BFF Larry Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 I just tinted my back windshield and back side doors 2.5% yesterday. you have to spray the glass and back of the tint and front really wet. Line it up to the corners but do not lay it on it fully. Take the wedge piece and start in the middle pushing down on the tint to the window. Then go from left to right starting from the middle to the sides. Not the top or bottom.

BeatBox Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 flat piece of tint=curved glass= epic fail lol u gotta head up the tint to the shape of the glass, im not exactly sure but its the same thing u would do on like a back window or when doing a shole windshield. id youtube some videos on how to do it, i usually just pay to get that type of stuff done. i can do side windows no problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUDIOADDICT02 Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Definitely need to heat shrink it in order to do it right, but remember you can only shrink tint up & down.

CHEVY4X4BLAZER Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Did you squeegee and trace/cut the film (keeping the liner on) from the outside of the glass? Can you try some "relief" cuts on the film? Other than that just squeegee hard and slow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
