20% is perfect for me but I wouldn't want it any darker. Glad you're happy with the 3M... I don't see any reason to pay all that money for HO or F1.

35% looks super dark already at angles since our car is all blacked out inside.

Does that 3M logo all over the tint goes way anytime soon? I'm starting to get annoyed on that crap. Doing marketing for free inside my cabin... Let me know guys.

No it doesn't go away but it can be removed with rubbing alcohol. Senor Stereo took the logos off for me (I didn't want to mess with it and void the warranty somehow)

954-218-1818 Derek Tint

Call me I will hook you guys up! I tint for Vista Bmw have done over 6k cars there alone and I have a shop a few miles away, or I can come to your house. I have worked for a lot of the scum bag shops around town. I worked for a few good ones too. There really isn't to many good shops out there anymore.

I use LLumar film. They put the best product out. I don't sell film at all. I only use the best. I have some cheap crap too. If people want it. 3M and LLumar make some the most expenive films. 3M you only pay for a name. They don't even make their own film, just put their name on it. LLumar you pay for a product. Pretty much every other film out there is any where from 20% 70% and, "90% less than LLumar if using swap shop grade film." Making the installer more $$$.

Shops that use cheaper crap film tell you it's just as good or better, it might even save you a few dollars. The only reason why any shop will ever use anything but LLumar is because they are saving big money. 10,000 dollar film bill goes to 3,000 -4,000 easy. If a shop is selling or trying to push 3M. It is only because of the name. Nothing else. 3M is a good mid grade film with the huge 3M name on it. Nothing more!


I can also on frame less doors make it look like factory tint. With NO MIRO EDGE AT ALL!. I roll the film over the edge of the window and heat it. I will do this for the same price I give you. Shops that know how to do this charge an extra $20 per window. 99% of tinters out there don't even know how to do this! Call ME!

LLumar came out with a new product. Called Air Blue 80. It is a thick film with some new patented technology. It is pretty much clear. It block's the same UV and rejects the same heat, as LLumar ATR 15.

I am putting a LOT of these on front winshelds for people. That don't want to get a ticket for have the front tinted but want to block heat. Cops can't see it. I did a few other cars where people didn't want the aesthetic look of tint. Let me know!

I also have tint examination forms. If you know a docter. Can't ever get a tint ticket with that ever again.
