    Good effort, from a 25 year experienced professional window tinter. You’ll get small water bubbles forming as it dries because of the squeegee you used, don’t worry, they will dry. Once it’s dried properly 24 to 48hrs, you can file the edges with a very fine file to smooth them off👍🏻👍🏻. For future reference, use a duel reflective film rather than the silver 20 you used, the duel reflective film will give a mirrored ish appearance on the outside but a nice neutral internal look , rather than the mirrored horrible look at night. It still provides the heat rejection and privacy that your silver does but just looks loads better. But well done and keep up the excellent vids, thank you 👍🏻👍🏻. Went to Crick show to start planning my 2027 wide beam , went on trade day, wearing my tinting shirt, got loads of enquiries, you’re onto something there 😂.

    Interesting, especially when I also looked at Tim Haywoood's comments below.

    My wife and I had 35 windows done with this film , all around our bungalow. We paid to have it fitted fantastic, best investment we have ever made, it keeps the heat in as well , its been on the windows over a year now, and very Impressed with it, if you put a light on in the room where the film is you can be seen,, but if it's daylight outside you cannot see in happy boating x x

    Did you notice how Mrs Wellington was hanging back whilst Mr Wellington did the cutting to shape, ( i bet she was waiting for him to make a pigs ear of it, then she would have told him how to do it, of course after telling him well dear i made a mistake when ordering they would have cut it to size )
    Nice job Mr Wellington, you do know they wrap cars these days but i have never seen anyone wrap a widebeam boat until your next video.

      🤣🤣🤣 now wrapping the boat, there’s an idea, would cover up the tragic paintwork 🤔🤣😁

    Put a little bit of cellotape on each side of the corner, don't let it stick together, then pull apart, splits the film from the cover easily

      Fabulous 😀 wish we’d known this when we were frantically nibbling it 🤣🤣🤣

      @WidebeamandWellingtons no problem, did you try it on a scrap piece, ?, if you're doing the other windows it will be easier next time, love the videos by the way

    Does seem like a lot of faff, especially when you do the big windows! I'm sure it will work😊 I have double glazing on my boat and blackout curtains and blinds, they seem to help with keeping the sun and heat out, but the boat still heats up, when it's sunny 😅

      It actually got a lot easier after we did the first one 😁
