@@ZapytajRedditPolska Bro, in countries outside the US, especially Nordic countries but also in other populated areas like Central nsw Australia or london or even Ireland, many people really don't ever need to drive because of the immense availability of and infrastructure surrounding public transport and bicycle lanes. Seriously, more and more people each generation are not even bothering to get a drivers licence because it just makes no sense to for many people. The cost in time and money for maintenance and fuel for many is beginning to heavily outweigh the benefits of owning a car, and when alternative transport is regularly and cheaply available, it's only an act of self sabotage to own a vehicle. Every generation we're getting more and more young adults that do not drive or own a car, and that trend seems to be continuing to rise over time. This trend is not seen in America, for obvious reasons relating to infrastructure and the distances between populated areas, and of course even outside the us, this trend tends to be much less in more rural areas.
I don’t own a car or have a license, nor do I plan on customizing cars anytime soon… but I just subbed because there’s something addictive about watching people who are good at what they do.
solution: steal a car, dont need a license the grand theft auto will fuck you beyond the point of driving without a license being an issue. also run from the cops if they find u
@@DetroitTintStudiothis video was actually perfect! As someone who struggled with back windows so badly. This makes a lot of sense. Now I get them first try and only have to redo if I make a dumb mistake like accidentally cut too short or crease while trying to install lol
Thanks for sharing this! Although I am confident I could not do this on my own, it’s so good to see someone that’s an expert at what they do. It’s just appreciated seeing somebody do something correctly.
My brain is melting.. How is outside related to inside... You should be able to stick the outside film on a piece of hubba bubba chewing gum and there's still gonna be glass in between.. What is happening...
Back in the 80s we bought tint from the auto parts store. We used a pen knife or a razor blade and a ton of windex while smoothing it out with a card card. Lasted forever.
Found a guy in my area(I live in New Jersey)that does ceramic. He did both the windshield and passenger and driver side front windows...310 bucks. Did an amazing job and it only took him two hours. Worth it to me at that price
I about fell over on how much I was quoted to do my equipment, and knew they were way harder to do than a car but..... Me being me I ordered 100 foot of nice tint, a variety of squeegees n chit and man on man what have I gotten myself into LMFAO I did pretty good I must say on the flat glass in the Bobcat Telehandler but got my ass handed to me on the curved front glass. I think I figured out from your video that my heat gun just sux. Going to order on and give another go. Thanks for the video!
I think the common misconception is that you will overheat the film and burn through it. Keeping a good distance helps that, along with trusting the process. Great video!
This is def a dumb question but how are you squeegying it from the inside when you've applied the sticker on the outside of the window? What am I missing? I'm so confused
I tinted my own windows. Wasn’t to bad. The last one I tinted came out the best. On the particular tint I was using the secret was just tons of water with a spray bottle. This actually looks easier than what I was doing
This might be a dumb question but is he putting tint on the inside and the outside of the window? I'm confused. I thought it was applied to the inside of a window?
Wait I'm confused, why are you putting window tint on both sides of the glass? Wouldn't the outside layer be exposed to outside weathering and damage. I've just never seen it done like that. All window tint that I've seen installed and put on vehicles was just on the inside of the window. Seems a bit excessive and not needed. In my opinion, a waste of money to put it on both sides.
Should you have the backing on the tint film while dry shrinking? Or do you just STICK the tint to the glass as if you're installing it and then do this?
Tint goes on one side so how does it go from outside to inside? Honestly curious. Initially it starts on the inside then he shows you how to do it on the outside to fix the problems on the inside.
The tint is shrunk on the outside and then installed on the inside. So in the beginning he is showing that if you have the problems on install (final step inside) then you are messing on during the prep on the outside
Those are called fingers that can turn into creases if you squeegee them too hard. You can save the tint during install by adding more heat to the outside without having to start the process all over again.
What about a way to like removed say over years it starts cracking right cuz I'm pretty sure I can still like a road and deteriorate over time so isn't there a way to get it off if that happens
Thank you so much, this really changed everything. This is the hardest DIY project I’ve ever taken on ever. I have literally built a small house just by watching TH-cam videos. Window tint is a whole new ball game. Respect!
Back windows if you don’t lay your soak towel will all end up in the trunk. doors are different they have drain holes so most of it is ejected while the other evaporates
Tinting is 100% an art and it really does take skill, know how, patience. Whether it seems simple or not, some scenarios may be, stuff like this though, man. It’s hard to not get the film adhesive dirty, fold it and make it stick, get the bubbles out, you really need more film to do it a few times or more your first time. I’ve never done a back window and honestly I would rather just remove the window and make sure it’s perfect since I never do it and it would honestly probably save me time in the long run.
The slow addition of medium heat allows the tint film to 'spread'the big crease into smaller creases which become easier to adhere to the curved surface. I used to work as a vinyl signage applicator person - vinyl graphics material works in the same manner.
What's funny to me, is that you had to try pretty hard to not get it to work right while it was still working pretty well. Lol. Watching a pro try to teach what not to do always cracks me up.
It takes talent to do a good job tinting windows! You guys are talented at tinting!! I’ve learned a lot from your videos but I still don’t feel comfortable enough to tackle tinting my car windows!I also lack patience!
Is that Wagner in Heat 1 or 2 Position? How hot do you get the tint? (Until wavy is Sufficient?) Do you have fear of overheating the Window while shrinking the tint?

