window tinting courses?

Hi Guys

Is there a school or a course someone can go to learn about window tinting? Basically learning how to tint windows from scratch.

youtube has a tonne of demo videos and you can buy pre-cut tint for pretty much any vehicle off ebay

i attempted my windows on my truck but failed when the wind blew the tint together and creased it lol

im fairly confident i could do it if i bought it again, you REALLY need a speed squeege though, i think thats like #1

i tried this myself after reading a couple of tutorials online. it wasn't all that hard considering it was my first try. i would consider reading up online/youtube videos and DIY as a first step.
