phawley Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 There are loads of threads on here regarding tinting, but if you want complete blackout then just buy a roll of black Fablon (sticky back plastic) for about £4 and use that, I have done this on my truck and you can't tell the difference from a professional job.

callum1990 Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Just a quick note to all the people that have got tinted windows, I have just finished taking my drivers and passengers side tints out as I was pulled by south yorkshire police this morning as you have to have 75% VLT (visual light transmission) coming through the window and my tint was only letting in 23% hence the removal. The police say that they are clamping down on the front 2 windows being tinted and you can recieve a 30 quid on the spot fine. Does anyone know how to get the adhesive off the window as the tint has left a residue. I have tried nail polish remover, white spirits and some B&Q adhesive remover wipes. I had the same problem with this snd the adhesive. I waited till a very cold day and it just peels off with your fingers sound strange but that was easiest i found to get it off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phawley Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 I use Methylated spirit it leaves the window spotless if you are renewing the tint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted April 4, 2014 Share Posted April 4, 2014 Mine were done by protint over a year ago. They did an excellent job, really nice people. I ended up having a good long chat with the owner before I left. I was also told by various people before I took mine in that because of the curve in my rear widescreen that it had to be done in strips. Apparently not My only issue was that my rear windscreen demister got damaged which is always a risk with tints, especially when you have an ancient car where it was barely working in the first place I think in newer cars the demister wires are inside the glass rather than being attached to it? Anyways, I could definitely recommend them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
