Evolution the heat

 

Window tinting is a visual product by nature. Yet, most consumers overlook that when price shopping over the phone. You have to be knowledgeable of the various brands that are available. The differences can be subtle to dramatic. You cannot simply choose a product by saying, “I want it dark.” That would be vague. There are many tint products to choose from. Would you know the differences? You would need many years of experience to understand the differences of how the films hold up against the nature of weather conditions and care and how a film looks on glass by different manufacturers. With tinting, you can say, “You get what you pay for.” You cannot buy a Ferrari for the price of a Focus. You cannot make a Focus perform like a Ferrari either. We do not spare any expense on our raw materials. We use only expensive high grade materials simply because there is a difference. What are you looking for? You can settle but, is that what you really want? If you appreciate quality and value then you just will not settle for less. Not only do the materials we use cost more than what others are using, our tools are also the best. See for yourself.


Our clients know who they are dealing with and know that we do not settle for less than the best tint installation available. That is why we are in high demand. You can see by the types of vehicles we work on. These clients trust and know they are getting the best. We simply do not rely on what manufacturers claim. We perform our own lab tests and put film on a vehicle placed under extreme real conditions.
We are in a niche category of the business built for the demanding few, unique individuals who understand the philosophy of greatness.

There is a tint job for everyone. From my experience, not everyone cares for the perfect tint job and that is why there are so many shops to choose from. But understand and expect their limitations on what they have to offer. You will get exactly what you pay for and anyone who does this for a living knows it. I am not saying you will get a bad job elsewhere. It is if you are going to be totally happy with the job until you get rid of the car. Our limitation is we will not go to the level of offering a product that will not last the time you own the vehicle. That is what some of the other shops may offer. We are not a mass production type business. We do not focus on dealership type work. We focus on our clients at a more visual level. When you buy the inflated dealer mark up on some entry level film and when they go bad, who do you deal with? Who worked on the car? It is a fact that most car buyers do not keep their cars for more than 3 to 5 years. So, those resold cars with the old tint jobs are unfortunately out of warranty. Do not let this happen to you. I hope that you will find browsing our site helpful in deciding on what you are looking for.

Our business name was founded in 1991. That is when I started in the tinting business. Now don’t get me wrong. There are others claiming to have more years of so called experience than me. I have challenged and proved above and beyond what anyone can claim. I have taught and schooled several of the window tinters in our area. I have mastered the art of one piece seamless window tinting. Years of experience is good, but how much you learn in a short time is even better. I have seen old timers who can’t seem to break their old ways of doing things and can’t find out why they can’t get ahead. Our company was one of the first in the country introduced to computer plotter film cutting years back, we’ve used it and found it was mainly designed for the amateur. It has some pluses especially for flat glass and you can precut some easy windows but we found that the program is only as good as the person who made the program or the so called cutter. Unfortunately for those who depend and use the programs we found our cuts to be more accurate, we know that is what our clients want and we deliver it. Anyone can learn how to tint. Not everyone is looked upon as a great tinter. We have seen other tint shops copying our phrases and claims, just look back at the old yellow pages and see for yourself, such flattery!

Differences can be seen by the overall appearance and how long the job will last before they look distorted over a short period of time, how they hold up against fading or turning color, peeling, the overall window coverage (no light gaps) and even a more common overlooked thing, the performance. Over the years we have tested over 12 major brands of film under hard conditions on daily driven cars. We have found things that the film companies have claimed to not be true. There are pluses and minuses on all films. This makes it very hard for the consumer to choose what film to have put on. It is even harder knowing who is doing the job. Is it a newbie practicing on your car or a so called professional or expert tinter? Does one just decide by reading the film manufacturer's words believing what one claims. We have noticed a lot of claims out there and found most of them to not be true. This is a very competitive business to be in and that is why we hear such claims. Ever since we found the right combination of products and installation methods, which of course comes with a lifetime guarantee, we have had not one come back for warranty in over 8 years. Understand that lifetime guarantee don’t mean the product will last forever. It only means your film replacement will be paid by the manufacture limitation of film and labor coverage which is usually not enough. I have seen bad cases of bubbling, purpling, distortion, delamination and so on. I have seen cases where the film cannot be removed without the defroster being removed, glass being damaged, we have seen it all. Do not let this happen to you! We have seen some of our entry to mid level films go through the test of time and had some go bad and that is why we never recommend certain brands and products. There is no such thing as a “Great tint job” for a cheap price. In my years I have seen them come and go. Great tinters don’t tint for anyone. They run their own business until they wear out. It takes dedication to hold your own and that is what our company believes. We spare no expense on our products and tools. Our prices are very reasonable and we challenge you to compare. Stop by and see for yourself. Our knowledgeable staff can answer your questions.
