Default doing my own tint

I plan on tinting my back, both door windows, and the two side panels behind the door windows. Are there any tips to tinting your own windows. I always see people windows tinted and you can tell they did them their selves because of bubbles, ect.

I want to know how to make it come out cleannnnnn

personally I would just take it somewhere. It will more than likely come with a warranty, it will be done right the first time, and it doesnt cost that much anyway. Not that its extremely hard to do but you are just better off taking it to somebody that does it all day imo.

If you want to see bubbles in your tint....do it yourself.

If you want a clean job....take it to the tint shop..pay a little extra for a guarantee job and warranty

Good luck on your choice.
