Why don’t you learn and practice your self until you become skilled and then you can use that skill for other cars or your own an save money. It’s what I did by watching tint studio videos and I do my own car now.
working the air and water out from the middle seems to be one of the most important parts of getting a nice clean install. I recall, one time last year, you said on one of your live streams that working the air out to the sides when doing a glass with the defroster lines is best in getting all the air pockets out. Also, for me and my big hands, I prefer the "Stroke Doctor". I used it on my windshield. It was just easier to do because of my size. Great how to, Matt. Thanks for showing and explaining the process. Always thankful for having learned to tint windows from you. You make it very mechanical for the most part. Repetition is what did it for me. It took me at least 3 times to get the windshield shrinking process down. I think one of the things I noticed that helped me was when I used the dryer sheet, I went over the windshield with 2 dryer sheets. I found it very helpful. Thanks again, Matt!
Question: have you ever seen defroster lines in the back that can cause the foil not to stick ? I have lines of air there and they claim the defroster lines are too thick (2008 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X and nano ceramic tint). Previous (some "3M" tint) was sticking just fine.
Hey there, I am a Tint installer for a dealership as of 4 years, The answer to your question is, No there are not any that do not stick. The issue lies with the fact the defroster lines get very hot compared to a cool/cold glass and being that Tint film prevents and traps heat between it and the glass it creates condensation that quickly dries, over time the moisture causes those areas of the tint adhesive to dry out and become unadhered in those areas first.
You make great videos! Im an amateur tinter. I've done about 15 vehicles, but all with Black magic & Gila films. I just did my first windows with a little higher quality carbon tint from Tint depot... my biggest problem is im use to those low quality films that have far less adhesion. Im having trouble finding the right slip solution ratio for the more aggresive adhesive on the tint depot film. It tacks up too quick, not giving me enough time to slide the film around on the glass. I use j&j baby shampoo & was told to add a few drops of dawn. Ive even over used shampoo & dawn but still seems to tacks too fast. Any suggestions? Im in south texas where an 80 degree day is on the "Cold" side.😂
I've been a tinter/ppf installer for going on 10 years. All of the other guys I work with use baby Shampoo. I use Suave Shampoo & it works like a charm. I finally got one of my guys to try it & now I've converted him. But If you're gonna use baby Shampoo, use about 4-6 drops. No dawn
@@frodcoma973 So I get the blue ocean breeze shampoo in a pump bottle & I put 4/5 pumps in a 32oz Zep bottle. Give it a try and let me know what you think.
Do any installers ever protect the interior from water? Every video I've seen they are splishing and splashing and pouring water all over the place and running it from the squeegee into spots that will run down into pockets that will remain wet and stink after a while, have you guys seen an installer that covers anything up.
Love your videos! Would the green fin work to get behind third break lights? I’ve have problems with the new accords being super tight to get even pressure
Holding entire back window film like that, won’t that cause lots of contaminants? Getting chills looking at it. Sure if I tried the entire back window will turn into braille 💀
I’ll make a follow up video. It’s very clean and the quickest way to install a back window. Hardest part is handling the film. Just don’t bump the car.
Nah this is super clean, try it sometime. Dirt isn’t magic, it comes from bumping things. This is literally peel and touch nothing till it hits the glass.
@@DetroitTintStudio I own a 2nd generation family tinting business for over 50 years . Roll the film for back windows and front windshields all day. I would fire someone working like that in my shop
This is why I pay someone to tint all my vehicles. Its a skill and an art. Well worth the price that they charge and its done right!

just say your lazy without saying your lazy🤦♂
You are so far the best channel for window tinting

I'm watching your video well. The work process is very professional.
I like the titan also for back windows basically a longer version of the side swipe
I always use a titan. It is long and thin but works great for getting a lot of water out
@xgv6844💪💯
Keep up the good work! Love your video.
Thank you for your hard work!!!!!!! 💪💪💪💪😁😁😁
How to avoid damaging of defroster wires? Any tips?
Hey bro, if you don’t have a garage where would you recommend to do the install?

I saw a guy use baby shampoo for his solution

For that heat bro do go 10 drops of baby soap.. it’s too slick let it sit for a min before touching
@@noahshepard7923I’d like to try it with suave, how do you measure it per liter ?

Yeah those new accord back windows are a bitch
Great video, Matt! Thanks
hey Matt, what you can say about Red Titan tool? can it replace a tail fin?
Haven’t used it in a long time but I can see again
Easy method
The more I watch your nice videos, the more I hate the people that installed my tint 😒
What a good tint tax solution to tint windows
gostei do video, mas se fosse meu carro iria reclamar pois molhou todo tampão e os auto falantes....deveria ter protegido.
Where do all the water go? Would be hard to see all the water stain on a 100k plus car
I’d rather shoot myself in the leg then Frankenstein a back window like that
🔫
Now lets Frankenstein a front windshield 😏
I roll the windshield, they are much more difficult to Frankenstein.
@@DetroitTintStudio ik haha im just playin

Thinking the same thing
No way thats a clean install
@@jrvond3357 it is. That's how I tint back windows and they're clean

Old school installation
I'd rather just reverse roll. 😏
All good
Why don’t you you use the reverse roll method for the back window ? That’s the most rookiest move. Guarantee to have contamination
Nah this is super clean, try it sometime. Dirt isn’t magic, it comes from bumping things. This is literally peel and touch nothing till it hits the glass.
