Would highly recommend this spot. Very knowledgeable and informative about each of the packages they offer. Very fast installation, said it would take 2 hours and got me out in one hour. I asked for ceramic tints Xpel Prime 45% front windshield and 20% all around and they delivered. Would go again if I need another car done.

Really awesome experience all the way around from my initial phone call through the whole process it was a outstanding customer experience. Its a real challenge today to find a company that sincerely offers customer service top tp bottom, these guys do just that. I drove all the way from Baltimore to Apex to get my new truck tinted I made that decision after I hang up the phone with William the owner I knew I had finally found a place that not only appreciated my business had the experience and also offered the top of the line product and quality work I was looking for. I went in on a Saturday and the guy behind the counter was freaking awesome (so sorry I can't remember his name) was handling the Saturday morning rush perfectly greeting everyone with a smile it was nice to see I waited my turn got all my questions answered and away he went to the back to do the job as well, this guy was a rock star I'm telling ya lol. The job was perfect the tint is freaking outstanding and I'm 100% grateful! Thanks Apex, William and the gentleman that was manning the store that morning I'll be back with my next vehicle I'm trying to convince myself to get the Ceramic Coating coating I know it'll be worth it but just can't fit it in the budget right now -

Tint and ceramic

Great tint and ceramic. Had a few tiny bubbles in the tint - probably cold weather - stopped by the shop and they fixed it right up. Good price, transparent, easy scheduling.

Very professional and punctual! I've been taking my cars here for sometime now. Whether you need PPF, tint, or a new wrap, they're the team to trust. They are not only efficient, but produce high quality work as well. I highly recommend this place for anyone who needs work done to their car!

This is after getting heat reducing 3m Ceramic 35% with all the glass in this car sun is brutal

I Sent requests for quotes for ceramic window tinting . I got almost immediate response from William at Apex. His response was accurate detailed and complete. He answered follow up questions as well. Based on this I called his shop next day and made an appointment. William was even better in person than email. He carefully answered my questions and I made the decision to have the work done. It was done in the time frame promised and looks excellent. Actual install was done by Jimmie I think. Lifetime warranty as well.

Absolutely the best customer service out there. So helpful and steered me in the right direction on which to tint to use on my front windows. Work done was flawless. My car looks great! Thanks again!

I don't normally leave reviews but felt I needed to after the great communication and quality of work. I emailed for a quote on a Monday, fully expecting a little while for a reply. I immediately got a response and was able to be schedule for the upcoming Wednesday (2 days!!). I arrived at my allotted time and was immediately greeted and walked through a couple different options. Once all the papers were signed, was told about 2.5 hours time. No biggie. Showed back up about 2.5 hours later and my car was being finished up. Overall, the communication and quality of work is outstanding. Would recommend.

See all

!!! DO NOT GO TO AUTO OBSESSIONS !!! I've had the…read moreunfortunate experience of using their mechanic services twice, and I promise you there will not be a third. This mechanic shop is attached to the Stevens Forrest Exxon, located just off of Rt. 29 and Broken Land Parkway in Columbia MD (not far from my home). Due to their proximity to my house, I stopped in there to service my Ford Explorer about two years ago. They replaced the serpentine belt and damaged my vehicle by forcing too much refrigerant into the system. I discovered this once I took it to another shop, and they told me that whomever worked on my serpentine belt, damaged the system. With that bad experience behind me and needing a state inspection for a different vehicle, last week (03/16/26) I figured this would be a quick in and out process. They advised that it would take approximately two hours to complete and they would contact me. After four hours, I called them for an update. They advised that my 2023 Jeep Grand Cherokee had failed the state inspection because of its windshield tint and faulty rear windshield wiper. I was shocked at what they said was the cause of the failure, but I literally laughed out loud when they said that the repairs would cost over $600. I kept my composure as I advised them I was headed back to their mechanic shop to retrieve my vehicle. This experience cost me $150 Since this vehicle is a work vehicle, I took it directly to a Jeep Dealership in nearby Clarksburg MD for them to perform the state inspection. They did advise that the tint would need to come off due to state inspection regulations, but they advised that my rear windshield wiper was functioning just fine. Now I am not sure what occurred for the rear windshield wiper to "fail" at their location, but function perfectly fine and "pass" the next morning at dealership. Also, Auto Obsession lists tinting as one of their services, so I would believe they could have simply offered to take the tint off my two front windows. I am still clueless on the faulty rear windshield wipe scam they attempted to run on me. In conclusion, I have had two unpleasant experiences with this location, and I would not recommend anyone utilizing their mechanic shop services. I will share pictures of both state inspection receipts to show what Auto Obsession claimed was a failure vs what the Jeep dealership performed to pass the same state inspection.

