giving out missinformation

[*]317659

Do some research or step up and set the record straight... I actually know one of the investors... family members and friends have contacts that run across both sides, buddy...

You live here?

If so, come on and tell us all what you know! If not, buy your film from whoever you like.

Man asked who they were, not what price or service performance they had and no one was rushing out to answer the question asked, including you.

What's the matter? Reality sucks now that you've found out that pretty smile across the phone doesn't fit the vision of the company conjured up in the mind's eye.

I'm sorry... here's what unprofessional appears like from metint:

Blow me, you dumb fock!

Who is Suntek films?? Interesting that they are in the same city as CP films.

[*]317417

Suntek is the brand name film produced by Commonwealth Coating and Laminating located on the other side of the tracks in Martinsville. They were once a small player in the DIY film side of the industry until CPF's head of DIY ::lol2:: resigned, yeah, yeah... resigned several years back and went to work for CW.

Investors and Govt subsidy were sought and 'BAM' they're now producing 'professional' film for sale.

Of the sixty or so employees at CW... maybe 10% are former employees of CPF (no lab rats).

It is suspected they are attempting to be a CPF wannabe and will say things alluding to such a goal. I am sure the goal is to grow to the point of adding additional equipment to keep pace with visioned demand.

They're capability is the same as Johnson Window Film, simply coating (adhesive and SR) and laminating components bought elsewhere into label film product. Although, CW secured a govt subsidy to finance the state of the art coating and laminating machine it now operates with, this machine is the only similarity between a CPF and a CW produced product.

Hope this helps...

I will add something if possible. Or please delete. large % of sales both JWF and ST are going to former soviet republik. As company owner who deals with this films in former CCCP turn his head now to other continent - sales of these teams go down. As sales go down - turnover go down = all what it can mean.....I think it's same level secret as MeTint told.....May be I am wrong but I see that domestoc activities of these teams depends from their foreign sales, IMHO...

      Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield

      Since there is no limit of darkness on the top strip, I have wanted to tint it. But I would go very dark, to help with sun glare in the evening.

      Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield

      Yeah that’s a very fair point to a degree I’m probably overthinking it. I don’t see really significant glare reduction until you get into much darker tint. Like you I think visibility for me is more important living in the country. I’ll probably see what the specs list the differences between 70% and 80% and then double check with the tinter as to what they recommend. Likely will end up with 70% with a strip along the top. Air80 seems to be much more popular, not sure if it’s due to performance or the difference in cost being so much more for the stratos. thank you

      Process

      Hey guys - so I work for a vinyl graphics company that is adding window tinting to their repertoire and I had a question about your guys' ideal process. I have my plotter set up and my window tinting software ready to go, but I am completely ignorant about the way that tint installers prefer that things be cut. Currently, I will plot/weed the tint and cut the backing away as much as I dare before handing it over to the installer. I was thinking that the installer would prefer the tint to be cut to shape which I believe I can achieve with the perf cut on my plotter. Is that the typical process or should I not be worried so much about it being cut to exact shape?

      Air80 vs Stratos70 Windshield

      Im in TX, plenty of of what you mentioned. While I do sit higher in an SUV, glare reduction is not improved much at all with what I have. My 80% is almost clear, not dark at all. With all tint, it adds a bit of reflectivity from the outside, which I notice makes it slightly harder to see from the outside looking in, in the form of a glare not darkness. At the end of the day, it's not permanent, it's only money!

      Boat window tinting tips

      The answer is to not heat that area too much so that you leave some slack in the film for when you get it to the inside. Also cut your pattern a little large so that you can trim a thread off the edges after shrinking to not have a furled edge. After you do a few of those you'll figure out how much to leave/trim to not have any light gaps. Also I'll leave a hardcard wrapped in a microfiber in the bottom overnight to collect water and keep pressure on the film while it dries. Sometimes you can take the top rail off the glass if the jackwagon boat builder didn't put too much pressure on the glass package when it was installed. If you pull the rail off of a tight package it's a pita to get back on, looking like it could crack the whole time. Congrats on getting it done. I've seen plenty that couldn't, which is why I price them like I do.

      Boat window tinting tips

      Thx everyone for the tips the install went fine, however i did run into a new problem on the main curve of the glass from thr outside the tint would lay flat on the big curve but when applying it seemed like there was too much tension and it would not stay down i ended up heating it up and flattening down but some of that area got overheated and warped a little, if you know how to tackle this problem please help me thank you!
