Back in 1979 in northern Cali I got a job with Trim Line as a driver for a 30 something alcoholic who lost his licence.
He was a good worker when he wasnt hung over. All he did was install rivet on body side moldings.
I drove him from one dealer to another and also helped him with the jobs and when he lost his job due to his drinking I took over and then added pin striping and graphics to my arsenal. I picked up tinting in the early 80's when I worked at a different trim line shop.
Over the years I have done many kinds of jobs but tinting, PPF and auto accessories
has always paid the bills. here I am 60 years old and installing ppf and tint 5 days a week for a local Toyota, Nissan,Honda,Chrysler, Jeep, Ram VW dealer.
Looks like they will have to pry my heat gun out of my cold dead gnarled hands at the rate Im going.
