Cleaning Interior Glass And Cutting Tint
After entering a vehicle, a drop cloth should be draped across a dashboard and console to protect surfaces from moisture. A glass cleaning agent can be applied to a soft cloth. A cloth should be wiped back and forth across interior glass. A clean cloth can be used to dry glass. After measuring the length and width of the portion of the windshield that will be covered with tint, a pair of surgical gloves should be used to cover hands. Gloves will prevent fingerprints from appearing on tint. A utility knife or pair of scissors can be used to cut a piece of tint.
Securing Tint To A Windshield
A few drops of gentle detergent should be added to a misting bottle that is filled with water. After removing the adhesive backing from a piece of tint, tint needs to be aligned with glass. As tint is applied, it can be pressed against a windshield’s interior. If the edges of tint aren’t secured to glass, a soapy solution can be sprayed on tint and a squeegee can be moved across tint to flatten it. If some of the edges of tint are damp, a cloth can be wiped over them.
Non-abrasive cleaning tools and products should be used to clean window tint as needed. A pair of gloves should be worn during each cleaning session to prevent marks. Tint City Corona CA or another business that provides Auto Tinting in Corona CA can be contacted to assist with installing, removing or maintaining tint.
