rear window tints

hiya

i did watch u tube videos yet still managed to mess it up.

i actually took the back window out i think nearly 3 years ago, bought the film from halfords but maybe that was my first mistake

laid the window down flat, cleaned it with soapy water, dried it off, then sprayed pure water on it, second mistake, as ur mentioning fairy liquid into a spray bottle

then after cutting it to size laid peeled off the backing and held one end up whilst using a large squeegy , ut could not get the air bubbles out then started to ripple and crease

was very careful and took alot of time yet still messes it up , plus i think they have a slight curve in the glass making it even more difficult

after watching utube they seem to make it look so easy

maybe i need to get some from a proper company and not from halfords

after reading reviews about the pre cut ones they seem to come up slighty too short and no good

i would have no problem in having another go but think this time instead of just getting it from halfords again to search out a decent company and learn the correct process and steps in order to fit it without creases or air bubbles

also interested in the mention of using a small roller, is there any particular one, ie emulsion , foam, soft, hard etc

thks so much and sorry for asking such daft questions
