  1. Driver's side door.

    Moisture gets into the switch for the seat presets and makes the seat go wonky. Starts moving around on its own. Moves around while you're driving. Forgets customer's presets.

  2. Not quite chrome, but this is LLumar Platinum 20 on a BMW I did a few weeks ago.

    I've tinted maybe 20-30 vehicles with Platinum in my short 7 yrs experience. Problem with chrome is that, because of the reflectivity, distortion or flaws in the film can stand out. So you need to be very careful not to pinch the film, drag the film on the top edge of the glass pane, crease, or quick shrink.

     

    With PP20 If you try to shrink the edge too quickly, say before the center of the film is shrunk, then it can cause issues with curling. If you jam the vehicle out in hot sun too fast then it can curl; especially along the bottom of a back glass. Just stuff paper towel along the bottom to hold it until it dries. Haven't used other automotive chrome, but it may react the same.

     

    Nice part is any dust specking doesn't stand out. They aren't white dots in a sea of black.
