Non-professional Newbie here, about to get my new ride tinted.
First I researched tint shops in my area and narrowed down to 2.
Both highly recommended by local car club members & forums....both have near 100% 5-star ratings from customers.
Then I researched films. While there are always positive & negative reviews on every product, I've never come across any product with near 100% NEGATIVE reviews as I have with SunTek! Yet the one high-end installer I really feel confident about told me they used to use Llumar, but switched to SunTek because it's a better film and they've had better experience with it!🤔
So here's my issue....One shop only uses Llumar ATC, the other uses only SunTek Carbon, CXP, & CIR.
What to do??!
This is a post from their social media page....
"Before and after of a rear window customer had done at another shop and as you can see, the cheap film will fail in a year or two..We use Suntek Carbon film that won't fade, turn purple, or bubble and won't interfere with FM/AM radio, radar detectors, cell phone service,etc.. We also offer a lifetime warranty with our film! Tint removal specialist with no damage to Rear window!"
