Here’s a GT3 RS with XR Plus 35

Here’s a GT3 RS with XR Plus 35

Just did my F10 M5 with Xpel XR Blue 80 on the windshield, XR plus 35 on the sides and rear, and XR Plus 70 on the moonroof. 

XR Plus. The clarity is awesome too

I’d say get it redone elsewhere. They’re so many inconsistencies and sloppiness. That is just who they are. 

Hate cutting visor strips. Main reason why I’m getting a plotter. I have a 60” roll of 5%. I just pull out what I need and cut on the film handler 

Old school Makitas were the best, new ones are the worst. I found that the Matcos heat gun come close to the old Makitas. You’ll get 1 1/2 years out of it, and it gets really hot 

I love this product. Never had a problem pulling it out. Just make sure you pull upwards towards the ceiling. On Mercedes CLAs, this is almost a must on the back glass 

I did the same. You can make the scratched window look new again. Just soak it in alcohol and scrape off all the Ir coating. So now I have a driver window sitting in my shop. 

A good tip is to clean your peel board and the film. I like to wipe the edge of the film 6-8 inches    I normally don’t clean the middle of the film. When getting to the end of rolling, let the last 8 inches hang and relax, then slowly slip the liner out. Watch it closely. If it touches the glass, shoot that area down with water. Then finish install. 

It will save time.

I work on a lot of Tesla’s.  I have about 20 model 3’s under my belt. When I work on a Model 3, the first thing I do is the windshield. I lock up all the doors, and then go into the car and shut off the car under Security and Settings. After Tinting the windshield I finish off the rest of the car.  This allows for all water to pass through and dry on the windshield. Haven’t had an issue after using these steps. My first 4-5 model 3’s resulted in “ghosting” on the screen before realizing what needed to be done.
