Here at Sun Distributing, we believe that the supplier of the window film should know every aspect of the business. It makes it hard when a tinter or tint shop needs support but their supplier does not know the business from one end to the other. I started as a tinter helper in 1989 and worked my way up to the point of distribution. Along the way I have put together a successful retail tint shop and know every hurdle that a tinter and/or shop owner could face. I believe that there is an extreme value to having a company with our experience in the industry having your back.

😱 "You didn't give it time to dry!"
I ended up leaving it on for the week, the haze never got ANY better. I've tested dozens of films including other Black Magic tint from Walmart and thoes videos are on this channel. never had a haze problem in thoes. I am very familiar with ceramic haze and just didn't want to wait a week to post the video. If you think I'm just product bashing and don't believe me. no worries, it's only $20 to check urself. I would suggest their cheaper option instead, even cheap dyed films won't have this haze. I will be more sensitive to Walmart film testing in the future 😂
Surprised you left it on for an additional 3 minutes after the video by your reaction of it.
Pin it
I don't understand; so you ended up leaving it on for a week but didn't want to wait a week to post the video? You know you can post 2 separate video right? First the unboxing with installation, then a follow-up review with removal and throwing out the trash! Just an idea for future videos.
It's not the Walmart tint. It's the method of reeee you've posted on the video and say you've removed the tint the same day after installing it then you update your comment saying oh yeah I left it on week and yet no update video segment on it. It's quite obvious you're fishing for comments
Pics or it didn't happen
I’ve been wondering what happened to Dwight from The Office. Glad to see him doing something productive.
🤣🤣🤣
🤦🏽♂️😂
Dwight Jr???😂😂😂
Every Justin is a prick, prove me wrong.

The price had me ready to buy, I was about to leave when I saw the heat reduction...good thing I stayed until the end and saw the haze. I used to be a detailer and even the slightest spot on a window is a problem. Imagine if I can't clean it 🤬
If you read the comments, it goes away....
@@farmeunit good to know, I'll check it out next Walmart trip. Thanks
You need to leave it in the sun and don’t mess with it for a couple days and it’ll naturally clear up
Edit: I see someone else said it and I’m guessing you’ve tried it out? If so how well does it work after letting it sit and cure?
@@brandonlueth3400 I didn't try it yet, mostly the weather hasn't been that good.
@@davypig571 did you end up getting it? What's the results?
Finally, an unedited video of something that was messed up in the end, I knew someone could finally keep it real
Really good review of the product. Back in my day, SunGard was the most optically clear tint available and all I ever used. I would just tell anybody if you’re thinking about tinting your windows clean them scrape them clean them scrape them rinse and repeat about 10 times and when you think your windows are clean, rinse and repeat about five more times. Beyond that, have a professional do it. Have a great day man.
Sounds more tedious than complicated.

@@DoremiFasolatido1979 That's becasue it is. If you have an area with positive pressure and can place the window in it. You only have to clean it once or twice to get the lint off of it. Most of the failed home tints I have seen are becasue people don't clean the tint before they apply though.
Used to tint residential homes and commercial businesses. We only used sungard 😂
Yea nahh fk that let his ass wash n scrape 15 times
Really well done my dude! You are saving everyone time and money. This was the epitome of you get what you pay for. Thanks again for your time.
thank you for an honest appraisal. i wish more product reviews were as blunt.
I used this same exact tint for my car and after a couple of days the haze completely cleared and the windows look awesome.
I was going to say the same thing.. haze is normal but does go away when the tint dries
if it's not ceramic lol
@@DetroitTintStudio Or maybe they just got better results, either they subjected them to different environments (UV, temperature, etc) or you got a bad batch.
Same here I got the Walmart tint put it on my truck windows it was hazy at first and cleared up in a few days!
I had my car professionally tinted with ceramic tint and wasn’t any hazing on any window.
That being said I was warned by the tinting guy that sometimes because they use alot of spray to install the tint that it can cause it to look a bit funky, like milky or rainbowy or diffused and that it will dry out and it will look better, usually. If not to return and get all the tint replaced. Really wasn’t an issue with my tint install, was a few “bubbles” of fluid that quickly dried out and were a non issue but really the tint is super clear.
I love all of the DIY guys trying to argue with a literal professional. Absolutely mint content.
