- In this video, you're going to get great tips and tricks on how to install precut tin film from our Rvinyl on the rear window inside windows.

A good tip is to always roll the kit out on a flat table.
Once it's completely rolled out, the next step is to section everything up, keeping in mind that the pieces are in sets and mirrored.
The first step is to clean the outside of the windows using a highly absorbent microfiber towel and then generously spray not only the window but the area around it. Be sure to wipe down the area around it first, then the window. A lot of sneaky dirt can build up around the outside of the window, so it's very important to get that first, then clean the window last.
And now, with the inside portion of the window clean, then spray it with a slip solution, then come to the outside. Peel the liner halfway off the precut piece of window tint. Spray the exposed adhesive with the slip solution, then pick it up and over, then onto the inside portion of the window. It's always a good idea to leave about an eighth of an inch gap on the top and sides. This is for long term durability, and there's no need to use a knife to trim it at the very end. Once it's uniform in a position, spray with the slip solution, then squeegee it side to side. This holds it in position and then the window can be rolled up. It's always a good idea to clean one more time when the window goes up. Remove the liner. Spray the substitution one more time now. Tuck the corners behind the molding at the bottom. It's very important to do this first because if done properly this will even out the tension on the entire piece and then it can typically be squeezed onto the window, always squeegee from the top down and use that corner side of the squeegee to tuck the material safely behind the molding. Once the side of the molding is tucked in, then the last portion is to squeeze the middle section.
Now we get to finishing and go back over the edges with the corner of the squeegee and remove any moisture onto a microfibre towel. Once that section is down, clean the main area of the window and remove any moisture from the side, panel the vehicle. Once everything is dry and clean, clean the outside, and now you can check for any edges that aren't properly sealed, come back in with the hard side of the squeegee to make sure they're down nice and tight, give it a final wipe down.
Because the back window is curved to hold it in place, it's a good idea to make an H shape with the slip solution using a paper towel to a vertical run on the left and the right and a horizontal right in the middle. Place the rear window piece on the glass. Make sure it's even left to right. Lock it on to the middle of the edge, then to the sides of the edge once it squeegee it in place. Now it's time to shrink it on. And here we're going to speed it up so you can see the entire process. Be sure to squeegee in small sections roughly three inch and go from side to side. Try not to go vertically all the way to the edge, because this can build up too many fingers. Be sure to keep the heat going again on a medium setting to avoid burning the film. Once the bottom section is flat, I repeat the exact same steps for the top when done, the precut piece should be laying 100 percent flat on the rear window.
Once it's in the right position, simply squeeze it on in overlapping squeegee strokes. Using the triangle squeegee that comes with the kit from our Rvinyl is a great tool for these tricky areas, which can be hard to reach and be extra thorough during the squeezing process so that no moisture sneaks back underneath the adhesive side of the tent. I was nice about most back windows is there's no molding to tuck the material behind. So this is a straightforward process in terms of squeegee and getting the moisture out. Then once all the moisture is out, double check the edges and you're good to go.
And a final piece to put on is the small triangle window that is often at the back window area, a great tip is to use the tabs that come with the precut kit and putting one in the liner and one on the tent. The liner can be safely released without getting the fingers on the adhesive side of the piece. Then, as it's hanging off the tab, spread generously with the slip solution. Spray the inside portion of the window with the slip solution again, then squeegee it on. It can be awkward to squeegee from the inside. With this type of squeegee, so good tip is to once you anchor it in place in the right position, then stand outside the car, which gives a better perspective on how to get the moisture out all the way to the edge. And with this final piece installed, the last step is to simply wipe down the outside of the car. And here's a shot of the final result. And now you can see with the right tools and precut kit, a window tint film from our Rvinyl.

The guy in the video makes it look easy. I just did mine and im not even going to lie... it looks like shit lol. That back window is honestly the hardest out of all of them. I really messed that one up. I didnt even get that squeegee that guy had in the video i got a thick black one(pause). I guess yall ran out. Oh well we live and we learn.
I'm going to buy a precut kit for my 88 Eldorado to see how you guys are with an obscure classic car. 56 bucks isn't too bad, and your customers seem pretty happy. I also really like this video.
I just bought a kit from eBay from your store, I offered 10$ and it got accepted. It's the precut kit and you guys have a deal going on where if I submit pictures of me installing the tint I can get back 20$, that's a deal and I'm up for the challenge!
Awesome! Thank you! We can't wait to see how it turns out! You can see the details of the offer here: www.rvinyl.com/Rebates
Good tips ,shrinking can be an art form,not too hot,too close etc.
Very true!
How to do you get the sticky liner release tabs off the liner once you stick to it?? It' stuck and buggered up the tint a bit with glue now
I followed all these steps but still get fingers on the bottom of the window. I tired again on a 2nf window with same results. Any help would be great! May also need to order a replacement for both...
Well done vid
Will the more expensive type have an easier application?
How many hours or days do I have to wait till I am able to put my windows down? Just purchased your pre cut kit for my Chevy truck!
We recommend 24 hours.
Ik going to tint my car do I have to pre shrink it to the window or can I just apply the tint then use a heat gun after applying
It’s easier if you pre shrink it
Can u still order
Just got mine ore cut tint for my x5. Im confused, does it already come pre shrink? Or do i need to shrink it with heat gun? I installed passenger window and got some wrinkles on the bottom and side.
None of the precut tints come pre-shrunk. We haven't figured out how to put the curvature in them yet. 😉
@@Soldier4YHWH the liner is on the back. Where that is relative to you will depend on how you turn the precut tint. I know this isn't a great answer but there is no better way to explain it.
