If you want to have your auto glass tinted, choosing the right tint shop can make a world of difference. A good company will provide attractive, effective, long-lasting results—but how do you know beforehand which shop will do the best job? Here are a few signs to look for to tell you you’ve found the right place.

What Materials Do They Use?

When you get in touch with a tint shop, ask them what types of window tinting they offer and what brands they use, then follow up with some research into that brand. You want materials with a good reputation for quality and durability. This is also a good time to make sure they offer a tint option that meets your needs.

What’s the Price Range?

Before you make a decision, do a little comparison shopping in your area. You shouldn’t blindly choose the lowest estimate since a lowball offer can indicate that a tint shop is cutting corners. Having an idea of the prices in your area will help you judge whether you’re being charged fairly.

Can They Show You an Example?

The best way to get an idea of a tint shop’s quality is to look at examples of their work. Look for a smooth application with no air trapped under the film and clean edges that adhere evenly to the glass. Pay special attention to the defroster bars in your rear window and the dot matrix around the edges—if the tint film is adhering poorly in these areas, it will likely form bubbles over time. If all of these areas look good, you can be sure the tint shop will do a great job with your car, too.
