Holy Jesus all the joining of ppf, wavy cut lines, hanging film, lifting edges?
We understand nobody is perfect but having to join pieces on a rocker panel that should be one piece is just plain cheap and ghetto.
Yes the lifting edges and dirt happens sometimes but it shouldn't be on everything. Anyone that pays me that much should expect the best service and installs. Not scraps to puzzle together a rocker panel

how about the software lol give it up to us tint dudes haha
-
i'm gonna look for this in alberta
-
Yes there were some shops that have been testing for a long time. I think t&t Tinting was one of them

I'm pretty excited to put the Stratos on my car as well
-
sweet! i will try this trick, will it work on most vehicles?
-
what film are you currently using right now? i'm guessing Lulu since you got precision cut.
-
the film vinyl designs is pretty good. The window tint patterns are real good, Paint protections ok, never comparable to DAP.
The biggest reason i like FVD more then precision cut is because FVD offers smoother lines, less nodes. The precision cut pattern is filled and saturated with extra useless nodes. The blade has to keep lifting and readjusting, going back and fourth. by the end of it u got alot of rough edges on the pattern.

So i ordered these heat guns because i couldn't find the craftman or milwaukee heatguns i usually use, tried out the dewalt heat guns didn't like them too much.
So i ordered 3 different models from amazon but really needed another heat gun fast ,figured out that Home Depot had loads of them in stock, so i bought one of the Wagner furno heat gun it was like $22+tax its light weight heats up good with the right amount air flow, nothing like those old school wagner heat guns i remember, and for $22 defenitely recommend you guys try them out, i did receive the other Wagner Furno Model 500, 700 i think , the 500 has two different air speeds and 5 different heat settings, the 700 has 5 different air speeds like over 5 different heat settings can't remember and both are digital displays, the 500 was $60, and the 700 was like $70 from what i remember, But the wagner furno 300 @ $22 i like the most it has 2 settings and simple to use, try it out
I'm currently looking to try the new furno, would you say the 300 is better then they 500 and 700 for our field of work? and is it alot lighter.
Thank you

Window tinting has been within my family, for about 25 years or so, I ended up learning from family.

i find this issue happens from the film i used, for example i had alot of these issues with suntek carbon, never had the issue on sungard black pearl, and never this issue on formula1 classic

NICE SUIT AND CANE D-BAG LOL

wait your car is matte?

I too did receive a sample from stek, The film was quite nice to install and very clear. However I was disappointed with the price list i received. overpriced for what it is. I thought that being newer company in north america, being a korean brand. The cost would be efficient. I was very wrong.
For the price i could purchase Llumar platinum, Suntek Ultra both hydrophobic films. American branding and more well known name.
Thats like buying a 60k hyundai luxury vehicle over a 60k BMW
I dont know, maybe its because were in Canada and its being distributed from the states. Maybe its the dollar conversion, duty fees and the non free shipping.
Like i said! nice film but doesn't make sense for us purchase.

does anyone experience this issue with precision cut. It freezes and has the Not responding message
-
gotta pay for the rebox
-
ahhhhhh looks like dusty to me!
-
yea lol joking aside,
i just contacted stek for a sample to test the film, i'll probably leave it on my car for a year first before i install anything like that on a clients though. Quite interested about the hydrophobic coating and the longevity.
-
could u just imagine if the adhesive was corrosive like duct tape lol
u just dont know until you take it off lol
-
yea the prep work alone takes lightyears it feels.
-
U can cover 4 doors, full hood, fender, mirror, front and rear bumpers ful rear quarter panels and roof in 5 hours?
DAMN i'm slow
-
i had the same, put it down as spam and junk cuz it was a korean film, now i wanna try it lol
Suntek CXP vs Llumar CTX
in Window Tinting - General Discussion

For the most part, the llumar film has the leading edge over the suntek, however the installer will make a huge difference as well.
So if they are both experienced and comparable installers. Choose the better color and film,
If u know one installer has much higher standards then choose them and not the film.
