One of the most popular ways to modify a car is to tint its windows. As a rule, the film is applied in order to hide the interior of the car from prying eyes and to improve the appearance of the car.
Instructions
Step 1
When choosing a tint film, you need to pay attention to several points.
Be careful when choosing a color and even a shade of the film, because the wrong choice can worsen the appearance of the car.
Step 2
Choose films with medium light transmittance. Too dark films can interfere in the dark, as well as cause problems during technical inspection, too light will not give the desired effect initially.
Step 3
The film material is also of great importance. Professional tint films have a special protective layer that protects it from damage during raising and lowering the glass, as a rule, consumer goods do not have such a layer.
Step 4
It is better to apply the film on glass at home, because the frequency must be observed. Remove the glass, thoroughly wipe it from dirt and dust, the slightest dirt particles can ruin the whole work and it will not work to re-glue the film.
Step 5
Prepare your workplace - a table covered with clean oilcloth. Wipe the glass with a clean, dry cloth, then dampen the entire surface with the soap solution. Cut a piece out of the film in the shape of glass, separate the transparent layer from it, at the same time spraying the sticky side with soapy water, then apply the film to the inside of the glass.
Step 6
Wet the entire top surface of the film with a soap solution and smooth it out with a special spatula. Trim the edges of the film and smooth again with a spatula until all air bubbles disappear.
Step 7
After applying the film, completely dry the glass, this may take 3 to 4 hours. To speed up this process, glass can be placed under a regular lamp or placed next to a heating radiator. Reinstall the glass, be careful during this procedure, the tint film is easy to damage.
