INSTALLING THEM CREASED A BIT ON THE LOWER MIDDLE. THAN DID ONE OF THE THREE WITH OUT SHRINKING AND CAME OUT PRETTY GOOD NOW IM WONDERING IF THAT WAS JUST LUCK?

  I created an account just to respond here. I'm not a "tinter" or whatever yall may call yourselves but I came across this product and thought that it looked pretty cool and something I could do myself. I ordered from Lazeway and spent like $150 for two packages. The product is from China although they claim all this America stuff on the website. All i received was two simple rolls of tint, nothing special. I was totally scammed and now I'm looking all over the internet for anyone talking about this product to let them know. Dont buy from them.

  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.

  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!
