Post Your Window Tints! - Decision guide for the non-tinted!

lovemyvq · 07-25-2015, 09:42 AM

Not so much a question about tint itself more the process. When a shop applies the tint they usually use a water/soap solution of some sort (I think the shop I contacted uses baby soap). When they're spraying the water/soap it will inevitably drip down the door onto the suede door insert. I'm worried it may stain or discolor the suede. Has anybody experienced permanent marks on the suede door panel after tinting? Or I am being completely paranoid lol.

Just had my 40th done with no issues. As long as you use a quality shop it shouldn't be an issue. If it helps ease your mind ask the tinter how he will protect it.
