I think you'll be very happy with Johnsons film. My only concern would be if you went with the Silhouette series in 35% which will probably have a more reflective look to it compared to the OE tint. All in all you'll be pleased. :lol

Its not a bad film but the clarity is poor when compared to others. Pretty grainy. The adhesive could be more aggressive as well. Personal preference on that though.

Suntek is green and yes Johnson tends to be on the blue side from what I've seen.

I had my two front car windows tinted with 35% Johnson tint and had their clear UV film put over the windshield. I did not do my research before getting this film and now I'm hearing that Johnson's window film isn't very good. I'm worried that it's not blocking UVA rays as well as other films. Should I get the films removed or replaced with somthing else?

Thank you in advance!

UV Protection durability is not an issue with most, if not all US factories.

I have been ordering from them for 12 yrs, great service and no issues when it comes to the film. It shrinks great looks great. Using Marathon line, some Renegade.

i been in tinting business over 20 years and used all the different films before. TBH, Johnson window film is the worst. All the greystone and silhouette is failing and bubbling. The worst part is that they don't want to honor their warranty. SMH. What company does that? promise one thing and do exact opposite. Johnson does.. lol

      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.

      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!
