I think it’s 100% worth mentioning that unless you have significant patience . You should absolutely hire a professional for tint. Much easier/better result. 😂
Yes the side doors such a breeze… back and front shields I rip the tint 3 times and I want to murder someone so bad. 😆 I ran out of tint guess try again once the other comes in
Yes it is tedious but it is absolutely worth it to learn it. I am no professional and I don't even know how to cut the tint but I have been installing my own tints on all my cars and families car since I was 15. And they come out flawless. Yes you mess up a couple of curved windshields tints with the heat gun at first. But after that it's like stick shift. Fyi I am now 31 and I still don't know how to cut tint film. But for me it is not worth it to learn it. On eBay you could buy pre-cut tint for all your window for 30 dollar shipped. All I do is line it up on my window and squeegee it on and it's always flawless no need to cut anything out.
Would there be any additional benefit to laying the dash towel down first, then tucking the soak rope in, holding the towel in place and basically sealing everything off?
If you cut out the tab on the outside, you can hit it with heat to eliminate fingers from popping up as well as reducing debris getting in the film that may have stuck to the mirror mount.
Damn I need that cuz I am not a fan of windshield tinting but I am a fan of blocking as much UV as possible. I have 5% all around on my coupe and it’s ceramic and I can tell everyone first hand that it truly helps! I took a road trip to Las Vegas and it did NOT feel hot in my car. I had the AC on low for the whole trip and me, my gf, and my dog were all comfortable inside and the glass was not hot at all. I can only imagine how much cooler it would be with the windshield blocking UV also haha. I am pretty confident in my DIY skills so I might pick this up and do it myself. I love it. Thank you for sharing
I appreciate the fact that you go through so many extra steps as an installer ( ie, soap rope, less mess methods, extra cleaning steps, not scratching the glass during trimming) but you're wearing a metal wedding band? Not sure how durable the tint(s) is (are) but wouldn't that scratch it or mark it?
Another huge benefit that folks don't mention is that tinting your windows is a great way to reduce wind noise... it's not going to be silent, but the difference after you put a ceramic sheet on your windshield (better yet all your windows!!) is awesome!
renegtz25 I waited till I was installing a new sticker.....once windshield was tinted then I placed the sticker on the outside of the tint (still on the inside of the vehicle) .....now I can peel off the registration sticker without using a scraper
I worry about this, have a new sticker ready and ready to peel off oldto do this, also removed mirror, not sure if a hole can be cut for the metal or if i have to remove it and regkue it but glueing it to tint itll pull it down so gotta cut a hole regardless, and worried about peeling the registration sticker and it taking the tint too
This is a real longshot, but can you do a diy on a c4 corvette back glass? I feel it would be difficult to do because of limited space and the massive curve. But a great walkthrough, I appreciate it!
This was one of the first videos I had watched regarding windshield tint. When I finally got around to having it done, I recognized the Soak Shield ropes they were using at the shop. LOL
I'm gonna post pics of my car between you and a couple other channels I had no experience but am in progress of tinting my vehicle on my own it will take me a couple weekends and even though I think it could be better it still looks ok so far I wanted to show my appreciation. Keep up the good work
Wow you make that look so smooth and easy. I’m debating using 70 or 50 on my front windshield. 70 doesn’t look like anything and I’m worried it won’t to much. 50 might look too obvious and I don’t want any tickets for tint.
get 50% trust me, you probably wouldnt even get a ticket for 50%. it’s barely noticable, i doubt any cop would even pick up on it. i personally had 20% on my front windshield, and never got pulled over, not for tints at least. but to me 20% wasn’t enough so i’m going to go 5% all around, hence why i came to this video lol. But with 50%, i highly doubt you’ll get into trouble. anything over 35% is pretty safe, almost no one can tell the difference, especially while driving
How is the geoshield as far as clarity goes, I went with 3m crystalline 70% on my windshield and it has a grainy texture when looking at contrasting colors that is quite annoying
Use a blackout film if you tell the installer u dont want white dots he shld have the blackout my boy uses it on my vehicles. Primo black and no dots 👍🏽
I had tints put on my front windows and 4 days later I still see some bubbles. Tint place needs to redo right? I've been getting tints for 20 yrs so I know the bubbles should not still be there. It's ticking me off :) You do such a nice job.
I have one concern. In states like mine, Texas, that require a sticker like registration or inspection stickers, wouldn’t the film get damaged when the sticker is scrapped off every year?
Can you make it look any easier. That takes lots and lots of cars under your belt to have that level of pre thought. To the untrained eye it looks dead simple. But the trained Eye sees all the experience in motion. Well done.
I want heat in in the winter, I will just stick to the aesthetics of 20% tint for my f150, good job btw. I've been slowly getting into this for a side hustle. If I don't go broke first I think I could be pretty good at it.
@@jalene150 yeah the sun will warm the car up as much as the other cars it just takes longer with this type of tint and when you use your heat it traps it in the car better
Took me a LONG time to figure this out but I think: the film is liner+film, no extra liner on the inside like you'd find on vinyl. He peeled back the liner BEFORE starting the unroll, and wrapped it around to the back side of the film where it stuck in the water. That's why it's a few inches shy of the edge when he starts "peeling" it - he's actually been peeling it off the film as the film unrolls, with the excess around back towards him.
How would you handle labels / stickers that must be affixed on the windscreen such as pocket holder for car registration label and annual car warrant of fitness sticker (we have that here in New Zealand) ? Removing those would rip the tint film, I believe. Thanks for the video.
Good question. Hardly any noticeable haze from this particular ceramic. they all seem to have some low angle haze. that's just from certain time the sun light hits the glass at a low angle. the majority of the time is completely clear.
@@Hardcoreweather1 huper yeaaaaa! All I use. Better than llumar. Crystal clear. Once dries same ol view unless u go dark then of course reflection is greater
This would be great in arizona, help save your dash and headliner edge along windshield. I must admit I've never heard of doing it but I like it hotter than hell in Arizona
Well, u make it look easy. Attempting to do my 2000 corvette this week. I notice from what I can see u maybe cut about 1/4 inch past the black windshield border, is that about right? Thanks, great video!
I noticed you didnt preshrink the ceramic film before you installed it? Also, have you tinted RV windshields? Love to see a video. Your reverse roll up method looks like a good solution for doing my RV winshield. Is there any reason to install a darker "eye brow" if Im using ceramic film for the entire windshield? Thanks!
We got an RV last year and the full windshield is tinted but I want to redo it. It also has a visor strip on it and I love it being tinted. The window is way to big to have no tint.
I watched your video, I ordered film. I put that on glass, cut it and I noticed, that film is 2 sided. I came back here and found that you are removeing very same. So now my question is. Whitch side is the one that has to be removed?
Excellent video... im being encouraged to go with madico winces 70 ceramic for the windshield. i haven't seen it in person but im told it has a blue hue.. your 70 windshield tint doesn't seem to have a blue hue to it.. or does it. are you familiar with the wincos 70?
What is it called that you scrub the windshield with? I normally been using razor blades for the last 3 years and will get dirt here and there still in the windshield film
So how do you take off the registration sticker every year without damaging the tint. I’m Texas the registration stickers are on the inside driver side bottom corner.
i need my front windshield tinted this summer, all my other windows are tinted but i feel the heat is coming in the front since i have not tint that yet lols.
I'm confused too watched twice & the protection film seems to come off towards him. Will be tinting mt car soon so it will be nice to know the proper direction.
@@penangtv6108 You have to take the film off and stick the side that was just exposed...to the screen. It might be the angle but if my eyes see that how it looks, Im totally confused.

