How does a discerning consumer chooserepparttar 102794 tint shop that does quality work? What isrepparttar 102795 difference between a "Dr. Tint" and a "Quality Window Tinting"?

We at TintCenter.com Window Tinting Guides suggest that you do a little research. First, compile a list of 5 potential tint shops that are likely to do good work. Ask your friends an co-workers who have tinted their cars which tint shops they chose, look inrepparttar 102796 Yellow Pages and mark downrepparttar 102797 tint shops with large professional advertisements, or come to TintCenter.com and get price quotes from a local tint shops.

Once you have this list in-hand, its time to interview each dealer:

  1. How long have you been in business at this location? Do you have other shops inrepparttar 102798 area?

    Good tint shops prosper despite local competition by offering good service at reasonable prices.

This shows a stable business that will be there years downrepparttar 102800 road if somehowrepparttar 102801 tint goes bad.

  2. What types of films do you carry? What warranty do you offer on your work?

    Quality tint shops carry complete lines of window film from one or multiple window filmmanufacturers. They should carry dyed, hybrid, and metallic window films in a variety of colors and darknesses. Beware of tint shops that only carry one or two lines of film, and sells them aggressively. They may have acquired this film on sale, and may not be thinking of your unique requirements and concerns.

    The warranty onrepparttar 102806 car tint varies depending onrepparttar 102807 window film you choose.
