Window tinting

Subject: Window tinting Mon Mar 17 2008, 21:32

Want the windows tinted on the back of the Daddy Bus. I have never been down this road before. I am told that film is ok. I am also told it is pants and not to put it over a heated rear window.
I did get a quote on getting the glass popped out and replaced with smoked glass. But I cant spent as much on the glass as I did on the bus and as usual Mrs Monty has me on a budget,
ANY IDEAS ?

i done my old golf with a freind, its pretty difficult, but depends on the window, sides are pretty easy cos they're flat, the back is a bit more tricky, just make sure you take the windows out, buy a massive squeegee cos the ones they give you are crap. and buy a little bit lighter than what you think you need, cos it'll look loads darker when all the tinted windows are in the car.
the way i got round my back window last time was to do it in 3 strips, and make sure the joins are on the heated window strips Very Happy

.
i also blew a tiny bit of laquer around the edges aswell, this stops air getting under the film and making it peel.
hope this helps.

Anyone got a ballpark figure for what you'd pay professionally just for the sides/rear tinting ?

Subject: Re: Window tinting Thu Mar 27 2008, 17:13

no probs BigMonty, this is KJ Stylings number: 07960256640, they are located in pboro down second drove. ice direct are on the internet and the huntingdon 1 is in the yellow pages i think, or try yell.com. they all charge bout the same price, just make sure u get life time guarantee.

christian, i payed £220 for the hole lot dun, call one of the above they'll give ya a quote as depends on how big ya car is n if its a 3/5dr
