--- Quote from: Chris on September 13, 2006, 04:24:04 pm ---I'm sure this is a stupid question but if I already have tempered glass (I think it's tempered, it's the original glass in a Konami cabinet), how do I get it tinted?  Just use the film at an auto parts store or take it to a glass shop, or can it be tinted well after it's already tempered?

Yes. Automotive tint works well. I did this because I wanted to use an original glass bezel that had clear glass.  35% for a medium tint, 20% for darker. I did mine at 35%, and I'm going to redo it at 20% so it completely hides the monitor surround.

I USED 1/4" GRAYLITE #14 AND IT LOOKS GREAT.  I HAVE USED MARQUEE RETAINERS AT THE TOP AND BOTTOM AND HAVE A NICE FIT ON EITHER SIDE FOR A CLEAN FINISHED LOOK.  MY GLASS HAD A REFLECTIVE SIDE ON ONE SIDE, WHICH I FACED TOWARDS MY MONITOR.
