* Milestone Review #900 *
For months, I've been researching for the best tint shop in town. I've got my previous vehicle tinted and the results weren't as good as Tintmax mainly because the guy left a very noticeable scratch along the film of my driver side window and for his warranty, he simply never answered my calls ever after installation. With my second car, there is no factory tint on the windows and we have a 6 month old baby now and I've noticed the sun really bothers his eyes. I've searched and asked several friends for recommendations and finally a pal over at Bayside Infiniti told me to speak with Adam from Tintmax. I called and they delivered!
When I walked into their office, first thing I noticed was that they are extremely busy! Their shop is packed with cars. They don't only do tints, they also do body work as well. So when I finally spoke with Adam in person, he gave me a quick rundown of the type of 3M film they use and the difference in ceramic film. I got there a little early so it gave me some time to think which film I would like to go with. The regular film according to Adam, does not reject a lot of heat and it tends to fade after 5 years or so and it has a 5 year warranty. The ceramic film however, does reject heat and they offer lifetime warranty with that. After checking out some samples on the cars they have in their shop, I decided to go with the more expensive ceramic tint.
I went with 35% all around and a 20% windshield strip tint and I must say, it looks amazing! My interior is black so the 35% looks even dark than it suppose to. I saw the 35 on some lighter interior cars in their shop and the tint looked somewhat weak and unnoticeable. But in a dark colored interior, it makes such a difference. When they completed the tints, they drove it outside and under the sun it looked even better! Zero scratches and zero bubbles! I was really blown away and impressed by their handy work. The cost of ceramic tints are relatively high but if you want quality work and quality material, then just go with it because it'll be hard to complain about the results. They're just that damn good! It's been roughly 5 days since I've gotten my car tinted and I still can't stop staring at my windows from a distance when I'm at work or when my car is parked outside of my apartment window. The 3M ceramic tints give your car a whole new personality and stylish appearance along with UV protection from the sun. If you're looking for a reputable tint shop, look no further, call and ask for Adam. read more
