Q: How long will it take to install window tint on my vehicle?

A: The installation process usually takes anywhere from 1-3 hours depending on how many windows are being tinted and what type of vehicle it is.

Q: What do I use to safely clean my windows?

A: Make sure you wait a few days after having your windows tinted before cleaning them. Basically, you don’t want to risk pulling the tint loose before it has a chance to dry. After the tint is installed, your windows will be lightly wiped down, but will probably need a proper cleaning with a soft paper towel and non-ammonia cleaner. You can also use soap and water, or vinegar and water. Click here to learn more about window tint care instructions.

Q: How long should I keep my windows rolled up after I have window tint installed?

A: The recommended wait period to keep your car windows up is at least 2-4 days. If the windows are rolled down before that time frame, the tint may peel off because it has not had enough time to cure.

Q: What causes window tint to turn purple and bubble?

A: UV rays from the sun that are responsible for damaging your car’s interior and excessive heat build-up are usually the cause of bubble that form in window tint. The bubbles are a result of the adhesive in the film failing.
