ford Ka back glass


Recommended Posts

how can it be the film? I used solar guard before with no problems, then moved to one provided by vision films, before moving to sun pro, and I never had problems with sun pro at all. When I got the signum I tried three kinds of tint, and messed em all up :boogie

just tried the Ka today with solarguard and sunpro.

Im sure as you say its gotta be down to trying a new method rather than a new supplier? I think its early days to be cursing my materials before questioning my own capabilities surely?

oh and in five years I been doin it as a hobby just january I started my business and I only wet shrink.

So yes five years and im askin cos im sure you lot are more experienced than I am??

Lets start by someone explaining the soap method to me please?? (tried dry and hate it so far lol).

what soap is best.?

do I still use "H" anchor?

Does soap have to be dry before the shrink starts?

cheers so far for all you advice by the way, proper pulling hair out here.

Ivory soap works fine.

A horizontal anchor is fine, no need for H.
