Quality

Need advice on JOHNSON WINDOW FILM quality.

It's not bad for an entry level film

i worked at a place that sold johnson film once. we had a bunch of cars come back with distorted film within a year and a half time period. it was the HP film.

that experience stopped me from even considering useing it for myself.

I like the film and surprisingly for this climate had next to nothing in film claims in 4-5 years. Hardly an entry level film IMO.
SP 35 product (Silhouette) is darn good. Bit too reflective externally and not long lasting colour stable but does perform. Easy to shrink, tinter friendly, superb optical clarity and great price.

Thanks guys : Jonnsons were the only ones who were willing supply me tint.I Might give them a try.Any more information welcome.

ACE! I want to supply to Cape Town... I am searching relatives in Your city - It will be helpfull 4 me to work with You

Had problems with adhesive failure from the PGC and also a few from the SP line. A customer of mine complained about 2 years ago about distortion and I removed and replaced the tint on his Civic and now his father just called me yesterday complaining it is distorted and told me that I needed to warranty the film with something that is not Johnson's.
Needless to say, I don't think I would use that film anymore. Glad that some of you have had a good experience with it.

Johnson's isn't bad, but if you're considering which films to use, maybe try solar optic (a newer version of SunTek - produced by CP back east). I've got a freind who is a distributor (with international rights since he's from abroad) and the film is great from what I've experienced. However, I've only been using it for about 6 months, so I really haven't seen much warranty work or any problems with the product.

And it's inexpensive - only $280 for a 60" roll that you can have cut into a 36" and 24" for auto work. Let me know if you want to try a roll and I can get you some. My email address is hamiltonevan@hotmail.com

They stock most flavors and can ship it out the same day FWIW.

we have used Johnson Film and its a decent window film ,But Have had call back from adhesive failure.
I prefer Solar Guard or Lumar

Solargard's Quantum has the score on the board for the world's best IMO but what a @#$% to dry. I rather slash my paws than fit it. Such a shame but that's multi-stacked sputtered metals for you.

Devil, we have had quite a few wty claims on the SP for hazing on the rear screens, they pay the claims very well though. We have had claims in as little as 12 months and yesterday one that was 4 years. Having said that we have also had hazing with J-B, Qtm, Mer, ES, F1, & Def Pac in reasonable numbers. It must be a problem that is heat related as we always seem to be the first to be making the claims then they seem to snowball around the country.

thats funy black pearl

Feel for you and Captain because if films are going to go belly up, it will be in your neck of the woods before the rest of the country. 100% fact! A Miami climate.
The extremely rare occasions I've had a claim on SP, they paid immediately and no life story needed. Really great! I know what you mean by hazing too.

More the reason we ditch these ridiculous lifetime warranties but I'm a lone voice except for TD, OT and a few others overseas who can't help us.
