Anyone offer Classes in Melbourne?

Hi , im new to tinting and at risk of being flamed as a DIY.... I was wondering if anyone actually offered teaching here in Melbourne? I want to do it correctly and not be a thorn in anyone's side.

I have done a few cars already (friends) and want to fine tune.

Hey WAM,

This is a tricky question.. You are asking Tinters in Melbourne to teach you the skills that they have acquired over a number of years, so you can be good enough to take the tinting work in their area? In a effort to help.. I hear that ProTinting in Melbourne are offering courses, but I think they teach you with Korean auto film. I guess if you can use that stuff, you can use anything. I guess many of us learnt the old fashion way, pulling trims, cleaning glass, and sweeping floors. But now there's a 2 week course. Good luck WAM, are you going to concentrate full time on tinting? Or just something to offer in the Auto Mods shop?

Just trying to converse.. I hear we don't do it enough. Maybe it just doesn't happen on TD enough, it happens everyday around my way.

Absolutely comes with a certificate. Seen 'em hanging on many restroom walls.

Hey WAM..

Maybe if you offered window tinting as an option in your shop, and ask for a flat rate from a local tinter, then add your price onto that for organizing the work and supplying the space. (or just do it at the same price) Then just explain to the tinter that you are looking to learn tinting, so as to become good enough to get a professional finish, and could you pay him an addition to come in and run through some pointers. (Maybe a couple of JD's will do the trick?) And if you ever get to a point you have 3 or 4 cars to do in a day and need a hand, then you will call him up to come in for some folded stuff. Just a thought... I have a local stereo place that has a full time tinter in his shop, that seems to work very well for them. And the tinter can now do stereo installs etc...

Hey Dev... JWF was doing 2 week courses for quite a while... The problem is that it should have been 2 weeks for learning to tint... And 1 week for ethics... I know one guy that aced the course... He is changing truck tyres now...

You should offer training courses Dev!!! You would be the ideal person... Lets say $1000 each per week, for 3 weeks, 10 trainees per course.. $$$$ Ching!

To fill the classes.. Just offer a free hot lap in the big red car to each applicant that can do a perfect install on a golf in under 35 minutes at the end of the course....

WAM, I know a guy who has been tinting cars for 3 months, and he is far better than another tinter I know that has been tinting for 3 years. The difference is that the guy that has been tinting for 3 months takes complete pride in the finished result, even if it takes 10 goes, and the tinter of 3 years just wants to get it done and go. That I believe is the difference. If you believe that is you, then I would be prepared to help you. But ethics is a big part... Also, I go on and on about M1.
