ive done all ma tints its a pice of piss

tip: get an empty spray bottle put some warm water in and a shit load of baby oil, spray it all over the glass and the tinting film then u will be able to move the tint pretty easy on the glass if u fuck up gat a credit card and push out all the air bubbles, u will get most of em out but some will keep coming in at the edge of the glass just leave em to dry for a bit then push em out that way they will it will stick easier good look m8 hope it helps let us know how u got on

i have done mine, and i can tell you now, its a nightmare to do smileys/smiley3.gif . you need loootttss of patience plenty of water with a tad of washing up liquid in it, clean grease free windows,a dust free environment no wind. (ideal place wood be somesort of garage.) i used a chrome to black a defender kit so half the battle had been done and even with these it awkward. I think its wll worth paying for a pro to do it
