Has anyone used the DIY tint? I want to tint my son's BMW windows, but I don't want to spend $170.00+, on a $1000 car.

Absolute PITA!!!!

Most likely, you will go through a few sheets of the stuff through trial-and-error just to get it right. Your windows have to be absolutely clean, and the art of applying the film without air bubbles, creases, etc. is what separates the men from the boys.

The tint you can buy at the auto part shops is nowhere near the quality of the pro tint, and it will look like a DIY job when completed.

Save yourself some grief and have it done right.

Use only 3-M tint.If there is a complete window frame,leave to the profesionals,it will drive you nuts getting a result you will be satisfied with.

Like D.I.Y. sex - it is possible, but better with someone who knows what they are doing.
