Hey All,

I want to put a last call out on TD to any and all small independent window tinting businesses in Australia that would like to receive more local enquiries for cars, homes, deco, and safety to please let me know about your business so I can setup a listing in the independent tinting network. The new site is ready, and each businesses page has localized content that will be important when we start a large SEO and online marketing campaign in around 1 week from now.

Please, please, please, if you are thinking about it, just do it. There is no cost, ever! And it will bring an estimated 36 million dollars of local enquiries to businesses inside the directory between 2014-2015. The future of the ITN is secured, and I will have failed if I leave any small independents behind. I have spent thousands of hours trying to find everyone I can, and I thought I would put out a final shout. The site is www.windowtint.com.au Please check if your there by typing your postcode, and if not, just say the word and I will build you in.

I am very sorry to the good people that run franchised stores under a contract, but this is for independently run businesses, if you decide to come across, We will welcome you with open arms.

Thanks, and have a great Krissy..

Great to hear Richi,

Have you turned any of the enquiries into local customers long term?

That is the real goal... I have also setup listings for Adam up in the mining sectors or far north west western Australia.

Those enquiries should peak around August this year. I am hoping that we can reach around 120+ enquiries per day Aus wide.

All free :thumb

Hey Guys,

I received the WFAANZ news letter yesterday, and in it they have asked for any articles or stories that may relate to the industry. I have asked Ally from the WFAANZ is I am able to submit an article in regards to the Independent Tinting Network, and to say that I am hoping to find as many professional independent window tinters that I can before things start to heat up in the coming months.

I am not too sure if they will want to have anything in regards to Independents, as they are run by the main suppliers, and the advertisement is paid for by mostly M1/MEP.

Have you guys got any suggestions as to how I should outline the article? I am not wanting to mention GTS, I just want to make the guys out there to know that the ITN is here for free, and it will help create more work for them in their local area.

I would appreciate any feedback I can get. I really don't know if they will want to run such an article as it will stir the boat with the franchises.

Thanks guys.

I wouldn't mention stickin' it to M1 then :lol

Write your article and highlight the need to get aussie tinters talking and cooperating and sharing knowledge.

Suggest in your article the benefits of wers & joining the IWFAA and it should be front page guaranteed.

As ric said, give TD a plug and your name (as a sponsor) will be in front of them that way.

Good Luck mate.

ps still loving the Oxide - when will the ceramic be here?

Tint Dude will get a mention for sure Ric..

And I really think that the WFAANZ are doing good things, I just don't recall ever getting leads from them, I just get an invoice for being a member.

Hey Daz, If you could loan me 250k, it will be around 6 weeks... :thumb

I am hoping sooner than later, but just like when I was trying to fix up my house before I started working on the ITN, I ran out of time and money.. :lol

Thanks for the good feedback as always Daz.. Did you get the T-Shirt? Please don't do the painting in it for a while.. They are of good quality.. So it will make a better gardening shirt. :D

If I had a spare 250k I sure as hell wouldn't spend it on tint :lol

Got the shirt thanks Mike. It was a size S , I'm 100kg and 6'1" of lean Aussie muscle, I could only get an arm in it, but my 18 yr old daughter loves it :chick

I am sorry to say, but because the Independent Tinting Network has a direct association with Glass Tinting Supplies, I am not able to submit a story about the Independent tinting Network. I will need to place an ad in the newsletter, which is 3K. So, I guess its back to searching the yellow pages and the net to find small independents...

Here is another shout out to anyone that is not listed, please just say the word, and I will do the rest. We will see very large web traffic coming to the site come July and August, it WILL result in many local leads and enquiries, and I don't want to leave anyone behind... I have made a facebook page for the ITN, I am told that is where everyone is hanging out these days...

      Removable rigid window tint sheets - WTF?

      I created an account just to respond here. I'm not a "tinter" or whatever yall may call yourselves but I came across this product and thought that it looked pretty cool and something I could do myself. I ordered from Lazeway and spent like $150 for two packages. The product is from China although they claim all this America stuff on the website. All i received was two simple rolls of tint, nothing special. I was totally scammed and now I'm looking all over the internet for anyone talking about this product to let them know. Dont buy from them.

      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!
