okay, I am conceding to failure on this one, thanks to mother nature needing to make a gust of mother effing wind just as I pulled the tint from it's protective layer, which folded it onto itself...so pissed...so DAMN PISSED

If you take some soapy spray and spray the outside of the window to tint, then you lay the tint on backing side out it will suction. Makes pulling the backing off alot easier. Then you can spray the contact side of the tint and transfer it from the outside of the window to the inside.

Yeah I did my own and had to do the front pass window like three times. I finally talked to a guy that I work with who does tinting on the side and he showed me all the little tricks. Adam, if you can get the back window done you could go to the parts house and get one roll of some of the better stuff they sell and do the fronts. At least then the fronts would match each other. Its not that hard to trim them yourself.

Damn that crap always happens, it could be a very calm day with no wind but the moment you try to do something such as what your doing Adam the wind blows or worse. That happened to me while I was masking up the truck getting ready to paint it and what happened even worse was that on a clear sunny day a freaking storm came out of nowhere, so Iknow how that feels, it seems to always happen
