Window tinting / heatshrinking backglass by Texastintchick

Texastintchick tinting a back glass. Before you post a comment: Yes, the film goes on the inside! I know I hold my knife like a girl (I am one!). I like to wet check, when I am tinting by myself I can trim it easier without a light after wet checking. I have been tinting since 1995, I am not a newbie. I have trained several installers. I am good at what I do and enjoy it very much! Chick tinters RULE! :)

i love the way you work , this was the for me the tutorial video to get started with window tinting ! thx

[@jimmie305]

Love the work girl From Fresno Cali. I own a Tint shop here and i love to see a girl tint, Only because here, girls are affraid to get there hand dirty let alone wet. Love it!!

[@TerryTibbs1976]

@imupabove you heat shrink it on the out side, to get the shap of the window, then when you put it on the inside you spray window with lightly soapy water and fit it, pushing all the water out to the bottom and sides, as you take off the backing, spray the glues part so it does not stick together.... have fun...

[@hwudoin]

Awesome job! Thanks for sharing.

[@nugget182]

@eric31291 yes it is true but depends on which way you cut it out. tint has a grain in it like wood you have to cut against the grain. basically the way you roll the film out is the way the grain is. So the grain must be going side to side of the film. then when you shrink it must be shrunk going up and down against the grain. hope that helps you

6:08 scared the shit out of me POP volume 100% ....good work tintdaddy now only if you could drive 1k miles to where i live

[@SolarControlFilms]

Great job!

[@Chevyguyscott]

Awesome Job! Thanks! Hope mine turns out this well... C4 Corvette! Yikes! I think i'm gonna remove the window to do it! Suggestions?

[@855FIGHTER]

thanks for this video, you did a real good job! it was very helpful...thanks to you now i understand how to do this on my car, sorry for my english :-)

[@BEAMERNOOB]

that was the un mistakable sound of a cummins diesel that drove by @ 1:30

[@mastertinter731]

Nice job looks like it shrunk right down.

[@lilRSXs]

oh aight. sound good. thanks. i'll do that this summer. n wat kind of film do u use??

[@TerryTibbs1976]

@TheAndrju its tepped water with a small amount of washing up liqud,,,!

[@pjrbaldo]

Looks, pretty nice! I try to do it by my self, how can I view the inside part! Thanks

[@ProSiNNeR]

Nice job

[@TintTVdotCom]

It's good to watch someone else shrink. I haven't used gloves in a long time, I might break them out again just to double check why I switched to a hard card. I've never wet fit before, but maybe it's cuz I have a plotter? I like how much area you shrink at once. I might hold my gun back a little bit more next time, like you do, and if I'm wearing gloves. BTW, I cant keep my nails long- don't know how you do. :) - Charlotte

[@astrixx100]

DAAMMM GIRL ! U KNOW UR BISSNES!

[@unocamjet]

Just an FYI, I wet check because it makes it easier for me to trim without a light. I also do not like working on the inside, by wet checking I rarely, if ever have fingers or peanuts to heat out. As for the way I pick my knife up... really all that matters is I get the job done right the first time. I am a damn good tinter, even if I was an ugly dude :)

[@pangola12]

fabuloso lo hace tan simple

[@siondalion]

hi your video is much better tha others! but i still have a couple questions if you don't mind? 1. do you cut right to the edge of the glass or are you cutting so it fits into the black part around the edge? 2. when yo apply it to the inside do you open the trunk and apply it from the outside or do you go through the passenger side? thankyou very much for your help hope i can do it as good as you. oh yeah is silver reflex any hard to apply?

[@zlink8]

Read the comments bar lol, she is prepping it to go inside, making it have a nice clean fit before putting it in.

[@D1350Z]

your real good.

[@STREETRACEN4U]

do i have to shrink it to put it on? and will it still look nice and last as long?

[@twobimmers]

may i ask... any specific typr of gloves being used in the heatshrinking process regarding material...u make this look easy btw haha

[@lilRSXs]

good job.. but does it last??

[@typeonegsr]

@tintdaddy What kinda tint do you use? I'm still trying to perfect my technique on the BG, sometimes i have a hard time in the corners on the camrys.

[@mdhalo]

hey im about to learn how to tint windows say i went down to auto zone do they sell good flim or where is the best place to get it and i was wondering where could i get some tinting tools? autozone or car places or is there a better place to. Thanks so much gave a 5 star rating

[@GreenPowerFarm]

I have a nissan 94' truck with a flat, straight back window. I am about to tint it myself. Do you have a few tips of wisdom for me? Thanks very much ...for the awesome video!!!!!! 5 stars!!!!!!!!!!!

