How To Apply Car Window Tint 

You’ll need an area with near-perfect temperature control, ideal humidity levels, ample ventilation, and direct sunlight blocked. The bathroom is a good place to start because there are usually multiple sources of light controlled by different switches. Bathrooms are also relatively warm in most climates year-round. Car interiors can be tricky because it may not always be possible to keep the car out of direct sunlight for an extended period – that means no exterior windows open or cracked! If you’re doing this indoors (yay), then consider setting up a tent outside your house over the parked vehicle with tarps blocking all sides except the rear; if you don’t have access to a large enough tarp, try using a bedsheet.

What do you need to tint your windows?

Window film, window tint watson la, or automotive window film is the material used to apply the tint. It comes in different shades and colors and can be purchased from most auto parts stores. There are two types of adhesive: static-cling and pressure-sensitive. Static-cling adhesives are reusable and stick to the window through static electricity. Pressure-sensitive adhesives are permanent and require a wet application with soapy water.

How To Do It

Wash and clean the windows you will be tinting with dish soap and water. Make sure all the dirt, dust, oil, and wax are removed – this will make the adhesion smoother and easier for you.

Use a squeegee or paint roller to remove excess water from the glass surfaces. While they are still wet, apply a thin layer of soapy water to all window areas with a sponge or foam paintbrush. You may want to wear gloves during this step to avoid incidents due to cutting yourself with sharp edges later on in the process. The trick here is to have completely saturated all areas that will be tinted by having only a thin film of soap left behind after you wipe it down with a wet sponge or foam paintbrush. If there is no soap left when you run your finger across the surface, chances are you didn’t wipe enough off yet – keep going! This can be tricky to get just right, so take your time or do it twice if necessary. Don’t freak out over whether you have soap left on the window – there are more important things to worry about coming up.

Cut the film into smaller pieces that will better cover the glass areas to be tinted with a pair of scissors or utility knives. They should be large enough that they’ll cover at least half of an average-sized car door window when laid flat, but small enough that they can easily be removed later without having to lift all edges off in one motion (you want them removable). You can cut window film with regular scissors, but make sure they are really sharp because this can be difficult if not impossible using dull ones.
