Cling-tint - konafocuswrc - 10-06-2007

i figured starting new post is better idea..

so here it is..grabbed cling tint because i wasn't sure which % is looking good..so i can take off when i decide my mind..

but the thing is..

this cling tint got some kind of texture..
if i remember correct, regular tint film got smooth, glossy surface..

here is pic of cling tint, not applied on window..

from outside

from inside, excuse the smears, top side from outside is not cleaned enough..but rest

pic came out grainy, but the object through cling tint is looking dull..


is this normal with cling tint??
i feel stifling, not because darkness of tint but the dull looking thing..


so here is my question..
- should i take this off and get regular tint film??

nothing is worst then blurry windows......i think regular one is better

yup, i tried that stuff and decided to get 'em professionally done
never looked back
could not get used to the blur
ps, it will fall on hot days

I think you would be better off with getting it done professionally.

i do not think it is installing error..??

i m gonna go to crap tire to see if regular tint film is smooth and glossy..
if price is good, i will buy some and do on my own..

called GILA to see what they have to say and
they said..

It is normal for the film to look blurry for the first 3-5 days. After the film has had time to cure it should clear up.

Thank you

Will see if this is true or excuse..

If it's cling tint, it probably clings like those removable window stickers you can buy -- in which case, the texture may be unavoidable as it's a property of static cling plastic.
