    I got your superior charcoal to do my personal vehicles and I am at my wits end trying to shrink to my 2017 pathfinder. Think I've used half a roll trying and got frustrated so much after failing and left it looking not so good. But now after watching this video I'm going to strip it off and try again with your methods. Maybe you can show doing a rear window on one since no one else seems to have a video using the 17 pathfinder.

    This was the most easy to understand film shrinking vid, the other vids tell you HOW to do tint stuff, but not the WHY. I got too close to the non factory edge and immediately a horizontal finger appeared just like he said! Luckily the window wasn't that curved and it still worked fine, but we'll see if it lifts or peels later because I shrank the wrong edge. It's hard to do the top and bottom without hitting the wrong ends!
