  1. Yup! I’ve had three do that to me through the years. Now I just cut around them. Also helps that I save a liner from one that I did and I use it to cut out the windshield strip to make installation go quicker with no worries about the mirror and bracket. Sorry it happened to you.
  2. Yesterday I had a customer bring his truck in to put tint on a new sliding back glass that he had to have replaced at the local GM car dealer because it was leaking water. The plastic cracked on the origional one which allowed water to come inside the truck. I had two used and recently purchased 21 and 22 GM and one Chevrolet pickups in here that I decided to look at closely and sure enough, they both showed signs of water leaking from the tops of the rear sliding back glasses. I even squirted water from the outside and discovered that the water easily ran down on the inside of the trucks. Just a heads up to maybe inform your customers who are unaware that their truck windows are leaking. The manufactures know they have an issue and admit that the plastic was inferior that was used to make the sliders but will not be issuing any recalls. That means it’s up to people to discover the leaks on their own and hopefully get them fixed if they are still under warranty. Pics below:
  3. Well, gotter done!! Don’t want to do another one again too soon. Practicing that two letter word…..N…..O……=NO!
  4. HA! HA! That crap had to go! But on a serious note, I cleaned all the old off and called it a day. Went home and contemplated my ways and came back this morning to finish it up. GOOD LAWD!! Been YEEEEARS since I’ve had to spice one together! Ugh!! Unfortunately, I’ve had many hatches fall on my head in these long 40 years. Mostly Camaros and TransAms. No fun and games there I tell ya! Part of why my neck is so jacked up? That and the fact I fell out of a 4X4 truck in 2001 and landed on my head nearly breaking my neck. Was supposed to have neck surgery in 2020 but not going near hospitals for now.
  5. 1986 Porsche 944 …. What was I thinking taking in a car I haven’t done in YEARS?!?!?!
  6. Yes, too picky on the fact that the film is not coving the ceramic coating all the way on the rear hatch. The thing is is there is no daylight. I for one do not like to lift the film and move it once it has been laid on the glass of a window with defrosters because it will leave ghost lines in the glue on the film. Now the door panel is not melted but appears to have had something put pressure on it an cause a dent. Could possibly come out after the sun warms it up for a few days and cause the contraction and expansion?? Or not. Did the tinter do it or was it already there? Who knows.
  7. Did this 1958 Chevy Apache with CTX 15% today. Came out super clean!😃
  8. This new Defender got the CTX treatment with a 35% on the front doors, 15% on the rear windows and an Air 80 on the windshield. This was kinda fun to do.
  9. Multiple?? Wow! That’s crazy! This factory tint package is awful in my opinion.
  10. Anyone work on one and have any problems with it? Looks easy to tint just wondering if there are any precautions noted on these things. Thanks in advance! One thing to note is the reflective glass on all sides and rear.
  11. So, I have new trucks coming in that are missing their “chips.” My question is, do any of you know where exactly the “chips” are made and or come from??
  12. I recall the SEMA 2016 show where nearly every truck was going big and bold with those huge honking grills and in my opinion that made them all look so alike that for me it made it hard to distinguish between them. But then they were also blowing up the brand names to be so stinking HUGE that the confusion was short lived.😂
  13. These times are definently different and unlike any other time I’ve known. If gas keeps going up folks will have less for the luxury of window film at least for a time. The length of that time is the big iffy part. I was hoping more tinters would chime in on this to get a feel of what’s going on and hear their strategies on surviving this cluster f….
