  • 1999 Pontiac Trans Am Window Tint Installation (Back Window PITA!)
    This customer needed new Window Tint on his 1999 Pontiac Trans Am/Firebird. First I had to strip all of the
    old WIndow Tint. I used a steamer to remove the old window tint and the rear glass was a major PITA. Removing old tint from a
    rear glass is never fun. I installed 35% on the fronts and 20% Reverse Roll Tint method to get the large piece of film onto
    the rear glass. You have to stretch the lower area of the film or use a heating Pocket method to shape the film to the glass.
    Yes these Pontiacs and older Camaro back glass pieces can be tough to do. So people should know why you charge more for your work
    becuase it takes a lot more effort to this window tint installation. This probably isn't a good tint install for a beginner, the rear glass can
    be very frustrating.

    Impressive! I tinted my `99 TA side windows but left it to the pros to do that back window. Thanks to the GSP, I removed it - but not the back window! It was only 20%. I'm going to put it on. Pre-fitting with heat is the key. I always removed my door panels ... but I like how you were able to slip it under the seal.

      Yeah when you do the "Pull" method it creates a lot of tension on the bottom and makes it lift. I recently found another method a guy posted that took half the to install.. Probably even less!

      I can't say, not knowing what it looks like myself? Is it this same car? The dot matrix on these is pretty thick? It's possible it just didn't lay down well?
      There are some tricks to do but if you don't ask then they might have just did what they could and left it alone. It's tough at times because we don't know how certain things will turn out until we don't them.
      I usually just tell the customer or ask if they want me to put more work into it with an additional charge because it's more time and work.

      3M is not the only brand in the world. People that say 3M have no idea of brands out there. First probably check with your local Tint shop and see what they carry. If they have been in your town for years they are probably the best choice. I don't worry about brands it all looks dark on the car lol.
