Ok so i just tinted my tails today and ill say they look amazing.. (pics up later on my thread)

BUT

on some of the edges its not completely"plush" there are a couple of bumps around the bottom edges. i know you have to wait and let them sit in the sun and whatnot to completely cure but will those little bumps smooth out??

and if they dont any suggestions on how to fix that?

thanks

 

Overlays or spray?

 

well what have you done to them so far? if they're only tinted and cleared (spray), you still need to buff them. but if you've done that and they're still bumpy them you might need to sand them a bit. overlays, theres not much you can do i think. not sure though.

 

im talkin about overlays. sorry bout the confusion.

just little bumps in the edges only in like 2 spots

 

overlays are never perfect but much easier to take off it might go down with the sun but you might still see little spots under the tint. all my lights are overlayed

 

heat them up with a heatgun and use a squeegee, you should be able to get them to go down a little.

 

Use VHT heat it up

 

alright. and after letting them "cure" for a day is it ok to go back and heat em up aagain and stretch em out a little bit more in some places?

 

Hoodie...that's a good idea...that's what I did with mine that I put on my 06....and am thinking about for my 08 tc.

oh and a side note (NOT thread jacking lol) .... good to see a post from ya bro...was beginning to think the great yellow hoodie vanished into the dark abyss lol :D

 

lol, ive been busy living life lately, and ever since switching jobs i cant sit on SL 8 hours a day anymore.

but to the OP, the vinyls never really "cure".
basically, the soap/water solution you use to apply it underneath just drys and they stick on all the way.
you should be able to heat them up still just fine, if the "creases" are decent size, you could prob actually take a squirt bottle and squirt some more solution under there and on so the squeegee doesnt f up the vinyl.

 

rock on bro (hoodie)
yeah I didnt have to much trouble with the tails I did on my 06 and I was using dark 3M material too.

 

alright guys thanks ill give it a try..

i also noticed they shrank a little while they were drying so im gonna try to stretch em out just a little bit..
