Whatever you use just make sure not to use anything with ammonia. You could have some serious issues down the road lol..

A drop of dish washing liquid in a spray bottle full of water. As far as I know, any brand will do. I've used Sunlight and Ivory and haven't noticed any ill affects.

Years ago.... I used to work for a Tint shop, all we ever used was Ivory liquid mixed with water. Put just a few drops to make the solution work. Good Luck.

Yea,

You can use Ivory or most others. I have been told by a friend they use Johnson's Baby shampoo just becuse it has nothing in it that could harm the tint.

putting tint on requires patience and i guess i dont have a lot of it.... i attempted to put it on today, needless to say i was unsuccessful.... the wind was blowing and the tint creased up and i just said the heck with it.... i called some tint places up and the best i have got so far is 125 to tint my two door windows and the back window with a lifetime warranty.... is that good.... thanx for the input fellaz

Tinit for my whoel truck would be like 140 to 120 on average down here. Keep in mind that I have a supercab. I had the front ones done to match the back and it was 50.