Pretty sure theres also a bunch professionals with decades of experience trying argue about his results too...
Pretty sure he didnt read the directions.
@@420frankp My wife doesn't read directions either...her tint jobs are hazy as hell too. ...just kidding honey.
We used it on some windows on our home. Looked bad the first day. 2nd day, look great. I have zero experience with any other tint to compare to, but for my use, glad to have dropped $20 to beat back the Texas sun from out mud room!
How’s it look after a month
For a car, I don’t think I’d use this but I hadn’t thought about putting it on home glass!
@@tinman9341 home glass is useful in hot areas like texas, Arizona, California ect. Especially with the tint
@@mtmcommunity true that! I tried the static crap but it didn’t work. I’m gonna try this next! 👍🏼
Hi what how dark did you go for your home window and did it make your room real dark as well ? Couse I’m wanting to do the same thing to my bed room and block out all the sun through my window I would like it to be pitch dark where it looks like it’s still night time but it’s daytime of course
I've always loved black magic cleaning products they have a cherry smell, they aren't specifically a Walmart brand as far as I remember. I didn't know they made tint, but I can't recall wanting to ever do it myself so I could have just absolutely passed it by.
It literally says on the package or in the directions on the Walmart tint that it needs a day or 2 in the sun to let all the moisture dry up, its always hazy the first day compared to the following
Source: ive tinted over 12 vehicles and even an entire RV all using walmart tint and it always gets less foggy after really good sun
Agree, read the directions which he obviously didn't. I never did a car but have used film on house windows and yes there is a "burn-in" time for almost all these types of products. Had to give the video a thumbs down because his "expert advice" wasn't very expert if he's not going to follow the directions.
@@bob19611000 just so you know a thumbs down or up helps the video get suggested to more viewers.....youtube rewards all interaction...good or bad...dosent matter
@@mastercraftsman4213 thanks, didn't know that
I was just about to ask about the drying process. Will it clear up after it dries in the sun?
@@87teggy yeah thats what we are saying. It gets better a day or two or three after being in the sun depending where you live. The normal walmart tint (not ceramic) is Plenty good considering it costs basically 5$ per window. The most important thing is getting the window Clean, like scrape it with a razor blade Then wash it then use a microfiber and make sure its perfect. Then you have to use as MUCH soapy water as possible, i use dishsoap and water in an old spray bottle. You can separate the tint from the backing using tape on the corner and you peel it back and fold the tape so you have an easy grab to peel it off and you'll know which way the tint should face. It goes on the inside and I cut it large and install it and get bubbles out Then I go back was a razor and trim perfect. The trick is rolling the window down to do the top, then you roll it up and do the bottom and its IMPORTANT you don't roll your windows down for a day or 2 until its dried. Thats it.
Stumbled across this video entirely by randomness. Not a huge tint fan but I really dig your rig you built with the BTU meter and stuff. Brilliant idea.
Bro your reaction when you backed out and saw the final product was hilarious 😂 .
I think the proper term it “bro-it” I see them at Walmart 😂
It literally says on the package it takes 24 hours for the hazy to go away because you need to let it bake in the sun and let all moisture dry. It doesn't look hazy the next day if you have good sun
@@Partnerthedog So he didn't follow directions, then condemns the product. RUclips videos are a joke. I wonder if he'll bother to respond, or if saying something is crap is just too good as clickbait?
@@69fcortina he did respond in a pinned comment. He left it in for a week and the haze never went away. He isn't just a RUclipsr, he's also a professional tinter.
@@SergeantSniffles funny the dude above you says all this about you tubers when it's the commenter who don't know shit. Fucking annoying af. Good for you tho calling him out.
Thanks for the awareness! Didn’t know this was a thing. Never tinted before but I want to
Thanks for the heads up. I'm still going to install this on my VW ginormous sunroof with that kind of heat blocking...I'm in Florida
The haze probably won't represent much safety concern overhead...
@@garyblack8717 Plus it has the retractable sunshade. I've even considered painting the sunroof glass, the heat is brutal.
Give it 6 months and you'll have bubbles. Maybe not an issue to you
I think it's the soap solution that comes with the tint. Especially after leaving it on for a few days to dry.
