Super Dave got a reaction from quality tintz in Got the Clear crush and pink clean
I use the clear crush for installing Clear Plex on windshields, but only because that stuff scratches easily. I have to do at least 2 final passes, because it’s so soft. But I’ll take that over having to start over from scratching it any day.
@pbalentine
I modified one of those cheap orange Chanel squeegee’s from Home Depot for cleaning back glasses. Made 2 lengths,
8in and 5in for smaller ones. I like that when you get close to the bottom, you can just slide the Chanel in the direction that works best. Also have a 12in Black n white, to get down further if needed.

Always hated that slider, although at one time I had them down to a science! Not sure how a plotter would do for that one? I always left the outside a bit long and did a second trim on the inside.

Those screens aren't really an issue, other than bumping into the hooks.
Panels will flex on the corners with a wedge to move the sweep off the glass on the corners.
Then just two step it like any other window. The screens don't create much of a problem.

Gotta be ready for anything, it really starts to look crazy if you throw in removal chems and cleaners!
I haven’t had a matching 10mm socket in years = it’s never the same brand as the rest of sockets in the tool box

Morning y'all
@highplains better get on that corny son there was a video I saw awhile back showing the amount of water between a corny and sprayer. Believe it or not the bottle used more. IDK I use both one for super slip and a prep bottle. @Super Dave it's funny I had a guy helping me and gave him the run down on the bottles, totally blew his mind

Super Dave reacted to Jake in Do Sunglasses Make it look Weird?
It's not a thing of some films do it and some don't. It is the polarized sunglasses catching light at different angles. Had a lady complain about it once. i explained it was the glasses. then look looked at me and asked "what are you going to do about it"? People are crazy.

Super Dave reacted to TNTLady in Back window on the new Honda hatchback.
Cussed a couple of times....asked God to show me how to do it.....looked at the Mazda 6 back window that was next up and thought to myself hmmm.....I wonder. BOOM!! It worked as my shrink surface upside down tho.

I’m hooked on poly sprayer, I haven’t used a regular spray bottle in years. My copper tunnel thanks me. Lol

Also, my bay smells like "the weed" and blunt spray. Don't these fools realize Blunt Spray is a dead giveaway. The more I sprayed the door panels and the hat rack, the more it smells like pot.

Super Dave reacted to donik in Am I being too picky?
Thank you all for advice. I did some pressing with card and the bubble got much smaller, so just a dot. I don't want the shop to waste more film just because of this as overall they have done a perfect job.

You don't gotta do the best you can with what you got to work with brotha. If they were brand new and just in the shop it would be one thing. These things have already been ran through the rock quarry so it is what it is. Yabadabadoooooooo!

Super Dave reacted to smookee408@yahoo.com in Tesla Model 3 Window Trim Scratches
Good luck bro! I would also like another try at this car again. First time I laid the film front to back and used a combo of the ryk method and normal shrinking to the sides after I trimmed it. I got a feeling that just laying my 60” roll with an anchor straight down the middle and leaving all the excess to pull shrink. It’s a hunch that this method might work better.

So I come in late today, first day of school and all. There are already 7 cars for tint here waiting! Last week of the month and I’m sure it’ll be slammed all week.

Don't think it needs to be sharp. It's like back blading with a olfa.

Probably budget stuff. No we'll push it all the way to the limit so it'll inconvenience everyone.

stratos has a decent scratch coat, I'm pretty sure I picked up some trash in the car. Only a month old and starting to smell like sloppy tech nerd living in moms basement I think
