so we had a call about some bubbling from the customer for a car that was just tinted a few weeks ago and we told them to drop by and we'll check it out. the customer never came back and just reversed the charge with their credit card company without giving us a chance to fix the problem. is this legal? :spit

not sure -we talked about this awhile back but it was inconclusive

I think you can state your case with the cc company but its usually to no avail -thats why I didnt get set up to take those things this time

Its just another way for some coniving turd to screw you out of your money :spit

You can contact the credit card company and give them your side of the story. We had to do it one time since we started taking cards, for an auto repair my hubby did. It takes so frickin' long to get through to the credit card company though... I think what we did was just take it to small claims court locally. Let the county contact them and make sure you add on the charges that court costs will be included. That will scare them into paying.

I don't see how you can effectively not take credit cards in this day and age :spit

Agreed, but I also can't see how the bastards can reverse their card charges.

Hell, I'm going to Best Buy tonight and running a 10k bill, then tomorrow I'll reverse it and keep all the stuff. What a crock of shiat.

I'm with Blade, report it as a theft......

That credit card company was to contact you prior to removing funds.

I would follow through this with your credit card processor. This situtaion can cause problems for you down the road.

You could be charged a higher percentage or your processor can retain funds for a much longer time. That is what is in your contract with them.

exzactly, we had this happen once last summer, the credit card company contacted us and everything.

we redid 1 window just to make the jerk happy and the sad part is it was all his fault, he ripped a hole in his tint and blamed it on us, and used the credit card company to try to get at us, which worked.

any azz that uses a credit card can dispute the charge afterwards if they are not happy. some losers know this and will blatantly try and get their money back just because they know how to work the system.

Had a man stop payment on a check to get back at me for not agreeing with his view...

Had him served to show in court... within 20 minutes of a deputy showing up at his door he called and wanted to settle....

Comes down and is giving cash for the tint... I say, nope... you owe another 45 for court filing... he balks and I say, see you in court.

Man came back within minutes and paid in full.

I'd take the same steps and call this credit card abuser and loser's bluff...

      Best place to learn window tint ppf

      Ppf is going to be the easiest for you to transition to coming from detail and being familiar with car body shapes. Tinting can be alot more challenging to get right in a detail shop, even for an experienced installer. Taking the class from Xpel would probably benefit you in your position because it would (1) give you brand support for ongoing install questions. (2)becoming a dealer would probably be easier after having gone through their training and beginning a professional relationship. (3) likely give you access to a protected product area. Ask first to make sure that access will granted. (4) you would most likely be added to their list of installers on their website if you are accepted as a dealer. For someone just starting out the dealer/marketing support would be helpful, even if you pay a few dollars extra as compared to taking a random class and whinging it. Once you've been at it for a few years any solid brand/product will do, however, some prefer the dealer model for the obvious benefits and build their buisness around it. You'll find what works for you after you've been at it for a few years. Good luck and post any install questions you might have once you get started. This is a really good/helpful community here.

      Low angle haze

      I've got the ceramic 70 in a heat/light cube with the ceramic 30, HP30 and clear glass. That stuff is amazing, especially when you can see it side by side. I suspect it's two layers of ceramic base films laminated together to meter at 70vlt. I hope they never change it. Thanks @Bham. Believe it or not I really enjoy educating the customers to find out what they really need and not try to oversell just to turn a buck. Most of my new clients come from older referrals and when they find me I keep em for years. For sure more people are catching on to the product name and I've yet to have a piece of HP or the ceramic fail that wasn't my own fault. It's nice to know I'm not paying for a bunch of marketing collateral and a butt kissing salesman to travel around pass out tshirts and coffee cups that's added into the cost of my roll stock.

      Low angle haze

      Lower haze when IRR is too high, will be potentiallly lead to cloud edges.

      Low angle haze

      Im not that worried about brand recognition. Ive been getting work with Avery and its got little to no brand recognition as far as tint goes. I'm just looking for a good brand that I wont have an issue with. Avery is a fairly cheap option as far as Im aware, so I'm just getting ready to move into the big leagues with a more premium brand. Ive used STek's tint and I was pretty happy with the way it looked, shrank and the overall experience with customer service has been great too. I stopped using it because their specs feel like they are below par compared to the other premium brands. Specifically their TSER. Their NEX line seems to be compared to Xpel Prime XR Plus, but the specs were more on the line of Prime XR. Anyone know how that TSER number is calculated? Is it just a calculation combining light rejected, transmitted, reflected, etc? Looking into panaplex, autobahn, and global now. More specifically global because of recommendations.

      Low angle haze

      I second the Global suggestion. If you can get past the color(khaki) of the 70% ceramic, it is the best performing film in their line. It has amazing heat rejection properties at a 70% film with very little low angle haze. I don't have anyone complain about it. If you install 50% on windshields then you will LOVE the Global 50% ceramic. One of the prettiest films i've dealt with and I would say "almost" zero low angle haze. It does not perform as well as the 70% in my opinion because they have almost the same "stats". @Dano Hang in there with the brand recognition. Just spit your knowledge and let them look it up if they want too. Global is my favorite of the "big 3" and the recognition is getting out there.

      Best place to learn window tint ppf

      I am currently in the process of getting my detail business going in northern Alabama, and I feel that being able to add tint and ppf, would be a great addition and separate me from some other businesses. I have found a lot of these 2 day work shops, they range from 1 to 5 days, are any of them any good? I would assume the Xpel training etc would be quality, but I was hoping to find something a bit closer to home. I have no issue traveling but if I can find it here or like near Atlanta it would be a lot more convient. Any info on any of these class workshops would be appreciated, and if u got an idea I've overlooked. Let me know that as well,. Thx for the help fellas

      Low angle haze

      I've had good results with the Global so far. No minimum requirements but also not much brand recognition in my area.

      Low angle haze

      Basically, the technology that is blocking the heat is also creating the low-angle haze. Some films are worse than others, but they all have it. We've only had 2-3 customers complain about it in the last 10 years. So not a major issue at least for us.

      Low angle haze

      I have been using Avery Dennison's NR Nano Ceramic IR but I keep seeing cloudy results or low-angle haze. I think some haze is acceptable as a trade-off for performance, but there are just some customers who may not be happy with the result. Does anyone know of a tint manufacturer that has little to no low-angle haze? Preferably one without a $10k minimum monthly buy-in or something crazy like that. Does this only affect ceramic tint?
