Toning of the car of the car do it yourself

The pleasure of riding a car with an unpotrated windows is not much and especially this is noticeable in hot summer days, when the sun shines in the face of the driver and not only interferes with the control of the car, but simply blinds it. It is in order to get rid of the obsessive sun, from the unwanted views of passersby and the like situations and is tedting a car.

Of course, most often toning is ordered in professional tuning salons and the like places, but with due skill and at least minimal skills, you can toned your car yourself. In addition, the consumables needed to tint windows are fairly cheap, so you can even even practice the sticker of the tint film on the tutorial.

Toning as a tuning element

Often with toning begins tuning a car and in fact, it is the easiest stage in working on the improvement of the car. Naturally, toning is the type of refinement that can be easily removed by simply by rejoicing the toning film from the glass of the car. But there are more simple ways to get rid of tinting if there is a need for this.

One of the easiest options is a temporary toning, which is a transparent elements covered with toning film installed on top of ordinary glass. Naturally, such a type of protection from the sun and strangers should be well thought out and provided with a reliable system of fasteners to glass, which will remove the lining and consolidate them if necessary.

What difficulties may arise

First of all, the difficulties associated with the traffic police response on the toned glasses come to mind. Naturally, if there are significant laws that prohibit the refinement of cars with the help of dimming, then they should be paid attention to them if there is no desire to pay huge penalties. But in this case, it can help just such a removable toning that can be installed or removed at any time. In this case, the traffic accident service inspectors are not allowed to make a claim, but only may require lining with toning film.

Removing temporary tinting if necessary:

An important problem can be that such a film can very much to reduce visibility at night. That this does not happen, it is enough to abandon the tinting of the rear window. Naturally, it is extremely careful to tinker and windshield, because at night with the near light headlights will be quite problematic to control the car.

However, for people who do not want to endure unnecessary problems and inconvenience while driving by car or do not want to show an outsider that they have in the cabin, all these interference will not be an obstacle to the tinting of glasses of their car

What will take for work

Before selecting the most appropriate materials for tinting, you need to decide whether we will remove the glass from the car, or will spend all work without disassembling the car. From this will depend, whether we will need to work to remove the glass or we can do the standard set of tools for the film sticker.

Required minimum of tools and materials:

• Toning film
• Soap solution or shampoo
• Rubber roller or spatula
• Industrial or household hair dryer
• Stationery knife with a new blade
• Dry soft rag
• Spray
• Pure filtered water

Try to choose a film that is spoken in the best possible way. Naturally, pay attention to the first place to the film that is recommended as the most convenient, because it is best to spend the first pen samples with the most comfortable and simple material.

Preparing a car to tint

If we decided to save and decided to hold tinting in your garage, let's start cooking a car and tools. First of all, we make a soap solution or wept shampoo in clean water and pour it into a container with a pulvizer. It is best to keep this fluid slightly warm (for example, on the battery). Next - let's start preparing glass. Experienced specialists advise to begin tinting a car with side windows, as they are smaller in the area and even one roll of film will be enough for all the side windows of the car.

Of course, the most convenient to tint glass, if you first remove them. In addition, it is the removal of glass that can help solve the problem with the occurrence of bubbles after sticking the film, since work can be carried out in the room, where simplicity will not be dust.

In any case, the glass in front of the film sticker needs to be cleaned and it is best to do this using a glass wash agent and after washing thoroughly wipe the glass with a soft dry cloth. Some experts advise tinting on a cloudy day or after the rain, since at this time the least insects and dust.

When we wash the windows before the toning film sticker, carefully get rid of sand and dust, otherwise it is impossible to achieve a good result. In addition, if we are glass by car, and not separately from it, then experts recommend to shoot seals and cover the skin so that water or soap solution falls on it.

Getting tonovka

First of all, you need to prepare a film that we will stick. We will deploy it and inspect it to be a whole and without dents, breaks or folds. After that, spray the glass from the spray gun with a soap solution or a solution of shampoo and apply a film to the glass. We try to straighten it as much as possible, and cut an extra part with a margin of about 5 mm along the contour of the glass.