It definitely could be but I suspect it was the product. It would be interesting to see if using a quality product to adhere it to the window makes a difference. I suspect nothing will change though due to how much heat it blocked out. The haze is likely why it blocks so much heat.
I've used black magic tint, I think the ugly haze was the adhesive not cured. I think you should put it on a test glass and see if it goes away with exposure
Or cheap adhesive
In his personal comments under the video, he states he decided to leave it on for a week and it never cleared up any.
@@TheDiamonddust1: In the video he also showed that he didnt read the mixing instructions and extra soap will leave extra haze.
Did not expect a twist in the climax. Thanks for the informative video
You should put your best tint, Walmart tent and the worst tint you have used on 3 different windows cover part to act as the window seal, leave them out in the sun for a few months and show the difference in good and bad tint
Sounds like a summer report picture, not an interesting commentary video
Only need two windows pal. This is the worst and the Walmart
Dude!! I used it (walmart kind, not sure about ceramic) in my 87' f150. I thought the ac was low or bad but it needed tint. Turned out to be the world of difference, ac will freeze ya out. I've had my cars tinted but I wasn't gonna pay for the ole work truck so I did it cheap myself. It works better than what I did pay for from others. This has been 11yrs ago I sold the truck to my buddy who still has it and the tint is still good 🤷🏾♂️ not miscolored or wavy. Crazy the older stuff didn't haze
His reaction had me dying 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"no, NOOOOOOOO."
Yea his reaction was PRICELESS...Noooooooooooo. Black magic should be ashamed
im so glad to have watched this video. especially being in az where it gets REALLY hot, this film would have been awsome had not been for the haziness. thank you!!!
Thanks for the heads up. I was about to try this stuff. Saved me a ton of work and anger.
My local tint companies couldn't explain the difference between the quality/price of Tint. Thanks for that! Since obviously quality is a concern of yours, what product do you recommend (that can be installed by a professional) for S. Arizona / S. California climate that is crystal clear (nano wise) and great at heat/UV rejection?
You don’t need a “professional tool kit” to tint your windows. Soapy water and a credit card and you are good to go. And a blade to cut the film. ;)
Wat kind of soap
@@caliviews9884 I just use regular dish soap. been working out fine so far.
That's methed up
@@djstickmanechelon ah yes! Substance abuse jokes! Hilarious! You and this guy have excellent humor.
@@nikelpikleger9754 we make a lot of jokes about prescription drug addiction and substance abuse. It's pretty funny, just pointing it out!
I'm glad I found this video. I was just looking at this stuff this week and almost wasted my money. 😬👍
Good review man. At first I thought the title was click bait, but I saw the video and this tint really should be illegal. I love the reaction as you backed up into the sun. 😂😂😂
wow! Dude, just want to say i've been loving your videos! Thanks for showing us this!
about ten years ago wallmart had this gradient film. It was a reflective film that went from silver to whatever colour about halfway. They were great. Kept my car real cool but had lots of problems with cops during the day. Completely clear at night from the outside. I still have them on my old Suzuki Vitara 1998.
I think they outlawed them after a while i heard but i loved them.
You remember the brand and product name of those? That sounds like a genius invention!
That actually sounds like a great idea.
@@klote82 id bet Ebay would have something like that.
@@klote82 photochromatic I think?
Wow. I just so happen to stumble across this video. I was looking to get some of this tint in a few days. Appreciate the video.✌🏾
Just stumbled across the channel you definitely seem like you put a lot of effort into being helpful and putting out really good vids
That is really awesome that you showed this, because there are products that are just terrible. I purchased some film that faded within a year, waste of time and money. Great video!
Or turned purple
You can learn a lot from bad info, for example. He didn't know how much soap in that packet to use. That right there compromised the whole thing! Use less soap and more water (Distilled)
my thought exactly distilled water and clear baby shampoo
@@johndoe-tv5sr really
@@onlythewise1 Yes baby shampoo it don't leave the residue other soaps leave.
@@-Atrocious oh ok thanks
@@johndoe-tv5sr that wasn't the test. The test was to use the tools supplies with their kit. More soap won't hurt anything.
I am very impressed with what I've learned from your video thanks very much👍I don't know your professional position on tinting but you seem to have 10 out of 10 experience 😁
Thank you so very much for saving me the time and effort. I just bought this film from wm thinking it would be better since it was more expensive. Gonna return this asap.
