Some car tinting types will propose a cheap dyed car tint that will turn purple in two years or less.

Tampa Window Tinting DIY Vs. The Pro’s At Advanced Film Solutions

Leave a reply

You’re ambitious, frugal and handy

 AND. .

Tired of that glare, heat and fading.


You’ve heard of tinting for your car and when you walked past the Home Depot display for window tinting; you couldn’t resist buying a roll, or two of Gila Film.

So far- -so good?
 


Advanced Film Solutions has performed more than 24,000 home installations since we launched our company in early 2007.

Quite a few (too many to mention) were fix up installations.

We were called in to rip off these tints and do it right. . .the second time with Vista, Huper Optik or LLumar Film.

 1240147_642091802490961_538303952_n

We’ve seen our share of installers over the years.

Guys and ladies who actually do this type of work for a living; and there is a wide gap in installation skill sets and ability.

 
  • Bubbles: Too much water, or too little.
  • Gaps: The glass area between the window frame and the film. A novice leaves wide gaps that let sunlight in and look horrible!
  • Straight cuts: We use film handlers to get a factory edge novice DIY tint amateurs do free hand cuts.
  • Lines and creases: When our installers do a project there are no lines or creases. That’s because they have developed the skill over thousands of installations to do outstanding work.
  • The film itself: The film you buy for DIY installations is typically very limited in variety, durability and aesthetics. Of course; you might be a big fan of purple tint??
  • Warranty: We provide a written lifetime warranty and our Vista, LLumar and Huper Optik warranty is one time transferable to the next homeowner. When you do it yourself; there isn’t any warranty.
Had enough?
 
 
 
 

If you care how your home looks; then take those rolls back to Depot and call:

Shatter Security Glass Window Film Protection, Tampa Bay, Orlando

Leave a reply

The window film industry has been restricted from the mere mention of its potential use for wind storm mitigation.

bannersafety2

Given the industry small footprint and the lack of appetite to argue the merits of properly fastened shatter films; we have removed all mention of storms from any advertising.

(Frankly we had done so as far back as 2009-10)

Interestingly commercial buildings (second story and above) typically require that a storm mitigation device meet the ASTM 1886 or ASTM 1996 cycling and small and medium missile impact that our 8 ML films meet.

This includes the stringent Factory Mutual testing approvals that can lower a commercial businesses insurance premiums.

374639_315105961856215_1914254629_n

We take no issue with the states concerns about misleading advertising or their implication that somehow the mere mention of these films is taking advantage of the elderly.

 

Our thicker shatter films manufactured by Eastman Chemical (LLumar- Vista) ,  Madico, Suntek, Armorcoat and Avery-Dennison Hanita meet Department of Defense and GSA Blast load requirements. Various versions meet the UL972 impact testing and all meet ANSI97 requirements for safety glazing.

 LLumar Meets the Most Stringent Standards
 

Suitable for a broad range of applications, LLumar offers safety films meeting numerous certifications and test standards in the United States, Europe and around the world, including:

  • ANSI Z97.1 and CPSC 16 CFR 1201 Cat I and II

CN0FInYUcAAmmWT

General Services Administration (GSA) and United Facilities Criteria (UFC)

 

ASTM Large Missile Level C and Small Missile requirements
 

 

Underwriters Laboratory UL972 Forced Entry requirements
 

 

Factory Mutual FM Approvals 4350 Small Missile

EN356, level P2A

 Shatter glazing films (IWFA) are also being installed on school buildings throughout the nation.

Our team protects all K-12 public schools in Hillsborough County with Eastman’s Vista 28 8 ML window film

security-window-film-1

 

We have scores of shatter films that are available in solar combination versions that are effective against criminal intrusion and certainly accidental breakage and vandalism.

These coatings not only provide the security features but they also eliminate UV and make offices and homes cooler and energy efficient.
