Sorry buddy but to say you shrunk and applied a mark 5 golf rear screen in 30 minutes :lol2:lol2 nooooooooo chance these things are a nightmare if anybody is honest will agree with me

I tend to do everything in one piece clios 206 etc etc but these I dont even attempt in one (which I can do ) just the fact I can spend 2 - 3 hours on the rear screen alone in one piece and doing it in two pieces about 45 mins so to say you done it in half an hour is crap

I dont know how much experience, you guys have, but today I did a 2002 golf 2 door and the back window takes between 20--30 minutes all the time . there is nothing hard about it , unless you have an aftermarket window with an odd curve to it .. I rate that window in a very different category on the hatchback models ,, if you get a hard back window about the same size try the honda civic 2 door hatchback model 1992---94 with the wiper.shocks and cables on the way and then you will be talking dont be a wimp about an easy window like the golf.... good luck and keep trying,,,,java script:emoticon(':duck')

............ tintboy ,I think you are getting out of hand by thinking by using profanity or initials suggesting that , that it will make you win a debate ,or make you a hero for whoever may be reading this postings ... , I may not be very good at the computer keyboard trying to explain facts, but I spend a real good time of the day with the the tools and the heat gun perfectioning techniques and talking to customers and everybody gets really happy, I do not use profanity in my daily activities, neither with my customers , to me professionalism its what drives me go further.. And to explain my point . I Deal with all the cars you just mentioned, and not only that, boats , motor homes, exotic cars like bentleys, ferraris, and lotus and maseratis,to name a few besides all the classic cars and hot rods I done .I seen it all.... from the geo metros to the chevy beretta with no defroster to the ugly cutlass supreme 4door 1991 .......... and . with all the competition out here and all the ego demonstrated at the time of the yellow pages by another shops, it is sad they can not back up their claims. I'm not saying I 'm the best , nor I'm looking for supporters in a website nor I need to go to those silly tintoff competitions to get a worthless trophy saying I'm the best .......I let that to the customer to decide what services provided to them are more satisfactory to their expectations, I hope you are not falling in the attitude of the new generation x by promoting insulting approach on well reputable enterprises and try to undermine somebody else talents and abilities , with all due respect I can tell you , I experience countless rolls of materials and quite a few numbers of cars . you were just a little 8 year old boy when I start tinting professionally, I Speak of experience not about something I just dreamed or have inside my mind, I apologize if I make you fell bad, It was not my Intention, I was just joking and trying to break some ice ......................and for the honda I do not struggle, it is just dirty and time consuming taking the whole thing apart. and for the newer cars they are just technical, only for the very first time , then comes routine ,it is not the porsche 944 with the ugly wiper on the back window of the past , ( I assumed you done those) you will be glad of doing golfs gti 2005 all day long ,,, thank you....... can we still be polite and respectful? java script:emoticon(':beer')

      I forgot to ask about Low Angle Haze (LAH), do any particular films have less LAH than others? Is LAH so much of a problem that it's better to avoid ceramic tint and go another kind of tint like SunTek CXP (CarbonXP) CXP

      At What VLT% does visibility start being impacted

      In the jurisdiction in which I live, we are allowed to have 35% in front and 20% in rear. I'm wondering @ what VLT% does the driver's visibility in adverse conditions like night time driving, storms, cloudy weather, fog, floods, etc., start being impacted? Front side windows: 45.00% 43.00% 42.00% 41.00% 40.00% 39.00% 38.00% 37.00% 36.00% 35.00% Rear Side Windows: 38.00% 33.00% 32.00% 31.00% 30.00% 29.00% 27.00% 25.00% 23.00% 22.00% 21.00% 20.00% Rear Window: 45.00% 43.00% 42.00% 41.00% 40.00% 39.00% 38.00% 37.00% 36.00% 35.00% 33.00% 32.00% 31.00% 30.00% 29.00% 27.00% 25.00% 23.00% 22.00% 21.00% 20.00%

      If the only tinter providing MEP Films is a mobile tinter that uses more water than normal and I don't have a garage to tint in then would you avoid the tinter and opt for a tinter with a workshop that uses either: SunTek CIR (CeramicIR) CIR SunTek CXP (CarbonXP) CXP SunTek Evolve Solargard VTX Pro Premium Ceramic (by the way, does anyone know where the Technical Spec sheet is, I tried finding to no avail) XPEL Prime XR Black Johnson Window Films InsulatIR IR GLOBAL WINDOW FILMS QDP CERAMIC FILMS Global OZ Window Films CBXtreme Ceramic

      Why is my film sliding around in GCC Jag V Plotter?

