i wouldn't worry about it, i've had my tint for 5 years with no problems *knock on wood*. cops wouldn't really hassle you as it's not a lowered car with loud exhaust, and blaring music to attract them to you (you have a stock lexus LOL ). there's a place on Indiana Street called Sundown, you should check them out. they strictly do window tinting for residential, commercial, and autos. they use nothing but the best materials...

True. I'll have to give that a try.

Re: Super Wet

I did not look closely at each posting, so maybe this has be addressed. When you applied the DWG via the PC over 2 coats of UPGP. What are the chances that you removed the 2nd coat of UPGP or more putting on DWG? I thinking this is a possiblity.

cheers,
GREG

Re: Super Wet

^^^^^^
Just thinking the working action might reduce down the sealant.

Might be something to investigate.

as long as you are using the correct pad(finishing)
it should have little to no cut and the glaze has no cut
SO... no cut + no cut=

I did a double take the first time I checked into it also.

However.

A bottle goes a loooong way. It only takes a few squirts to do a very large car (Lexus LS430). I used it on my car and minivan at four coats each and the bottle still looks full. Further the stuff lasts a long time as well. I last coated my vehicle in October 2007 and it still beads well and looks amazing. I just got a compliment on the finish today. It made it through a PA winter and looks great.

It may sound like alot but if you go by $ per use, it is a bargain.

Not as long as the sealant is fully cured and you use a soft pad with no cut and on speed 1 - 1.5 with no pressure. I use the LC blue or red pad.
