Window Tinting Leadership, Tampa Bay, Orlando & Sarasota

Leave a reply

I‘m as cynical as the next guy when it comes to this window film business.

I’ve been on both sides of the channel.  In my past life as a 3M Sales Rep, Account Exec and National Sales Manager and most recently (16 years) as owner of my own company Advanced Film Solutions.

I am not impressed easily!
 

Mediocrity has become the new normal.
 
East
 

No one paid me to say this but Eastman LLumar SelectPro Films has been the world leader in window film for decades, but recently their management team has grabbed the lapels of this business and shaken it for whatever it’s worth!

Bold moves in acquisitions.

Innovative new to the world solutions.
 

Are they as cheap as some of their copy cat imitators? 
No.
 
 
Candidly who would seriously want them to be?
 

Their solutions are outstanding. Incomparable clarity, a depth of choices and iterations for every critical thinking consumer.

“LEADERSHIP IS ACTION NOT POSITION”


Their management team is dedicated and forthright and their customer service has been extraordinary.

 

After nearly 43,000 homes and thousands of cars using Llumar and FormulaOne I am more convinced than ever that the winning edge is the powerful Eastman team behind us.

Tampa St. Petersburg Window Film Designed For Winter Comfort

Leave a reply

Now that the first day of winter is here in Tampa, Orlando and Sarasota you might think there would be a decrease in window film interest.

Fortunately (for window film people) the lower sun angle means that rooms are getting intense glare and bright light that makes watching TV or working on your laptop or tablet nearly impossible!

Advanced Film Solutions has the solution by installing our solar control window film.

These thin transparent coatings act like sunglasses for your windows. factoring out as much as 95% of the glare and light.

The homeowner determines just how much light will get filtered since the various alternatives are incrementally lighter or darker depending upon the film selected.

The film installation not only lowers glare but they simultaneously remove 99.9% of the UV wavelength that contributes to faded furnishings and interior damage on leather, wood and fabrics.

Many clients also consider our  solutions that reflect interior heat back into the living space. These Low E coatings act like a heat mirror saving winter electric costs.

Window film also performs well in the summer by maintaining interior room temperatures.

The best move?

Safety and security experts recommend the application of thicker (8ML+) shatter resistant window film for perimeter protection on retail stores, offices, government and financial buildings and most recently school facilities.

These films provide protection from forced entry, smash and grab crime, vandalism and blast events.

You might be surprised to discover that you can protect your home, business, religious center or non-profit with the exact same films that protect the US Capitol (Armorcoat) US Embassies (Madico) and high profile landmark buildings across the nation (LLumar.)

We also represent the 3M Prestige Ultra and 3M clear and Night Vision Ultra series. The Prestige film is ideal for deed restricted, gated communities since they are non-reflective.

These films meet the GSA Level 3A and DoD requirements and the following independent testing criteria:

For example the world leading LLumar & Vista dual reflective 28/38 (Eastman Chemical) 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
  • General Services Administration (GSA) and United Facilities Criteria (UFC)
  • ASTM Large Missile Level C and Small Missile requirements
  • Underwriters Laboratory UL972 Forced Entry requirements

Glass Shatter Solar Protective Window Film For Safer Homes

Leave a reply

When it comes down to safety and security the thicker the window film the better.

That’s why Advanced Film Solutions recommends the 8 ML thick clear and solar safety security window films manufactured by global window film leaders 3M, Eastman Chemical, Armorcoat, Madico, Hanita, Johnson and Suntek.

The 8 ML thickness has become the industry standard because these films meet a superior level of security when tested to GSA, DoD and ASTM standards.

Thinner films like 4, 5 and most 6 ML films do not meet this security level.  Be certain to confirm that a competitors film is not thinner than 8 ML.

Solar security films are designed to withstand impact and provide energy solar savings by filtering out heat gain while simultaneously doing their security function.

Window film can be attached to metal frames like storefront windows or sliders by using a wet sealant Dow 995 system.

These attachment systems have provided that additional measure of protection to keep glass lites in the frame.

Advanced Film Solutions team of installers is fully equipped and trained in all aspects of security glazing installations.

Our residential warranty is lifetime and most commercial warranties are 10, 12 or 15 years.
