Ralph if you only knew how much I appreciate this video. When I say I've wasted $1,000's of dollars trying to shrink film and creasing it over and over. I went from a hour to an hour and a half to more like 30 mins with not one crease. I owe you big time!!! I am absolutely grateful for this video.
In the beginning of the video when he introduced his second born son Ryan, he did not look too excited to be there I almost wanted to say a blink twice if you need help! Another Great Video Ralph.
I love your tint. It's soo good. I rmoved it 1 yr later, no glue on glass. Installs easy. Better see though cokor than others, no green hue, just dark.
Man thank you for this video Ralph! Your window tint teaching vids are among the top on the internet. Hope your son follows in your footsteps! The first car I shrank was a crown vic! It kicked me in the teeth. I'm looking forward to trying your top corner techniques of heating the 'belly' rather than the tips to tame the fingers.
OMG just the video I needed!!! I been having issues with the top right corner when shrinking. The fingers always want to go horizontal and I end up creasing the film! I tinted my car 7 times already! Been getting better just need to get better at shrinking and cutting.
nice video! only comments are: better camera angle. top down and more close up shots. ill be using this for sure. please make more teaching videos with your novice son so others can see someone else learning it. i can see how many techniques you are explaining more vs your normal teaching videos. i would like to see him make mistakes and show us what it looks like and why it happened.
Man I just learned a lot just by watching ur son and wut he was doing like holding the card in the right position so u won’t cause a crease as u shrink basically like u say learning the dance it does lol ur very helpful thank u! One question I need some easy working film witch out of all ur film u can work with it easy and cheap at coast I have a small amount of money to work wit to get started? I really can use a sample sheet something small not even to do a window just to see how easy it is to work wit if possible I’m ready to buy my first roll of film at 45 years old I have nothing to loose at this point lol

Loved the video very helpful,I like the zone method,I’m going to attempt my first big back window on a 87 camaro this week and I’m going to try this method
I wish I watched this a week ago would have save me a number of messed up window films. Its a little help on my back window, my back window bends quite a bit so I messed up a lot at least 7 goes to get 1 that I could put on it. It has a few crease no bubbles and its cut just to small on the bottom. I say not to bad 1st time tinting a car. when a pro shop said it took him 3.
Thanks Ralph for your great tint windows videos!I like your tehnics tint and your clear instructions! I have a tint service in Romania and i love my job! Cheers 🍻👍
Hello, I have a 1973 beetle I need tinted with 70%. VLT. Not 1 tint company near me will touch the rear window on my car. And, the glass is out of the car!. Not many choices here so, i would like to try it myself.. im sure it will take a few attempts.. So my question to you is, What tint should I use.. and tools too. Any help is appreciated. I am willing to purchase the stuff thru you. Let me know.. thanks. Murph.
Great instructions about zones and shrinking! I lasted the entire video too. As a side joke this video could be a Drinking Game with one of the main drink words "ZONE ".
Hey Ralph, great video. I'm sure you know that the break light on the ES comes out real easy, it's slotted and ya just slide it back, lift up and undo the 2 wire snap plug. But, you nailed it with out removal. Great job! I've been tinting since 88 and loved your video of the old school seamed back window. I think it's the only time 1+1 = 1 lol. I use to cut my seam on the inside by rising the top side of the defroster line then pealing out the overlap but great job on that outside cut. I do like you marker method for side windows. Makes sense with " shifty " windows. I actually just tint now on weekends and some evenings as a side gig. Keep up the good work and videos.
great video teach any one to tint so now tinters will be out of job, thanks to your videos, not only that people don't want to pay to get there windows tinted, now they are going to said ,well any one can do it 👎👎👎👎👎👎
Nothing personal bro but you do not buy film from me so every car you tint is helping my competitors. I am going to train as many people as I can because they will buy from me. If you feel like you deserve it all and I dont... please tell me why??? I would love to hear what you have to say.
@@FlexFilmPlus just what make you thing people will buy film from you ? went there lots of film company's that sales cheaper film then yours, and better quality?
@@maricioflores5782 That is a good point. Maybe you can tell me what this better film is and I can start buying it immediately. I will call it MaricioFlex. I will also immediately lower the price. I really appreciate this advice. Just hope you will share the secret. Also... in the meantime, I will start calling all the 2300 flexfilm customers and share this new information. Maybe I could get you to help me start the calling process. It takes quite a while to call 2300 hundred people. Please send me a link to your website. I would really like to see how you are set up. Could you also take some pictures of your location. I want to see how a real tint shop needs to be set up. Thank you in advance if you will help me out on this matter.
I don't share secrets, if I making money why should I share my secrets, only a dum person will do that,🤣🤣🤣 you do what ever , but you sure are killing the market
@@FlexFilmPlus this is how I do it, but I been watching your videos so I can learn how to get it in one piece. I might start getting films from you too. Thanks a lot.
Kinda nerdy like it's life or death to do this like a do-or-die thing didn't even have the sides Tacked down and it's simply clear it's like a process you have to use the hard card along with the heat gun so you can move along this video gave me a headache
Sorry but you couldn't of picked a less enthusiastic person. He didn't even make a single peep the entire video. It would of been nice for someone to ask questions or say anything. But it is what it is. Still a good video. Just saying! He just look like he wanted to be anywhere but there.
I wish that in my time I also had someone who had taught me the tricks.
Your son is so lucky that he is getting lessons from one of the best tinters.

From Kenya am a big fan of your very informative videos, they literally taught me heat shrinking back and front window tints.
In the beginning of the video when he introduced his second born son Ryan, he did not look too excited to be there I almost wanted to say a blink twice if you need help! Another Great Video Ralph.
I was going to say. You couldn't of picked a less enthused person.

What's the timestamp of the part that helped you the most?
Out of all the tint videos I've seen on TH-cam yours are always the best thanks for the amazing instructions as always!
Roman Bundy
Thank you

Love this video. Thanks Ralph for putting your work out to the world and helping others.
You are an awesome teacher, I would love to spend a Friday with you and learn something. I’m in Marietta GA.

Good idea. And my video guy agrees about the better camera angles. He'll be better prepared next time.

Great teacher sir I do wish I had a dad like you
16:00 I'd love just a tad more explanation as to how to avoid the danger of over-shrinking that's mentioned right here.
Thanks Ralph for your great tint windows videos!I like your tehnics tint and your clear instructions! I have a tint service in Romania and i love my job! Cheers 🍻👍
Thank you for this amazing class

Hope you bounced back 💯

I do like you marker method for side windows. Makes sense with " shifty " windows. I actually just tint now on weekends and some evenings as a side gig. Keep up the good work and videos.
What size do you use for this Toyota Camry?
Awesome content thank you both

you do what ever ,
but you sure are killing the market
Hi really you good teacher
can this be done without a heat gun?
Yes. In 5 strips
Fire
@@FlexFilmPlus this is how I do it, but I been watching your videos so I can learn how to get it in one piece. I might start getting films from you too. Thanks a lot.
hello Ralph
Wow is that a working pay phone ?....oh and awesome video
U just taught me something
I remember my first time learning how to shrink i thought I would never be able to
Super sir
I would rather to watch you shrink the film a couple times and then just let me try it alone and learn by my mistakes
And you thought holding the flashlight for your dad was terrifying
Wish I found this video before I ruined my first attempt just now.
He's secretly a pro. I mean c'mon that's Ralph's son.
Kinda nerdy like it's life or death to do this like a do-or-die thing didn't even have the sides Tacked down and it's simply clear it's like a process you have to use the hard card along with the heat gun so you can move along this video gave me a headache

That boy is not for that job☺
the tint has more personality than the kid
