have a pro do it. don't try it yourself. not worth the hassle. so many little things that I would have never guessed that is needed when doing tint. so unless you know exactly how to do it and have done if before, I would advise against it. I see you are from ohio, you around the north central of the state?

llumar is the freaking bomb though, if you really want a brand, but you can't get it unless you go to a dealer (someone who does tint anyways)

mid-ohio auto styling did my tint and did one hell of a job. it's about a 2 hour trek from lime though.

pardon my salty car.

Im a big fan of Suntek Carbon, also got a few rolls on hand of Madico as well, and used Llumar hugely in the past..

Im no pro by any means, but can do great jobs never really have any issues except working outside doing it, and takes me a tad longer than a pro but ehh.

3M is good, but there are better brands for the money. Johnsons film is also great, but again expensive and llumar falls into the expensive category as well.

My tahoe and my buddies Yukon both got Suntek Carbon 5%, my Cadillac is Madico 5%

No, this isnt tinted on the outside, just trimming the tint to the window pre installation..

And im very limited on space to lay out tint especially for long or big windows. Ha

It was windy as hell so I had to tape the crap down to get it cut somewhat to a manageable size.

My guy uses SolarGard. I got a 15% sunstrip, 15% on front 2 windows, and 5% on the rest.

I haven't had any problems with it. What really shocked me though is how much heat it blocks in the summer. My seatbelt, steering wheel, ebrake lever, and shift knob used to burn the shit out of me when I went out on my lunch break. After getting it installed, those parts are just warm to the touch.
