FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you assist with utility incentive paperwork for commercial tint?

Definitely—our team supplies product specifications, energy calculations, and forms required by Xcel Energy and other rebate programs.

Do you handle large, multi‑story commercial tint projects?

We’re equipped with lift access, safety training, and a multi‑man crew to tackle buildings from storefronts to high‑rises across Minnesota.

Can safety or security film also reduce solar heat and glare in offices?

Yes—dual‑performance films combine break‑strengthening layers with solar control to protect people while boosting comfort and energy savings.

Will window tint void my manufacturer’s window warranty?

Our major‑brand films carry warranty coverage that mirrors or supplements most window manufacturer warranties, so your coverage stays intact.

Is the film installed on the interior or exterior side of home windows?

Most films are applied to the interior glass surface for longevity, but we also offer exterior‑grade films for hard‑to‑reach panes.

Does residential window film qualify for energy‑efficiency tax credits or rebates?

Many low‑E and spectrally selective films meet ENERGY STAR® requirements. We’ll provide specs and paperwork for local rebate programs.

Will PPF hide existing scratches or paint imperfections?

PPF is crystal‑clear and will not conceal defects; we recommend paint correction first so the finish looks flawless under the film.

Can you remove old or bubbling tint before installing new film?

Absolutely—we safely strip failed film and adhesive, prepping the glass for a fresh, flawless ceramic or carbon install.

Can Paint Protection Film be applied to just high‑impact areas or my entire vehicle?

Yes—packages range from partial front (hood, fenders, bumper, mirrors) to full‑body wraps. We’ll tailor coverage to your budget and driving habits.

How long does a typical automotive window tint installation take?

Most sedans are finished in 1.5–2 hours; SUVs and full windshields add extra time. You’re welcome to relax in our lounge during the install.

How should I wash my car after PPF is installed?

Wait seven days before the first wash, then use pH‑neutral soap, soft wash mitts, and avoid automatic brushes. Touch‑free or hand washing is ideal.

What’s the difference between dyed, carbon, and ceramic tints?

Dyed films mainly add shade, carbon adds heat rejection without signal interference, and ceramic blocks the most heat and UV with superior clarity.

Can tint be installed outside of regular business hours to avoid disrupting staff?

Definitely—we offer evening and weekend installs to keep your operations running smoothly.

Can you match the look of existing tinted glass on our building?

We carry a wide range of shades and reflective levels and can custom‑match most existing glazing.

Does commercial window tint block UV rays that fade furnishings?

Yes—our commercial films reject 99+ % of harmful UV, protecting interiors and occupants.

How do I clean windows after residential tint has been installed?

Wait 30 days, then use ammonia‑free cleaner and a soft microfiber cloth—no abrasives needed.

Will window tint interfere with my car’s electronics or defroster lines?

Our non‑metalized ceramic and carbon films are signal‑safe and won’t damage rear defrosters.

Will residential tint make my house too dark inside?

Not at all—modern films block heat and UV while letting in plenty of natural daylight.

How long should I wait before rolling down my windows after tinting?

Please keep windows up for at least 3–5 days to let the adhesive fully cure.

How much energy can residential window tint save on heating and cooling?

Spectrally selective films can cut solar heat gain by up to 30 %, often lowering summer AC costs 10–15 %.

What tint shades do you offer and are they legal in Minnesota?

We stock 5 %–70 % VLT films. Minnesota law allows 50 % on front side windows for sedans; we guide you on compliant choices.

What are your business hours?

We’re open Monday–Friday 9:00 AM–7:00 PM, Saturday 9:00 AM–4:00 PM, and closed on Sunday.

Does Paint Protection Film affect the color or gloss of my car?

No—our film is optically clear and will not yellow or dull your paint; it actually enhances gloss.

Are your technicians certified or trained?

Yes—our installers are factory‑trained and certified by leading film manufacturers and complete annual refresher courses.

How long does Paint Protection Film last?

Premium self‑healing PPF typically protects for 7–10 years in Minnesota’s climate with proper care.

Can the film be removed without damaging my paint?

Absolutely—the film is designed to release cleanly with heat, leaving OEM paint intact.

How long have you been in business?
