Trentxxn Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Beginner Having a few issues. Tint is tacking too fast, having lots of trouble after i lock top down and roll the window up, cant get tint to slide into the sides and bottom. (Acura tsx 2011) Using distilled water, j&j, and maxpro maxjet pro film. Also, Ive heard of people using the lil chizler but ive never had any success with it, im not sure how to use it or how to heat spots or contamination out. Also in the pics i will attach, there are alot of smudges behind my tint, cant figure out why. Is it because its taking me so long to get the sides tucked that my solution is drying and leaving smudging? You can really see it from the inside with the light behind it, looks awful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewy Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Stop using J&J, go to the dollar store and buy the cookie monster or big Bird baby shampoo. Use more solution so that it can slide better. The picture is a max pro product.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trentxxn Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 I plan to upgrade films as soon as i get better, but until then i need to continue using cheaper stuff. I just cant tell if its me not knowing what im doing, or if its my solution or tint, or if a combination of all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slick Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 the "smudges" you are talking about will go away when it dries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not regular j&j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewy Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 J&J has extra ingredients that you don't need and causes the gunk. With off brand shampoo, it's less. You notice how when you clean your bottle there is a thick slime in your tube? () Well the off brand shampoo doesn't have that. I like the cookie monster one because the smell is not as strong as the big bird. The big Bird gives me headaches. The big plus, is that it is cheaper.

Slick Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 And I have used J&J for over 25 years now and see no issues with it. Just takes a bit of time to figure out the right amount to add to your sprayer to get the slip you want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trentxxn Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 I feel like im using an unnecessary amount of j&j and its still wanting to tack down too early though, and im having lots of issues getting the sides to tuck in correctly without creasing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
