View Full Version : Anywhere to get left over tint from a shop?

So I have a little project I'm doing, and I need a tiny bit of tint for a few glass lenses.

Would anyone happen to work at, or know of a place (pref NE) that would let me have a few pieces of scrap tint?

Looking for fairly light (50+%, 75+% would be ideal) and only need enough to cut half a dozen 4"x4" squares so pretty much any left over chunks would work.

I tried Canadian tire but all I could find there was blackout tint which won't work.

I'd just try calling around, offer them a bit of cash for some scraps and I bet someone would hook you up.

I'll try more monday. I tried a couple places on Friday and they said they just throw out the scraps and its a hassle which wasn't really helpful

I have some leftover tint when I attempted to do my Genesis Coupe and should be more than enough. I *think* it was 50%. PM if you need it...rather it go to good use than thrown out.

I tried but all they had was blackout. Not sure if they were just out of stock or what.
