At Tint Tek Plus, we use a precise installation process for our window tint. The tint film is first carefully shrunk to fit on the exterior of your vehicle's windows, allowing it to conform to the natural curves of the glass. Once perfectly shaped, the film is then installed on the inside of the glass using its own specialized adhesive. This ensures a seamless, smooth finish that not only looks great but also provides long-lasting durability

At Tint Tek Plus, we use a precise installation process for our window tint.

This ensures a seamless, smooth finish that not only looks great but also provides long-lasting durability.

While window tinting reduces glare and improves comfort, darker tints can make it harder to see at night. We offer a range of tint options to ensure a balance between privacy, UV protection, and clear visibility, even in low-light conditions.

Paint correction is a process used to restore the appearance of a vehicle’s paint by removing imperfections such as swirl marks, scratches, oxidation, water spots, and other imperfections that can make the paint look dull or damaged. It’s a highly effective way to bring back the original shine and depth of your vehicle's paint, ensuring it looks as good as new.

The results of paint correction can last for a long time, but they depend on how well the vehicle is maintained. The process removes imperfections in the paint, but it doesn’t protect against future scratches or damage. Applying a protective layer, like ceramic coating or wax, will help maintain the corrected finish longer.

Swirl marks and light scratches can be removed through the paint correction process. A combination of specialized polishing compounds and a machine polisher are used to gently remove the damaged layer of paint, restoring the surface to its original smoothness and gloss.

Paint correction is effective at removing light to moderate imperfections, but deep scratches that penetrate the clear coat may require additional repair or touch-up painting. In some cases, the scratch may only be minimized, not fully eliminated.

To maintain your vehicle’s appearance after paint correction, regular washing with pH-neutral car shampoo and a microfiber towel is essential. Additionally, applying a ceramic coating or wax will help protect the paint and keep it looking pristine for longer.

Absolutely! Even new cars can benefit from paint correction to remove any imperfections caused during the manufacturing process or from transportation. In fact, many car owners opt for paint correction shortly after purchasing their vehicle to ensure it looks its best from day one.

PPF is made from a durable, clear urethane material. This advanced polymer film is engineered to protect a vehicle’s paint from scratches, stone chips, UV damage, and contaminants. The film is designed to be both flexible and tough, allowing it to conform seamlessly to the contours of the vehicle. The key feature of STEk PPF is its self-healing technology, which allows light scratches or swirl marks to disappear when exposed to heat, either from sunlight or a warm surface. This unique ability helps maintain the film’s smooth, flawless appearance over time.

While we aim for 99%+ coverage with our Paint Protection Films and it's important to note that these materials are not paint, and achieving 100% perfect coverage is not always possible. Minor imperfections such as slight lifting on sharp curves, rivets, seams, or edges—even on flat surfaces—can occasionally occur. These are natural characteristics of the material, and some flaws are to be expected.

We carefully place seams in the material to reduce issues like bubbling or lifting as much as possible, but some areas may still show minor signs. To ensure you're comfortable with the final result, we encourage you to ask a Tint Tek Plus team member to give you a better understanding of how your vehicle will look once PPF is applied.

Paint Protection Film (PPF) should not cause damage to your vehicle's factory paint or repainted surfaces. However, if your paint is already chipped or the panels have been repainted, there’s a chance that the film may lift the paint or clear coat during installation or removal. Since we cannot control the condition or quality of your vehicle's paint—whether it’s original or repainted—we are not liable for any peeling or damage that might occur during the process. We recommend ensuring that your paint is in good condition before applying PPF or vinyl wrap to avoid any potential issues.

Our goal is to always provide you with the highest-quality installation, and we are continuously evolving to be the best in the industry. However, achieving a perfectly flawless look can be challenging due to PPF being an 8mm film, not paint. Common irregularities, such as tack marks, stretch marks, or seams, are normal and necessary to ensure proper adhesion and a secure, long-lasting installation.

Even with our skilled installation team, small imperfections may still occur, especially on sharp corners or concave areas of your vehicle. While we are always working to minimize these issues and improve our techniques, it's important to understand that eliminating every wrinkle or bubble completely can be difficult.

In short, while we strive for perfection and are constantly evolving to reduce these imperfections, the nature of working with PPF means that some slight irregularities may still be present. Rest assured, you will still receive a top-quality result that significantly enhances and protects your vehicle.

In some cases, yes, it may be necessary to remove certain parts of your vehicle to ensure a clean and seamless installation. Parts like mirrors, badges, or trim pieces are sometimes taken off to achieve a perfect wrap or film application. This step helps us ensure that the film fits precisely and avoids any potential lifting or wrinkles. Our goal is to ensure your vehicle looks flawless, and part of that process can involve removing parts to provide a more thorough and professional finish

Yes, we perform a light polish on the vehicle before applying the Paint Protection Film (PPF). This is important because PPF encapsulates the condition of the paint, meaning any imperfections in the paint will be visible once the film is applied. Ensuring that the paint is in the best possible condition is key to achieving the highest-quality result.

Once the vehicle arrives, we carefully inspect the condition of the paint. If any additional corrections, such as deeper polishing or paint repair, are needed to optimize the surface for PPF application, we will recommend those before proceeding. Our goal is to make sure the paint is in top condition so that the PPF adheres properly and looks flawless once applied.

