Most asked installation questions
1. How Much Does Car Tinting Cost?
Quite simply, some cars are harder to tint than others. When getting a price quote, a Tint Shop always asks you for the make and model of your car. This isn't to see how much money you have. Tinters know which cars take more time to tint properly. Some cars with steep and curved rear windows often cost more to tint. Additionally, each additional square foot of window on your vehicle requires more window film. This makes tinting a MPV cost more than some saloons. We are realistic and honest with our prices. Just because you drive an expensive car doesn't mean you will pay more.
2. I have had a cheaper quotation?
Ok are they offering the same service? What type of film will be installed? What warranty is being offered? Is it a mobile tinter? Are they insured to work on your vehicle? Will they return if there is a problem?
"You get what you pay for" is how the saying goes.
We only use high grade professional window films and stand by our lifetime warranty on the ownership of your vehicle our installation is not complete until you are happy we take great pride in all our installation, we are realistic and honest with our prices. Just because you drive an expensive car we don't charge extra, unnecessarily
3. How long does it take to install?
Install time depends on the type of vehicle some installs can be carried out in a couple of hours and others may take up to six hours to complete but we like to take our time with your vehicle, we work for quality not quantity

5. Do you fit the film to the rear window of my car in one piece?
Yes, all rear hatch & saloon windows are fitted with one piece of tint, skillfully heated and shrunk to shape.
6. When I come to sell my vehicle, can the film be removed at all?
Yes, all of our films can be removed cleanly after many years.
7. Do my vehicle windows have to be clean upon arrival?
No, not particularly. But, we do need to know if you think your vehicle has been tinted before, or you've tried to tint it yourself, possibly leaving transparent adhesive on the windows which then can incur additional costs to remove and clean ready for your new installation. Worst-case scenario, we would need to view your vehicle first to assess what extra time & labour maybe required.
8. Now my vehicle is tinted, I've noticed a few scratches on the outside of the glass that I haven't noticed before, where have they come from?
On clear glass you wouldn't notice existing glass scratches. Window films reflect more light from the vehicle surroundings so if your windows are slightly marked, the films will show them up more.
9. What can I keep my windows clean with?
Any glass cleaner as long as it doesn't contain ammonia.
10. Do you offer a guarantee with your work?
Yes, we guarantee the film for as long as you own your vehicle or for 10 years in home and business installations against any material defect.
11. Can I tint my windscreen?
No, we do not fit films to any vehicle windscreens. Sun strips can be applied to the top of your windscreen as long as they do not obstruct your vision in any way.
12. Will window film help in preventing fading?
Yes. Window film blocks out ultra violet rays
13. Will window film help with air conditioning?
Yes. Window film is the fastest payback of any building product you can put in a car, a house or a building, providing you have windows. Window film can cut out up to two thirds of the heat load of your air conditioner, thus cutting down on the run time, the amount of heat that has to be overcome, reduces fuel costs and adds years to the life of your air conditioner.
14. How long does the tinting last?
Our installations are backed by a lifetime warranty on the ownership of the vehicle, so we guarantee it for however long you own the car for.
15. I have a company car on Contract Hire and I want to get the windows tinted but it has to be returned in the same condition as it was when I received it i.e. without a tint on the windows. Can the film be removed when I have to give the car back and will it leave a residue on the glass?
Yes, it can be removed and no, our films don't leave any residue on the glass when we remove the film. You wouldn't know it had been there! This is also useful if you come to sell a vehicle incase the new owner don't like the tint.
16. Does the film affect the rear window defroster of my car?
No, the film does not affect the element.
17. Can I open my car windows straight away after installation?
We recommend that you allow 48 hours before opening windows. This is to allow the film to dry and gives the adhesive time to cure.
18.Does the tint bubble up after time?
No, we use only use the highest quality films and fit them professionally. The adhesives are specially designed to withstand extreme temperatures. Bubbles appear from poorer quality film adhesives breaking down.