At the same time, we try not to hook the glass of knife glass, as it can leave scratches on it and even chips. After that, it begins a very important stage in the work. To the glass that is sprayed with a solution of soap or shampoo apply the cut film and smoothes it in such a way that the folds are not formed. When everything is ready, we begin to squeeze the tint film, which will remain on the glass.

Peel and glue the film

During the deposition of the film, it is best to call someone to help you. It is most convenient to do so that one person makes the film from tinting, and the second one immediately walked her and smoothed her glass. The fact is that it is precisely a solution of shampoo or soap temporarily neutralizes glue and this time is enough to properly glue the tint.

You will have about 10-15 minutes to adjust the position of the tint on the glass. In this case, it can be easily moved on the glass and not be afraid to damage it. But he is also slow.

After the film took its place on the glass, the soap solution should be expelled from under the films. For this, the rubber spatula is ideal for which the solution is driving out from under the film from the center of glass to its edges. At the same time, it is better to hold the film with your hand, as this will help you not to move the film itself and avoid the occurrence of folds, which at this stage is fraught with a damage of the workpiece.

Cut and dry tint

When we cut out the workpiece, we made a small allowance to work easier to work, but it was time to cut off the extra pieces. To do this, take the stationery knife with sharply sharpened blade and cut extra sections. Some professionals advise to cut the film at an angle of about 30 degrees to the glass so that the tinting by 1-2 mm did not reach the edge of the glass. In this case, the film can be avoided. In the same case, if we toning the glass right by car, we advise you to start toning by 2-5 mm under the seal.

After that, it remains only to dry the glass using a hair dryer. To do this, it can be useful both industrial and household hair dryer, but if you do not have it at hand, you can simply put the glass or the whole machine in a warm place for 3-4 hours.

After that, you can already use the car, but it is not recommended to lower the glass, since the complete drying of the film comes in a few days.

Features Toning Rear Glass

Above, we considered tinting side glasses, which are less than the area than the frontal or rear. Work on the rear glass will be somewhat more complicated and better to start it with tinting after a short practice in smaller objects.

The main complexity when tinting the rear window is that it is curved. Some types of film can reach that it will help to get rid of the need to cut it and fold, but at the same time it is definitely not to do without an industrial hair dryer. No one claims that it will not be possible to hold a tint with one piece of film, because each car and the form of its glasses should be considered individually.

However, consider the case when you can spend work without the patterns and cuts of the film. In general, the scheme of work is about the same as with the side windows, but after the toning together with the protective layer will be pasted on the soap solution, it should be tightened as stronger to the film on the entire surface. The film is quite reliable and can withstand a serious effort before it breaks. After that, it is necessary to drive the air bubbles and the remnants of the film from under the film using a spatula. However, the assistant at this time should with the help of a hair dryer simultaneously warming the film where the solution has already been removed. It is especially important to do it on curved areas. At the same time, you need to be expelled and smoothing the film and with great effort.

It is this technique that will stretch the film where it is necessary and it will take the form of the rear window. After that, we use the same techniques as when tinting side windows, that is, we remove the protective film with toning, spray the glass with a soap solution and sprinkle the film on the glass. However, do not forget that after that it will also need to smooth the film and dry it with a hairdryer.

Detailed roller about tinting side glasses:

In the event that the rear window is toned with a single piece will not work, we advise you to make cuts not vertically, but horizontally. At the same time, the ideal version will be a cut, made along the heating element of the rear window, as in this case it will be invisible to the eye.

Dry film when tinting rear window:

In case you want not just to darken the windows of the car, but to use a film with some pattern or ornament, then when working it should be very careful to smooth toning, so as not to stretch it and not deform, otherwise you will not achieve the desired result.

And of course, if you are not sure about your abilities, we advise you to practice either on some unnecessary glass, or on homemade lights for glasses for the manufacture of quick-consuming tinting for the car.
