| Has any of you used Johnson Window Films brand tint?
A tint shop was recommended to me: logan square car wash on Milwaukee Ave.
I've never had tint on the front windows and I'm thinking of going 50% or 35% Do tint places use single sheet for entire window or make a square and then fill in the edges with smaller pieces?
I also want to tint the sunroof and keep the it open in vent mode during the day.

| That car wash by Milwaukee and Sacramento, under the train tracks?? Single sheet on all door windows, some guys with not much exp will do 2 pieces on the rear window. They seam it on the defrost line so you dont see the seam. An exp installer can do back windows in 1 piece. Never heard of that tint??? | |

| Used to get my car washed there years ago; didn't know they did windows. Price seems a bit too good to me. Johnson Window film:

| Price really isnt that bad. My buddy will tint my friends cars for $125.00 complete, usually about $175.00 for regular customers. He bases his price of what he pays for a roll of tint, which is about $100. He can do about 5-6 cars per roll. | |

| Does anyone know where I can get all 4 windows (car doors only) done for a real good price? I currently have the back two plus the back window done. But the back doors need to get redone, I have no problem removing the film myself. | |

| Shawn,
Will you be able to find out how much your guy will charge to tint my doors? I tried to pm you but don't have enough posts to do so. If you don't mind that is to ask your friend.
Thanks, Jorge | |

| Thanks, for the quick response, but I was able to find it a whole lot less. I was quoted that much to do the whole car. Thanks again | |

| 4 doors and rear windshield... sorry, i should have been more clear. what year is your car? if you have a 2011 or newer, you can't use the "traditional" tint. You need a different tint that reflects heat as opposed to absorbing it. | |

| I have a 2006, and just need my doors done. The back two are done already but they have nicks and rips in them. I will remove them myself before taking it somewhere. The rear windshield is fine. That was the way I bought the car. | |
