We are champions of the DIY lifestyle, BUT sometimes it truly pays to have a PRO handle certain jobs. Well, I believe that window tinting is one of those things that you do not want to get involved in. So, to put this to the test we brought a Pro down to the garage and we're about to go toe to toe ... why are you still reading this? Go press play

As the manager of a premier window tinting shop, I gotta say. This guy has mad skills. Knows what he’s doing for sure
Brandon seems like such a cool dude...damm good at his craft
nooo not suntek
I learned to tint by looking at tinting videos on UZload. I’d say go for it. You could earn money tinting other peoples car. It’s hard so you’ll need patience but it’s worth it in the end.
This is behind the scenes from "my boy can do it for cheaper"
What car is that?
It's a good job I tried to do it in work got through like 2 rolls of film and was so bad and a nightmare got ok at the end but after two rolls my boss gave up on the idea
Don't loose the identity of your show... It is called Money Pit (AKA spending money on car mods)
Brandon is JACKED
Alternative tittle: “Zach is mind blown for a whole video”
Brandon seems like a super nice guy! I'd hire that dude in a second! I pray the Lord blesses him!
I only had 28€ cheap film, and it worked great. I put a few scratches in the film but everything else is immacular. I didnt even use a razor blade on the windows. Just try and learn guys :)
Brandon looks like a fighter in Def Jam: Fight for NY
Hooker comes In at 9:25 oops
Zach could pass as Torey Pudwill's doppleganger in this episode.
Just paint it black bro plastidip the windows
I really wanted a sticker I’m crying myself to sleep lol
I have a 2012silver Prius C. Just like the car in the video. The car is a Prius C not a Prius. I have 35% on all but the front windsheld. That was the law at the time in my state of IL. Before that I has a 2010 Scion TC the law at that was back as dark as you want (Limo tint). You couldn't touch the front.
I got 130,00 miles on the Prius C. Best daily driver I ever had!
does Christiane have a channel or videos?
Could we get a “is upgrading a camshaft worth it vid?”
In Puerto Rico the ceramics tints cost 200
I’ve been tinting for years and years. He isn’t a pro tinter. Should take only 35 min tint that whole car. Not 15 min a window
Hand shake? Really?
That guy's fuckin ripped
I can pick out a "done at home" tint job a mile away and just laugh every single time.
I want a pin of Uncle Jerry’s catfish.
Haha 5 or 6 cars and you would be good. Nope. Try 500 or 600 cars and you would be eh. The average tinter tints 1200 to 1500 vehicles a year. It takes 6 months to a year to be considered kind of comfortable. In order to learn to have to mess up and since no vehicle is the same your going to mess up ALOT. Oh and the reason you scratched the film on the front quarter window was because you looked at it ... suntek doesnt have a scratch coating thats worth anything. Suntek is 1 of the worst film companies on the market. Sunteks carbon line IS a dyed film and will fade out and bubble up in 2 to 3 years. Also the brief intro to film types was all wrong. 100% all of it.
Holy shit, in Mexico I got my car tinted for only 25 dollars, all four windows and back window. I got the carbon impregnated film I think.
i keep on seeing Bradley Cooper😂
What kind of marker was that???
Who else randomly clicked on this for no reason lol
Lmaoo everyone I know who tried tinting it themselves it turns into a disaster. Hahahha
I hope this pandemic ends soon so poor Zach can finally get that haircut he needs :P
Because I fucked my windows to up a few times
PRIUS C PRIUS C PRIUS C
Lol here in Miami ceramic tints cost about 300 including front windshield. Crazy how much other people pay
Can we have Brandon replace Jeremiah please 😂
Brandon’s talent is vast I can’t wait for the follow up noob Vs pro car wrap video!
Wideboy thr miata
Zach first two episodes: you don’t need very expensive tools. Also Zach: uses snap on tools
Since you lost no clarity
You not paying attention im official perfectly done i give you fake shots to fuck with you yes by making the shit look underwhelming
As the manager of a tint shop, this is one of the hardest Donut episodes to watch 😂 At least y’all are using SunTek.. sad it was just Carbon 😞 My shop uses three SunTek film lines for automotive - Carbon, CXP (which is a premium carbon if you will), and then there and their CeramicIR (CIR). We ALWAYS hand cut and we take a lot of pride in our work.
Is there no carona where you guys are?
just got ceramic tint on my car, its actually insane how i cant feel the sun through it, def worth, well im in Aus where the sun will kill you so maybe not so worth if you arent in a sunny ass hot country
I just bought a new F250 STX crew cab. I had the back window, and rear door windows tinted at 15%, and the front windows at 20% with the ceramic tint. At first I thought that I should of went darker, but after a couple of weeks I am happy with it. The front windshield is massive and needs to be tinted. I know it illegal, but....
