I used water first time with heat gun. No bubbles. Just tinted them again with divx last week. No water and a heat gun again. No bubbles after I finished , even 24hrs later. Figured I was good. Now they look like they have teenage acne. I’m gonna try and find this brand of tint. Dreading removing the adhesive for a 2nd time. Thanks for the video man

[@shometint]

Several methods to do it, but results can vary. Glad the video can help ya!

Thanks for this video. About to tint my tail lights. Good stuff. Cheers!

[@shometint]

Let us know how it turns out!

[@LIVEEVENTINNOVATIONS]

@@shometint Well, I have done one tail light so far. I would give it a B+. However, I destroyed the first sheet of material trying. The problem is my tail light is an extremely challenging shape I now realize. Its curved the entire way, and is long all the way to a sharp point. The material wants to bunch up. Imagine a very elongated teardrop, cut in half. Its not the point part is hard. Its the spherical section. But, not impossible. I will post a final photo somewhere and link it. Thanks again.

[@LIVEEVENTINNOVATIONS]

@@shometint Damn I just watched the video again and realize I didn't follow how you did it exactly. I'm going to correct and try it on the second. You start in the middle of the light, and I started on an edge. Let's see how number 2 goes more closely following you. Thanks.

How do you wrap the little interior trim. Like around air vents and such

Sometimes we remove it and have it auto flexed but if the surface is flat and smooth we are able to wrap it. Please be careful when trimming those pieces out because customers hate it when you cut the car. 😉

@@shometinthow did it go ? Is it holding up good? A lot of folks seriously recommended to not buy headlight tints from temu special based off the price because it’s bad quality and your headlights will cause mini acne looking bubble from the heat caused by the headlights being hot

Trying to tint my headlights. Should I spray the tint and or headlight with soapy water? Would a hair dryer be suffient enough if I'm scared a heat gun will damage my car?

[@shometint]

You can do it wet, but doing it dry would be the way we would recommend it be installed. A heat gun is what we would recommend. The film is supposed to be post heated to 200° and a hair dryer won't get it that hot. You could remove your headlights prior to installation if you're afraid of your paint getting too hot.

my god , i tried using vvivd wrap , i thought i was going to have a stroke , it was thick film

[@Priceless406]

so whats the difference between window tint and headlight tint?

[@shometint]

Both are made for their specific applications. You would not get the desired results if you were to switch the roles of the material. One is meant for inside, away from the elements. The other is designed for outdoor use and has more flexible properties to curve around newer more challenging angles some new lights have. Window tint would not survive such severe turns/curves that the headlights have.

You showed the cut point between the light and the body - something that’s rarely made clear on YT. Thank you.