Is it possible to use window tint on Sideview mirrors to make the shine from the sun go away or at least be less blinding?
The more I watch these, the more I realize I should never do this.
For real this is one of those things i would fuck up major if i ever tried myself. I don’t have enough patience
Yup it is very complex for the amount it costs for someone else to do it
For me it’s the fact they hold the damn heat gun SO CLOSE. It’s gonna burn tf outta the paint lol.
Do it a couple of times and you’ll be fine may be hard the first time but gets easier over time.

Lol, you haven't learned how to tint a window until you've ripped off the tints at least 10 times because it wasn't perfect
I wonder how many DIYers install the tint on the outside after watching these videos.
Always on point Matt.
My brain is melting.. How is outside related to inside... You should be able to stick the outside film on a piece of hubba bubba chewing gum and there's still gonna be glass in between.. What is happening...
Cut the film to shape and size on the outside where it’s easy to work with it
Oh no
Me too love
Same, like am I stupid?? 😭
I did my own tint 5 years ago. 2 months later it was bubbling. I ripped it off and went to a good shop. 4 1/2 years later and it still looks new.
Never tint from inside of rear glass if it has heating defroster . It will get stick rip it when u remove the tint

I’ve had tint on almost every car I’ve owned and never had creases like that. You get what you pay for!
I got a full kit but imma leave the front and back for the shop most likely 💀 side windows are cake tho
If that happened, any tips to fix it other than replace them with new ones?
Can you show tips for side windows and mention me in it. I have a friend and we have a bet what way you are going to do this.
I spent over an hour shrinking film to my back hatch on my civic. Soon as i peeled the back off it stuck to itself
god I hate tinted windows, especially as a pedestrian
Is there such thing as over shrinking?
Give it some time while you apply. Heat, is good advice for shrink wrap, and the ladies 😜!
Excellent video

Do you need the back window to be dry when heat shrinking? Also do you put anything on the back window?
Should you have the backing on the tint film while dry shrinking? Or do you just STICK the tint to the glass as if you're installing it and then do this?
Do you shrink the film and the backing together before you peel it and stick it to the inside of the glass?
Do I have to shrink for a 99 outback window?
Tint goes on one side so how does it go from outside to inside? Honestly curious. Initially it starts on the inside then he shows you how to do it on the outside to fix the problems on the inside.

someone please answer this
Back windows if you don’t lay your soak towel will all end up in the trunk. doors are different they have drain holes so most of it is ejected while the other evaporates
Question, why do you use soap for the inner tint but not the outer tint?
I thought you put tint on the inside of windows.
why this guy sounds like that scientist youtuber who always mix chemicals.
Can you overheat it, or is more hear better?
Smooth on the outside it will make it smooth on the inside?? What?

Nice. Might do my firebird.
As someone who has no interest in tinting my windows, I'm actually glad to see these videos, so that I can roast those with crappy tint jobs
I just know if I ever tried to do this I would crease the film every fucking time no matter how many different things I try to avoid it
Increases, decreases, creases.
Yeah, looks kind of easy, but most people would mess it up, including myself.
A year of experience in a few seconds.
Temperature of heat gun?
Do you apply tint to BOTH inside and outside? Or only one or the other?
Just the inside, he's pre shrinking it on the outside
Love these
What country is this that its legal to ting the front windows
The slow addition of medium heat allows the tint film to 'spread'the big crease into smaller creases which become easier to adhere to the curved surface. I used to work as a vinyl signage applicator person - vinyl graphics material works in the same manner.
How to tint with heated stuff on the rear windshield without making them bubble up months later?
There is definitely an art to this
bro looks like he should be a scientist
Isn't tint in the front window and the driver and passenger window illegal? It is in Canada at least I think

How high is the heat and how hard does it blow (yesterday did my first tint job but back window failed)
