    I basically learned/taught myself to tint watching your older vids and I agree 100% with everything you're saying. You do the same thing every time and after a few cars it becomes just a process you follow, and you're able to focus on getting the little things right such as tucking the sides or making clean cuts.

      @@dnawrapsatl I started just tinting my own car with cheap film until I got kinda comfortable. Went on to do friends cars etc etc. It's worth it if you can keep the cost of film relative to your pricing in control. I was using EWF Classic Black which is like 40 bucks for a 20"x50' roll and that would do at least 3 cars. I don't do it anymore though, just on my own cars. So I guess it's also worth it since I've saved the cost of taking 4 cars to be tinted 😅

    this is exactly what I done; I bought some cheap Auto Zone tint and practiced the techniques I watched you do on your videos and live streams once and then bought some Pro Classic from Geo Shield, and tinted my doors and back glass on my truck, and went great first time. Oh, yeah, I invested a couple hundred in the right blades and and knives and squeegees etc as well! Makes all the difference using the right tools for the job! Thanks, Matt!

    I'm a bottom loader myself. Learned two staging first and did it for a year then learned to bottom load. I immediately got cleaner results bottom loading then I ever did two-staging.
    Most panels simply pull from the top enough to remove the sweep. Extremely rare that a panel needs to be removed to get the sweep out.

    • @DetroitTintStudio
      @DetroitTintStudio  5 лет назад +2

      This is a little long winded but bear with me. I think the 2 stage was the better choice in the beginning. I wouldn't say it's all that rare when a door needs to be taken apart but even so, there are just cars certain people (including myself) wouldn't want to take apart. In those cases you need to 2 stage and if you spent all the time in the beginning learning only how to tint with the sweeps out, then you are sorta fucked when you can't.
      So even if this was the harder recommendation in your case, I'm glad you know both 😁 You have more than enough experience 2 staging to know what works well for you, also you learned one method before trying something else.

    This is very helpfull man. as I replied just on another one of your videos. It is a bit of a lot information in the beginning like tinters say, remove the whole window, do this, do that... but it is such a mountain to start then.
    I have done 2 professional trainings and now I think I am ready to start really focussing on results. Have had a training with a bunch of fleet tinters that do everything on the car even in very bad enviromental conditions and did a training with a single installer with the phylosopy to remove windows and strips, wash down the whole window and precut everything on a cutting table... both I think have the same endresult, but both also said that there is no other way then their way.
    Gues that this is applyable to every profession. Some window washers will say the cleanest way is with a telescopic washer and the other one says the only way is with oldschool sponge and soap... result is the same. Both have a great way of reaching the same endresult.
    The fleettinters that dont remove a thing say that every removal of any car material has a chance of doing unwanted damage to the vehicle and the other private tint instructor in my second training told that you will scratch the glass if you dont cut on a cutting table but need to remove the glass en demount the whole B-style of the door... Both very logic, but also very not logic.
    What you said. It is a really simple proces that can be made very hard with a kind of bizar philosophies. It is the way of understanding what you are doing and why you are doing it, also what happens if you do it just a bit different in stead of just applying what a lesson or instructor said and dont ever understand why you do what you do and also be in big trouble if the practic situation is a bit different than you learned and you never had the space to did a bit of improvising.
    Thank you for this man!

Keeping in mind the tent should be around the size of 1 car. So not that big?

      jakey9023 I actually got myself a big Tent! It’s a Keymaya Ez Pop Up Canopy Tent 10x20. I also purchased ABCCanopy Instant Canopy Sunwalls, 6 in total. Lastly I got some weights to keep it down incase there is wind. It was around a $400 investment but it paid itself off in 2 cars, super fast. It seems like a hassle but it’s super easy to take it down, by yourself I’d say around 20min to out it up and to take it down.

