    Tint Slayer reacted to pbalentine in Heat shrink pattern cut for windshield   
    First lose the h pattern.  Its not needed, just do a line across the middle. Also, sometimes you wanna move the line up or down to lessen film to shrink in that area. Stick with the glove and use soap to dry shrink. 
     
    For the corners, shrink exactly toward factory edge.

    You first need to understand that window film is not a AC unit. It makes zero difference what film you put on your car and then park it in the sun.. it’s still going to be like a oven inside. Think of it this way, imagine you have a empty cup and then turn on a faucet full blast. The cup fills up very fast ( now imagine that water is the suns heat and the cup is your cars interior. ..same cup, same faucet.. but you cut the flow of water ( heat ) by 50%... that cup is still going to fill up..just a little slower. Also..ceramic films absorb and retain heat.. so that alone plays a part to a certain degree. ..ceramic = today’s gimmick.02

    Your "1" key must not be working, i think you meant maybe $145 for a full car (still too cheap) and $125 for a 2 door.

    Been out of the FB groups for a bit. Seems like if you make a high quality video people think you're a guru.
    Have an opinion of your own in reply to a question in the groups? Hahahaha
    Have a technique you've used for decades and mention it? Hahahaha
    Any idiot can start a group and they'll get followers. In the end the trolls always take over and destroy the groups.
    That aside i've lost count of how many of my friends have split up in their personal life over something FB related. It's more like anti-social media.

    Global qdp you can buy it at express and it's listed as classic charcoal 1.2. If you need something a little cheaper but will still last classic black is a great film as well.

    No that was on his personal Facebook. Honestly can't say tint Slayer, I tried a little of it and absolutely hated it. That was before the buy out however.

    Tint Slayer got a reaction from quality tintz in Paper towels   
    I use Scott paper towels, i believe it's the most basic paper product out of them all.
    But Bounty, Brawny, Scott i'd say are the top 3 off the shelf products. 
    None of them are truly lint free, and i believe the cleaning process should assume the paper or cloth towel is leaving some small amount of debris behind for you to rinse and squeegee away just before install.

    Tint Slayer got a reaction from quality tintz in Not tucking film anymore   
    If i can't just pull back the top and pull the seal out easily, i use the Xpel EZ-Tint tool to bottom load. I used to use the Gasket Wizard every now and then but one day i tried this, another new tool, and actually liked it instead of just being distracted by it (you know the deal with that lol). They should make a small, mini or short 6" version with more bend for tuckers because the notch on the ends open the vertical rubber pretty decent when needed.

    I’ll go out on a limb and say it was more likely a shotty job from the get go and your now just noticing a bad line up job of the tinter. If the other side even remotely resembles a similar gap. You’ve got your answer as it’s highly unlikely both windows started to shift at the exact time
