Film handler/dispenser

[GusTheTinter]

Wondering how many shops use a film handler or some sort of film dispenser.

And how many just unroll the film right on to the vehicle.

I started using a wall mounted handler years ago, and was amazed how much film I saved by doing so.

Love the film handler. Absolutely despise cutting out of the box now.

I measure the car/truck door and roll onto a wall mounted glass, by hand straight from the roll.  I roll across the backglass and trim straight from the roll also.  I own a film handler but never use it and don't do enough flat glass to warrant getting it out.

 I'm pretty much the same with a little tweak you'd have to see my set up

will the film handler work on vinyl and ppf as well?

Pull up out of box on floor.

We have a film handler, but still cut out of the box for automotive.

I made a simple one years ago to handle 72"

And have made a few for other Tinters in my local area.

Never considered using a film handler for auto use, but use it for every flat glass job i do.  It saves thousands over cutting out of the box, and since I value my time on the job site, I cut all my film the night before, label it, and bring the cut film to the job.  I contract now, and Im worth a lot of money bc I save the owner thousands using the film handler, and I'm knocking out 500 sq ft resi jobs by 3 or 4pm in most cases.  I win at life.