Pay for a real shop....the time savings on crap is so worth it....
I have a "window cling" version on the top of my windshield on my semi as a sunscreen cost about $20 goes on easy with water & can be reused. No haze no bubbles. Total with measuring & cutting not knowing what we were doing it took my wife & I about an hour now we can put it up in like 10 mins or less.
Idk if it was the same company but we've been using the same tint (literally the same piece) for years
Hello. Mind sharing the name of the product? Have been looking for a window cling window tint
@@arielrivera4051 I believe it's "Black Magic Insta-cling" then they have different levels of how dark it is
I'm Hella broke. My tools are an old windex bottle with soapy water, an old driver's license, and some razors I find in the garage 🤣
soapy wooder
Sounds like hair dryer and you’re good to go
Yeah me too and I never leave a bubble
I’m not broke but still go with a screwdriver and Cosco membership card and soapy water
Use Johnson's baby shampoo ( without conditioner ! ).
It can even be the cheap store-bought look-a-like brand name baby shampoo.
Use half teaspoon, for Windex bottle, shake well.( Only put enough shampoo to allow tint to barely move, when first placed on glass , doesn't immediately stick).
Baby shampoo is the only thing you want to clean window tint with. Use 100% cotton t-shirt, some paper towels will scratch tint.
Any car with factory E Coating, Glazing, will scratch very easily, when cleaning with razor blade, or scrub pad. (Ford vehicles 80&90 )
Windex removes tint.
If window tint is purple and full of bubbles that means it has been cleaned with Windex.
The ammonia in Windex removes the adhesive on tint.
Thanks for this review! I've been thinking of tinting my windows, myself & now I know of one to avoid.
Thanks for the class! I learned a lot!
The haze is from the “nano “ ceramic material because its a cheap version. But on a regular 20% tint BM will be clear. Its the ceramic cheap material . So its not because its not dried completely or cured.
that's how you haze someone with walmart tint
And after 6 months, you're riding with bubbles....especially in S Florida
I’ve been a tinter for 15 years now an I understand the how an experienced tinter would definitely not like black magic, but remember the first time you learned to tint and how great it felt. Leave room for the new guys to find their way, Ijs that’s how I came into myself. Of course it’s the best tint nor can you cover a back window with it unless you overlap or cut on the defrost (game for rookies lol) but everyone has access to you it. Hope my comment helps. 👍🏾
They have great brands at automotive stores that don't do this though!
Anyone can access any type of tint. Plus you're not saving money over spending the $250 to have it professionally done. He's trying to help people. Doing your own tint never works out for anybody. After you buy tint, tools, and spend 3 days doing it, it still turns out like trash, and you end up needing to redo it or have someone else do it.
@@littlejackalo5326 Why try anything if the first attempt is a failure then eh? Never try anything. Never develop any skills. Be a skill-less loser forever. Rely on everyone else for everything. Surely the best way...
@@littlejackalo5326 Never? Really? You can say that for yourself perhaps, but to apply that line of thinking to everyone is a bit asinine don't you think?
I'm glade I watched the entire video....I was all set to buy that and put it on this weekend...lol but I will check out more of your videos..
I had gotten this to put on the front windows of the wife's car bc it was the only 20% tint Walmart had and didn't want to put the only other option 2.5 on instead. Glad I watched this though before installing it and wasting the time! lol Thanks!!!
Been pretty pleased with my 3M color stable tint. Not the best, but not bad at all. Reduces heat during summer time.
I use that on all my vehicles, and you have to let it sit and cure. Sometimes it takes a few days
Have you seen it take longer than a week? Please see updated, pinned, comment.
@@james0000 Depends on the temperature and whether it's in direct sunlight
@@1gearwrench Well, they left it on for 1 week of hot weather, according to thier posts. I have no first hand knowledge of this tint as it's been quite a while since I applied tint.
@Bob Watters he also didn't follow any directions on how much solution to use
Thank god I seen this video before I went out and tried this tint . I was considering tinting my work car back windows my self. I will leave to a professional. Thnx great job 👍
My thoughts. Read the directions. I dont care how are knowledgeable you think you are there is always room to learn something new. There is no way that tint is that bad.
