Various Hard Cards Used to Smooth Car Window Tint
Hello! My name is Ron Sanders of Personal Touch Custom Auto World on behalf of Expert Village we will now describe the various hard cards that we use for window tinting. First I will like to describe the little white card Teflon card the sole purpose of this card because of its hard texture is the heat shrink meaning when we are applying the tint on the outside of the window and cutting it this cards is great for using the heat gun and smoothing out the fingers. We don't recommend using it on the inside as much because it will scratch the tint surface. The second one is just a triangular high card this card is great for the inside because it allows you to pull the molding away from the window and it is narrow enough point that you could get all of the water at the bottom of the window and get all the edges. This tool is great for getting to hard to reach areas like bent windows and even back windows. The third card is the yellow Teflon card which is almost similar to the white Teflon card both of these cards are great because of there grooves inside here and to wrap it inside the paper towel. This is usually used for the final squeegee meaning you wrap a paper towel over either one of these cards, firmly pull the paper towel back and use it to pull out the remaining water you could finish up your last bit of tinting on your window. As you put this card in the paper towel it is smooth, it allows it to glide easily across the tint without scratching it and removes any access water above and beneath the film. This concludes the section on the high cards.