[@bigjimmy2225]

@tintdaddy i tried to tint my wife's sisters car i got the side windows good but were i heat shrunk it i got some creases in it could you tell step by step on what you do and look for when you heat shrink it

[@FalloutCustomsTuneLube]

Ive been trying to do my 94 si quarter glass but it wont stop making fingers...but now I see why I need a heat gun....its the same as a paint heat gun right?

[@JacanaProductions]

I was told by a tinter that it was impossible to tint the real window of my 99 A8 easily - is this true. Summin about headrests not being easily removable?

[@casreyrichardson2008]

YOU SHOULD TRY A PRODUCT CALLED GILA. THEY MAKE THE TINT IN 4" STRIPS. IT WOULD TAKE MULTIPLE STRIPS TO COMPLETE. i SAW THE VIDEO AND IT LOOKS WAY EASY. GOOD LUCK

[@MultiXANTIA1]

On witch temperature you setup the dryer at shaping the foils

[@PorkChopify]

@tintdaddy Could you recommend any tint shops further south in Houston than Humble?

[@MrZiggy1979]

and question i wanted to get started in tinting but where do you buy the large sheets of tint at.

[@justinlf16]

what kinda tint are you using, and is there water up under the tint right when ur doing it?

[@haidenmorgan]

okay so from what i understand you can only shrink the tint vertically, does that mean i need to get a 60" wide roll for rear windows or can i use a 40" and run it across the car instead of up and down the car?/???

[@syandgail]

hi i tinted all my side windows on my car but having trouble with rear i used heat gun but it creest and went wrong so i tryed again but no go i dont wot going wrong i keep looking at your vids because wont to learn and do for living that only trouble i have is rear windows hope you can help plsss

[@TerryTibbs1976]

nice job, any one know how i would go about doing a voyagers rear window? i know i can buy the tint pre cut,,,,but is it worth doing it in 2 parts(split) or just one whole sheet?

[@TIBE5]

does it last long when you put the tint on the outside??

[@imupabove]

the tint goes inside right? can you please tell me why did you heat shrink the tint on the outside? im planning to tint my car and it seem the rear piece is going to be hard. any tips?

[@Fingamyaz]

what about the heat thing? those little lines that heat the rear window? so its okay to just place that whole tint inside? wouldnt it mess up the heating? j/w

[@kenmastersmaster]

@tintdaddy hi, I would like to try to tint my car. Is there any way I can tint from the outside rather than inside? I realize it will not last as long but it seems much easier for me to do an outside tint job rather than inside, especially for rear window THanks!!

[@SuperJbro]

can you put the tint on the outside of the back window...

[@perfecttofu421]

is there another video of you putting it on the inside? sorry if i offended you. i thought you knew it went on the inside and you just left it on the outside on purpose... what brand of tint film do you use?

[@simonsezwhat1]

You make it look so easy. But isn't the vinyl supposed to be installed on the inside?

[@ItzCashew]

How much for a tint job on a 350z? I am in Houston, my window motor failed so it started tearing up my tint by going up and down sporadically.

[@ProfessionalDad]

I enjoyed the audio most of all

[@Ohnanawhatsmynamee]

@tintdaddy alrighttt thanks

[@AUTOMIHAI]

The film used is a special one? I mean it's written on it "heat shrink", or you could use any film?

[@Ohnanawhatsmynamee]

how much does window tinting cost to get it done at a shop? for a 4dr honda

[@Jerlemi2]

she's molding it to the window from the outside. then she applies the molded tint to the inside

[@Aguilaz4ever]

Whait why outside ? And can you do a update video I Wanna se how the weather treated this tint

[@georgeGTmods]

At the beginning..was the window dry?

[@iPhoneAppReviewer]

How many watts is that heat gun?

[@FL4TOM]

what kind of tint is that? And where did you get it?

[@dtrjoey]

What would happen if u didnt shrink the tint?

[@badderthanyou]

IS there a part 2?

[@Dopingboss]

can you do peugeon 307 universal back window ?

[@kbaldeo]

WOW... you obviously have to get the shape contour of the glass from the outside then apply it to the inside!!!

