I used pre-cut 15% Lexen tint on my car windows and it came out great! No fingers or bubbles. This was 3 years ago, the tint still looks great and has not bubbled or changed colors.
for what car and how much was it? it shows 29.99 for pre cuts, i dont know if this is just the service to cut the tint, or the actual tint cut for my car.
You have to apply a ridiculous amount of solution imo. I tried to install precut today. It truly takes a ton of solution. My driver door ended up with a couple creases and those well known little bubbles that f'd it up
Did he stick the film ON TO the soapy water? Is that what you do? I'll be doing this myself soon and I really can't find a clear instructional ANYWHERE !!!!
roadrunnerblink I'll be doing it too, watched a few vids of tinting. You clean window first, get it dry then spray again, get it good and wet. Apply film. But I always thought you apply tint from outside.
sorry for year late comment but it seems you didn’t get any good feedback. Yes you are supposed to apply onto soapy water. The soapy water acts as a lubricant so you can slide the film to position it. Once you have it in position, using a squeegee will push all that air AND soapy water out from under the film leaving you with a vacuum, causing the film to be sucked onto the glass essentially.
Hello lexen I am having trouble installing this where can I get all the stuff you used to install this and do I have to place the tint on the outside of the window first?? I really need an explanation
You place the tint on the outside of the window with the release liner towards you to shrink the fingers out of the window tint to the curvature of the window you are working on. Then, peel the release liner back has he did then apply the tint with the adhesive side out to the inside of the window.
Hi cool vid looking for advise.i am havin air bubbles appear even though I am pressing quite hard to the film its only on the sides of a window middle top and bottom are fine just the sides
Does yours have a sticky side? Mine has a sticky side and I wonder if I still need to use soap water, or if that is going to kill the adhesive. It seems almost impossible to dry fit it
Not really trying to buy stuff from your website so maybe in the detailed Box you could leave a description of the solution you're using to clean the windows in what not would be appreciated
Before I buy this I just want to know like the dimentions that they come in like for example 20 "(inch) by 20 ft. Would that cover a whole window. No clue. Can anyone help me out
They are not pre shruk. You don't really need to heat shrink the side windows becuz they are flat. But u need to heat shrink back windshield becuz they r curved otherwise it will not fit properly.
My passenger window wont roll down changed the motor switched fuses changed the up and down switch and made sure it's on track nothing will that be an issue putting tints on ?
If you did all I would assume that their is an issue in the wiring to the motor/switch. I would have both tested to see if they're receiving power. As far as tinting I've never done it myself but I see no reason as to why you couldn't install it without rolling the window down but obviously you won't be able to cover the glass that is tucked into the weather stripping.

@@uptownsfinest1598 Yeah there's not much you can really do other than gaining experience on that I would imagine. I mean if it's only a couple of air bubbles you can take a razor blade and poke a hole and try to see if you can get them out but I'm not sure I'd recommend it.
@@DavidHernandez-ue4fz something like 3% and it depends on the weather. like if you live in high humidity or heat, so adjust more or less soap for evaporation because too little and you can't move the film and it tacks to the glass before you have time to adjust. Too much soap and it affects the long term success of the adhesive of the film
Do you need heat gun to shrink tint and wich set of squiggees did use for all doors what type a solution did you use,is it baby shampoo please let me know thanks
If you’re still interesting in trying it, try plastic bags with masking tape to protect your controls for peace of mind. That is what I will be doing when I give this a shot.
Why so much water? A light spritz from a spray bottle is plenty. You might as well be trying to apply it with a running garden hose. All this video taught me was to make sure if I go to a shop that they don't do it this way.
What ever gets the job done right, that’s all I care about. Water dries, but I can understand why you are fast to say someone with skill is not up to your par. Makes you feel better about yourself. I’m sorry you feel this way.
Dude, since when do you separate the plys on anything. How many ply is about the tint. Every tint has liner. 1ply is thinner and flimsier. To everyone: Don't talk like you know things and pull explanations out of your rear. Don't spread misinformation.

The instructions that come with the kit leave a lot to be desired that's for sure.
Wow you make this look easy but I know it takes a lot of skill!
I notice on your website it says the film needs to be best shrunk, at what point in this process is that done?
THE MOST SIMPLIEST WAY TO DO IT AND QUICK👍🏿👌🏿✌🏿
Skills! Great video. No talking. Just doing. Thanks!
We use Johnson baby shampoo therefore it is safe on car interior. We now use micro fiber towels!
For the spray, you use Johnson baby shampoo, does it need to be diluted?
When you spray too much water on the film you’re not afraid to damage any electrical on the window?

Applied from the outside so that it can get scratched by debris and blow away? lol

gav clark do you have felt on the sides. Tape them up if you do
or you didn't razor clean the inside of the glass and clean the gasket area where it bubbles up
What is the White card your using to to pull the weather seal back with? I have looked everywhere trying to find one and i cant. Thank you
Gemini Window Tinting dude use a credit card or something or a room key

You have to use a soap solution

They are not pre shruk. You don't really need to heat shrink the side windows becuz they are flat. But u need to heat shrink back windshield becuz they r curved otherwise it will not fit properly.
Is lexen tint a brand you recommend?
Yep
Can you open the window without the tint coming off?
you have to wait 2-4 days so the tint adhesive dries down and then you can roll your windows.

you can use any brand baby shampoo or dish soap.

Which dish Palmolive soap how many water.
Incase you spray some in your eye...No more tears
Some installers prefer the slip of baby shampoo over dawn.
I used dishes soap it’s was so bad when I spray it it dries what type
soap you used
can use shampoo also
No it is not preshrunk. You can use heat gun to shrink a little or no need at all.
Good job
You forgot to squeege the bottom, but overall did a good job
is that liquid the glue too
Do you need heat gun to shrink tint and wich set of squiggees did use for all doors what type a solution did you use,is it baby shampoo please let me know thanks
you dont have to heat shrink for the side windows.
you can also purchase a complete window tint tools kit from amazon or ebay.there you can purchase it under $20 for complete professional tint tools
Love the fact you have to '' wash '' all of the door card, electrical switches /buttons, water inside the door etc to install it....
If you’re still interesting in trying it, try plastic bags with masking tape to protect your controls for peace of mind. That is what I will be doing when I give this a shot.

Did you use a heat gun to finish the tint film?
no I did not use heat gun to finish it up on side door windows, but it helps if you can use heat gun.
lexenauto ok thanks
so when you buy precut tint, you dont have to use a heat gun at all? or shrink it?
Yes you need to use a heat gun if you have curved side door windows, and you must use heat gun on the back windshield.
Wow korean pop song!! 불타오르네~~!!

why is it applied on both sides of the window, can't it be applied only on the inner side?
It's fitted outside and installed inside
nice job
Do you need to use heat gun?
You can use a heat gun to remove the fingers at the bottom area of the window film if you have curved windows.
hey, those pink hard card is scratch free on films?? where can i buy this from? thank you :)
We only include the small yellow squeegee in our precut tint kit. Thank you.
lexenauto if we buy the pre cut tint do we have to do any shrinking with a heat gun on the rear Glass
