Has anyone used a local tint shop which does good work on the SF peninsula?

One friend suggested a small shop on Marsh Road between 101 and Middlefield.

Any other suggestions, tint materials/mfgs to avoid?

Thanks,
Chris

 

My mother-in-law was staying with us for a few weeks,
(don't worry, she's gone now ). She had good luck with
"All That Hair" in Orinda. She'd go once a week to keep those
grey roots from showing under the pink.
Glad to help, but isn't this a bit OT?

I had my windows tinted at the Auto Mall Tint Factory in Fremont. It's near the Fremont Automall. I had all the windows done in Huper Optik 50% Ceramic Tint. It contains no metals that can sometimes interfere with Radar and cell reception. Although I never had an issue with my old tint on my old car...

 

I went with Mr. Tint on Steven's Creak Blvd.

 

Is that the one in the Marlin carwash?

 

I think its on the corner of that one yes

 

Thank you Mr. Shark

 

No probs. The guy that owns the place did a good job on it. I can show you at the meet. I went pretty dark all the way around. He owns a 993 TT (silver) but sometimes I do worry about some of the kids that do the work there. I've been back a few times with friends cars and they're a bit ghetto.. even for me Kids today...

 

the metals "interfere with Radar and cell reception" is a marketing thing....the whole car is made up of metals

 

I know this is an old post, but I'd like to ask the same question and see if there are any other/new local places recommended for quality tint work.

 

Go with Mr. Tint, they do a great job. Even if their operation does seem a little ghetto. I had my first car done there and recommended all friends to them. Price for 2 door should be around $300, or less, depending on what kind of material.

Don’t take it to some random place, I took my second car to a place where Mr. Tint used to be, the new place was ran by one guy, anyway, when I went to pick up the car, there was a scratch on the trunk, and there really isn’t anything I could do about it, 2 days out of the dealership and I got a scratch, it sucked. But the car did look better with tint.

Front is illegal, but I wanted the look. Cops don’t really care all that much.

 

Is that Polarized and UV rated?

I heard your cell phone can interfere with the radar. Which one are you gonna turn off?

 

Sharky, he does not have that silver 993TT anymore.

Why do I know??? Because I've been driving around in it for the last year

It's mine. My preciousssssss. LOL.

 

Watch out, Jauder. Have you looked at your reflection lately?

 

The sad thing is at the rate I am loosing my hair I'll probably be like that soon.
