  • I wish I knew this when I did my first windshield on my own car 😂 had one little hair piece on the left bottom corner, but was too scared to peel the tint back and try and remove it. I was too proud of the first windshield tint job I did 😄

  • I did tinting 40 years ago, I just retired and looking to find something I like to do. I want to start by tinting my Tacoma what ceramic film should I get and where to buy it? By the way you’re good not just tinting but explaining!! Glad I came across your channel.

  • i tinted in high school as my first real job. back then we still used wet shrinking and you had to have the fingers vertical. horizontal "waves" would 80% crease. ah memories. years later i did my cars with with the dryer method but im too old and fat to bend around anymore. i could still do it, just takes me an ass of a long time. i did windshields on the side after the local shop stopped after they cracked down on them. it was easy 300$ a pop for a while. havent touched film in 5 years but i still get the itch looking at the left over rolls i have stacked. tinting is that one thing that looks so simple but takes so much fiddly experience to do right. watching this with the context is so much more gratifying

  • I'm still kind of shocked at the amount of shops that STILL refuse to use the soap rope. I've owned three different cars from three different manufacturers that were known to develop electrical gremlins if water got down between the dash and windshield. I kind of lose all respect and faith in any shop that doesn't make it a basic part of their routine since it's such a known issue. Great video. I wish I had shops like yours in my area. My local shops have you wanting to just do it yourself, but I know most of us with 0 experience would royally screw it up.
