Every time I refill my bottles I pour some plain water in there first, shake it up real good then dump it out. I feel like if I do this then I don't have to do a major maintenance cleaning very often on my bottles which is usually me pouring warm water and alcohol in there.

 

There is a thread on this somewhere. I recall reading it

exactly that, I probably hit mine with some scalding hot water once every one or two months.

 Blue scrub pads   @highplains how much different from white?

Yeah  can you get them at Wal-Mart?? Or where do ya get them??

They're a little more aggressive than the white but not so much so that I've ever had one scratch glass. Yes you can get them at Wal-Mart. Like Tint Slayer said you have to watch them because they do start to shed fibers as they get worn but I've also had that issue with the white. 

everyone 

 That's shitty.

Morning folks car show day today

thanks @Tintmaster08

no joke! Thanks Ric! It was a massive pain in the ass but overall Im pretty happy with how it came out. The shift on those fronts was pretty crazy too.

1995 Toyota Previa done with 3M color Stable 35 front and 20 rear

Tempered side glass I use stainless razor blades, for laminated side glass and rear windows with defrosters/antennas I use cut down blue scrub pads.

Southeast Wyoming, I didn't get a picture earlier but it's just about that bad here as well. Driving home last night it was almost like driving through fog.

Gonna smoke some ribs today... morning erbody ...happy labor day 

With all those fires you've got up there and judging by the amount of smoke we're seeing from them down here I imagine that you could probably just plop them outside on a platter for a couple hours and be done with it

Morning everyone

Don't you hate when the customer that bitched about their last car brings you another and wants a discount? Guy didn't like the way his dots looked from the inside  Oh and the dude who's scamming the dealership he works at doesn't like you because of the way you talk to him?  and then he complains about you to your (boss). I don't want that guy to work on anything of mine again.  is that all I had to do    sorry for the rant y'all.

The people who ask for discounts are the people I don't want to cater to! Are you military, police, fire , paramedic? No? Then why do you sir , with your zl1 camaro ask for a discount ? Did you, do you save lives? I need a good reason, and it better involve public service  

Devil's advocate here. What about the cardiac surgeon or any other Dr for that matter do you give them discounts? They save lives. Nurses? That's the point I was getting at, it's kind of a slippery slope, where do you draw the line? At the end of the day the service we offer isn't truly a necessity for the vast majority of the population it's a luxury and typically a fairly affordable one.

Cool! Thank you. He never mentioned 45%. I hope he carries it. 

 

On on another note: I was told if I went illegal (35%) on the front sides, and legal on the two rear glasses, I could not have the Lifetime warranty Solar FX offers. Is this standard policy? 

From what I've seen that's pretty standard in the industry, manufacturers will only warranty film of legal vlt for a given area. I carry 3M and they're the same way, I'm sure it's to discourage the installation of darker than legal film.

 people with money should not get discounts!

I just don't like giving any discounts. The price is the price, it's fair and competitive for my area. Once you start giving discounts it gets to be too much of a slippery slope for my tastes, if you're running a sale for a period of time that's one thing but other than that I'm not into it.
