Yeah the tint is cheap enough £4 a meter for decent enough no name carbon film or £7 for Suntek Carbon. I just ordered 6m from China for £4 to see how it goes 😂 worth a try to see if it is any good.
@@orficaldari3524 The China stuff was OK, obviously not as good a quality as the proper brand names but perfectly fine to practise and learn with. My first couple of attempts ended up in tbe bin but got my car done pretty well in the end.
I honestly don’t even know why y’all are coming for this man and the only thing I could think of is that y’all salty he didn’t go to your so called pros for the same job they would have done not only that his works makes perfect with the stock it literally looks like it all goes together or came that way
I’m getting my new / second hand Honda this weekend I want to tint the windows should be no problem with regard no direct sunlight I live in England 🤷♀️
Omg you have been hitting all the little things I needed to know! I cleaned my windows with Windex, which damn sure has ammonia! I knew I didn't know enough to do it myself yet so I'm saving it for a nice day and after a few more of these type videos, so thanks! Question, I've heard you don't want to do it in direct sunlight, which is all my driveway is, so I'm thinking of doing it at the carwash so I can be under the car port, but will it be okay if I drive home after and it sits in the sun? Should I try to keep it under the shade or what? Thanks in advance.
I’ve never heard of sunlight causing a problem. In fact, there are mobile tinters that will do it right in your driveway. The only thing I can think of is the sunlight would cause your solution to dry a lot faster. But if you apply a lot of solution then this shouldn’t be an issue.
Hi Obsessed Auto, Great job with the tint job! I have two question if you don't mind answering because I want to tint the two front windows on my GMC Envoy. 1) How is the tint hold up so far? Any discoloration ? 2) Which ebay seller/store did you order From?
So far the tint is great, no issues at all. Would definitely buy again, here is the link to the eBay seller: www.ebay.com/usr/elitetint?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2754. It's worth doing, thanks for watching!!
Just did mine I winged it and it has bubbles lol I dont really care it's my beater car so I'm just enjoying the privacy but it definitely gave me experience for when I want to do a good job. The more windows I djd the better the turn out eas and the very last window was perfect HAHAHA
No, we didn't use a heat gun for this application, we let the sun work for us! In an upcoming video we will be using a heat gun because it will not be a precut film! Thanks!! We are very pleased with the outcome!! Stay tuned for more!
You saved money but quality tint is something you don’t wanna cheap out on the installation can be done fairly easily. Doing it correctly however is different lol if you want diy at least buy good quality material and take more time to do it properly
Well, I ride a bike, and I keep almost getting hit by people with their front windows tinted this dark. You can't see as well at night. Maybe it's a bad idea.
*as a window tinter* I have tried this in the past and 99.9% these kits are awful, they usually are short on the edge or the bottom. I would not advise getting these kits (No disrespect to the guy who’s making this video) Its something I would get done professionally and I can assure you there is dust due to it resting on the door panel.
Looks fine. All these complainers in the comment section. It's not like he's going to own the car for life. They are mad because they are not getting there 100 dollars for so called professional work. It's like someone calling themselves a professional mechanic because they own SnapOn tools lol. Ridiculous!
Exactly! Not to mention having to pull it off when time for inspection. Then paying another 100 to get more. I've used $25 pre cut tint before. Ripped off super easy and clean. Passed inspection. And put it right back lol
25 bucks and the contamination specs on the window looks like glancing into the starry night sky haha. Just go to a pro. They charge accordingly for a reason. Don't do what this guy did.
J Wise lol I was watching this and shaking my head the hole time lol. I do professional window tint and definitely everything about this video is wrong. This people are the main reason we have so many removals at the shop lol so many customers say... Yeah so I watched this TH-cam video and ........ You know that's how the conversation starts .
So if you do professional window tint and this guy did everything wrong, what could he have done to do it better? It looks fine on video. Is it because he didn't use a razor blade to clean the inside of the window? And it looked like he didn't clean the door panel while the tint rested on it. Is it cause he didn't use a heat gun on the inside to form it to the curvature?
@@NGGPeter what did he do wrong? Removed the entire liner and placed onto glass leaving the bottom exposed to the dirty door panel. He exposed the film to many contaminates with his transfer technique of film to glass. Finished product looks like shit. Touched the film with dry fingers leaving smudge that delaminates the adhesive reducing the longevity of the film backing. Also, he paid 25 dollars PER side. Thats 50+ bucks IF he got it right the first time around. Professionally done, a two window vehicle runs $70 and the film is ceramic and not dyed film like the film he used which will last 2 years. Carbon ceramic you're looking at 5-7 years. He didn't squeegee correctly or shrink so the film WILL develop fingers and eventually peel at the edges after continuous up and down movement of glass through use. And last but certainly not least he bought EBAY tint.
@@cold-frontin_penguin7902 HI I ordered an ebay kit for my back windows of my berlingo before watching this video. It cost $50. should I take it to a professional to fit ? Or is it possible to get good results myself ?
I got quoted £180 for my car... bought the tint for £18 and done it myself, it came out perfect! Im well happy!!!
Think I need to up my prices then if there's people quoting that much
Yeah the tint is cheap enough £4 a meter for decent enough no name carbon film or £7 for Suntek Carbon. I just ordered 6m from China for £4 to see how it goes 😂 worth a try to see if it is any good.

