If I have got this correct, Speedytim you buy pre-cut kits from your supplier not direct from the film manufacturer. If that is so I would have thought you should be taking it up with your supplier. If they are as big as you say they should have noticed any difference in the film when plotting and weeding. Any reimbursement for re-do's for supplying the wrong film would come from your supplier, as they are the ones you have the contract with, not the manufacturer.

:yeah Take it up with Tint World.

I think that's who he is talking about who were sent this product unless I misunderstood him?

He didn't say, but it is the only national franchise in GA with 3 locations.

my response will be short and simple ... product was authentic xpel film ... no response from Jeff ... removed one kit today and redone it ... took pics too ... regardless it was authentic Xpel film that was sent and removed ... did not install Xpel this time around Suntek was applied ... long story short Xpel has not tried to contact and they knew it was a problem and simply said send it back no questions asked ... ???? back to installs as 3-5 cars a day takes lots of time

What I don't understand is if Tintworld supposedly received a different film, why is one of their installers blaming Xpel and taking it public so quickly.  Shouldn't Tintworld be the ones pissed off and contacting xpel?  Does this perhaps have to do that Speedytim is a distributor for Stek?   https://www.facebook.com/timstekusa

I'm not sure if Jeff will see this but THIS IS WHAT THE E.T. IS DOING! 

 

They announce to the market it's a new product from Xpel. They take out every roll label and sell as bulk. Then they use the label to cut with these films. Because your price can not beat the competitor in China, they need cheaper films with pre-cut kits to beat others.

 

Your CEO chosen the money but not the right person in the market. Have FUN with your brand name. In Taiwan, the material installer receive is not even the genuine XPEL films. E.T. create them for you too.

longtimelurker ... im not here to bash any brand of film ... just pointing out that xpel has sent nonxpel film to their clients is all ... had to remove another install last night on a cayman gts ... had a few installers across the usa point out the SAME thing and even took the time to mail me their samples from a dec roll vs a current roll ... in fact the company that I have done the installs for called Xpel with a reply ... a simple send the roll back and we will replace it was their only answer to the situation ... and no return phone calls ... now for a few facts as someone brought up Stek film ... I was sent a sample as a few other shops around the USA and Georgia did as well on my behalf ... i did a simple install and was impressed ... contacted them regarding a USA dist. as there was none here ... so at sema i will sit down and go over details regarding their ppf ... Suntek has been the best film ive used and before that was Avery nano ... again i do contract work for over 12 locations here and started doing this 16 years ago. ... I will not do a install with any other brands besides xpel or suntek and as of today i will not do ANY xpel installs and attatch my name to it ... sorry it took me awhile to come and reply to the post ... im not the type of person to bash but xpel could of sent a simple pm or message ... trust me im a very busy guy and dont have a set of employees to do my dirty work i simply do it all

      South facing windows DR film

      Install went great. I went with NV-25, I am very happy. The room has been darkened significantly, from bright and hot to much more pleasant and enjoyable. Watching TV during the day is no longer blinding, when it is cloudy it is definitely a bit gloomy, I am glad I did not go with NV-15. I plan on getting more windows done in the future to help cut down on heat energy. Thanks for everyone's input!

      Stratos 70 on windshield, what is this?

      Captain Obvious has two cents err senses to share: 1) The film should be removed and replaced, because it appears to have adhesive blemishes that shouldn't be there, and 2) The film should be reviewed/inspected once taken from the roll to avoid losing time and resources due to manufacturing issues. Little pieces not so much, but back glass and windscreen pieces ... definitely.

      Olfa blades are not as sharp as they used to be

      I switched so long ago... first to KDS but they went away. NT are great though. I use a piece of white strapping material as a cutting buffer between the blade and glass. Some use a button but I didn't like the feel..

      Headlight Taillight Vinyl question... (Looking for CHROME)

      I'm looking for a chrome/mirror wrap for headlights/taillights. No NEOchrome, just a mirror or chrome appearance. Looking to spice up a project. Looking for transparent so can see lights thru film. I have looked and can't find what fits the bill. Any help appreciated. Thanks in advance.

      Stratos 70 on windshield, what is this?

      I can't win with getting tint decent on the windshield. I had 3M on my F150 done twice and still has major defects. Recently did Stratos twice on my F350 and I see this granular spotted, texture pattern on the tint. It's super obvious in the corner here but also right in my view when driving. It's honestly hard to point out and show someone but when your driving and stuff is moving behind the windshield, it becomes more obvious. The lighting also matters. The first time I did the windshield, I had a two foot line on the windshield. Thinking it was tint, they removed the tint and it was apparently a defect in the Ford windshield. An issue between the laminated glass layers caused this big defect. So they removed the tint, I had Ford replace the windshield on a 2024 F350 but when the tint shop removed the tint, they made a bunch of micro scratches in the front windshield, probably from scrapping the glue off. I told them but I didn't care since Ford was replacing the windshield anyways. So if basically I'm trying to figure out what this texture stuff is and if I should have them replace or remove it. Replacing it might just have different issues but also afraid they will scratch the windshield.
