I'm a fairly handy guy and am capable of most meticulous projects. Installing this window film is one that takes practice. For a first-time shot at it, I was mostly successful, but am a little disappointed with the bubbles and wrinkles. I installed the passenger side, front window of an '08 Honda Odyssey using the recommended install kit. I watched the instructional videos a few times, then followed along as I attempted it. It is not as easy as the pros make it look. After I did one window, I learned quite a bit. There are subtle little things, tips and tricks that make this work, and you don't see those on the videos. I'll offer one little tidbit- be mindful of the film edge. It can be razor sharp and can give you a serious paper-cut, especially with the slippery spray.lastly, the packaging box that the product is rolled up it... The top of it was mangled. There are other photos of this in other reviews. I'm guessing there was a large pallet of these that were knocked over and damaged, and could not be sold in stores. The film was slightly damaged but I just trimmed it off.

Difficult to work with overall. Should be experienced and be willing to use a heat gun for installation. Once all the meddling was completed a satisfactory result was accomplished. Other products much easier to install

Pedi dos cajas por separado, pensando que tal vez haria un error, como primera vez instalando el producto. Que bueno, porque uno llego en pesimo estado, rayones, dos etiquetas donde alquien ya intento desenrollarlo, y parece que pisaron la caja en un punto con tenis de futbol. Mejor busca en un autozone o tienda fisica, no confias en estos vendedores, parecen productos retornados.

Bought the basic version of 35% didn't care for it too much. Bought , this one in 35% and like it. Not only is it thicker and easier to lay down, the clarity along with durability is great. Use plenty of water/solution. Tinted my sunroof on my honda civic, works perfect. Enough to see the blue sky but not even to fade interior and heat up my car. Would buy again. Bough better tint for the rest of the car from Ebay and was precut. Lexen tint is good and llumar is better. Lexen did the rest of the car my advice, heat shrink it first. I used a blow dryer to take the curling out from it being on a roll. Use your head and do it once before you rip it off and blame the company

I'm just another one of those guys who in this economy likes to DIY before paying someone hundreds of dollars to do it. I have never tinted anything before, I was a little nervous about messing it up but this stuff is cheap enough it won't kill me to buy another roll if I do. I was surprised how easy it was, just follow what the Gila video says and it works fine, don't be scared of the product, apply the solution generously! I ordered their application kit which works great, I can only recommend it, that way you have just what you need for the job and know it's clean.The key for this to work well is to clean the glass properly before, one crumb of dust and you have a bubble. Too little solution and you can't adjust the foil well and it creases. Stay focused, don't rush, and with some patience you'll have great looking tinted windows in under an hour depending on the size.I will gladly buy this product again if they hold up in the long run, just finished applying the foil 10 min ago so time will tell how good they really are.

Overall a good product but they don't tell you that this single ply tint is not the color it says. When you apply the stuff you get a blue color in direct sunlight. It works well and doesn't tear to easy. But if you are looking for a true smoke color and not that cheap blue tint. Then buy your tint elsewhere.

I purchased this Item and it was delivered damaged badly. The outside (amazon box) was basically crushed in half. There was no packing materials inside the box at all and the tint itself was basically folded and creased in half. I put in for a return and Amazon (as usual) promptly sent a new one with a well packaged box with stuffing and all. The box that the tint comes in from the manufacturer arrived in MINT condition. I unrolled the tint and cut it for the first window. The first 8 or 10" were damaged somehow. Seems like a manufacturing issue so I discarded it. I did the first window and went to the passenger side. I unrolled the tint for the next window to find the last 3 feet was JUNK. Completely creased and folded. I don't understand how the factory can package this stuff. I ripped the tint off the first window (I don't want to drive with only ONE window tinted) and threw everything in the trash. Never again. I will use 3M from now on. I used it for 30 years with no issues. $15 lesson learned.

First things first, if you DIY then be sure to watch some videos on the net to see the tips and tricks from the Pro's. I can't stress it enough, I fumbled through the first roll before calling my dad and haveing to go to the local car shop to get another roll. I do have to say, price was compareable to Amazon. As for installation, thats not to be complained about here... Every roll of DIY tinting is exactly the same size, and same applications. As for the product itself... This tint is the 3rd out of the normal 3 sold. There are lighter and less dark, but for the three main sold, this is the middle. Its more of a smoke than a dark smoke. Its def is not the darkest out there. For most states that make it illigal to install in the front side windows, the cops may have to think a bit about it, or go get their do-dad that measures it. As for now, this is right in between no tint and my factory tinting in the back, perfectly what I wanted. Its hard to explain, and I hope it helps.So, be sure to watch the vids. Get a squegee, or a credit card. And a bottle with a ton of water and a bit of dawn, The tools suck, but water and dawn make up for it. Seriously, you cant hurt the film, unless you dont spray BOTH sides with water Dawn mix!. Dureing the process, dont be shy, the more you use, the better it will look.This kit will do 2 side windows, thats it... maybe a small back window, but if you have a car, then get the back window kit, it comes in strips of longer material thats designed to be in the back, and in layers, not one big piece... but if you have a pickup or similar with a small window(s), this one may do the trick.Good luck!One year later (Dec of 12) There are no bubbles, no tearing from the window going up and down. I found a hair in there the other day, but thats my fault. Who have written it doesn't last must not have installed it right.