Very friendly and affordable prices. The owner was friendly and explained everything to me.read more

We also had a vehicle where the tinting on the back window was bubbling up (done by another co. years ago) that needed to be removed to pass MD state inspection. Frank again went over the details and did a great job on removing the tinting. I'd definitely recommend.

I had an outstanding experience. I brought in my 2020 Ford Escape to get tinted and walked out…read moregenuinely impressed, not just with the tint, but with the overall customer service. Frank took care of me from the moment I stepped inside. He greeted me right away, was professional, and made the whole process feel easy. I didn't know much about tint options going in, just that I wanted quality work done, and he took the time to explain everything clearly. He walked me through the different tint levels, the benefits of ceramic, and what I'd be getting for my money. I ended up going with the ceramic option, and I'm glad I did. The finished result looks amazing. Clean, sharp, and exactly what I was hoping for. The job was completed in about two hours, and the entire process was smooth and hassle-free. Frank also explained the lifetime warranty and long-term benefits without making it feel like a sales pitch. For the quality of work and service provided, the pricing felt fair and worth it. If you're in the Columbia area and looking for professional tint work done right, this is the spot. I'll definitely be coming back, my wife's vehicle is next on the list.

During the pandemic, I purchased a classic van. It came without a stereo; the previous owner…read moreremoved it. I had a small budget for something temporary so I purchased a Pioneer unit on Amazon. Afterwards, I contacted Hot Tint in May 2022. They responded to me that day and told me to stop by the shop. I made an appointment for later that week. When I arrived, I asked them to install the unit and a backup camera. I can't recall how much time it took but it was done in a reasonable amount of time and I'm happy with their service. I called a few other shops around this time. A couple had other projects and couldn't get to me for a few months. A couple of others didn't want to touch the van because of its age, manufactured in 1989. Hot Tint was straight-forward. They said let them see what I have and they'll let me know if they could use what I had or needed something else. I appreciate that approach. I did have a couple of problems but they were responsive. While driving home, my radio rebooted twice. The cable came loose so they told me to return to the shop so that they could fix it. The second is my clock resets to 12:00 every time the vehicle is restarted. They told me to bring it by so that they can fix it but I haven't. I'm rarely on the screen to see the time and just had other priorities. I mention these items to show that they were responsive and willing to troubleshoot the problem. I rate them high also because there are many mechanics and technicians who can work on a classic vehicle but refuse to do so. There are a handful like Hot Tint that jumps right in and do the job. I'm finally ready to add an amp and subwoofer so I will be contacting them again soon.

I've worked with Hot Tints and Sound many times in the past and always had great experiences, so I…read moreassumed this visit would be the same. I was happy to schedule tinting and a remote start installation. Unfortunately, my experience walking through the door this time was immediately negative. I understand I was 39 minutes late, but the front desk representative repeatedly emphasized how important their time was, without considering other factors like traffic. The constant badgering made the situation uncomfortable and unprofessional. Ultimately, I decided to leave because the interaction didn't feel respectful or customer-focused. This is not the best way to treat a returning client who has had positive experiences before.

It's $280 if you don't want the front windshield done. Speaking of which, the darkest they'll do for windshield is 45%. For no ceramic I believe it's $180 for five windows, addition $100 for the windshield which is always going to be ceramic regardless of if the rest of the car is ceramic. Not hard to find, wasn't too sure on where to park when I got there. If you knock, I don't believe anyone will answer lol so just walk right in. Okay this is not the place you'll receive the friendliest customer service. They're not mean or rude. Just not the most welcoming. But it's cool I'm here for tints not to make BFFs. I was told three hours but they actually got it done in half the time because an additional associate came in to help at the end of the day so that was great. No one wore mask and there's no waiting area so just keep that in mind. I knew I would be in and out and didn't plan on staying to wait so I was cool. Overall nice job. Tints are still "drying" which they said takes 2-3 weeks. There's a small bubble at the top of my front windshield but it's gradually gone down. They said they'd fix anything if it didn't completely go away at the end of the drying period. They also offer $20 lifetime warranty if you do anything to mess up your tints like scratch it or if your ring hits it.
