Yes! I quit using venture a few months ago. Used to brag about the product all the time, but have had nothing but problems with it lately.

so what are you using now? and have you had the same problems? is there anything that will take the streaks out?

Alot of times when film is stained by pure alcohol, you can use your heat gun to "cure" out the marks. Make sure to use direct heat and be careful! The film can be burned if you don't watch out. Good luck with your repair!

LOL! Yeah, I had one of my office guys set the profile up and I was gonna change it to reflect my actual age and experience. However, you must make 10 posts to be able to change anything in your profile. I'm 35 and have 11 years experience. My PPF business partner also has almost 13 years experience. Both of us are the original installers and designers from a company called StonGard. We have operated Accutint Bellevue since 2003. Hope that makes a little more sense. Have a good one!

StonGard? Hope you never had to use your health insurance! And by the way, using baby shampoo as a slip solution is not cheating. Only helicopter pilots think that way. :lol2

      IR or UV Coating on glass.

      The coating can be removed by "dry scraping" with stainless single edge razor blades, but it is very time consuming and tedious. The coating comes off like a super fine powder. If done correctly there is no damage to the glass and you can tint it just fine after a thorough cleaning. I scraped the drivers door clean after making the mistake of scratching the coating but I did not scrape the passenger side. After tinting you could not tell the difference between the two.

      IR or UV Coating on glass.

      Sure looks like auto glass technology is advancing. I remember the coating on Lexus and some Toyota models could be removed with a glass polish. It took some effort to get to the glass itself and that was an anti-fog coating technology. This IR/UV coating is looking like it is more robust. I wouldn't want to be the one experimenting with whatever product to attempt removal of it. The UV rating is 99%+ reduction, but they limit what they say about IR performance to: Mitigates sense of intense heat on the skin ... Controls rising cabin temperatures. The link is to a company that apparently is deep into providing glass with this coating and they certainly limit info. Take a look for yourself. This appears to be something that could/would expand to more brands/models. It sure is going to put a new slant on selling film and installing film to cars. https://www.cgc-jp.com/products/search_category/automotiveglass/ircut.html

      We run our hand across the glass since you can feel the coating. Basically, if it does not feel like normal glass, assume it has the coating.

      IR or UV Coating on glass.

      I'm sure you are aware of this problem - that Lexus and some other manufacturers decided to install this super sensitive coating to the inside of the glass, that cannot be razor scraped at all. I had one a couple years ago and I had no idea what I was getting into you, and figured it was a one-time deal where the manufacturers realized what a stupid idea it was, & wouldn't do it anymore. Well, a week ago I had a brand new all electric Subaru SUV. It had the exact same thing on the front 2 windows - IR or UV coating that cannot be touched ! Didn't know about it & gouged the coating with my razor blade ... SO ... Does anyone know or have access to some sort of a complete list of these vehicles? I was informed by my sales rep that anyone using the core software from Llumar gets these notes about potential problems with the software - I don't understand why all Llumar dealers don't get the same updates. I was completely unaware of this and it's going to cost me quite a bit of money to fix it because even though I didn't do anything wrong, it did happen at my shop!

      Mutoh Plotter

      Anyone used/using a Mutoh VC-2 plotter for tint? I have one I am using for vinyl and want to buy a second cutter just for tint. I am familiar with the Mutoh and would like to keep my equipment the same if possible. Just looking for some recommendations on how it does. Thanks!

      Reveal Molding/Belt Moldings

      If you have that many, trace a pattern and send it to DAP. They are super quick about scanning and uploading patterns. I have done this with a few custom patterns.
