Yes sir, we all have our own methods. It's cool to know what's out there just incase you want need to adjust what your doing for certain applications. Thanks for watching, I appreciate your time.
Since DIYd mine, I used the technique where you raise the bottom of the brow up to the top of the glass and use it as a stencil. Cut sliding the blade off the edge of the glass. It's perfectly straight with the curve of the glass. No bowing (low on the sides, high in the middle) like most people's.
Very cool. Most of my customers go with the Factory edge. I usually don't get requests for them like that m Thanks for the comment, it's cool to hear what others are doing. 👍🏾
@@FadeToBlackLLC For sure. I recommend trying it out. The AS1 lines up perfectly and you don't have any missing material in the middle. When I had a shop do with the factory edge a few years ago, it was 1" below as1 lines on the sides and 2" above as1 in the middle.
@@thecoolchipys yeah maybe I'll try it one day. Thanks. It's crazy because people up here like them low and go past that AS1. Thanks again for sharing your ideas. I appreciate it.
Bro if you hold your blade down flat and use stainless steel blades or if you put a coat of clear liner over the glass and then cut you're not cutting into the glass.... Save some old clear liner and then you tape it on to the glass. You're making a lot of work for you.... I'm a veteran window tinter
Thanks for the tip. I adjusted the way I cut out my films and I know there are a lot of ways to get it done. Thankfully I haven't cut any glass in a long time with the new methods. I know a lot of people still cut on glass and these new vehicles are just way to soft to attempt. Thanks again.
Honestly yes, I kinda move around a lot but I just showing that you don't need a fancy place to get things done. Just try your best to do good work and treat people like you want to be treated. Also low overhead ha ha.
Nice faded....sharpie or glass aid the best....!!!! I Sharpie even the full windshield all the way around and cut it on the glass board I rather scratch my glass than the customers !!$$$
Your totally on point with that. I like to use my Glass Aid on brand new vehicles so I have no chance of messing up. I know that will be a a expensive bill like when I messed up that Dodge. Live and learn right. From now on, no blades touching the glass. My EARLY tint resolution ha ha
@@JBIRD575 well I've used some Plotters and the patterns weren't so great. I'll make a video soon explaining why I don't use a plotter.. Even though I know they are nice. It just kinda doesn't work for how I move around at the moment.
Honestly I lay it on the glass for looks first.. Usually I do them around 9 inches on most full sized trucks except the Fords. They have a weird shaped glass. I don't know how the cops are in your area, here we're good!

I've done it both ways. There could be a line if you do the visor first. I usually look at the Visor and if it looks good I tell the customer the options to see what they want to afford. If I'm installing from new, I'll always do full windshield first then visor. Thanks for watching.
@@dennistv598 I personally like the whole thing done myself in Ceramic. You won't gets that dark protection from the sun but you can also go over the 50% with the visor. When I had a visor the sun would bake me from the bottom of the visor with the windshield.
That's tough, it could be contamination getting under the film. How does it look after a week or so? If you still see something it's not bubbles it's most likely dirt. Try the method in show. Peel the film while sitting in the car then install right up to the glass.

Appreciate you!
Looks like it was always there, this is my next project, another great video Wayne 👍🏻
Much appreciated, thanks for watching.
I tinted my car at the weekend btw, a little shaky to start but I was pleased with the finished result, your methods helped a lot 👍🏻

Thank You Cool video!
...even if wasn't tinting it'd be fun to watch with the light on in the car and the music n stuff hahaha yayaaaa
I have plenty of Tinting videos, I like to change things up and keep it interesting. I appreciate you watching. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

@@FadeToBlackLLC plotters are 7000 a Sharpie is only a dollar haha !!!$$ oh and your patterns will fit with a plotter it's a Gamble....

@@FadeToBlackLLC ok yes
is the sunstrip 6 inches ? the legal limit here is 6 would the cops care if i go down to 8 or 7 ? like a inch or two lower ? i drive a truck btw
Honestly I lay it on the glass for looks first.. Usually I do them around 9 inches on most full sized trucks except the Fords. They have a weird shaped glass.
I don't know how the cops are in your area, here we're good!
Your the MAN
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it.
Damn! i need to get me a light like that
Menards ha ha. Rechargeable LED light
@@FadeToBlackLLC what lumen?
Can you remove a visor strip over windshield tint without removing windshield tint ?
I actually did it the other day. Just be careful.
What about when front windshield has certain parts with dot matrix. Would that be a problem?
Just stick it on and get it done.
Great video..

If the car already has visors,to tint the whole windshield you think it should be removed then reapplied?
I've done it both ways. There could be a line if you do the visor first. I usually look at the Visor and if it looks good I tell the customer the options to see what they want to afford.
If I'm installing from new, I'll always do full windshield first then visor.
Thanks for watching.
Does the strip make a all black interior and exterior darker with 15 percent all around
Yes a low visor strip will cut back light coming into the interior, less light entering will make the car darker inside.
Thanks for watching.
@@FadeToBlackLLC thanks can’t wait to get my driver side and passenger front 15 percent done and windsheld strip 5 percent
@@dennistv598 Yes I usually use 20% but I at times do 15% front and always use a 05% for visor strips. Cool, man I hope you like it.
@@FadeToBlackLLC or just do the whole windsheld 50 percent
@@dennistv598 I personally like the whole thing done myself in Ceramic. You won't gets that dark protection from the sun but you can also go over the 50% with the visor.

Hi what was the name of that pink stuff you use to remove the glue off the window? Please.
I think your referring to a different video right? Super Stripper.

Everytime i do a visor strip it has tiny bubbles
That's tough, it could be contamination getting under the film. How does it look after a week or so? If you still see something it's not bubbles it's most likely dirt.
Try the method in show. Peel the film while sitting in the car then install right up to the glass.
Big bro, I cut this patterns on the plotter but always feel they both are not lined up, one is up second one down, any suggestions?
I'm trying to follow, so patterns are off for your visors?
This is a reason why I prefer Hand Cutting. I get it right the first time, it have no idea on how to tweak patterns with the Software.
@@FadeToBlackLLC 2 pcs pattern, just need some tip how you line them up so the are straight
@@foodlover372 is use the factory bottom edge and just cut it out. I show that in the video.
I also have a Playlist of Visor tint installs.
Does the windshield strip work and what does it actually do?
Lol, what? Does it work? The Visor Strip will block out the high sun letting you see the road better. It's one of the most popular pieces I install.

Yep
