I know first hand what kind of day you had there. Looks great

I’ve always fought those by adding extra slip down there. Now I use a soakshield and it pushes it out of the way.

I didn’t think about it sagging in the middle. That’s a high possibility. I like the masking tape idea. I’ll probably do something along those lines. I just figured it’d be quicker to do it all at once, although It’d probably be aggravating to try to handle all that film.

I’ve got a job coming up and was wondering how you guys generally apply frost across door seams. It’ll be a 48” privacy strip approx 12’ long. Would you apply it across the door seams and cut it afterward or precut each piece? Was thinking tinting Across would be easier to keep straight. Anything to look out for?

I have no idea what I just read. I did enjoy the part about slamming the 302, haven’t heard that phrase in years.

Yea I see the “squeeze” things on the sides that they’ve been using forever on the xl trucks. That’s usually an easy one to get off. Not today apparently

You sure that’s a 17? I thought the 17s went to a set screw. Regardless they suck, some just worse than others. I’ve broken two out of 100 or so.

You call in the order to ewf? I’ve got a pdf of their new tool list but don’t know how to order online off of it. Interwest has them

For what it’s worth on the tool itself it’s called something else but I forgot what.

I’ve used a blue max for years but just ordered an orange crush and clear crush to try out.

Looking online they are roughly $100 for 450. One box will last me about a year maybe more. Not trying to thread jack but I wouldn’t be surprised if these aren’t rebranded. I never knew how many products were actually made by zep until he told me. They buy chemical companies all the time but don’t change the names.

It’s a white box of 500 is all I can tell you. I have a friend that worked for them and got me a couple boxes from their internal store. I’ve looked for them online and never been able to find them. I’ll look again. Honestly these may be the same thing, just rebranded.

I’ve got some good towels from Zep that sounds like they are similar to these. I use them over and over until they get dingy. By that point they are starting to shed lint anyway

Hey look at this. All that cussing and aggravation turn into something positive. Thanks!

Man that sucks. I haven’t had this problem but hopefully it’ll dry out tonight and be good in the morning.

Be careful to remind the mechanic at inspection time, i get a few people come in and the mechanic started destroying the tint to get the sticker off. Just a heads up, those guys remove stickers like they're on auto pilot and don't think to check for tint film.

My Jeep hit 305K on the way to work this morning.    :wow  
 
[mention=177]Roach[/mention]  I've gotten away from the chains almost completely.  The meat and 2 two places is where it's at.    I might eat Chik-Fil-A every now and again, and this local chain called Milo's is pretty good, but that's about it.  The only other chain we eat at is Cracker Barrel, otherwise it's a local place.   

tinted in Express HP 30%.

Having peace of mind is a valuable thing. When I starting tinting I was either too hard headed, stupid, or crazy to let it beat me. I’m glad i stayed persistent, but 12 years later I don’t know if I would have had the same determination if I started tinting today. Kinda like golf, I enjoy it but I would never try to learn today if I didn’t have a long history with it.

Sounds like they put more faith in you than you do yourself. I'd go in and do the job and get paid. Especially since they are being so cool about it.

I’d just trim around the defroster but that circle thing looks rough. Will it come off?

Today I told my ac man to get started as soon as possible. Going with a central unit as opposed to the mini splits that I wanted. Hopefully tomorrow will be my last day working in my shop when it’s 15 degrees hotter than outside.

I always shave with the blade. Never used a file.
