I was at a car wash today and vacuming my truck. THis little mexican guy pulls up next to me and asks if I want my windows tinted. He was in an old *** Nissan Sentra with some crazy flames looking tint and it said Window tinting and it also said Polorizado. So I am thinking Ok this guy has to be good. He says he would do both my front windows in 20% for $20. So I pulled up to the CVS and went in to get a pack of smokes as he started my window tinting. By the time I came back out 5 minutes later he was already doen with one window and on the other. THis guy was fast! SO I smoked a cig and by the time I was done he was done too. SO I gave him $25 and he went on his way. I got his card though. This guy is good and he is CHEAP!

 

Enjoy your purple-tinted windows. J/K. Hope he used quality stuff.

 

i must say that does sound impressive. hows the quality got any pics?

 

I'll have pics after this weekend. Its not purple.

 

That's funny.

 

He probably used cheap tint that will fade in a year or two. Good tint alone will cost more than you paid. I hope it holds up for you though, cause it is a pain to get the glue off the window if you need to take it off.

Also usually when I do tint I take the door panels off so that I can get the tint below the weather stripping stuff on the door panel just to make sure it will not peel up.

 

Maybe he did use quality materials, but the material alone would be more than you paid total. The cheaper tint not only turns purple, but also shrinks more than the good stuff.

 

Those mexicans are pretty crafty, i would worry about that! The tint however is most likely the cheapy stuff from autozone or pepboys though!

 

I paid more than that for just my tint, not by much though, I think it was 30 dollars shipped for just the front two windows. I installed it myself though, its not too hard.

Throw some pictures of it on here with it installed now, and then take some in a year or two, I would be really surprised if it does not bubble/turn purple/ look like **** pretty soon. Not trying to start anything, just calling it how I see it.

 

youre either stupid or got some serious stones. 1: to let some random guy tint your windows for $20. 2: to leave your truck unattended with some random guy who is only charging $20 for tinting.

 

I like how you always have a positive attitude towards everything. You make this forum a more enjoyable place

Moron

 

It's not quality film for sure. It's going to turn purple in a year. Just wait ...

How? Everything he posts is brutally honest, if you don't like it you don't have to be here. Also there is a button to put him on ignore if you don't like it. How are you any better when you just called him a Moron?

 

I thought tint turns purple cause moron's wash the inside of the windows with windex. Anything with ammonia in it is BAD for tint. If you use soapy water to clean them you should'nt have any problems.

 

Both can cause the tint to turn purple.

Llumnar actually uses a water mark on their tint because so many people were making "fake" tint and selling it as Llumnar.

 

25$ tint is better than no tint at all... I guess. Down here in Miami you can get your tint done a lot cheaper than in Tampa. I paid $100 for all windows and they came to my door with a lifetime warranty. In fact, they urged me to make a claim if anything faded, cracks, bubbled....whatever. Anyways its been a year and looks good as new.
