Window Tinting
Well you can but pre cut is 10x better you dont have all the extra tint getting in your way and messing you up and plus its hard to get a straight cut that wont peal later on down the road. When I did mine I didnt take mine right flush with the top of the window I left it a little bit down and couple days later I took clear fingernail polish and took it around the edge of the window to make sure that after putting the window up and down a couple of times it wouldnt peal at all and it worked still doing great.
I recommend not using a credit card they seem not to glide as smooth as a actually small squeegee like they only need to be about 1/4'' thick about 3 inch long made or rubber then with the edge cut at a 45 angle. Make sure you clean your windows really good before you start and make sure there is no little hairs or fibers from the towel left over. Then make sure you dont skimp on the water/soap solution and also remember to spray the window and the tint when its good and covered lay the tint on then you have about a min or 2 to get it where you want it. Its best to have some one to help you you can do it by yourself but its always much easier when a friend can help you out. Take the squeegee and work your way out from the middle working in all directions evenly and going over the same spot more than once remember not to work to far ahead of yourself just take your time and work on all the air bubbles
My bother does it for a living,..
One trick is to always clean your windows
the best you can then, with them dry, take a NEW
straight edge razor and lightly scrape the entire window
as if you were shaving it. Then wash it again with a lint free cloth.
This is your 1st step before ever attempting to apply the tint...
It works. Get a bubble you just can't get out while applying the tint?
You shouldn't but, if you do, use a pin to pop it and continue. Good-luck.

tint Is easy... after the first 2 rolls i wasted. This is how i figured out How to do it yourself 10 minutes a window.
Before you do anything, WASH YOUR WINDOWS!! (then spray your window your going to tint with soapy water)
Step 1 : buy some bristol board And make a template of your window.
Step 2 : Cut out the tint for both sides
Step 3 : Take a spray bottle with soapy water and peel the plastic off the tint, . Get A buddy to Spray the sticky part of the tint with the soapy water as you peel it, ALL of it. <--I can't stress this enough, if you dont the tint will stick to eachother and it's ruined. spray as you peal
Step 4 : Apply it to the window and push the bubbles out with a bank card or antyhing
Step 5 : get an olphan blade and cut away any access tint and peal it off.
Step 6 : Let the sun dry up the water and it will be stuck on, Easy!
Done.
