Let see

rules to the contest allow you to  prep everything first and as long as you dont apply any heat then its ok. 

i think he just bumped and used the hardcard as for as he could go before starting the timer

Are you limited to only Alberta suppliers? 

Nd graphics (vinyl and ppf)

Stanley signs (vinyl)

Express sign products (vinyl)

Victory vinyls (vinyl and global window tint)

Shadow shield for tint ( solarguard and ppf)

Again these are only Alberta distributors, there are many others in Canada that offer free shipping for 500 or 1000 dollar orders

i heard it was a good discount

Could you let me know cost to strip all the old tint out?  As I dont want the old shop mess with my car anymore

Unfortunately for you stripping window film requires time and patience. I also do not recommend you doing it yourself. (every customer wants to try to save cost)

I don't know how dynamic is but I know that when customers strip tint themselves it just means more trouble, hidden glue and issues. You probably will have a removal fee and the tint cost.  It kinda sucks having to have the additional cost but at least it will be done right.

You will be surprised. many customers will let something like that pass or never notice. Some shops will aim for everything to be just "good enough"

There are few shops that will aim for perfection.

you're 22 and young you should be using your money on hookers and blow! 

i'm guessing this offer is only valid in the usa and not in canada

Llumar ctx is also a really good film!

Huper ceramic film

Formulaone pinnacle 

 All good products

its fine doing it, just make sure the installs are really good, that way your customer doesn't contact your boss.

Its happened to me and that is what irks me

LOOKS GOOD! congrats on your purchase!

family and friends should be understanding of your job. The asshat customer you speak of I don't allow employees to offer the same service in my garage which I operate my business. It's a conflict of interest.

quality between pinnacle and CTX is quite close to the same. Its the warranty that is better and maybe a slight bit better performance. In my opinion the hue is doesn't bother anyone. The hue is a preference.  

I also don't recommend getting the tint with no warranty or receipt. Not worth the risk

The pinnacle will hold up great!

Dub IR is a great film its definitely on the expensive side however the marketing is excellent. The film itself is very easy to work and nice to shrink. 

There is a small logo within the film that must be placed right whenever doing front windshields however it can easily removed once the window is hot enough, as its mostly an ink. 

Personally my customers never had a problem with it. Competitors in my area often use dyed films and sell it as ceramic. At least this is a way that proves to the customer the film is original and not something else. The heat rejection is amazing, you get nice display's and marketing materials such as banners, posters, shirts also you get listed on their Instagram page and even put in dub magazine and website. In order to become an authorized dealer I believe the minimum purchase is 4 rolls of film. I can see it lasting on vehicles.

 

 

Im happy with it so far.

That's cool soo cool, do u have a photo in DUB magazine?

Honestly all the films mentioned here is really good. Just find the best installer and you're gonna be fine.

I would go with the Authorized dealer with less reviews, Llumar dealer should usually always be on the dealer locater unless there is an error,  I know many shops that offer discounts for offering a good review. So the 5 stars is "bought" or grandfathered in.  Businesses 1 year in having 100 reviews vs my shop only 7 years in and i barely ever had a review for a long long time.

We all also know that when many people make accounts and throw reviews around many times you do it because you have bad service and you do it out of anger from a bad experience. Many that thank us for our service usually never make time to create a review.

There will be subtle difference in kit design philosophy between us and any other program. Just keep an open mind, and give it a chance.

If you have any issues at all, our two Pattern Managers (Adam and Chris) will be available anytime to discuss.

 

We look forward to your feedback...

I haven't gotten a chance to try the demo just yet. what would you mean by subtle differences? Are there a lot of full car patterns? Last question is do all the kits get test fitted. I'm not gonna name any software companies I've used in the past, but some patterns just waste film when i install the film and remove it from being unsatisfied with either the lack of coverage or the fitment.

Yea! the button or a piece of plastic from your core ends of your tint boxes will work perfect

u always have to make sure your blade is sharp and you still cant press to hard on the glass (might just be pressing to hard). cutting with a dull blade will still score the glass. 

there is nano glass polishes but they barely work.

Are you using a stainless steel blade?

statistically using a/c can increase fuel consumption UP TO 20% but that is depending on cabin size and outdoor temperature.

wow reflecting 92% heat!  

the only thing i would have light gaps on is usually old vehicles with no black perimeters on older classics.

I wouldn't say Mark it up so it's whack pricing, but atleast give it market value for what you're using. One shop I managed a long time ago, once I gave them a cheap quote.  I often got responses like "why so cheap, is it cheap product?" Or one of the best lines were "why so cheap, are you any good?"

 It doesn't matter howmany brands you have, carry one color stable film and one ceramic line,

Once you have the two qualities let the customers choose which film. All our highend clients always buy ceramic.
