[quote bazookaman]I bought some of the window tint from HD and tried it myself on my sliding door. While it is a big piece of flat glass, it is a BIG piece of flat glass. And getting that same size piece of tint to do what I wanted was a major PITA and finally resulted in a ruined piece of tint. So i ended up getting someone to do it. I was very happy with the results. Although i don't remember the cost. It was a little higher since we got the higher grade tint of the two he offered.
Being basically lazy, that's the sort of experience I like to hear. Not that I might not try it myself, but hearing from others sort of hardens my resolve to let people experienced in their job - do their job - while I do mine.
Back in the day, when I fixed cars, I redid a lot of home brewed repairs that people attempted on their own. It was always fun to see the flatbead bringing in a Corvette with one rear wheel off and the parts lying alongside. We KNEW the owner had tried to replace his own axle bearing! Some things are better left to the pros.
Thanks for relating your experience