      Your film might be sliding around in your GCC Jaguar V plotter due to several reasons. Firstly, ensure that the film is loaded correctly and securely in the plotter's rollers. Check for any debris or dirt on the rollers that could cause slippage. Additionally, ensure that the plotter's settings, such as speed and pressure, are appropriate for the type of film you're using. Using a tackier or adhesive-backed film can also help prevent sliding. Lastly, make sure the plotter's firmware and software are up to date to avoid any compatibility issues that could lead to film slipping during plotting.

      Automotive Tint Comparison

      MEP Films distribute Llumar in Australia. I for one have been using Llumar since 1984 and have very rarely had or seen any issues with quality and that is why the brand is my go-to the majority of the time. Sun Tek have some good automotive films that I like, but other than those, I am strictly a Llumar user. BTW Eastman Chemical own both Llumar and SunTek so I imagine their film technology may be somewhat shared.

      Better shop in Europe to buy Films and Tools?

      Hi guys, Im new here and learning how to tint… I live in Europe and to find tools and tints to buy here is very difficult. I just got some tools and tint on this website: tintwrap.eu This website was the only one I could find some felt squeegee and high quality films with the best price to deliver in Europe without ripping me off. the delivery was quick, about 2 days. and the material was high quality as well. Do you guys have any other websites suggestions? Thanks

      Paint Protection Film (PPF) is it needed or worth it?

      I've never had PPF done before and never had issues with the paint on the car looking bad. I usually park in the garage and have had Kia Casa White - Solid on my Sportage since 2015 and no noticeable issues with the paintwork. The new car is Glacier White - Solid I've been told that PPF is beneficial, but very few people I know have actually opted to get it for their cars. I've been told there are many benefits such as: No need to ever wax or use sealant after the coat is applied Stops the paint fading Makes cars super easy to wash Prevents Acid Etching from animal contaminants, hard water spots, tree sap UV Rays Acid Rain (although I don't think I've ever seen acid rain) Repels Water & Grime Saves Water Will not wash off, crack or peel Non-abrasive Self-Healing Properties: repair minor surface scratches and swirl marks on their own when exposed to heat. So is this all simply marketing spin to provide another product to the market without any noticeable benefits? Does the average family car really need PPF or is this more the reserve of the show car, tuner set, car aficionado niche?

      Cracked glass

      Follow up: Attached is the performance data for Johnson's Resi/Comm window films and if you look to the bottom you'll see DN50 has a solar absorption of 39%, which is well below the threshold of concern which is generally accepted as 50% absorption (with no shadow). With a straight line shading from the roof this does increase the risk, which is usually low for straight line shading compared to other types. I've also attached a pdf of Johnson's film-to-glass chart which is used to determine how safe a film is. The thicker the glass the higher the risk; you say 6mm tempered and 4mm is the cracked one (interior pane). The question now is what compass direction do these panels face? In the end, I'll just suggest you hook back up with the person that installed it and get his input. He had to have been comfortable suggesting that film. I still believe it's a one off cracked panel and the rest will be fine. It takes 2 seasonal cycles to know for sure. Truly your call as to whether or not to replace with something lighter such as DN60. Here's more helpful info that helps you question the glass type on the interior; is it plate or is it heat-strengthened (HS). I believe it is plate and not tempered or HS. Why? Plate glass with suffer thermal shock if the edge temperature is different than the center of the glass by 50 degrees F. Heat strengthened requires 100 degree F difference, and Tempered requires 200 degree F difference. Ryker chimed in and that stimulated further review. Good Luck with this. johnsonFilmToGlass_2021.pdf

      Cracked glass

      Whatever that glass is that cracked it is NOT tempered. DN 50 is pretty high solar absorption and your saying shadows too so you probably need a more reflective film.