Make a moneypit crown vic😭
Congratulations you made ugly prius look more uglier
Hi Zach I really like your hair
This man wore a dif color carhart beanie the past like 10 episodes
Pristine edge
I don't even like the idea of how tint works, like they get the glue soaked and then just squeegee the water out like that's gonna stick good, just seems sketchy to me
Can installed tint be removed and re install a better-cut-one?
Isn't blocking infrared light a bad thing? Because the sun's energy comes as visible light and you would be keeping the radiation from your dash/seats inside. Actually, windows are not great at letting IR radiation out, that's why cars get hot in the sun.
Modern Windows are blocking UV already
Tried it once. NEVER again! This episode was pretty much my experience.
Its looks shitty as hell (very nice guy btw)
This video has been shot at media headquarters 160 E tamarack Ave Inglewood ,ca 90301
Fun fact : They call this variant of Prius Toyota Aqua in my country
Best place to work 160 E tamarack Ave Inglewood, ca 90301
So... You paid Brandon to fix the other side right?
When I bought one of my previous cars, it came with tinted windows, which creased over time, and eventually, I had to get it replaced because it looked ugly. I paid a locally well-known window tint company to install it and they gave me a lifetime warranty that is transferrable to a new owner. When I got another car, I went with the same company since I knew that the window tint of my old car lasted a few years under my ownership. Basically, you CAN install window tints on your own, but unless you're confident in your skills, then you shouldn't do it.
Work on fricking miata
Where's that hoodie from?
Hey, are you guys gonna get a new car for the show after the miata?
$700 for ceramic?? I hope my local shops don't watch this video...
I tinted my grandpas rear window once. It took around an hour and a half but results were honestly really good. Not bad for a dude tinting Hot Wheels.
Bruh love to aqua
When I saw that ad I though he was doing a give away on the mx5
I laugh whenever I see a moron in my city with a do-it-yourself window tint job. It always peels off within a year or so because they ignore the First Commandment of window tinting: Thy holy window must be CLLLLEEEEEEAAAAAAANNNNN. I mean it must be cleaner than a food factory. In one video run by a guy who does detailing, he spent MORE time cleaning the window than actually applying the window tint. That's NORMAL. Always pay a professional to do it. Always.
2 days later. Tinting my miata! (It turned out horrible)
I got the email for the pins and thought "oh ok cool I'll get one in a few days but when he said how many were being made I scurried over there to get one and they were sold out😭😭😭
😂 you can fix cars but can't tint! my first time was pretty good without using a heat gun. bought some good tint film from O Reillys and still looks good to this day! It helps to watch videos before you do it lol. its not that hard just takes practice. since then ive tinted a couple other cars and saved money. would still use a pro if I had the money and was feeling lazy
Repetition is king when learning something new
The yellow bar made me think it was an ad, so i fast-forwarded, but realized that there wasn't much of an ad. just fyi for donut so they know.
Every project is a DIY project.
Well I didn't get a Miata pin, but I did buy a dark mode boost creeps shirt!
I've tinted my own windows no it's not as good as a professional but its definitely doable. It's worth it on. a nugget if it's a nice car then pay for a pro
Jobe should wrap the miata himself on MP!
You guys should make a video on this guy's free valve miata. uzload.info/fun/emyBfZDMmYt5rKc/video
Yo get Brandon on Donut, he would make a great addition to you guys! Such a chill guy good at his job and explaining really well
Go with a Pro...
You can tell Brandon been through some shit he looks like he could F******* your shit up if you crossed him.
Pretty boy pretty boy pretty boy pretty boy pretty boy pretty boy pretty boy pretty boy 🤠
dude what is going on... tinting your own car is not that hard lol I did to al my cars and friends cars and it comes out perfect. obviously not as fast as a pro would but way cheaper with the exact same result. don't let this video sway you away from trying it yourself. It's seriously not hard.
Is there going to be a second series of money pit
The guy is literally telling how to DIY what he is paid for. That's noble.
Looks good from afar but it’s far from good.
If you're gonna do it yourself take the windows out. Yes take all the side windows out of the car and trim the edges and do below the window sill line.
This reminds me of my first attempts at applying vinyl, went almost exactly the same way
I can’t wait for the noob vs pro car wrap video! With Brandon!
And....its sold out :'(
Man when I do my tint, I am taking the windows OUT of that thing! Get the whole thing cleaned, tinted, and installed correctly.
Wrap the Miata next
This goes to show that paying for a service is paying for craftmanship. You CAN tint your windows for way cheaper, but the price comes from the skill and equipment of the people that you're hiring.
I need him to put on my phone screen protector
Worst thing it's illegal
I remember those times where you had to put that flimsy super thin plastic screen protector on your phone. Nope, I hated every moment of it and never will I frickin do tinting. Just nope.
Social anxiety much a hoodie beard beanie and long hair pretty sure he has earrings he just needed glasses Social anxiety 101
Always so satisfing to watch someone who knows what they are doing
Yeah .. I’m just gonna take my car to a professional 😂
I can’t wait for the noob vs pro car wrap video! With Brandon!
Brandon looks really cool
