    My only critique would be to move the yellow banner up to the top to clean up that area of the wall . Then move the wheeled dumpster outta the area your pics are taken.

     

    Good to see no reflections of the mop bucket in this set.!! :thumb :thumb

     

    I'm no photographer. I put giant stickers on peoples walls and glass . What do I know?

     

     

    Thanks for the input, Fox.  :thumb

     

    Sadly I used to have that yellow banner up on the wall as you mentioned but the city came by and said it's not allowed to be on there due to it being a "temporary" material. So anything like canvas banners cannot be displayed on the building/structure. So my boss told me to hang it on the door that way it hangs within the bay and not outside.

     

    As for the trashcan that's just pure laziness for me  :evileye

    Next time I'll keep that in mind and move it inside the bay temporarily while I take a photo. Sometimes depending how full the lot is I try to park the car in front of it so it can hide it or at least have the car moved more the the right.

  3. Good stuff Tint Cracker, the 2005 version of that whip is fun  :pirate

     

     

    I did a few things today. 

    Two estimates for R/R Anti Graffiti.

     

    Then from an earlier post where I went to Nickelodeon studios on Sunset where I R/R on a window pane using Architectural blue 35%. They had another window that needed to be done.

     

    And finally I did this residential job in Beverly Hills using ULVDS 70%

    Again you cannot tell the difference since it's so light but I decided to post the before/after for the hell of it.

  4. I just got pulled over this past Sunday for my tint.  :D

     

    He asked what's the reason for the tint. Told him I have a lot of work tools/drills/blade packs as well as film in my car at all times and I'm not wanting them to be snatched because they could see what's inside so easily. So I rolled my back windows down to show him all what I have in the back of my car. 

     

    He looked, then asked if I ever been arrested, on parol, ect and I said no and no. 
    He asked if I had a problem with searching my vehicle, I said go ahead I don't have anything except tools and film. He didn't bother. 

    Went back to his car and checked my license and said he wasn't going to bother writing me the ticket. 

  5.  

    2005 maserati quattroporte

     

    Color stable full tint.

    35% roll ups

    how did u go about getting those rear roll ups done? ive done a couple and find them to be a nightmare.

     

     

    They were actually the first things I wanted to knock out on the car. 

    It's also a two stage install. What I did that I found to be "easiest" is upon installing the top edge and before tuck/folding the side that would essentially be the hardest...I actually peel the liner off half way and tuck the film evenly into that nightmare of a channel without having to fold the film within itself and having to deal with a massive crease upon rolling up the window to unfold the film and install the bottom half.

     

     

    The only thing to do if you end up doing it that way is to make sure the panel itself is really clean because the film being exposed from peeling the bottom half nearly all off it could grab contaminants. Now you still may get a crink or two on the film but don't squeegee the water out just yet. Instead, use your heat gun to slowly heat the glass until you see the water between the film beginning to dissipate, then grab your slammer with a towel and with one smooth motion pressing firm, press all the water out and it will also press the crinks out cleanly without having to blur anything out afterwards.  

     

    Hope this helps!  :beer