[@sycklylow]

Do you find your method easier than the "H" method? From the videos Ive seen, the "H" method seems much easier and faster

[@yukonrott]

hey can i hold the light for ya? ive tinted many windows in my day.. some turn out great and others i rip off when i get pissed... never had to heat shrink it.. i use a little trick i call tape hahah when ya get the fingers i get it nice and dry along the edge and put a lil piece of tape there till i can get it to stick.. ya it eventually peels up but i got a 60/60 guarantee on every tint job.. its 60 seconds or 60 miles whichever comes first. hahahah good work

[@luismares1]

nine good work lady

[@087101eddy]

what kind of firm are you using?

[@lukeb0319]

I wished you would have continued and shown this being placed on the inside of the glass...

[@MrZiggy1979]

@casreyrichardson2008 hey question where you see that video at..? i wanted to chech dat out myself

[@AngryK9]

People who don't know the tinting process think it's a long, drawn-out and complex endeavor, but it's really quite easy. Still, it's best to let a pro do it unless you have the time, money to waste and the balls to experiment on your own car. =p Expect your first DIY job to look like crap. That is just the way it is.

[@vipstash]

i can never shrink dried, i have to have it wet ,and i have tried it many times but failed

[@pjean07]

Hi, what brand of film are you using?

[@perfecttofu421]

the film is supposed to go on the inside (looks at description) but you put it on the outside?

[@luthisk8]

Esse ai manja...

[@slikpik88]

Doesn't the tint go on the inside to avoid damage to tint??

[@randumbuller]

is ther special tint for shrinking it with heat? ive tried this a few times with some ghetto walmart tint and it just burns . . . . . haha.

[@attrzz]

what kinda gloves are those?

[@maximusprimus01]

I like the way you do it, cause it makes it more perfect are you a virgo(zodiac sign) or sumtin' coz you're a perfectionist doin' what you've been doin' good job.

[@stargis777]

Dont we have to put the tint on the INSIDE??

[@BUCHACHAVA]

u should tint your windows inside, not outside. effect is different, and it want last long. In first couple of weeks u'll have bunch of scratches on the window...

[@Hless421]

the heating makes the plastic achieve final form. its just another step....

[@147andreluiz]

@simonsezwhat1 "But isn't the vinyl supposed to be installed on the inside?" I think the job is not finished.... after shrinking, modeling and cutting (on the outside), you take off the plastic and installed on the inside but I not a professional.... I'm not sure

[@147andreluiz]

@SERGIOOESP vc quer aprender a aplicar o filme? perguntou algo sobre modelar? nao entendi.....

[@iwuzyou]

i use the dry shrink with baby powder.. i have heard of the dryer sheets.. anyone use these. i noticed she is not using baby powder(what i was taught to use)

[@aminek1]

Tint me please..... LOL nice job

[@badbowtie73]

i cant dry shrink to save my ass. I do about 1 or 2 cars a month. seems like if i did more than that i would be able to get it down. Do you use dryer sheets, starch, nothing at all?

[@bernyyymac]

Great work hottie =)

[@yunikG]

how the hell the film goes on the inside since i do believe its bigger on the outside.

[@justyna4276]

NO DISRESPECT, BUT THAT REAR SCREEN IS EASY TO HEAT SHRINK. DO YOU HAVE ANY VIDS WITH MORE DIFFICULT SCREENS LIKE GOLF Mk 5 OR VW BEATLE?

[@HaluzniciZV]

what is she wearing at hands??

[@portugalmen]

nice girl!!!!elle est tres jolie!!!

[@typeonegsr]

I have to agree w other people, you are hot! Is suntek easier to shrink than llumar?

[@kc2zxl]

I guess you professional tint to make it shrink like that??

[@mobilemoe]

Hey I have seen you on TD. Its nice to see a hot chick tinting! LOL. Dont see many lady's that can tint. actually your that second woman that I know in the usa that can tint, there is a woman name sam in sacramento ca. that is very good. kraving.

[@Vic3D]

@TIBE5 read the motherfucking description

[@mifan93]

[@Screammy89]

[@Bryanx89]

[@AlphaXX44]

350-450

[@bushvalk2008]

[@tvvdo]

[@krashdown102]

duh!

[@PUBLICSAFETYLEDS]

This video would have been okay if you would have explained what you were doing while you were doing it. Instead all this video is, is a video showing you tinting the rear window of a blue Toyota. I give this video a (1) one on a (5) star rating scale.
