This wouldnt be on the Astro by any chance would it Phil?
Take your time with the rearmost side windows....cos they are a BIATCH to tint!

Me old mate Stanley Blade will come in handy...

tell me about it!

bought pretty cheap film, and just couldn't get it to sit in the corners properly.. the main area for the window was easy, but the edges just kept wrinkling, so i cheaped out, and made some removable curtains for the chill out weekend, and will have it professionaly tinted later..

The pro films are much better quality than the ones you buy in halfrauds  and other places.

I had my SAAB done by pentagon Auto tint in london, the guys there have been tinting since it was first in the UK

yeah, pro films heat shrink, so they can do compound curves like the astro rear side windows without wrinkles..

i did he rear sides first because i knew they would be the hard ones, the others would be easy..
