    I think a lot of it was rushing a bit to make sure it's straight. Plus, it didn't help that the first windows I did were F150 front windows. Not exactly small windows, and a bad corner that gave me difficulty as well.

    I'll get some pics tomorrow and show you how it looks. I didn't take any "before" pics, but I'll try to get some from different distances, so you can see how it doesn't look too bad unless you get up close.

    The Grand Prix Coupe is next. Rear windows should be easy, and then I might put the fronts on before taking a break before tackling the rear window.

    yea, I've yet to tint anything, but I think my first attempts will be made at the smallest most easy to handle windows, saving the big ones for when my feel of it increases.

    So tint-pro got you the right tint? It takes a couple time to get the feel of it. Even though i've been doing it for a while, I still start with the small ones to get back in the groove with it.

    The easiest thing for the door window is once you place the tint on the window, start dead center of the window and make a swipe up to the top, then one down. this will help hold the tint in place. Then again back to the center and go up on each side of the first swipe and do that until you get to the outer edges. Do the same for the lower half. After your done with that, then work the rest of the edges. The extra that will go down inside the door, I always found it easier to use something like 2 cards. About the size and sturdiness of your drivers license. One to pull back the weather stipping and one to get the tint behind it. Don't forget to soak down your squeege and tint when appling it to keep from preventing scratches. Same thing as above for the back window. Just a little more work because the rear glass has two curves in it.

    does the spray and squeegee come in the kit? or do you just go buy one, and is the spray just water?

    It came in the kit Tint-Pro sells. I've found just the spray at Advanced as well, but didn't see the kits.

    Spray bottle, a little bit of dish deturgant, and water. Works like a charm and cheaper.

    The install sheet says 3% baby shampoo, 97% water. 1 oz. of shampoo or detergent to 32 oz. of water would do it.

    Yea, that'll work too. I've just always used my own mixture, but that sounds good.
