Haha, a few familiar "handles"

Hope is well with the site ! Lots has changed here I'm sure [emoji4]. One of the old school original members here ready to make regular appearances to share and receive knowledge as in the past, now that I e finally hired and have a great employee after working in solitude after a couple of decades in the tinting business, it frees me up to mingle a bit more . Greetings to the old schoolers still here and greetings to the newer members [emoji4][emoji106]

A special shoutout to Ric ! [emoji4][emoji106]

Interesting read [emoji106]

As I say , I did lots of these when they were new from the dealership. If your going to do 2 pieces, use a 24" roll and overlap on the 7th heater wire from the bottom . Don't forget to cartwheel the second pull off the 24" roll so the grain of the tint doesn't look different than the first peice

TNTLady, you are an inspiration to all male and delay tinters be them newbies ir veteran tinters .
Keep on keeping on and May you be blessed with abundance !

Can't wait to try it . Hopefully it's sold in Canada as well

Is this stuff available in Canada ?

This might seem like overkill but what I did is I ordered a new back window from Honda that way I can shrink on the stand and then install.  We've already done about 6 so far this year so its gonna be a popular car.  Im charging every customer an extra 40.00 dollars above the average price to make up for the price of the window.  Im already a third of the way there.  I realize this is isn't the best answer if you are doing low volume but this is definitely a huge time saver.

I thought I would add a couple of extra tips on this car that came to mind since I just got tinting 2 of them.

-Seals on doors easily remove out once removing 1 torx bolt per door hidden underneath the trim.
-After replacing the 3rd brake light , bend the metal tabs down slightly to make it easier to slide back into place.
- double up your mounting concentrate for bg as it floats into place much better.
- remove the side pillars for the bg foe easier installation. They come out quite easy and it's worth it for the extra wiggle room .

Did you end up taking the crap off the back hatch Ron ? I personally haven't run across one yet

If I remember , I think it was $25 for shipping last time I did

I would need a complete address to find out how much. Last time I did this last year, shipping was a killer especially if shipping to the states from Canada because of the size of box ( unless you want me to fold the tint up )

I have in stock 24" of 18% Platinum Plus . A full box and about 25' on another roll.

I have about 30' of 35% as well

I believe I can help you out. I'll check out the shop inventory tomorrow and get back to you. I I don't , just give me a reminder nudge as its a busy day tomorrow [emoji106]

I'm an older Tinter and did my 1st one of these yesterday . Easy easy easy . Don't get the issues. Back panel pulls all off in seconds. All side doors , seals pull out in seconds :

Sorry for your familiy's loss Fox [emoji17]

Hope this helps , I just talked to the owner of TintTek . Keep in mind it's Saturday night . They will be open Monday morning to help you.

He said your not locked out . He'll take care of it for you. Hope this helps a bit . Here's his reply :

"

Thanks Brad. I'm out of town and will look after that Monday. It's not a lock out issue he has. I believe his windows did an update maybe last night unexpectedly and there for the Flexi side of the software doesn't work."

So hold on till Monday [emoji106]

Many satisfied customers over the years , sorry to hear your having so many issues so early in the relationship with them . Talk to them and see what's up .

All the best to the family

Too funny, I just got finished doing the exact same car for the first time [emoji106]

Don't forget to overcompensate the distance away from the rear defrost . You'll be surprised when you lay it up on the inside of the glass how much closer it will get to the defrost bar. A pain if you have to cut extra out after the fact. I use to tint lots of these in the day when they were new from the dealership. agreed with heating the dovetail and do yourself a favour and sand the black lines for a bit better bond

I am to old to want to move quicker. 1.5 to 2 hours in a 4 door car, all sides and back, is fast enough for me.