Use heat gun on outside shrink fingers makes install easier....
I’m getting my new / second hand Honda this weekend I want to tint the windows should be no problem with regard no direct sunlight I live in England 🤷♀️
Thanks for the great video! On installation
I’m kinda scared to do the back window for the 1st time, any tips?
Jay W it’s same work as the other window.
Use a heat gun
I would love to know how many times you actually did that window lol.
I realize it's kind of randomly asking but do anybody know a good place to stream new series online ?
@Nehemiah Ivan try FlixZone. Just google for it =)
@Ryland Larry Yup, I have been watching on flixzone for months myself :D
@Ryland Larry thanks, I went there and it seems like a nice service =) Appreciate it !!
@Nehemiah Ivan no problem xD
I am going with the Higher Quality Nano Carbon tint from Lexan and giving it a try!
Have you tried it ? Just saw it too online
Just saw it’s a dyed brand not a fan when it turns purple after time lol
Should I buy this and do it instead of taking it to be done?
It's not the most difficult thing. That is for sure. If you have patience you'll be fine!
Good work and a great video dude, I will be tinting the windows myself on my VW T4
Question. Will the inside of my windows never again fog up now that the tinted foil has been installed?
Omg you have been hitting all the little things I needed to know! I cleaned my windows with Windex, which damn sure has ammonia! I knew I didn't know enough to do it myself yet so I'm saving it for a nice day and after a few more of these type videos, so thanks!

hen i tried all that happened was the sticky side sticking together after 2 attempts i gave up

what state are you in ?
I'm with you bro!!!! Im not paying $100+ for 2 windows Lol She's a beaut !
What % is the tint
Very helpful thanks for the video
Ayy go Huskers!
LET'S GO ROYALS!
No heat gun???
Just did mine I winged it and it has bubbles lol I dont really care it's my beater car so I'm just enjoying the privacy but it definitely gave me experience for when I want to do a good job. The more windows I djd the better the turn out eas and the very last window was perfect HAHAHA
And whats great is when it comes time for inspection just rip them off and buy another set for $25👍
Exactly what I've done lol. And pre cut tint tends to be easier/cleaner to pull off too vs a full out custom job
Don't go on a rainy day for inspection and leave the windows down. LoL
Did you at any point in time after the install was complete use a heat gun? Tint install came out bad ass by the way. 👍🏼
No, we didn't use a heat gun for this application, we let the sun work for us! In an upcoming video we will be using a heat gun because it will not be a precut film! Thanks!! We are very pleased with the outcome!! Stay tuned for more!
Thanks bro
Awesome thanks so much guys!
You saved money but quality tint is something you don’t wanna cheap out on the installation can be done fairly easily. Doing it correctly however is different lol if you want diy at least buy good quality material and take more time to do it properly
Meh, bought 3M 20% tint roll and my brother taught me how to do it properly. Very easy but patience is key
Well, I ride a bike, and I keep almost getting hit by people with their front windows tinted this dark. You can't see as well at night. Maybe it's a bad idea.
Maybe riding your bike at night is a bad idea... at least use a light! That should help others see you and you see as well!

(No disrespect to the guy who’s making this video)
Its something I would get done professionally and I can assure you there is dust due to it resting on the door panel.
If you want your tint to come out with the design of the milky way then do same exact thing this guy did lol 😂
why what was wrong ?
@@Professor-Scientist dirt in job
Guy spends 20k on a truck complains bout paying a guy 100 dollars to tint his windows. 🤦♂️
Truck which truck its not even full size SUV, Anyways in America they buy all as CREDIT payments and their entire life is paying the bills/debt.
Truck is financed so it’s different
Tight hahah
Fingers crossed those windows were working sarky or we’ll be going viral & it won’t be fucking fringe related. Sweet dreams 😘😘😘
You have obviously done this before hahahha
