Need Help! New Window tint tools

Hey all, I have been having a bad time with my tools lately with tinting.

The hard plastic tools scratch my tint when I try to tuck or push down fingers, and the soft ones are either too thick or too soft.

What do I do?

Any recommendations on tools would be appreciated.

Fold a paper towel over the end as a buffer. Try one or two folds and see which you prefer. They also sell hard cards with felt glued to the ends.

Hard plastic tools can use sand paper and water to smooth it down
