Default Quality Tint

My tint is quickly bubbling and falling off of the Fairlane. I want to replace it.

What brands of tint are of good quality? We used to have Ming Tint on another car which aged quite well, but if there is better out there, I'm happy to use it.

I've had my last 3 cars done at Solartint and never had a problem with any of them.I always use the tints that come with lifetime warranty, then you can't go wrong.One of the best tints was Diamond tint but I'm not sure if it is still available.

Had mine done at United Windscreens Dave, pretty good price and lifetime warranty.

I also don't use any window cleaning products on mine at all, metho and water is all it needs to keep them clean.

most places now offer a lifetime warranty for bubble and/or purple-ing...

I have used a business called "Action Window Tinting." This guy takes his time on the job, and uses high quality tints as standard, and he is well priced, particulary if you mention my name! If you want, PM me for his details. And he is based at Lonsdale.
