You then trim the excess.
The soapy water retards the adhesive on the tinting film, allowing you to shift it around to remove the air bubbles.

That is a WAY simplified process, and not exactly practical to do for the back window or rear quarter windows, don't you think?
And todays compound curved windows - that method definitely will not work.
No professional tint shops do it that way, and for a reason.
Did you come up with this idea, or have you seen/done it that way before - I'm curious to know?
