Step 1 get the 36" × 6' Gila tint. The 24 " won't cover most rear or front windshield. Step 2 get a 18" extended squeegy to reach behind the rear dash center brake light. Step 3. If outside use Frog Tape so the wind doesn't screw you up while trace cutting. Leave the backing on and transfer the tint inside. Frog Tape again inside the windshield. Remove half the backing and wet the windshield, tint sticky side and slide between the windshield and trim.

To everyone in this thread: literally just go on Craigslist and lookup auto window tint and you’ll probably find a ‘ ‘guy’, if that doesn’t work then go on yelp and call around, a lot of film manufacturers have a lifetime or like 10 year warranty so if they’re an authorized installer just keep the receipt.

Well this video encouraged me to try to do the window tint on my mud truck. Good thing is it's not a very nice truck and I don't drive it very often. I bought the film from Walmart and our local Walmart sells the install kit too. So I went to do the driver side and I messed up I didn't roll the window down to cut listen turn made a huge gap at the bottom but overall the tent laid really well and no air bubbles so I was okay with that. Knowing what I learned on the driver side I tried to implement that into the passenger side. I made sure everything was extremely clean and I trimmed everything extremely well. I even pulled the door panel off for good measure to make sure that I could get the tent to lay flat on the bottom. I learned something very valuable today. Do not do window tint when there's just a very small amount of wind. I started peeling the backing off getting ready to transition it to the inside when a little bit of wind folded my tent over on itself and I tried to separate it which then made it worse and then I tried to pull it apart even more and it made it even worse so then I took it inside and got it laid out straight and I put it on the window and it fits it's the right size but it's crinkled all to hell and there's lines and air pockets everywhere. The moral of the story is you live and you learn and next time I'll know what not to do. Thanks for this video it was extremely helpful

My son and I just did his 2004 Honda Civic and it was a pain in the ass. Would be nice if in these type videos they would explain the importance of handling the tint with extreme caution when transferring from one side to the other. The slightest slip and the film will stick to each other and create crimps when you pull it apart. I highly recommend 2 people handle the film if you don’t know the trick to properly handling and transferring it alone.

I like the black magic tint film video you did were you used the bondo plastic spreader to squeegee the soapy water out from the film. I did the same application as you did but i did the tint install on my bedroom windows a little different than on a car. The only thing it doesn't have are window seals like on the car where you can cut the film slightly larger and tuck it under the window seal to cover any exposing gaps. Doing my room windows i measure the glass and get exact measurements to cut on the film but slightly larger about 1/16'" extra on all sides of the film than install it on the glass and whatever access of film left i cut it as close to the edge of the glass and frame without showing any gaps. i purchased the NT Pro Cutter stainless blade off of ebay to do the job i had one of those plastic tint blades but i wanted to try the stainless blade that you recommended from the black magic tint video. I did one set of windows in 2.5% and the other set in 5%.

That made me upset so I’ve just saved so much money just by doing it myself with you there with me all along. But I took my windows out the car to do the work inside luckily my rear window was already tinted this was my first time and I feel really good about it I did 20% hopefully I don’t get a ticket but the money I saved will pay for the fine and after that I’ll try 35% because I think that is what is technically the Legal darkest idk I don’t drive this car much at night and during the day you Can see inside from the outside so I think I’ll be ok I just want to say thanks a lot for this Very informative video

so new york passed a law recently where now during your annual car inspection they check all windows for tint. cars can only legally have the rear windshield tinted (any %), and 6" eyebrow on front windshield (any %). front & rear side windows have to allow 70% light to pass (which basically means no tint allowed). this law passed & went into effect january 2017. i had to remove the 35% tint i had on my car which bummed me out. while i love having tint for lower temps in summer & privacy, i (and i'm sure many others) are not going to bother with removing & reapplying tint every year to pass inspection (the glue left behind by the tint is the real hassle!). found a company like Gila that sells static cling auto tint called greenfilmusa. purchased 20% and installed on all sides, rear & eyebrow. it's unbelievable how well it looks and it has held up the past few months great! would be cool if you did a review on that product. here are a few pictures of without the static cling tint & with: imgur.com/a/mslpcvb edit - the beauty of static cling tint if it wasn't obvious to someone reading this, is that you can easily remove it, pass inspection with your now see-through windows, and reapply it when you get home in minutes.

Nice! That's what I would recommend and it's good to know Gila also recommends it on the box so they don't just try to stick you with their application solution.

i have used this kit before and have had wrinkles get in the tint to were i redo it. so for me personally i remove the glass from the door completely and take the film 1/8 to the edge of the glass that way you don't get daylight if its to short with the rubber seal. I wouldn't recommend this(i have auto body and paint experience so i know how to disassemble the door) but for my personal and family member cars i don't mind doing it takes over 5hrs though and comes out perfect.

I appreciate your video and after buying the same stuff from Home Depot to tint my residential windows, I have found that the film, along with the kit, is underwhelming at best. So what is ideal? Do you have a tutorial on exterior residential windows or does the same principles apply?

Nice video. I'd like to see how your able to heat shrink it, ie back window on some thing curvy like a crown vic. For it being a thin film I have never had any luck shrinking Gila curvy glass. Also if your using Gila you shoulda went old school with a driver's license as a squeegee and a square razor blade ;)
