The Window Film Or Tint Process

Having your windows tinted or film applied to them is a relatively simple process that will vary depending on which film or tint you choose. Regardless of what you are looking for with a window film or ultimately end up with, your process will start with a free consultation with one of San Diego’s Window Tinting experts. We have dedicated project managers for each job who will take the time to consult with you on your project to determine your needs and pricing options.

During your free consultation, our window film expert will

  • Listen carefully to your problems and ask questions to be sure they fully understand your property’s unique set of problems
  • Use their expertise and knowledge to sort through the hundreds of window film options and develop the best solution to meet your needs. Often, this involves testing the existing glass for heat/ light penetration levels, UV, etc.
  • Fully explain why they chose the particular film selected

Once you have selected the best film, your project manager will schedule a day and time to start and end your job. The good news is that most window tint, film, and shield jobs will be done in a day if not hours. Some jobs could take longer if the scope of your project is vast and you need high-end security framing or extensive exterior window refinishing. If this is the case, your project manager will let you know how much additional time you should plan for.

The process for essential tinting or films is pretty simple, though. First, we carefully clean and prepare your glass. Next, we apply the film and any adhesives and trim to size. Finally, we use a special squeegee to ensure the movie sits perfectly flush with your windows and no air bubbles are trapped.
