I'm sure it came out great also, but I guess I forgot to mention in the first post that he didn't sand it either. So I'm still not sure what he did exactly.

 

Maybe they used some kind of clear glue.

 

do the winshields now.
oh, sorry, i hate to sound like a super nooob, but what are the dot matrix for? whats it purpose? sorry... thanks

 

Any idea on how to get shitty turning purple tint off the back window other than a ballbat and new glass? "lifetime" tint has turned purple and you can barely see out from the inside, outside hasnt started showing through yet, but its a matter of time. any ideas? sorry to threadjack. Tint looks ******* kick *** by the way!

 

Im debating around 20% or so but that looks pretty good.

What did that run you to get the rear hatch window done?

 

thats freakin dark!! lol the cops would not like that around in my neighborhood lol

 

Looks good, cant wait till I get a motor back in mine to get that 35% on my doors off in favor for something else in the 10-20% range.

 

Looks awsome, clean car!

 

that looks really good but be careful. I would drive around with my windows down and still got 2 tickets..f'kin bs..

 

whats the name and township of the shop the original poster went to

 

They sanded mine down but it came out ok not as good as your tint on the hatch.

 

Damm I Want Mine Like That

 

cant go wrong with a nice black tint! makes the car look 10x sleeker

 

repost pictures

 

Take it back to where you got it done!
Sounds like you were cleaning the tint with the wrong kind of cleaner. You always want to make sure you use an ammonia free window cleaner, otherwise it will cause discoloration. If you were using the right stuff and it turned purple, something isn't right with it. Most warranties on film(good film)will cover discoloration. They will probably try to say you used the wrong type of cleaner.

On topic... that is a damn nice tint job! One of the best I've seen.

 

i think the secret method was sugar water.

 

damn is 15% legal?!?!?

 

I need to Tint my windows, but i dont need another reason to get pulled.

 

what is legal on our cars? Anyway, WTF are you guys talking about?? Sanding down the dot matrix? I'd be ******* pissed!!! Nobody is going to sand ****! If that were the case, they would use a new razor blade not some abrasive pads that will scuff up the glass. But that bs is not necessary.

I sat right next to my car with some brewskis while the guy at the tint shop was putting tints on the ride. The back is one peice that was cut out before being applied to the glass. He cleaned the glass then sprayed water on it which was then squeegied out from beneath the film. I have no gap in the edges of the front windows because he cut the edges freehand instead of using that tool they have that runs along the edges and cuts the tint.

Best $180 i have spent.
Limo tint all around, 2 years and no tickets, and I live in chicago suburbs where any tint on front windows is illegal.

 

Lol, that sucks! I don't have my windows tinted yet, but when I do I'm hoping they'll see I have tinted widows with no front license plate and think, "that guy must be from out of state." That or I'll just get a couple of tickets

The tint looks good, where'd you take it to?