Yes... you can use too much soap. As a self proclaimed pro you should know that. But hey... after 30 years, what do I know. I've used this exact product and I never seen haze that bad on any install.
Yeah, you tell him Mr 30 years🙄
He literally used the recommended tint install kit from the manufacturer, wtf you talking about
I believe you're a tint installer, because you look like one. But you don't know what you're talking about, or you're talking it to literally. Obviously you can have too much soap. If you add a cup of soap to 12 oz of water, it won't work very well. But adding 0.5 teaspoons to a tablespoon (6x as much) isn't going to make a difference. Squeeze in a teaspoon of soap and you'll be fine
Yes, it's that bad. How long until bubbles? I see so many cars looking like crap.....this is it....this is why it looks the way it does. The real stuff doesn't bubble....
Did you take the color change film off? How did your like it? Did it not last?
Yeah, I bet it is pretty bad at night also. What a shame. I t sure does cut the heat though. Thank you for doing this video and saving people some heart ache and money. You Rock my friend.🤘
He also fucked up by instantly looking at it. The instructions even state it needs at least 24 hours for the bonding agent to cure and the haze will go away.
It blocks that much heat because of the haziness lol
@@SilvaDreams they also probably specify the amount of solution to use
That's crazy. I work at Toyota and we outsource for tinting, and... it could have been management from years ago, but that's the exact type of tint I see now and then, that's completely dangerous. If you can't "SEE" how it's dangerous, I am very afraid to have you on the road. That film can make it so deceiving, nevermind the depth perception shit from your mirrors and the new fancy rearview mirrors.. Great video, and if you ever get a tint looking like that, take it back.
Thank you for this RUclips. I was considering buying this product but not now. Cheers!
New to the channel
First impressions I love the fact that you unwrapped something new and it turned out crappy, and you still posted it. Talk about realism, don’t see that very often, everything looks great and ends great, as much as that is nice to watch, most of us, that ain’t how it happens most of the time. So thank you for that. On the flip side after reading a bunch of comments there might be some merit to waiting a few days to let the product settle out. Curious if you did that and what that outcome ended up being. Thank again, I have subscribed
Gila from auto parts is the best box store bought tint I've experienced. Have a silverado (tint on for 7 years) and 2 toyotas (3/4 years) and the silverado is just starting to fade. And I live in florida, and spent about 3 of those 7 years parked in an asphalt parking lot with no shade. Bought walmart tint one time, and one time only. It got applied, and un-applied....immediately.
So far I love it. (Gila) Only been on a month or so, but it's great. I got two boxes at first for my truck to get the front windows redone, and I used both boxes on one lol. I watched one youtube video and said "I got this" I did not 😂
in the 90s the is a 3M tint in the philippines we call majic tint.....it is clear like no tint at night, and super dark when sunny
Thanks! You just saved me time and money!
Try the black Magic select 5% tint all around on my car including back window front window and double five sun strip I wanna see your opinion on it so I can figure out if I should upgrade film for customers cars
Personally that’s what I have and any friends that want tint I install that I like it
Thanks for all the love on this video 💚 I have like 5 more ceramic ideas thanks to your comments
Hey I have 3m 40% ceramic tints on my car windows but I want a lower percentage is it worth taking removing for darker tint
@@carolinapantherfan4330 my old car I had 20% tint but it metered 24% when installed on my windows. A year later after not being happy I had a 2nd layer of tint put on all around which saved money from having to strip it all. I had 30% put on top of existing tint and it metered 10%. The guy that did it did a really good job because not all tinters can add a 2nd layer without screwing it up. Got rear ended 1 year ago and it totalled the car though.
Thank you for the videos, I’m sure you have mentioned this, but what are the two top film manufacturers and models do you prefer to tint with? Just getting into the business
Thank u! Great video, lots of help. Think I'll get a friggin pro...
😂😂😂 I wouldn’t even put that on my work truck that stays at the job site
You should have given time for the tint to bond to the glass properly most likely the haze you got is from the soapy water chemicals used in the tinting solution. Like a solid day or 2 in the sun to get all the "solution" out from in between the tint and glass
Please see updated comment, left it on for a week.
@@james0000 yeah he posts the video reees for 5 minutes, says he going to remove it the same day, then suddenly decided to keep it for a week and not make an update video I understand.
