Teaching the Trade That Changes Lives with Marco “The Film Trainer” Cazorla

In this episode of the Born to Tint Podcast, we sit down with Marco “The Film Trainer” Cazorla, one of XPEL’s leading automotive window film trainers, for an honest, wide-ranging conversation recorded during SEMA 🚗🔥

This episode goes far beyond window tint. Marco breaks down why training installers is about changing lives, not just teaching film installation 💡 He shares how learning a skilled trade like automotive tint can completely shift someone’s trajectory - from career freedom to financial stability and building a future for their family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦💪

We dive deep into topics like:
🧠 Why training new installers with no bad habits can be a huge advantage
🛠️ The difference between knowing how to tint vs knowing how to teach tint
🔁 Repetition, fundamentals, and why process matters more than ego
👩‍🔧 Why women often excel early in tint training
🗣️ Breaking down industry jargon so beginners actually understand the craft
📱 Content creation, social media reach, and why human connection drives virality

The conversation also takes a fun, unscripted turn into some friendly conspiracy talk 👀🧩 — touching on media narratives, technology, AI, and why long-form podcasts allow for real conversations instead of short sound bites. Nothing wild, just thoughtful discussion, different perspectives, and the kind of dialogue you only get when people actually sit down and talk 🎧
If you’re an automotive window tint installer, shop owner, trainer, or someone looking to enter the industry, this episode delivers real insight, real experience, and real conversation from someone helping shape the future of tint education 🚀
