Tinting can be performed outdoors; however, we recommend a controlled, shaded environment—like a garage—for optimal results. This helps ensure a cleaner installation and superior film adhesion.
After your tint is applied, it’s important to let the film cure undisturbed. Typically, this means avoiding rolling down windows or cleaning the surface with harsh chemicals for 48-72 hours. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to help maximize the longevity of your tint.
After installation, the film begins its curing process immediately, but full curing can take anywhere from 3 to 7 days. During this time, you may notice some bubbling, streaking, or hazing on your windows—this is just water still trapped between the film and the glass and is completely normal. Larger bubbles, in particular, may take 7 to 14 days to evaporate, depending on sun exposure and the outside temperature. For a speedier cure, we recommend parking your vehicle in direct sunlight, as the increased heat will help expedite the evaporation process.
With proper care and maintenance, high-quality tinting can last for many years. In many cases, customers enjoy the benefits of their tint for 10 to 15 years, with some installations lasting even longer.

We stand behind our work with a lifetime warranty on all our products, protecting against issues such as bubbling, fading, peeling, and more. However, please note that our warranty does not cover damage resulting from improper aftercare. For example, rolling down your windows or cleaning them during the curing period—which can cause the film to peel—is not covered under our warranty. Additionally, normal wear and tear, scratching, or any damage caused by the owner is also not covered. Following our aftercare instructions is essential to ensure the longevity and performance of your tint.
