tint_audiopros Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Does this film turn purple? Haven't heard much about the fading or color change of this product just adhesive failures? I need longivity results of this film in the midwest. Also, is there dye in the adhesive? Im referring to silouhette line Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil with bad attitude Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 Does this film turn purple? Im referring to silouhette line Downunder it definately colour changes to mauve not purple. You would not be able to colour match a repair if the job was a few years old. 35% SP I'm referring to here. Devil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest thatsnappyguy Posted March 7, 2008 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 the 5% and 15% takes about 2 years to start distorting around here and 3-4 its purple and peiling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tint_audiopros Posted March 7, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 thanks yall, is this a nice hybrid or a film one should stay away from , 7 years before turning purple doesn't sound as bad as many others out there. But 2 years & distorted adhesive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tint_audiopros Posted March 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 talked to the johnson rep today he says even though SP warranty doesn't state against fading & color change he said they will warranty it due to there new "100% customer satisfaction guarantee" also he says yes years ago it did turn purple after a period of time but since then (couple years ago) they have changed to the new color stable dye used in other films today. Can anyone back this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
