nothing wrong with two pieceing. If your good at it you can tell your customer it's a one piece. Sometimes it's faster to do a two piece than dealing with a one piece headache. ex:(beetle,eclipse). I can two piece a beetle in half the time it takes to shrink it in a one piece, Customers don't know the difference

:hmmm

One-piece = fuel for an ego... 2, 3, + pieces on the defrost and not seen = humbling talent... :beer

  Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield
  
  What is your goal for the FWS? How much risk are you willing to take? I did not care to ask to meter it. Going darker can make it hard to see something on the highway when driving at night like, debris, puddles(hydroplane), potholes, I don't know about you but I drive fast and I need to see the road. I just wanted solar energy rejection, and UV protection for leather interior.

  Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield
  
  Yeah I hear you. That’s why I’m avoiding the 50%. Curious did they meter it after installing it? Wondering what it comes back at.

  Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield
  
  I have Air80 on FWS, 35% on 4 doors, 5% on 3rd row and hatch. I am happy rejecting some solar energy and having no visibility issues at night. The 15% you have will make the FWS look darker I assume. During the day it would not be a big difference, only at night. I know a FWS ticket is $$, I didn't want to give a bored cop an excuse to pull me over. Or have the chance to notice the FWS while being pulled over for something else. The less I talk to cops the better.

  Looking for mobile installer in phx and surrounding area's
  
  Looking to set up a mobile window tinting partnership. Any installers already doing mobile jobs I'd like to speak with you and see if we can't work out a deal. I would get jobs in to be done by you. Adding to your work flow by increasing your installs through out the year. Thank you, Justin (602) 770-6910

  Can this be fixed? Wondering how this happens
  
  Any impact from polishing, if the mar responds to polishing, would result in no or little visible trace. Anyone experienced in buffing glass will likely say, no guarantees; unless they've experienced the same mar on glass.

  Boat window tinting tips
  
  I use(d) these that are readily available through grocery stores; on installs that should not have a blade running across their surface. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Scotch-Brite-3PK-Dobie-Cleaning-Pad/580762256?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=101033794&gclsrc=aw.ds&&adid=22222222227580762256_101033794_160178497084_20981201920&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=c&wl3=689850595863&wl4=pla-2274697737319&wl5=9008682&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=255470249&wl11=online&wl12=580762256_101033794&veh=sem&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIyo335LbOhQMVo0tHAR1HpQC8EAQYASABEgKydfD_BwE Need to know whether the boat has glass or does it have plexiglass (acrylic) or Lexan (poly-carbonate). Glass is not worrisome, the other two are. Plexi will blister from out-gassing in no time at all, whereby, Poly-carbonate is a crap shoot as to when and how serious, if any, blistering of film occurs. Both Plexi and Ploy may also be difficult to remove, if the need arises down the road mainly getting the adhesive of without damaging the surface. Both should not be warranted given the aforementioned potentials and these conditions should be discussed with the owner.

  We've seen it on new vehicles, polishing it should remove it. Definitely not the shops fault.

  no, aside from window cleaner I’ve not tried anything else yet like goo gone, a razerblade, etc… I’ll probably leave that to the detailer. question: when polishing glass will it impact the visibility after? I guess I’m now weighing between having them try to correct it or just leaving it be.
