Great video. I like rolling the front panel. When doing that you do not have to remove the triangle piece. It suck taking out and putting back and you do not have to two stage it. One screw under the handle trim and roll back and remove the sweep.
I completely understand that. Sometimes it is hard to change when we’re stuck in our ways. Where is the saying goes? Can’t teach an old dog new tricks. Lol
@marcclayburn6669 So true! 😂🤣 How long have you been tinting windows? I tinted a couple of Hyundais (elantras, I think) last week where I dir roll the pannel, and I removed the rubber gasket completely from each roll up. It's super rare that I do that, but this car was killing was a PITA. 😂🤣
I started PPF in August 20 20 and probably six months later my boss said I have an Altima coming in for a window tint for you tomorrow never tinted so technically since 2021 but no real training just off and on although I do tint every day it’s usually just drivers passenger Toyota and Volkswagens well the Volkswagens are usually full tints unfortunately Iol😂 I roll the panels back on everything. I’ve never really two staged.
Sometimes, it's tough to put things back together when rolling pannels. I only use that technique in really difficult situations. I really dislike tint8ng VWs for so many reasons! 😆
I'm thinking about this and I don't think I have much more to offer than the videos go over. I know I say a lot of the same stuff in the videos but some of the videos do give added information.
My lift is an AMGO XL-7. It seems to be an ok lift. It's the only lift I've ever owned, and I have things about it that I like and things about I don't. 🤷🏻♂️😁
Yeah it's kind of tough for me cause I'm learning ppf AND tint at the same time for Toyota dealership. Been a hell of a ride. I've broke down a few times, I've been the most satisfied I've been before tho also at times, and felt better than any other dead end job. Plus you can start your own business with it and it's fairly easy to run by yourself. Worth the struggle. I'm so scared of wasting too much film tho so it's tough to learn when you can't make the mistakes and constantly worried about going through too much film. Any advice for me Brad? I've had three weeks total of training. And they kind of just left me to my shop, and send me a Toyota every few days when I'm done tinting and PPFing it. Not sure if three weeks is quite enough for ONE trade let alone a second one. My main instructor said his instructor was with him for a YEAR straight before leaving him to his own. I'm MANAGING to install things fairly well, but lots of dirt in here. We have a HUGE heater that runs off of the used motor oil from the company. Genius idea, but I believe it's creating flying particals of dirt and ending up in my tint and ppf jobs. I'm keeping my mobile glass peel board like two feet from the install, spraying MYSELF with mist, all my cloths, even spraying the AIR before even touching the peel board. I'm wiping my top edges, I'm even cleaning the areas AROUND the top edge the entire door basically. Even deep in the cravaces and cracks. Still get dirt. It's insane. The only good thing is after we all figure out this entire process, I'm gonna be REALLY good at keeping my installs clean. At this point I know for a FACT it isn't a ME thing. I've considered that the entire time and am bad at blaming MYSELF for things, when they're our of my control in reality. So I had to make the hard decision and conclude that this isn't me this time. I need something to keep the dirt way down in here.
Keep at it. You'll get there. Focus on cleaning the windows really well and getting the cleanest install you can get. Speed will come with time. Try turning off the heater and see if you still have a problem with dirt in your installs. Does the heater keep the air swirling around? damaging material while learning is just a part of the process. I still do it. It's a lot more rare now but it still happens. It's just a part of the job. I started tinting windows after 2-3 days of tinting with another installer. Then it was back to my uncles shop to work on my own. It's rough starting that way. There is a ton of trial and error. Have you watched this video I made about getting cleaner installs? th-cam.com/video/dFqC7tKFa3U/w-d-xo.htmlsi=2BW49DHbYr8HApbq
We currently use SunTek for PPF and Autobahn for Tint. We are in talks with SunTek for everything though. I've got some film coming in to test. Do you use SunTek?
That tail gate wing looks way better than that plastic one they use. Why do they do that anyways? If you're poorer you pay a pretty large amount for just the lower end base model, it still runs around $55,000, so why do they make the CHEAPER ones plastic? Just to say "oh you're too POOR to handle the PAINTED tail gate wing....you get the plastic piece of trash"? I mean it's about the only reason I could think of to have TWO SEPERATE manufacturing tools or machines and SPACE to make TWO DIFFERENT ones, and call that economical.

I just might try that next time. I'm so used to the two staging that the other way might slow me down a bit. 😅😂

Great video as always! Any tips on tucking the film when two staging? Thanks have a great day!

I love your Tecnic , where do you get your lifting on your shop look very nice for PPF

Awesome! Thank you for the great feedback. I love hearing that the videos are helpful!
Are you just starting with window tinting, or how long have you been doing it?
@@EncorePPFtint engo casi 10 años y sigo aprendiendo, y tu me ayudas nucho..
I'm glad to hear that you're finding the channel helpful. 👍🏻 You've been tinting for quite a while.

The back rear all you need to do is pull the top and take out the sweep.
On the very back window? I'm not a big fan of pulling sweeps out. There's definitely more than one way to get this job done! 😁👍🏻
Do you not use suntek?
