My favorite and easiest car are the newer altimas 1:10 to 1:30 other then that my time is 2hr top for most cars.

These cars I love....i worked at the dealership and was able to get a legal back half done in 15 minutes....but that's with everything preshrunk and cut out already....I would cut out 10 patterns at once and just knock them out....I was commission getting 25% percentage and a weekly gas card....and all the tools I could ever want for free!!!

Time ... is a matter of mind; if you don't mind, it doesn't matter.

 

Edit: Friggin' essential tremors leads to more and more edits for keyboard mis-strokes and OCD finds the need to correct a typo before moving on. What a way to post. :unsure:

If you are at 1.5 hrs and doing good clean work and not breaking shiz, you are doing great. I have worked with some great tinters in my day. All were pretty much 1.5-2hrs  for a average sedan or longer. Guy's that were much faster then that always did crap work. This is just from my experience. Not saying all faster guys do bad work.When I interview a installer and he leads with how fast he is, I know pretty much right out of the gate it is not going to work out.

 

Shoot, if you can do a good install in 3 hrs, don't smoke crack, show up on time, don't look like you crawled out of a gutter, have no baby mama drama,and can communicate better then a 3 year old, I would consider that win for your boss. :lol

It's true, there's a speed that is "too fast". There's one dude on youtube bragging he's the fastest, but his comments are shut off because it's such a sloppy install. When it comes to "fast and accurate" you have to find your own sweet spot, want it fast it won't be accurate, want it accurate it won't be fast.
