Dear All

 

I am looking for a little advice from the film sticking masters of this forum, or anyone that has done there own tinting, successfully.

 

I have done my rear quaters without a problem, however, I am looking to also do the front/sides but cant work out what the best way is to get a nice smooth cut along the top edge of the glass.

 

Can anyone offer any advice?

The guy who did mine had a scalpel with a pen taped to it so the pen stuck out past the point of the blade if that makes sense.

He could then rest the pen on the top of the glass and the blade was a set distance from the top edge the whole way round.

 

He did the rear screen by laying the film upside down on the outside of the window and cutting it round as a template - then all he had to do was stick it on the inside ready cut!

 

He'd been doing it 12 years too and had somehow got himself a free BMW X5 from the BMW dealer for doing their cars! Lucky git!

Thanks mate. That makes perfect sence. I will give it a go.

 

Simple but effective. Why didn't I think of that.

 

D'oh!