@@jcrazyblue4u I know what you mean, but if we aren't going to trust that he had it on for a week then we can't trust that the tint itself wasn't sabotaged or much of anything.
He installs a lot of tint, not sure why he didn't point out in the initial video that it should clear up after several days if it was going to or anything like that. I would expect him to know that and to discuss it to some degree.
@@james0000 I agree with your comment, it's just the video is lacking those points and it just seems he's just belittling / making fun of people who comment on his video when he himself did not include these parts on his video so people form conclusions on the video he has made. I don't see this guy growing much with this type of attitude and just because he's lazy to do follow ups or more complete videos and then just say hey why are you guys thinking that I'm bashing this tint and leaving the video as it is, its just bad content
He also admitted to not bothering to read the mixing directions for the solution. Who knows how much he missed the proper mixing ratio.
"I'm a pro" *throws directions in the trash then complains about product performance*
7:57 That was ... CONCLUSIVE as hell 🤣
Thanks for the video, Corey Feldman!!!
Everytime I've had my windows tinted by professionals at different tint shops it's always hazy the first day, and they all have said that I shouldn't mess with the windows and it will take a couple of days in the sun for the tint to clear up.
I've had a car professionally tinted with Llumar and it was never hazy. I just tinted four windows in my car with motoshield and it was clear as well. As clear as 15% tint ever is anyways. Maybe they were using lower quality tints on yours?
Mine was clear when I left the shop but I was told not to open any windows for a few days. They put tape on my window buttons as a reminder
NOT SURE...this is the same thing we would tell our customers about the haze or streaking or clouds in the tint...give it a few days in the sun and it will clear up and it always did. In over 30 years of tinting we never did really figure out why the tint would do that because it did not always do that and we always used the same brand of tint Solar Gard now owned by Saint-Gobain North America. We are in Kentucky and it seemed the higher the humidity that day the better the chance the tint jobs that day would haze up. I see other post on here saying I used this brand or that brand and it was never hazy... I say ''SO ?'' what difference does it make if it goes away and never comes back...none . Now this guy says that he went ahead and left it on for a few days ? and the haze never went away then that would be a problem. Did he cause the problem by using so much of the solution that came in that little packet? I don't know. For a while, we were told to only use Dove dishwashing soap in our water bottles to help in moving the tint around on the glass but then it got to where the tint companys only recommend Baby Shampoo. If I was using a high output hand pump spray bottle I would use a cap full of baby shampoo in it and never had problems. We also sold tint over the counter, by the foot, for our customers that wanted to do it themselves. If any of you out there have been tinting windows for a long time...this will give you a hint about how long I have been tinting windows...when I first started tinting automotive windows the only color they offered/made was the silver mirror finish, it came with NO BACKING to peel off and no hard coat to keep it from scratching as easy and the glue that held the tint on the window came in a little plastic bottle and you had to mix it with water and spray the glue on by hand ! I also think that dinosaurs still walked the earth lol. Detroit Tint guy is at least trying to help those new to tinting a little help in this video and should be cut some slack but also taken with a pinch of salt. And watch out for the pros on here that still thinks he tinted both sides of the glass. BOZ
@@Hedonistic0Frog they likely cured the tint inhouse.
I used this material but used Dawn soap and water . They came out better then expected but it was my first try so my cuts where really bad. After watching a pre-recorded live stream I realize your tips to be very helpful. Will be redoing the windows. Should I make a video about it ? Haha
Old post I know, but how much soap did you use in the water?
Great video and thanks for the heads up.
Our dude is feeling good while making this video that's for sure! - But good video.
For your heat test you left the plastic liner on the tint wouldn't that affect the results of the test?
I was thinking the same thing initially, but the likely answer comes from the glass. The film limer was a fraction the thickness of the auto glass, so the numbers can be presumed to be offset.
Is there a quality affordable ceramic tint for blocking heat for diy? Something with more like 35% VLT?
Call solar fx or buy from lexen. Only two companys that do not require a busniess lic.
What do you think about tinting house windows and glass sliders? Besides privacy does it offer any heating and cooling advantages?
Great Video and Helpful Information! Thanks!! 🤗
Constructive criticism about your heat transmission measurements. The air space gap may have resulted in such a good number for the tested tint.
