Tampa Bay Trusted, Expert Home, Commercial Window Tinting Advanced Film Solutions

Leave a reply

The window film business in Tampa has been our obsession since the 1990’s. 

Back then I was the 3M sales rep for window film and later National Sales Manager of 3M Window Film.  In 2007 when I “retired” from 3M my goal was to launch a new concept window film installation company serving the entire Tampa Bay area.

The solutions we would offer were in every category superior in performance, appearance and investment cost to the 3M films.

We thought that we knew the obstacles that would face us as we began.  After all I had paid attention throughout the previous years and having had first hand experience with some of the most successful dealers in the USA.

My goal was to offer superior value with superior products .
 

18 years later and Advanced Film Solutions has developed into one of the largest VISTA and Huper Optik Window Film installation companies in the USA.

We added 3M Prestige and 3M Ultra window film into our portfolio in May of 2025.

We have earned the Super Service award from Angie’s List for 10 straight years and the Best Of Home Advisor Award and HOUZZ.

2020 Eastman LLumar Dealer of the Year for the USA

Locally our car tinting business has grown in leaps and bounds based upon the support and performance of our FormulaOne and LLumar.

The challenge throughout these last 18 years is to continue to offer solutions that meet and exceed our clients requirements.

Our strategy has been to offer the best solutions and warranty with films that are superior in every respect.

Solutions that provide maximum return on your investment by insulating your windows in the winter as well as the summer!

 
The challenge as always is to remain relevant.
 
 
To meet our clients requirements and to offer the best films and the very best brands.
 
 
 

We never assume a sale but rather take the time to explain the differences between the films we offer.

We win on the glass!

Times are tough enough without having to pay high electric costs throughout the year which the direct result of having inefficient windows in your home or business.

 

Fortunately today’s window film technology improvements have resulted in a complete suite of coatings that transform your windows into energy smart systems.

These coatings act as a heat mirror providing substantially (15-35%)  lower monthly cooling and heating costs.

Many of these coatings are available in shatter resistant clear and solar versions that harden your window openings.  These coatings delay, deny and deter burglars while simultaneously factoring out harmful UV rays and glare.

Advanced Film Solutions is Florida’s leading installation company of the highest rated solar and solar security films manufactured by 3M or Eastman Chemical. 

3M Prestige and 3M Prestige Ultra film stops heat by focusing on the invisible IR wavelengths of the solar spectrum. Combined with a modest light filtering we achieve heat rejection without altering the appearance of your windows and sliders. This meets all HOA rules and deed restrictions and is ideal for condos and gated communities.

Eastman innovation and leading edge ingenuity created Vista Solar and solar security films, Huper Optik ceramic films and the durable, practical LLumar series.

Our consultants analyze your specific requirements to match the best solution for your need.  No other company has as many choices in brands, styles, light transmissions, reflective and non-reflective or security films.

July Heat, Dog Days Of Summer: Florida’s Coolest Window Tinting

Leave a reply

It’s HOT.


Air so thick you could cut a knife through it.

So you would naturally think that this would be our top month for selling window film?

The excuses:


Back To School:  The back to school theory has it that everyone is starting to concentrate on kids heading back to school and have no thoughts about their ridiculous electric bills or that their home feels like a sauna.

This would be a wonderful excuse except for the fact that the Tampa-St. Pete area is “God’s Waiting Room.“

senior discount
Many of our customers have kids older than Trump and I assure you that they aren’t heading off on that Yellow Bus.

 
Vacation Time: This is the theory that everyone is on vacation.


Seriously?

Check out the traffic on I 275 around 5:00 PM and tell me that all my neighbors are lying on a beach somewhere (or if you are really keeping score; we should all be in Alaska trying to get away from the beaches!)

Nobody has any money left!
 
BUT
 
 
Now I like this excuse but I know that its not completely true.


Of course our open quotes have generated some very creative excuses:

  • Client is getting sued and is worried they won’t have any money left.
  • Client has termites and has to spend money on tenting their home.
  • Clients Mom is very sick (substitute with any other family member)
  • Client needs root canal. (OUCH!)
  • Clients home is in a sink hole.
  • Client getting a divorce.
  • Client broke hip.
  • Client’s pet died.
  • Client considering spending ten times more for new windows.

And that is just this week’s excuses
