You shouldn't need much, if any, heat from gun to get the tint to fit/stick good.
I've tinted in a previous life. But I sure don't wanna do my svx's rear window
Find a good shop as w/ any gearhead stuff. Which can be tuff.
Check your state tint law,
Clean'em REALLY good before you take them in, including edges and corners.
Blow off w/ compressed air, if possible.

That seem pretty dark, 35%, especially after looking at some pics of an SVX with 20%............Originally I was thinking i would go 5% less than the state's max allowable shade just to keep the cops from stopping me unwantedly which would make it 30%. Once i pick a shop i'll just have to have them show me the differences in the shades. It will definitely be no less than 20 and no more than 30%....And 3M it is............
