I own a clear bra business along with mobile detailing, so maybe i can help.
With clear braing it takes about 6 months of constant practice after formal training to really get proficient at it. Even after two years of installing kits, I learn new ways of fine tuning my installs all the time.

If you really want to get into clear braing full time, your going to need to purchase a plotter and some high quality cutting software.(Enpro, Xpel/Proform).
Also there’s the decision of what type of film your going to install. I've tried them all and I personally only install Clearshield film and Ventureshield film.

As far as profitability goes, customers normally come by word of mouth , so it might take a little while to get a steady flow of customers. Also quality installs is key to staying in this business. All it takes is one hack job to put you out of work.
Hope this helps.

Ps. When i look at the photo of that guy installing film on that Ferrari, all i can think of is "boy he needs to take off his watch!!"
