Tinting :: Frequently Asked Questions
|
|
|
1. |
Will my defroster work after my rear window is tinted?
Absolutely! We apply the window film directly over defroster
lines and your defroster will continue to function as before.
In fact, you may begin using your defroster as soon as you
leave the shop, this will actually speed up the drying process.
|
|
|
| 2. |
Do you use one
piece of film to tint each window or will several pieces
be glued together?
We require all of our installers to use a single piece of film
for each window because this provides for a better appearance
and diminishes the risk of peeling. All of our installers are
masters of their trade and have years of experience in the industry.
|
| 3. |
Will there be visible gaps between
the window film and the edges of the windows?
No, we cut all window film to the exact shape and size of your
vehicle's windows, and make certain that there are no visible
gaps or imperfections.
|
| 4. |
Can window film be applied in wet
or cold weather?
Yes, window film can be installed in any weather. However, when
window film is installed in cold or wet weather, the adhesive
may take longer to dry.

Where can I see examples of your
work?

| 6. |
How long does the installation
process take?
The installation process takes 2 to 3 hours on average.
However, the length of the installation process greatly depends
on the cleanliness of the vehicle and the shape of the windows.
|
| 7. |
Can I roll down my windows after
window film installation?
No, at least not for the first 3 to 5 days, it takes
time for the film adhesive to dry and rolling down your windows
too soon can damage the window film.
|
| 8. |
I heard that window
film contains metallic particles, will this affect the
performance of my vehicle's navigation equipment?
In some applications metallic or semi-metallic films can
cause interference with AM radio and Satellite Navigation signal
reception. The only way to be 100% guaranteed that there will
be zero interference is to use a metal free film. For these
applications we carry and recommend utilizing 3M ColorStable.
This film is 100% guaranteed not to interfere with Satellite
Navigation or radio signals.
|
| 9. |
Do you provide a warranty?
Yes! We offer a lifetime warranty on both the film and
installation. If there are any defects or imperfections in
the window film after installation, we will gladly fix the
problem. However, we are not responsible for any damage caused
by the customer or general wear and tear.
|
|
10. |
Are tinted windows legal?
Yes, tinted windows are legal. However, the Washington
State Patrol has specific visibility standards and you will
be ticketed if your window film is too dark. All of our installers
are well versed in Washington State window film regulations
and will be more than happy to answer any questions you might
have. Click here for more information http://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=46.37.430.
