Tampa Bay, Orlando, Sarasota Window Tinting Was Not Created Equally; Why It Matters?

Leave a reply

We hear what competitors are saying to our clients.  

There is a fascinating mixture of fiction sprinkled with fact.

A combination of hyperbole and total nonsense all offered up with a facade of seriousness.

Let’s try to separate fact from fiction.
 
 
All films are the same, so you should choose the lowest price?


Obviously this is an untrue statement and typically offered up by a hack window tint person who is buying the cheapest tint available.

It’s in their interest for you to suspend disbelief and accept that false premise.

Does that cheap steak at some hamburger grill taste the same as Ruth Chris?

 If your answer is yes than go ahead and buy some no name tint for your home or car!

Advanced Film Solutions recommends the very best quality window films.

3M Prestige, Eastman Chemical’s VISTA and  Huper Optik are NFRC certified and are supported by documented performance characteristics.

Gated communities limit or restrict the use of reflective metallic window films.

For these homes we propose our 3M Prestige Multilayered optical film or Huper Optik Ceramic Non-Metallic Window Film.

How do you want your windows to look from the inside and the outside?

Obviously there are aesthetic differences between the lower quality films and the top of line 3M, VISTA or Huper Optik.

OK we understand that, but are your films that much better? Now can you match their pricing??

We carry the spectacular 3M Prestige and 3M Ultra solar security window film as well as Eastma’s Vista and LLumar films and we will sharpen our pencils on a case by case basis.

 If you are looking for a highly efficient film and have no problems with reflectivity from an interior view, than the LLumar is a terrific solution. 

VISTA is manufactured by the same company  and was designed specifically with lower interior reflectivity.

VISTA Films are dual pane (IG) safe.  The lifetime warranty is transferable and quite frankly the VISTA Dealer has to meet a much higher level of dealer requirements than a LLumar dealer.

VISTA and LLumar are superior window films as are the ceramic Huper Optik  window film.

That’s value difference and why Advanced Film Solutions has earned our customer’s trust!

2025, Where To Buy Security Solar Window Film, Tampa Bay, Orlando, Sarasota

Leave a reply

Many Florida homeowners who are investigating solar control UV filtering and glare blocking window films also consider thicker safety security versions for home protection.

Getting more bang for the buck for versions that hold glass in place against forced entry or impact while performing the exact same solar benefits can only add to the rationale for investing in window film.

Advanced Film Solutions appreciates this logic and we offer more solar security versions of window film than any other company in Florida.

At a minimum our coatings are 8 ML thick. This is the standard required for meeting various independent tests that quantify impact performance. 8 ML films meet ASTM 1996, ASTM1886 B and GSA Level 3 for blast mitigation.

Several versions of our Vista and LLumar security films also meet Factory Mutual standards for wind blown debris on commercial window systems.

We now offer 3M Scotchshield, 3M Ultra clear films and the Prestige Ultra Series!

No matter the film selected it is recommended that sliders and larger window openings receive an application of Dow 995 structural silicone attachment system, or 3M IPA along the perimeter of the frame. This additional anchoring is the best method for improving the performance of the window system against impact.

Advanced Film Solutions represents Eastman Chemical whose portfolio includes LLumar, Vista, Huper Optik and SunTek solar security Film.

We also represent Madico and Sunscape (the films on the US Capitol Building) as well as the Saint-Gobain Armorcoat films.

And as mentioned above we now offer 3M Scotchshield, 3M Ultra and 3M Prestige Ultra solar safety film.

Advanced Film Solutions also represents the Avery-Dennison Films.

The wide variety of selections gives consumers the best alternatives to match their aesthetic requirements.
