See, you could do everything perfectly and go out of your way to explain every single step of a process and you will still get hate. This is one of the most in depth tutorials I've seen on this website. Very professional job.

This guy puts care and attention in to the work, and this is the best result. Why? Preparation, as with anything, will always deliver the best result. Good job, thank you for this video!

Great video work showing up close details 5. Excellent explanation of tools 6. Excellent explanation of methods 7. Excellent results nothing short of magnificent! Your video makes me feel like I could achieve this myself at home. I'm going to try. I may jack it up, but hey... fail UP! Heading to your website and/or email to check out buying tint & tools from you. THANK YOU! (Give my props to the awesome camera person & video editors too. You kept the transitions simple and minimal - stayed tasteful and didn't even once become distracting!)

There's plenty of tint businesses out there, but very few who comes close to how he does it. I had my truck done at two shops and ripped it off before I left twice, then the guy did it the last time and said he redid the side window but he did not, I called him a liar and left. It's a shame people can own a shop and don't know how to tint, I'd give anything to know a shop nearby that come close to how good this guy is. Very rare to find someone with this much give a damn anymore.

Thankyou Ralph, Your time and dedication coupled with thorough explination and how you've slown down process for us beginners is truly what ushers us into attempting our own windows. Instead of glancing at our Kits and materials "and even some of us" ultimately giving up, your video's have not only given me courage to try but also the technique/skills to get the job done. Thankyou! Also have you ever thought about a career in narration?? Something I'm sure alot of us strongly agree you should look into!