    Great tips, although, I don't think calling people stupid is a great way to get views on the video. Great tips, though, and, really, if I had no audio at all, you do such a great job of recording the tint job that I would learn without anything being said. What people have to realize is: your good and tinting because of the techniques you use, and those techniques are always very visible. Because of the way you have the GoPro strapped to your head it's like looking through your eyes when your doing the whole process! I haven't attempted to tint my truck yet, but I think I will do well when I do, and I will definitely use some cheap Auto Zone film when I do it. It will actually be my third attempt. Because I tried it a couple of times back in 2015 or 16. I didn't have a clue then, but I think I have a chance at it this time around because of watching some of your videos and old live streams. Thanks for sharing the videos, Matt! oh, yeah, I would definitely go online to Sun Distributing and get some basic tools before attempting it! You're only going to do as good as the tools you have to work with; that may not be completely true for someone who's been doing it for years, but a beginner like me needs every advantage he can get. I'm glad I found your channel, Matt! Thanks again!

      @DetroitTintStudio  5 лет назад +2

      It's not that it can't work but it definitely makes things more challenging. I worked with a guy that had a full portable tent setup and even used it in winter time.
      The most difficult part is the logistical nonsense that comes along with running around. setup, tear down, talk to customers, find a workspace and then worry about the weather being too windy so the tent doesn't blow away or you add weights. also they are usually one off jobs so after you do one you have to pack up and go somewhere else and do it all over.
      Mobile for me is working with an existing auto or glass company that wants to add window tinting as an extra service. they give you space and line up jobs ahead of time and you come in, knock everything out, collect a check and then have another place lined up for another day. course they take a cut for managing those things but the extra work they are supposed to line up more than takes care of their cut in comparison.
      there are pros and cons to both, would make a good topic for a video. hope this helps some.

      right after a tint job, you will have small water pockets as the film dries out. but if it's had a chance to dry and you have white specs/air bubbles, those won't go away and usually needs to be redone. there might be a few specs here or there but if you have bunches of them, I'd get it redone.

I know how you feel man I’ve been trying to get jnto car wrapping and tinting and it’s hard but at the end of the day none of these people got it down from one day to another or from one month to another it comes from years of practice you just have to keep your head up and keep it grinding cause in the end it’ll work out fine 💪

    I put on my first tint film on a door window(Amazon Filmgoo for home). It worked out great, but I discovered many flaws in my technique. I then went out to buy some cheap tint from a local automotive store, liquidating their inventory. It turns out, it's the "Private Eyes" brand, sold by Alpena. Mediocre film that's meant for DIYers. It sells for $40 bucks a package, I got it for $9 bucks. (the store still has hundreds of rolls). As a practice film, it meets all the specs for a semi quality tint job. I'm gonna use it on a 12 year old truck. If all goes well, I'll use a 2nd one on a friend's car. He's already said he wants me to do it. So, no sales pitch required there. At worst, I'll get some free beers and maybe and order of chicken wings out of the deal.
    The ultimate goal, is to use the nano ceramic on my new WRX. By then I'll have acquired some somewhat semi skills, which minimizes wasted resources.

      Truthfully I’ve been tinting for almost 3 years and I prefer a sharpie for framed windows on the edges. I can use a knife but I like to limit hand cutting on the car by tracing the molding on the sides with a sharpie. That way I can avoid having to cut on the glass along the rubber and shift the film. I just cut slightly past the sharpie outline with a straight line. For me it’s easier. However, to make an entire pattern out by tracing I disagree with.

      He hasn't done update but I'm using it. Great carbon film. Little low angle haze at times but good film so far.

      Steve Matheny have you had any issues with the adhesive being weak, around the dot matrix, and not wanting to lay even after being shrunk?

    • @stevematheny5511
      @stevematheny5511 5 лет назад

      Well it is low tac to me. I'm new tinter myself. Only compared to the 1 mil film I have used for past year learning on. This is 1.5 mil film better quality so I just thought that maybe it was supposed to be like that.

    I feel bad for bottom loaders. It takes ZERO skill to bottom load windows lmao. Before anyone comments that i dont know how to take panels off, i worked in an audio shop that added window tint because of me. I have taken panels off almost every car. I stick by what i say... BOTTOM LOADING TAKES ZERO SKILL AND IS A HUGE RISK.
