I need to tint the back window of my baur and have seen spray tints on ebay.Because its not glass the seller told me it would not work but a second seller told me that it would.Has anybody tried it on these kind of windows,could be an expensive mistake if it does not work and would rather get a guarantee from someone that has used it.

Don't use any type of spray, they're crap, and come off if you wipe the window!

Go to a good tint place and get it done properly.

Can window film be used on these windows though?I thought that because the back window is flexible it would affect the film.

I've seen it done properly and it doesn't bubble up...you have to let it dry properly before lowering the hood....but there's never any guarantee's.
