Re: window tint.
do you know if water can be used on tints like it can be used on vinyl so the bubbles push out easier?nath2905 wrote:ur best payin sum1

Re: window tint.
the best way to do it is using soapy water and a credit card or something like that
i have never done it before but my friends dad did it on his car and it come out looking
good just take your time don't rush it if that helps

Re: window tint.
yh u can
but u just have to give it a few days dry out after,
so u might be best doing it wen it warms up
unless you have a warm garage
thats if you attempt it

Re: window tint.
I tried it and managed to get 1 on .....sortof. Tried the second 1 and after 4 hours of stress ripped it off and I'm not going to try again.

Re: window tint.
well i have decided i am going to give it a go later on today if i can figure out how to post pics up of the end result i will do. it might not turn out very good but its worth a try. if it looks crap it will be coming straight off and going to a proper window tint company.
