Thread: Tinting

Do it yourself tinting from autozone is for highschool kids who wanna be cool in there riced out import. your not a ricer get it done right the first time.

The Autozone kits are usually low quality tint....I've used it a few times on some friends cars but I wouldn't recommend it. If you've never tinted before and you really want to try, buy one roll and give it a shot. Make sure to not do it in the sunlight, your spray lubricant will dry up too quickly and make the tint hard to move into position...When I used it the windows came out ok, but I dont think you will be able to do the back window if you haven't tinted before. Its tricky and takes some experience...Not sure what the rates are in your area, shops around here charge about $150. If you can at least get your passenger windows done, then send it to a shop to do the back, you'll save a lot of money...If you're any good at it, buy a better quality film such as Llumar or Johnson, a little more money, but its actually a good film...You'll need some spray, a squeege, window tinting knife, lint free towel and a plastic card to push the water out from under the film.
