Yes it is a word. I get those calls non stop;can you tint my windows darker?

1) They say I will pay more.

2)I promise not to say were I got it done!

3)Do you know were I can get them tinted darker?

ANSWER: No,we are legal,we stay legal;I don't want the fine!!!

AND most IMPORTANTLY I don't want to be responsible for any accidents,and/or deaths YOU may cause so why would you even think about doing this to yourself or OTHERS???

Biggest response your a a@#hole,or everyone else has it and The number ONE reason they give me it looks awesome!!!

I say you think it looks awesome if you/or someone else gets hurt or DIES!!!! Just to look cool?? Then I just get a hang up.

What is with these ppl? We have laws to abide by why am I going to break them for a couple bucks,or so they can look AWESOME!!!

It drives me crazy,I get these calls all the time I HATE it; sorry I had to vent a little cuz as a matter of fact I just had one of those calls 30 min ago

OH-WELL buk em

It's hard not to when everyone in your area does it (if they admit it or not) and the cops don't really enforce it. Saying no to money sucks. I just have personal limits no 5%, no entire windshields and no low visors.

I'm glad to live in KY were police are pretty lien on tint laws.

KY is 35/150 but I've always ran 15% on all on everything I've owned and never have had any trouble with the po-po

We tint as dark as you want it at the place I work at but you get no receipt no matter how you pay.

the reason ppl. want dark tint on there cars is the laws aint strick enough on the car owner. it should be like a installer, a fat hefty fine like $350 - $500 fine 30 days in jail 3 points on your drivers liesence and impound the vehicle till you get out of jail. insted of a measly $75 fine. :hump I allso think the charge should the same as a recless driveing witch is very stiff.

Unforunately, a law like tha would have a tough time passing. Receiving a ticket for tint, which is not a moving violation, cannot hold the same consequences as would speeding or wreckless driving.

      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!