Easy confirmation, take his usual film he has on the other side, and drop it like the ones you're testing. Compare how close the numbers are.
@@ryanpaaz agree. But he didn't do that!
Was also thinking that, and would the plastic on the black magic film be a factor? Either way not a very accurate measurement.
Air and heat don't react... heat is the same with air or without human you've lived how many summers?
I do window tinting for a living, never used a heat gun but most importantly, why are you tinting the outside and inside? As mentioned before, that's why your tint is supposedly like crap. Ask any pro, you only tint the inside.. period
I tinted windows for 6 years. You did a good job, a professional would remove the door panel. I like the heat shrink trick.
You don’t have to remove a door panel, or gaskets (sweeps) to tint. You can use the 2 stage method that was demonstrated in the video.
@@armandozapata3386 sure you can do that and get water spots on the door panel. Having it off you get a cleaner and tighter fit with the tint. Sure, skip the steps and do 80% of a good job or do it right. Up to you.
@@isaacodegard740 you aren’t supposed to drown window, a mist with the right slip solution will do, and regarding the fitment, if you made your pattern correctly it’s gonna fit perfectly. Two different styles of tinting, end result is the same.
@@armandozapata3386 imagine your working on a 100k car and the owner walks around and sees you with the door panel propped out and covered in bubbles and solution. No matter what the shit gets everywhere. Like I said, a professional* would remove the door panel to do a proper job. Otherwise your just a hack in a garage.
@@isaacodegard740 I’ve tinted vehicles over 100k didn’t have to pull a panel to tint them. Nothing was damaged. You mist the glass, you don’t go and drown the panel in solution. Two different methods, in the end it’s the same result. Some guys remove sweeps, panels, some just two stage.
There is no right or wrong way and having a preference doesn’t make you a hack, that’s your opinion.
Great video and great information. Thanks
Thanks for that information!!
Great video ++
How do you tint a window and the end result is brighter? 😄
Camera optics and interior light level prioritization.
It takes 2 seconds to pop the top of the door panel off and get out the felt anti scratch/seal off. Really makes it super easy to get the rest of the small fingers at the bottom and makes your job look 10x more professional imo
Repent to Jesus Christ
“Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes.”
Ephesians 6:11 NIV

Nah, it takes much longer than that. The top of the door panel won't come off without sliding the whole panel up. So you need to take the whole door panel off. If you can't tint it perfectly without taking the door panel off and risking breaking clips, you shouldn't be tinting. People don't want you taking their car apart. Cars are never the same after interior panels are taken off.
This isn't allowed at pro tint competitions
Good video, thanks for the heads up
I love this product I use it on my windows in my house... And it cools my house down about 70% during the summer... It also helps with people's not being able to look in your windows.... And also block sun glare off of your TV I love it
The heat reduction test wasn't accurate due to the air gap. If you actually stuck the film to the no tint glass you would probably get different results
Exactly. Physics.
No he wouldn't because its not measuring temperature, it's measuring the heat output (basically the light energy from the lamp). As long as the tint is in front of the lamp, it shouldn't make much of a difference.
Yeah, air gaps are specific to lessening conductive/convective heat. That test specifically measures infrared radiation, and air gaps have no effect on radiation heat.
Whats your thoughts on 3m crystaline 20%? Its suppose to major heat reduction
This stuff is amazing - have it on wife's car and mine. Hers is super high VLT, like 50% or something, and it's still VERY noticeable difference when sitting your arm on the door panel in the sun.
3M Crystaline is mind blowing. A friend in Henderson, NV (Vegas area) has it on his Prius, including the windshield. Last time I visited it was mid August and felt like the sun was 2" from my face. You can not feel the sun at all through the glass in that car!
I paid extra to get 40% Crystalline on my car as it was the closest to the 35% legal limit. I only had the car for 4 days after tinting before I was rear ended but from those 4 days the heat coming in was basically non-existent from any window minus the windshield which isn’t tinted.
Definitely recommended. My rental car has no tints and I definitely feel the heat, lol.
