Like with most things- Pick your favorite most experienced installer and go with his/her recommendation. An excellent installer is more important than splitting hairs over specific film 👍 However, in the same breath, I will tell you I am only familiar with one of those films (so I am not 100% sure if the three are equal enough for that analogy), the SunTek SYDS. We used SunTek for nearly a decade. I liked the SYDS film a lot, used it often, never had a single complaint or failure to this day. I personally have not one bad word to say about SYDS.

Wow there are so many options now-a-days! Is bluemax and orangecrush still the go to standard even for (2mil solar) flat glass film? I am looking to get a NEW 8” HANDLE and figured I’d make sure I wasn’t missing out on anything 😆 I don’t have time to test them all anymore ha.

You no longer need to remove the rear spoiler or wiper hardware on the new body style hatchbacks. Much easier.

All of there flat glass films are ROCK solid

Why not just remove the mirror, wrap the door, and reinstall the mirror?

I think I bought a Steinel HL1820. And I love it so much

Do not use suction cup mounts on tint 👍 I wouldn't stick anything to it for that matter. But suction cups are a no no. And if you did use it, and it did harm the tint- the manufacturer (and likely installer for that matter) would not warranty it. That would fall into a you hurting it type of category. Good save asking before doing it though! Enjoy the new tint, thats a super nice film.

I always go with a hiking shoe. Like Keen or Merril

I assume there was a fourth flame and I just didn’t look hard enough to notice it. I was kind of at a funny angle, the sun was right behind me and I was talking to the customer at the same time ha.

This Hass to be one of the most interesting, tricky, and useful things I have ever learned on this website! Thank you for the tip! I tested it this morning on a tempered double pane insulated unit. Holding the lighter on the outside I saw three flames in the reflection, the middle flame was clearly a different darker red than the other two. Probably exactly what you were referring to then, an indication that one of the inner faces has something on it?

You realize this is a 7 year old thread? We solved the problem 2,500 days ago 😄

Does anyone have any recommendations for a LowE detector that works with most commercial glass thicknesses?

I have the dewalt one, and it is no where near enough for what it takes to shrink a back window. Stick to corded

If you do it right removing the UV coating should use about this many blades 😔
