Can you do a video on how to chisel out specs, debris, and small creases. I didn’t even know you could do this till another video showed it. Would have saved me a ton of redos. Would love to see how you handle specs up close
Why you didn’t cut for the break light ??. how many state that car will fail inspection. Even if in your state is totally fine its a pain for future owners
After 30 years of tinting thousands of auto windows...only one...a brand new convertible ford mustang passenger side rear small op window...took a chat...but lucky for me since I was employed to do window tint for a ford dealer...just sayed it didn't work from the factory...n send it to service side...
I just did a 2018 accord and man that rear windshield kicked my ass. Had to hand cut so it wasn’t perfect and i kept having airpockets form up on the sides on top. Any suggestions?
Hey boss, I use to have the same problem... not sure how everyone else does it but I been pulling up the film about 3” or so from top and bottom after I shrank it and did the last trim and re-shrinking them making sure the edges are laid down flat. I know this is a late response
Bro I've been struggling with shrinking and rear window in general. When you said don't over think it it was like a light bulb went off. I just shrunk my rear window in one shot and in a few minutes. Thank you.
Makes this install much easier. I tried with them on and couldn’t remove any of the fingers coming up from the bottom. The front widows are horribly difficult. I had to redo mine on my first try tinting my 18 accord
Rear window I really recommend you shrink beforehand. That thing will never fit without pre shrinking. I did it my first time. I used a bar of soap on a wet rag and rubbed it on the outside rear window and pre shrunk using the H method. Make sure you don’t over heat the edges. And definitely avoid creasing it.
Why my windows look blurry still have water in the window I thought I gotten all the water out, maybe to much soap you add to the spray bottle, what's the problem
Randy Harris hey man I’m a tinter. I’ve done plenty of these Honda’s too. Window film can look hazy for a few weeks truthfully. A lot of film companies tell you to allow a few weeks for the film to properly cure. Water will dry. If it looks bubbly in the inside but not the outside it’s water and it will dry. If the bubble is visible on the inside and out it is air often air. Air bubbles will not dry (bad bubbles). Most of the time you will squeegee most of the water out but not all. The more installs you do the better your squeegeeing technique will get. If the film looks hazy after it drys/cures fully, could be cheap film.
Thanks for the reply I were thinking I were using too much soap speaking of soap how much soap you add to a spray bottle not the pump up sprayer only a spray bottle.
Randy Harris typically slip solution is all about preference and what you use. Dish soap is not as slippery as baby shampoo to me. I use baby soap mostly, tint slime if I have the money to afford it. If you’re tinting in the cold you need less soap and if it hot typically more. I’d say start with maybe like 2 table spoons at first then see if you need more or less. A good soap shouldn’t leave residue behind that causes imperfections. I used a poly 2 sprayer. About I personally use a 1-2oz per refill depending on the time of year.
You are the bomb bruh awesome & thanks for the information maybe one day I'll be as good as you are I'm watching one of ur video's now you tint a rear window on a bmw
It's not a necessity but removing the gasket makes it easier since you won't have to pull back on the weather stripping on the bottom and feed it through. When you don't move the gasket, you're going to have to pull back the weather strip and feed the film under through, and most of the time, that creases the film if not done properly. Plus, after installation, you're going to have to squeegy the water out from the bottom, and the gasket makes the process harder. If the gasket is removed, you can easily use heat gun and squeege out the water and let gravity do its thing.
Hello ,first of all ,I love you're videos, thanks for making them..But I never see you do the dot-matrix trick..,don't you have silvering at the dot matrix? Greatings from the Netherlands , Sjoerd.,
@@WindowTintWarriors ah you're, I became a tinter, learned a lot by watching your channel. Still trying to figure out how to use the plotter and which is a good software for templates for windows.
Great video! I'm currently 16 yrs old and Ill say I am a professional at this I been doing this for 3 yrs I want to start my business but I don't know how much to charge, Any advice?
And the rear window. Tons of light cap.. It not just the dot matrix at the bottom.. You can clearly see the squeegee poking form underneath the film.. And in the quarter window when cutting you can see light gaps. Some of your technique is good and you are fast. But without removing more of the interior.. This will never be perfect. I'm a pro tinter from Iceland. Been doing this for over 16 years. I have fixed tons of cars tinted in the states (we import a lot of cars from the states) ..because most of them have these same issues. I'm sure you can do this much better.. But this is semi amateur hour to me. Sorry man. Side note though.. I salute you on the way you get the rear tin to the rear window.. That was somewhat impressive. :)
Dam amazing work cant wait to start tinting and appreciate your content and tutorials on all vehicles 🔥🔥🔥👍

Where can I get the big plastic spatula?
Why would you not preshrink the tint, even if you're bottom loading. Not worried about trash/dirt from suck back?
Channel growing right on

I’m just so curious, does all that water have any affect on the electrical work on the inside of the car panel ?
Most wire harness have rubber inserts where the male and female connector meets. If that was the case then your car would have issues when it rains.

You are a BEAST! OUTSTANDING work!
From Dominican Republic 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴... i follow u!! Thanks for u videos..👍🏼👍🏼
Do you have a shop?
How many Inches is that back window? what size roll would suffice?
Hi , what kind of liquid do you use
Nice shop area! I was thinking about getting some storage racks for my tint rolls. Any recommendations?
Have you done a Toyota camry 2017 or 2019 please make a video how to it thanks

What percentage is the tint in the back trunk widow
5% he said in the video
Just recently bought a bmw 2 series active tourer. Hope you have a video for that.
I’m think about getting my 2019 Honda Accord tinted. Does this process mess up the speakers inside of the door panel?
no

Its all mental 😎
Why do you have remove that panel in the inside of the doors for these particular cars?
Makes this install much easier. I tried with them on and couldn’t remove any of the fingers coming up from the bottom. The front widows are horribly difficult. I had to redo mine on my first try tinting my 18 accord
Could I use a 24 inch roll for that back window boss?
Too small. Think a 36 barely covers it if Im not mistaken. Id go with a 40
عمل جيد ورائع very nice work .... best Regards from Kurdistan
Is it much faster to shrink after film install then before?
Rear window I really recommend you shrink beforehand. That thing will never fit without pre shrinking. I did it my first time.

Thank you for all your videos! After finish tinting a vehicle do you use any window cleaner to wipe the windows down?
Water & micro fiber cloth lightly wipe
Why my windows look blurry still have water in the window I thought I gotten all the water out, maybe to much soap you add to the spray bottle, what's the problem

No it didn’t 🥸
@@WindowTintWarriors 11:30 of the video when you cutting it and using your phone

Broo this car not under sea. there are many buttons and your water dripping on them. it can easily be shot circuit!
Too much water damage for a new car
Material looks cheap, hope it doesn’t turn purple
Yes. Purple next day! Customers love it
What a hack/lazy job on the door panels.
Bobo Teabaggins lets see you put up a video then, show us how it’s done
