For years, one product has quietly been a staple in almost every window tinter and PPF installer’s toolkit…

Baby shampoo, Specifically, johnson and Johnson baby shampoo.

It’s been trusted for one simple reason:

✔️ Consistent slip

✔️ No harsh chemicals

✔️ Reliable installs

But recently… something changed.

Installers across North America are starting to notice:

  • Different slip during installs

  • More drag when squeegeeing

  • Inconsistent results on film

Why?

Because Johnson and Johnson updated their baby shampoo formula.

🚨 What This Means For You

If you’re tinting or installing PPF, this isn’t just a small change…

It can directly impact:

  • Your install speed

  • Your finish quality

  • Your risk of contamination or lift

And ultimately…

your profit.

Because when your solution isn’t dialed in, everything takes longer—and mistakes cost money

⚠️ The Bigger Problem

Most installers don’t even realize why their installs suddenly feel “off.”

They blame:

  • The film

  • The weather

  • The glass

But the real issue?

Your slip solution changed without you knowing.

What Smart Installers Are Doing

The pros aren’t guessing. They’re adapting.

They’re:

  • Testing new dilution ratios

  • Trying alternative slip solutions

  • Dialing in their install process again

Because in this industry…

small changes = big results.

💡 Don’t Let This Kill Your Efficiency

If your installs have been feeling slower or harder lately…

this could be the reason.

Understanding your products—and how they affect your workflow—is what separates average installers from profitable ones.