@@Soldier4YHWH😂 bruh
@@Rvinylmaybe mark the rear or put some ripe of sticker so we know that’s the back film and not the actual window tint 😂 I wanna buy the kit but I’m afraid I’ll do all the air and end up with the clear film on the window and the ruined tint on my hand 😂
Do I remove the factory installed tint before applying this one?
We would recommend it if you don't want the result to be too dark.
You can't remove can't remove the factory tint, that's manufactured into the glass.
Do i need to have heat gun to complete this job ?
We definitely recommend it since window tint is already challenging.
This looks like a job for the professionals. I know I'd mess it up.
What if your car has rain guards? I tried heat shrinking starting with the driver window and failed miserably
I did the same thing... Had to give up and trash it before I raged and smashed my window lol
@@TrenMonster Lmao it’s like the rain guard is making it difficult to heat shrink cause you don’t know we’re to push down with your hard card cause it’s not really on there flat.
I don’t understand doing the outside of the window with the tint the moving onto the inside. Basically just smoothing it out before final step I assume.
Yes
what percent is this ?
This is a 20% VLT shown in the video.
Does all Rvinyl precut window tint need to have heat gun for DIY?
Will it still fit if I don’t have a heat gun?
It really depends on which window you are tinting You may be able to do side windows with a strong hair dryer. For a rear windshield it is best to use a heat gun. Beg, borrow or even steal one! Well, not the last part but you could get an inexpensive one at Harbor Freight or even Amazon and still save a ton of money.
@@Rvinyl I’m tinting both front driver and passenger side window using Rvinyl precut 35% for 2013 Dodge Grand Caravan crew minivan tired of nosy people who go prying searching for things to steal
Outside?
I accept the mission
How did it go?
Will this film eventually turn purple?
We have never seen it turn purple.
@@Rvinyl exactly what type of film is it ? Carbon, carbon blend, etc
@@acceptyourchallenge this is our most economical film. It is single ply, dyed. We carry ceramic and carbon as well.
I’m confused on how the film ended up on the outside when rolling it out on the back window
Fr I thought I was tripping💀
The liner absolutely does not separate as easy as in this video...Im trying to start mine but I can't get the liner to separate from the tint. I'm at a loss here...trying so hard not to ruin it...
Two pieces of masking tape should work!
He did it with his thin blade on this video
Hahaha. It's not this easy. At all. Just bought a whole set for my car snd the first one I did never did any of this. I couldn't get it to tuck in anywhere. Ruined the piece so I gave up. Watching this actually pisses me off.
It is NOT easy. It takes time, patience and there is a learning curve. We offer replacement pieces here: www.rvinyl.com/Replacement-Window-Tint-Kit
Ok....the one thing the kit doesn't specify.....or this video....is how to determine which side of the precut piece is actual tint....and which side is the liner....I messed up the first kit because of this....and had to buy a second one....and it DOES NOT SPECIFY WHICH IS WHICH....PLEASE SOMEONE GIVE ME SOME INSIGHT
If you loop it on itself and it slips, it's the outside part. If you loop it on itself and it sticks to itself, that is the side that sticks to the glass.
Only if they sell front side kit instead of complete kit. I would of got them
On their website, it looks like when you go to add a tint item to your cart, you get to select the darkness and you can subtract the panels you don't want, like rear windows and back window. So you could just get front seat windows if you wanted.
I dip my pre cut tint in hot water first
Really, we would love to see your technique. You have a link?
@@Rvinyl it’s not going to work as good as heat gun. But it makes the windows tint frame more flexible. It’s good for home DIYer who is not good at using heat gun. I heat up too much and melted my window trim a little bit. lol. I dipped it into hot water and it works for me.
@@noobwow2009 great tip! Thanks for sharing!
Nice to know window tinters are swirling your paint up really nice around your windows …
My tint did not react the way yours did. It creased immediately with gentle pressure. Ruined garbage
Don't waste your time buying this snd just get it professionally done, if you've never tinted before. You will mess up, you will get mad, and you will end up spending more. Aside from that, the product itself is not bad. If you're experienced at tinting.
It’s not if you’ve never tinted before it’s if you can’t follow directions .
Tinting is NOT EASY. That's why there are professionals. If you're not confident you can follow the directions find a good, local shop.
@@WARRIORS_______fr how do you fuck that up😂
Professional once was a newbie too. 😂 its all for good fun and diy feeling of fulfilment. If it fails then try again. ;)
Just buy a second precut kit. Hell, even buy 5 of them. Still cheaper than paying a Cholo $300-500 for the same job. 😅 AND, You'll have the opportunity to learn a new trade. Start a side hustle, that's what I did. All started with tinting my own cars after getting outrageous quotes of $400-$500 for a 2 door coupe convertible. And that price was for dyed tint, nothing special.
Bought some from this company off of Amazon. DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY! It didn’t even come close to fitting. Sizes were way off. Very disappointed and of course I missed the 30 days to return it(my fault lol). Just trying to save someone else the waste of time and money! Very very disappointed!
too hard wtf lol just pay someone to do it, even the dude at a swap shop can do a better job with higher quality tint than this which has bad reviews on amazon
These kits are absolutely cheap, it starts with the fact that when you unroll it, you can’t even tell which side is the backing side. Super thin super creased when I pulled it out of the package don’t waste your money. This cost me almost $100 for a kid I couldn’t even even use because I bought the installation kit as well. Garbage.
still not paying some dude 500 bucks for this
