Caring for your Vehicle Tint

Your new window film will take about 3 to 5 days to fully dry, sometimes a lot longer depending on weather conditions. Until this time, your tinted windows may appear hazy or lumpy, and it may seem to have water bubbles. Do not roll your tinted windows down until dry!

Cleaning

Window film may be cleaned with a soft clean cloth and alcohol based cleaner or plain water. Ammonia products should not be used. Do not use any rough or abrasive materials for cleaning the film side of the glass. Always use cloths that are free of contamination or dirt particles.

Seat Belt Chips

Caution should be used when releasing seat belts. Small chips can be made in the window film due to the seat belt hitting the glass as it is released, THIS IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.

Imperfections

We strive for complete perfection in our installations and ensure that they are free from dust-contamination. Pre-existing flaws or scratches and metal deposits on the glass may however, be more noticeable after the windows are tinted.

Black dotted edges

Most cars have a black ceramic 'frit' edge on the rear window. Sometimes this ceramic edge is straight and flat, sometimes it will have a dotted edge. These black ceramic dots are quite thick on most cars and prevent the window film from sticking to the area between the dots. This results in a whitish looking strip trimming the glass. Typically this isn't very noticeable, however some cars have a wide band of dots trimming the top of the rear window. This area is so wide that the whitish looking area created is more pronounced. Unfortunately, the effect is unavoidable.