I really like this. I have waiting to tint mine to 32%. The only problem I have is, here in Georgia you can't apply any tint to the front windshield. I know it really can't be seen, but if one even notices it here they will write a ticket quickly. Maybe one day they will allow something like that here. I hate driving at night cause some people get the very bright bulbs and makes it harder for other drivers to see.
@@codycis I do have sensitive eyes. I wear glasses also. The issue is that the law states no tint on the windshield and a doctor can't trump the law. The law os the law. Sure some cops may over look it if I had something from a doctor, but the tickets would add up after a while and wouldn't be worth it in the long run.
@@bbay1977 I have 35% on my front and haven't had an issue with it . But you never know what can happen. I have a doctor's note for my tint just in case they give me a problem
@@codycis oh okay I will have to check on it then. It also may just be where you are located at too. I'm here in Georgia and they are hard in some county's here
What do you do when you can't take the mirror off? I won't take a mirror off unless it has a set screw. Seen to many break when trying to get the clip style off
I noticed you were using some sort of white line around the windshield when you were making your cuts, what is that ??? I’d like to buy that for my next tint job
I have a question, I have a 2006 Lexus GS and surprisingly the glare on the dash reflecting the front windshield is extremely high to the point where sometimes we can’t drive is this going to help that glare reflect showing of the dashboard to the windshield?
I don't understand how you build off the clear plastic when you were in the car so the way you rolled it up the clear plastic would be towards the window you build it from the back end so that makes you pilled off the window tint
where do you take that white surounding frame on the glass? Does it come in forms or is it freehand applied? Do you cut the tint directly on the white strip or behind it or in front of it? Greeetings from Australia
I tried to tint a window on my car a couple times but it was terrible. I couldn't get the fingers out the bottom with the heat gun. Every time I would smooth one out two more would appear beside it.
How do i do this in New york? We have to place a registration and inspection sticker on the inside of our windshield, and then scrape it off with a razor every 1 and 2 years, this will damage the tint.. advice?
Like fords theres nothing I've seen done. Use a vinyl tint or black out. My friend has a shop and he tints all my stuff he cut around dot matrix and put some blackout film of some sort there so there's no white and looks awesome!!! Was on a dodge dart up top in middle
You mentioned that the windshield tinting is good for reducing UV transmission, but doesn't the laminated glass of modern windshields already block UV transmission?
You'll be surprised when you see the difference between nice films and original car cars tinted glass. Films are way much better, specially like this video, very clear, almost as there's nothing there, this is useful at night.
Hello, need some guidance .I have got my car tinted to 35% with Lumbar ceramic tint , but the tint installer said he can’t tint the rear windows as they are factory tinted already (around 40 %) and any kind of tint on them will make them illegal. Is there a way I can match them with my front windows. Because now front windows look little darker then rear. Thanks
Awesome video. Great content and all that. But you should remind people that tinting your windshield or side windows will cause a vehicle to fail most state and provincial yearly inspections
@@XillOverdrive pretty sure they said that because you will have to install a sticker to the windshield and scrape it off (annually btw) for the inspection. they dont really check too much on the light percentage passing through it

