Default Tint Installation Question.....

I'm planning on getting Tint put on my 08 GS350 and had a question to those who have already put tint on their rides. I've seen videos on how tint is applied on the windows and was wondering if the solution they use leaves any stains or marks to our interiors? It appears they use quite a bit just to get the tint fitted properly. I noticed the roof lining on our GS's sorta looks like felt but was wondering if the tinters (soapy alcohol) solution would show after it dries (given the overspray)

Sorry for the **** question but I just had to ask ....

nope. does not stain.

however, if you're really scared, you can get some transparent dropcloth and wrap the headliner and seats and stuff.

A good tinter will clean up after their mess. The solution they use to spray on the windows is not enough to harm the interior panels and surfaces of your car.