Yes, we schedule a post-installation check-up to ensure everything is perfect. After the PPF is applied, we carefully inspect the entire vehicle to make sure the film is properly adhered and that any bubbles, wrinkles, or imperfections are minimized. If any adjustments are needed, we take care of them promptly. We also provide guidance on proper care and maintenance, ensuring your PPF continues to protect and enhance your vehicle for years to come. Your satisfaction is our pr

While we always strive for perfection and take every precaution during installation, it’s important to understand that Paint Protection Film (PPF) can potentially cause damage to certain surfaces, especially if the vehicle has had previous aftermarket repairs, such as repainting, Bondo, dent repair, or work involving carbon fiber or fiberglass. During installation, the film is often aligned multiple times on the painted panel, and the strong adhesive on the back of the film can sometimes lift paint or clear coat—this can happen even with factory paint.

We make every effort to avoid this, but if your vehicle has been repainted or has existing damage like chips, there’s a chance that the film could pull up the paint or clear coat during installation or removal, particularly in areas where the paint or clear coat is not well bonded or has been poorly applied.

As a result, Tint Tek Plus cannot be held responsible for any damage caused to repainted surfaces or factory paint during installation or when the film is removed later. This includes any peeling of paint, removal of existing clear bra, emblems, or vinyl that might be necessary for the installation. By proceeding with the service, you agree to release us from all liability related to peeling paint or clear coat damage.

To minimize any risks, we highly recommend ensuring your paint is in good condition before applying PPF or vinyl wrap. If your vehicle has been repainted, it’s best to check the quality of the paint job and confirm it’s fully cured and bonded to avoid any potential issues.

ExoShield GT3 is a high-performance windshield protection film designed to protect your vehicle's windshield from chips, cracks, and other road debris damage. Made from a durable, optically clear polyurethane material, ExoShield is applied directly to the windshield to provide an extra layer of defense while maintaining clarity and functionality.

Yes! ExoShield is designed to withstand regular car washes. You can wash your car as usual, but it's recommended to avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbing materials that could damage the protective film. Hand washing or touchless car washes are ideal for maintaining the integrity of the film.

ExoShield is clear and nearly invisible once applied, so it won't alter the appearance of your windshield. It offers protection without changing the look of your vehicle or obstructing your view in any way.

Yes, ExoShield is low-maintenance. Regular cleaning with a soft microfiber towel and pH-neutral cleaner is all that’s needed to keep the film looking great. The film is also self-healing, which means minor scratches can disappear over time when exposed to heat, such as sunlight.

ExoShield GT3 is designed to be permanent, but if it ever needs to be removed (e.g., when replacing a damaged windshield), the film can be safely removed by a professional without damaging the glass underneath.

ExoShield GT3 significantly reduces the risk of damage from road debris, such as rocks, gravel, and other hazards. However, it is not a guarantee against all types of damage, such as large impacts or severe accidents. It provides additional protection but doesn't replace the need for careful driving.

Yes, windshield wipers can damage your windshield in several ways:

• Scratches from debris: Wipers can drag dirt or road debris across the glass, causing micro-scratches.
• Wiper blade wear: Damaged or old wiper blades can cause friction and scratching on the windshield.
• Dry windshield use: Wiping a dry windshield can cause excessive friction, leading to scratches.

Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to the exterior surfaces of a vehicle, such as the paint, glass, wheels, and trim, that creates a hydrophobic (water-repellent) surface. This coating bonds chemically with the vehicle's surface, forming a protective layer that provides several benefits.

Ceramic coatings require annual maintenance to keep the hydrophobic properties refreshed. Over time, the coating's sacrificial layer will wear down, so we recommend bringing your vehicle in for its annual checkup after one year.

• Cost of Annual Maintenance: Starting at $225

Yes! But never use an automated car wash. The harsh chemicals, brushes, or cloths used in automated car washes can degrade the coating and cause micro-scratching.

Best Practice: Always hand wash your vehicle using pH-neutral car shampoo and soft microfiber towels or a wash mitt to gently remove dirt. Avoid using any abrasive materials that could damage the coating.

Though ceramic coatings create a strong protective layer, contaminants like tree sap, bird droppings, or road tar can still affect the surface.

• Quick Action: If you notice contaminants, clean them off as soon as possible to avoid damaging the coating.
• Use Detail Spray: A ceramic-safe quick detail spray can be used to help remove contaminants gently without harming the coating.

Yes! In fact, rain will actually showcase the benefits of your ceramic coating, as the water will bead up and roll off the surface.

• Note: The hydrophobic effect is at its best when the coating has had time to cure fully (typically 24-48 hours after application).

While the ceramic coating offers excellent protection against minor scratches and swirl marks, it is not entirely scratch-proof. It helps prevent surface damage from contaminants and environmental factors, but rough or heavy impacts can still harm the paint.

• Tip: Always avoid contact with harsh or abrasive materials on the surface, and regularly clean your vehicle to prevent damage from debris.

Tint Tek Plus is not liable for any paint-related issues, including but not limited to peeling, lifting, or damage, that may occur during the installation of film or when the film is removed at a later time.

• Paint Condition: We are not the manufacturer or previous repairer of your vehicle, and therefore, we cannot assess any potential underlying paint issues that may exist.
• Inherent Risks: Installing any type of film or vinyl on a vehicle involves inherent risks to the paint, such as potential damage, especially if the paint is already compromised, previously repaired, or aged.
• Customer Responsibility: By proceeding with the installation, you fully accept responsibility for any risks associated with the application of the film, including any damage that may occur to the paint during or after the installation.