If u want a clean look leave as is and carry in your vehicle. The cut out looks unprofessional
Stay True inspection stickers must be glued to the inside of the window.
And scraped off and replaced every year.
And besides that, tint on the windshield is illegal in every state.

Will it be harder to see through the windshield when the sun is hitting it since there’s usually ceramic “haze”?

You can also get ceramic 80% that is significantly closer to clear than the 70 and still cuts UV by 99%, provides some IR and heat rejection.

Does this have any effect on winter time fogging?
How are you doing ?? How do you open the plastic from above? It should be low

I do have a huge question should I remove the manufacturer and SiriusXM radio type stickers on windows before tinting? Or can I just tint over them ??
Is ASWF overall better than 3M for window films? Many thanks
I don't understand how you build off the clear plastic when you were in the car so the way you rolled it up the clear plastic would be towards the window you build it from the back end so that makes you pilled off the window tint
where do you take that white surounding frame on the glass? Does it come in forms or is it freehand applied? Do you cut the tint directly on the white strip or behind it or in front of it?

I tried to tint a window on my car a couple times but it was terrible. I couldn't get the fingers out the bottom with the heat gun. Every time I would smooth one out two more would appear beside it.
That is great the way you do it and it looks so easy cause you are smart !!!
I always, always, always get debris when I reverse roll. It seems to stream down from above. Anyway you found to combat that?
Are you reverse rolling a windshield ? Or back window ?
How do i do this in New york? We have to place a registration and inspection sticker on the inside of our windshield, and then scrape it off with a razor every 1 and 2 years, this will damage the tint.. advice?
Wondering what's the length and width of the window tint roll you using?
What can be done about the dashboard reflecting on to the windshield it's incredibly annoying
Nice video. Have you found any issues and or solutions with the dot matrix windows and the blotches left behind??
Like fords theres nothing I've seen done. Use a vinyl tint or black out. My friend has a shop and he tints all my stuff he cut around dot matrix and put some blackout film of some sort there so there's no white and looks awesome!!! Was on a dodge dart up top in middle
You mentioned that the windshield tinting is good for reducing UV transmission, but doesn't the laminated glass of modern windshields already block UV transmission?
Yes it does, but it's not as effective as film.
You'll be surprised when you see the difference between nice films and original car cars tinted glass. Films are way much better, specially like this video, very clear, almost as there's nothing there, this is useful at night.
Do polarized sunglasses work with this tint?
Hello, need some guidance .I have got my car tinted to 35% with
Lumbar ceramic tint , but the tint installer said he can’t tint the rear windows as they are factory tinted already (around 40 %) and any kind of tint on them will make them illegal. Is there a way I can match them with my front windows. Because now front windows look little darker then rear. Thanks
Does this still work in 2020
How do you cut around the rear view mount? Can’t find any videos on it
What's that white tape your placed around the windshield? I tried searching previous videos but couldn't find it.
Like from Russia.
What do you do about inspection stickers on the windshield?
What size film is required to tint a front windshield?
Where are the inspection/registration stickers?
Did you use your own car for this video or a customer’s car?
Whats the price for tint winshield with basic tint film my friend
I wish you showed a before and after shot of the inside looking out
You couldn't really tell a difference
you made it look so f.. easy!!! nice video!!
Awesome video. Great content and all that. But you should remind people that tinting your windshield or side windows will cause a vehicle to fail most state and provincial yearly inspections
I think, this being an almost transparent film, might not be called as 'tinted'?
@@XillOverdrive pretty sure they said that because you will have to install a sticker to the windshield and scrape it off (annually btw) for the inspection. they dont really check too much on the light percentage passing through it
