Decals - Stickers - Vinyl Wraps - Window Tinting

How long does it take to get my windows tinted?

​

- Depending on the number of windows being tinted, it can take anywhere from an hour for a couple of windows, or 3+ hours for a full tint job.

 

In this time, we clean the windows thoroughly, cut the film to the shape of the glass, mold the film to the shape of the glass, and then apply the film on the inside of the glass.

​

​

Do I need to was my car prior?

​

We clean the windows thoroughly, however not the entire car, meaning if the exterior / interior is dirty or dusty, this may affect the final results of the installation.

​

​

Can my Windshield be Tinted?

​

- Yes. Thanks to Ceramic film, a clear 70% or 80% film can be installed on the windshield. Clear Ceramic film provides more heat rejection than 5% Limo film in the Standard series.

 

 

Can my moonroof be tinted?

​

- Yes. A lot of our customers feel the heat coming through the glass up top and a great way to stop that is tinting the glass.

​

 

My car came with the rear windows tinted, is there any point of tinting them?

​

- Factory tinted glass is known as "Privacy Glass" and does not give you the same UV, Infrared, or heat protection as window film.

​

You can reduce the heat entering the vehicle without having to darken the privacy glass. 

 

Do I need dark tint to stop the heat?

- Yes and No.

In the Standard Series, the darker the film, the higher the heat rejection.

 

However, in the Ceramic Series, from Clear film to Dark, they all provide high heat rejection.

​

Both series provide have 99% UV protection.

​

 

What does the warranty cover?

​

- Any failure of the film including color change or fading, back window bubbling, delaminating, blurring, cracking or peeling.

​

* Although the film has a great scratch resistant coating, warranty does not cover inflicted damage such as pet scratches, seatbelt buckle whacking the glass, loading items into car and accidentally scratching film.

​

 

What is UV protection? and UV-A vs UV-B?

- UV radiation is part of the natural energy produced by the sun. Two types of UV light are proven to contribute to the risk for skin cancer: Ultraviolet A (UVA) has a longer wavelength and is associated with skin aging. Ultraviolet B (UVB) has a shorter wavelength and is associated with skin burning

 

 

How long does it take to wrap my car?

​

-  Most 4 door vehicles take at least 30 hours to complete an exterior color change wrap. We spread that out into (8 hour) workdays.

​

The fewer panels, trim, emblems, roof racks, etc. the faster the job. The larger the vehicle, or more trim, the longer it takes.

 

What is the warranty for the color wraps?

​

- Most films have a 5+ year warranty on the films, however a general rule of thumb is to remove it after 3 - 5 years. The longer it's on, the harder it will be to remove in the future. 

​

If you are not planning on removing the film, you could leave it on as long as you'd like, and the film can last you up to 8 years if cared for. A ceramic coating is strongly suggested after installation.

​

 

Do you remove parts for installation?

​

This will depend on the type of installation the customer is looking for. For example, some customers have track cars and do not need high detail as the vinyl can get damaged by racing. Others may be entering car shows and are looking for flawless work.

 

 We have 15+ years in the automotive accessorizing industry, we are very familiar with disassembling and properly putting car parts back together.

​

This is done mainly when installing vinyl film, however, occasionally its necessary when tinting windows.

​
