I have nothing good to say about this company or product. The first order was applied to the doors of my truck with the windows out. That was OK but the rear window installation failed due to bubbles. My error. No big deal but I needed to buy more film. My second order of the same part number from the same seller arrived as a different color. The blueish one in the photo. I needed this resolved so I tried to contact Motoshield numerous times through their website, phone, email, Facebook, and Amazon. I never got a reply. So I had to order more film not knowing what color I was going to receive. Luckily, it was what I needed but then came installing on a window with a very slight curve (out of the vehicle even). I tried with the help of someone who has done numerous cars and we could not get the "fingers" to lay flat when heating on the opposite of the glass. At this point, I hired a professional to do it and they were able to do an OK job (not great) but it took them about 3 hours of fighting to finish a single window (out of the vehicle). In a nutshell, the film is difficult to apply, you don't know what color you will get, and the customer service is non-existent. Buyer beware.

Like any other tint I have used, feels a bit "harder" than other more expensive tints I have used which is not necessarily a bad thing, however, if you are new to tinting it might be harder to avoid creases applying it. But with any tint, your success is dependent on the groundwork; a: super clean windows and areas around the windows and especially inside the window trims, b; the cut outs of the film. If you are to generous when trimming the film you will have to work with excess materials making it more difficult to apply the film, moving it around and after cutting creates bigger risks of more creases and gunk to be applied to the back of the film creating "fingers" and "hairlines" etc. so patience and caution when trimming is key, and plenty of whatever solution you are using, leave NO dry-spots alone on the film or the window. If the windows are flat enough which most SUV/Truck front windows are, no need to pre-shrink the film, at least in my experience and I have done several, not even on most mid sized Sedans I have avoided pre-shrinking the tint with excellent results, but I have used different tint for those imported from Europe that are much much more plyable. Important to remember, I have seen people complaining that the film will not stick, as it turns out though, some people are forgetting to remove the protective film, which is transparent and a bit tricky to remove and you can easily break the film trying to remove it. Another thing people are doing is that they cut the film from the inside of the window which leaves you with the adhesives on the wrong side of the film and therefor not sticking, to avoid this, make sure you know which side has the adhesives, and the easiest way of removing the protective film is simply to take two pieces of tape and tape it on both sides of the corner of the film, once you the tint secured on the outside window, the protective film will stick on the tape and the tint on the other piece of tape and you can carefully separate the protective film from the tint by pulling the tape pieces apart. I hope I made sense here, voila! protective layer easily removed. Now you can spray the inside window and the tints adhesive side and carefully transfer the tint to the inside of the window and get to work on the final cuts and application. Now, only time will tell weather the adhesive is good enough on this tint to give it a better rating, its simply too soon to tell, I applied it last night. But from what I can tell you at this time, this tint is not much different from any other tint I have used from name brand manufacturers like Gila or similar. The 70% VLT is perfect for the front windows, not too light or dark. Packaging of this tint arrived well packaged so I had no issues with a damaged roll, the 20" x 10' roll will give you just enough for 3 SUV (Tahoe) front windows, so you can afford one mess up :) So my tip for the application solution; I used for this project, a 16oz spray bottle filled with water, I dropped about a 3 quick second light squeeze of Mrs Meyers dish soap in there and let it mix well. But any mild soap will do the trick, baby soap is great, just don't over do the soap, if its a hot day you might want to use a tad bit more for movability if the heat vaporizes the water to fast, but other than that you don't want to use to much, all you need it for is for the tint to be able to slide where you need it to be before the adhesive dries to the window. Once applied, do not use the windows for at least 3 days since the tint need a bit of time to cure properly or you risk undoing the tint. Good luck.

The wrap is not even enough for all 4 windows let alone 5 with the back windshield. The end of the wrap came in folded like in the picture so it couldn't be used. Very disappointed.

This is great for a DIY. The film is easy to work and shrink. Also keeps most of the out.