Damn whoever talked you into buying those glasses that don't even fit the bridge of your nose deserves a raise! Lol great video need to tint my mustang
Good review thanks
That's crazy. I've used that exact tint on 3 old vehicles and have never had that type of haziness. Not even close. I'm not sure what went wrong here, but that cheap tint is not as bad as what this video makes it seem. It's definitely not pro grade, but if you don't want to invest much on an old junker, you most likely will not have that milky color using this tint. Something went wrong here
Agreed, I think he added too much of that solution at the beginning to his spray bottle.
He probably failed to get the previous tints adhesive completely off.
I used Black Magic tint from Walmart on several cars and after a few years the film literally turned a grayish white. Lesson learned - DO NOT use tint from WalMart.
What did u expected I change it every year and it’s good
i’m using the i stacking from walmart
Don't use any car related thing from Walmart, only the oil and fluid
Mine turned purple
@@aztk5713 you change your tint every year? Derrrrrp. You're one of those guys that thinks you're saving money by buying the bottom of the barrel garbage, and don't consider the costs of replacing it every year. Or does the tint wear out from you licking the windows?
I put Black Magic tint on my truck back in 2013 or 2014. I had no hopes that it would hold up, but that stuff is still on there almost ten years later and the only issues I had with it are from my own inexperience. Would I ever DIY tint againt? Nope, I'll take my other trucks to a professional. I've always wanted to take my truck in to have the Black Magic taken off and professionally redone, but the Black Magic stuff really hasn't bothered me enough to make the appointment.
Perfect solution for my side windows in the rear of my van. The quote from the pro window tint folks was $800.00!
I been waiting for u to drop one of this video but I put it on my windshield I got the standard 20% of Walmart on my windshield and looks amazing been there for a while haven’t tooken off
I ain’t use the black magic kit for it use my own kit lol
My standard looks better then that ceramic
Yea that's cool u mention this. so a cheap dyed film will look perfectly clear so its better to get that film that pay the extra for ceramic.
I’m not huge on the black magic . I’ve been using the gila for a while to try and practice and do good on that so I can work my self up and work in a tint shop. The black magic was a lot flimsier than the gila . Gila is a lot easier to work with . But black magic is a lot better of a film when it comes to color
I have glass t-tops and this stuff looks like it would be perfect for bringing down the scorching summer sun temperatures. Clouding doesn't matter because I'm not looking up through the glass roof at anything important - especially not in bright sunshine!
Would a different slip solution work? Water/ISO/baby shampoo? The ISO would help evaporate any moisture.
I thought Corey Feldman was tinting windows between gigs😅😅😆😆😆😆 nice video tho
He sounds like Donatello in a ninja turtle movie / (actor Corey Feldman)
😭🤣🤣 soo true😂😂🤝
I think i'll stick with taking it to a tint shop lol. Worth the extra money. I guess you've done tinting many times so you know a tint job does take a few days to settle. However, you buy it from walmart lol, what do you expect
He’s doing a product test of consumer products. You’re right he’s done tinting many times.
In fact probably multiple 1,000’s of times as he’s been in the industry for many years and has had a RUclips window tinting channel for over a decade now.
But understandable you’re just shooting from the hip like everyone else in this comment thread who clearly doesn’t know what or who they are talking about.
🤦♂️
@@burner__account did you even read what i said lol
Good review! Lesson learned.
😂😅dude you have taught me so much in your videos. Thanks
I did my house windows with a privacy/mirror tint from lowes. It was 40 dollars for a 24X48 roll. Looks great from the inside and outside with no haze at all from what I can see.
Great job! I did the same with the mirror tint, but used the tinted security glass in order to help prevent a break in. It doesn't go into the framing which would provide the best coverage. It does do a great job as we get sun from our windows on the west and east side.
2:25 With what little I truly remember from my thermodynamics class and more from just real-world experience, I'm wondering if there's a significant amount of heat reduction due to the barrier of air (an inch or so?) between the glass and where you held up the tint. Maybe not. I'm not sure.
Its measuring the infrared.
Yes that was bugging me too. Air gap = massive heat reduction
@@BraxEvans No that shouldn't affect it cause he isn't measuring the actual temperature which would be affected by the air gap. He is basically measuring the light energy which should be basically unaffected by the air gap.
Did you let it the adhesive cure? I am no advocate for cheap film but in hind site it's more then likely the cheaper adhesive thats causing the cloud cover. I am kinda curious to test it myself.
Thanks for the video 👍
