Should i keep the key on while tinting?
pbalentine replied to Zootiestintz's topic in General Discussion
You’ll want to turn it off between windows. If theres a panel to remove I do that first before turning ignition on, unless its a quick pull of a seal. Then I clean, install, roll glass up and turn it off. -

How to double check your Tint?
pbalentine replied to Indy Tint's topic in Tinting Tips and Techniques
Right after install I clean inside & outside and press any contamination dots down I see from the inside and small creases. If any crease doesnt lay down I leave it dry and get it later. Once job is finished I check again from the outside real quick. -
Only thins ones Ive seen are the gray Unger brand from Home Depot. Of all the micro fibers Ive used none compare to the ones from Perfect Clean.

In the 2nd photo the far left top corner is down flat, but there are a few fingers on the side if it. Shrinking more evenly will make it easier, so you dont end up with a fingers like that. Also, If you smooth the film flat while shrinking, try not to smooth so far day to allow the film to float and shrink easier. Edit: Try a glove to smooth. The hard card makes the film stick to much.

Don’t dust off the tool pouch if you have one. Just trash it like I did. Best tool improvement yet.

Following up with an adhesive remover is a must for BG removal.

If the install looks good you might want to leave it. Its hard avoiding adhesive with removals and I doubt they’re gonna give you a perfect removal and a refund.

Id add a hundo or so for the suicide doors. Just dont like anything thats not easy now.

Nice, I got Classic Black on a car going on 9 years and It still looks great.

I would double your price for a larger SUV on that one.

Trouble tinting Tesla Model 3’s rear window, please help!
pbalentine replied to eclipsisNA's topic in General Discussion
These cars are put together worst than anything. Did a model Y that had a huge piece of debris under the paint. Never seen that along with a other shit. Just two piece if and send it away for good! -

Roll window up, solved!

I would just leave it. If you have it removed then you might have adhesive left over, which would look worse. I rarely will redo a back window I certain models.

What's The Best Way To Tint Side Windows With Weather Shields?
pbalentine replied to a topic in General Discussion
I hate the looks those...just worthless. I’ll offer to take them off, but they can deal with putting them back on. -

You can apply film over the Visor strip, but you’re gonna see a line where the film for the windshield over laps the visor. Not horrible looking but won’t look as clean.
