I'm sure you could but why? The cost difference to step up to a larger, more capable plotter isn't going to be that much in the long run. Your cutting software is going to cost the same regardless of whether you're doing just sides or all around. Also consider that fitment issues with plotted patterns are most prevalent in the side windows.

Wipe down the A pillars and entire dashboard thoroughly. Or remove them completely(A pillars). Prep, squeegee then wet again-feel with your hand to make sure you didn’t miss anything on the glass. Wet. Wipe the sides from top to bottom with a paper towel. Final squeegee, DO NOT HIT THE HEADLINER(if you do, start over). Spray sides from top to bottom to flush any contamination down. Light spray on windshield except top 3”-4” of windshield. I’m sure you already have the reverse roll technique down, so next step is install. Sometimes I stick the side and unravel across the glass, sometimes I unravel it all the way across the dash then start working the film on from bottom to top. Hope that was clear and helps a little.

Fun times

This is what I'm working on in my spare time 
 
 

One of the glass company we do work for gave us 2 48in by 72in and installed it on the wall for $180. He hook us up with some strong tempered glass. It works for us. We also have another 48in by 72in mobile peel board. This peel board is acutally pretty sick. Dont mind the mess it was busy today and we have a shit ton of boxes that came in.

Guy calls this morning with storm services wanting his peterbilt done, ok come on we'll work you in. Well he doesn't show and around 2 head home. Get a call at 340 hey you already closed? Yeah sorry I've already left, ok we had some calls. Alright well these past two weeks have been shit so I'll gear right back over sometimes you just gotta roll with it.

I put a corner of the film between my teeth pull film tight with left hand slide meter on film with right hand 

That sucks man. People need to remember that no matter what it's never going to be perfect, hell I guarantee you the car itself wasn't perfect coming off the line. At the end of the day regardless of whether it's bulk or a kit it's applied by hand, by a human, to a non-sterile surface, and in a non-sterile environment, perfection is a myth, and it's paint protection not paint perfection. Sometimes the best customer service is knowing when and how to say no and pushing back against the unrealistic.

I do reverse roll on windshield even though my go to is Frankie on bg. I would always get creases on the front for some reason. It took me awhile to get down there reverse roll and I'd say my Frankie is still cleaner on the back in most circumstances than my reverse roll.

@flat rock stan travels and teaches... he's good tech support. You may succeed with a few jobs on your own with internet videos but there are a million curve balls in the window tint world. Always something different and more challenging for sure, any insight into how to deal with obstacles from the past helps with next years nightmare car. Experience is priceless in this industry.  

I think one of the main reasons I want a helper is so I can say,,, "this one is nasty, you crawl around in this one, not me"  :work  

Everyone around here thinks just because they have a day off I should be working.
I guess Labor day has a different meaning then I was taught
