I am having my car's tint stripped and retinted soon, and I have a few questions.

What shops in the Bay Area use a machine to cut the tint, and what shops do it by hand?

What shops give you rounded corners? Would machines be the culprits?

Are you going to end up with less of a gap at the top/sides of the windows if someone does it by hand, or does a machine cut usually leave less of a gap?


Also, could those of you with 15%, 10%, and 5% tint please post up pictures of your cars and/or close ups of the tint work? And put 15, 10, 5 next to the pictures please.

And if you know what the gap size supposedly is, 1mm-4mm, etc, please put that with any close ups.

Thank you for your help.
