Tint and Dent removal at Detail Authority

Recommended Posts

One more question Ali for Wardel (no rush).

 

I got tint from him at the "Beat the Rays" tint party organized by Corey held at GarageMahal. I'd like to get the windshield stripe but I don't need new tint. Would I have to pay the $25 or $50 rate?

 

Another tint question... what is the charge for tint removal (with retint)?

 

I sent to Randy, he sends to Wardel, who replies to Randy who replies to me.

 

Will let you guys know when I hear back

$50, because he would need to re clean, prep the windshield, and get things set up again.

Trying to plan out for this one...What are the shades/percent of tint available for this? My wife would like to match the front driver and passenger windows on her CX-9 (two windows). For my MINI, guess i'm just looking to go dark...not sure of tint % though.

Sent an email to Randy. I would assume the standard VA legal shades are available. Are you looking for something different? Do you want a quote on the CX-9?

 

I just copied and pasted your post to an email to Randy

Typically 50, 35, 20% tint. To do the front windows as dark as the back, is illegal in Virginia. We can still do it however I just need you to be aware that it is illegal.

 

And for Virginia either the two side windows are only allowed to be 50% to be state legal. 50% is not very much color or shaving at all. Generally down to 35% is acceptable, does not create any issues. Once you get to 20% and below you are asking for trouble.

 

We can do a very good job of matching existing tint. It may not be a 100% exact match, but I'll be fairly close and most people would never know the difference.

Luckily vehicles are registered in MD. :) From what I've seen on the driving down the road around here, I could Wesley Snipes shade 6 and be just fine.

I edited my first post with a tentative schedule.

 

As additional people sign up we'll edit it. If you want to be moved let me know. I tried to honor what is in the RSVP or what people told me

I'm interested only in that I'd like to get my front windows re-tinted to the same % as the rear. The only thing is that I'm pretty sure it would be illegal on the front. Might be worth coming out anyway just to chat about it.

I have another question... my Mustang has a small sunroof. Can that be tinted too? I think I'd want to go with a very dark tint on that one - the darkest ceramic tint they can do (e.g. 5% limo tint).

I need to give Randy more details on the front jobs. The dent removals are fine

 

Please update your RSVP with the model of car and what's being tintedtinted. I know it's probably all in the thread but this will make it easier to give Randy the correct info

I adjusted all tint tines in accordance with instruction from Randy about times needed. I padded them just a bit too. Haemish should be very happy now

What's the earliest available for a windshield strip?

 

I'm checking with Randy for timing. I allowed 1 hour for the tints which are usually 45 minutes so I might be able to move a few around and pop you in around 9:30ish

I put you in for the morning, I literally just readjusted all the times and forgot them. It's all in the top post

 

These times are all estimates as he could run early or late. You never know what's going to happen
