DrewTheTinter Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 So I was reading here in the forum & brought a question to my attention.. do certain window films show contamination or dust spots more than others?? I'm using Armolan/Sun Control window films right now and considering making the switch to EWF or another supplier. Main reason for asking is I keep getting contamination on rear window no matter how good I prep and my shrink is always just fine. Also been using the reverse roll method here lately..

DrewTheTinter Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 lack of experience tends to show more dust than others. I hear ya there! Lol only been tinting about 6 months.. have done probably 20ish cars & it seemed like I never really had a problem with contamination until I started the reverse roll. Now I tend to get more than acceptable.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gospeed3go Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 than just focus on technique, make sure your waters filtered and in a couple years youll be golden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewTheTinter Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Right on man. When you use filtered water do you mean by getting say "filtered water" from the dollar store in the 1 gallon jugs? Or when you put water in your tank use a coffee filter? I'm using a jr. Pump up impact sprayer.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pump up impact sprayer..You can use water from the dollar store, just make sure it's distilled. Other wise you can install a inline filter from your water source.

DrewTheTinter Posted August 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Right on.. anyone else have issues with reverse roll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard SCF STL Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 don't forget to clean your spray bottle as soap deposits can built up an cause white spots on your film. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big L Window Tinting Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Let me ask you something Drew, are you working mobile or at a shop? When working outdoors you will never have a 100% contamination free environment. Also do you inspect the film prior to installation? If it's the films fault there should be defects on the film.
