Personalize

Cut on a plotter, not on your car

Many shops lay film on the glass and trim it with a razor right on the car. One slip scores paint, nicks a seal or cuts a defroster line. Here the pattern for your exact make, model and year is pulled from a library and cut on a clean table before it goes near the vehicle.

You choose the shade with real film samples held against your glass, and the studio helps you stay within Ontario rules.

What is included

  • Shade and film consultation with real samples
  • Glass preparation and old-film removal where needed
  • Computer-cut pattern, no blade on the car
  • Heat-shaped, bubble-free install in a dust-controlled bay
  • Final inspection of every window
  • Lifetime warranty against colour fading and peeling (as stated on the current site)

How long

Most tint jobs are done the same day. The studio confirms timing when you book.

Afterwards

Keep the windows up for the first few days while the film settles and follow the aftercare sheet you get at handover.

Good to know

Ontario prohibits aftermarket film on the windshield of vehicles made in 2017 or later, apart from a strip above the AS-1 line. Front door shades are kept light. The studio checks your vehicle before any windshield film.

Questions

Window Tinting
answered

Still unsure? Call +1 647 643 0187 or see all FAQs.

Which tint shades are legal in Ontario?
Rear glass has no VLT limit. The front doors must give a clear view of the driver from outside, so only light shades go there (70% is recommended). Windshield rules depend on the model year. Rules are enforced at the roadside and can change.
What does VLT mean?
Visible light transmission: the percentage of light the film lets through. Lower numbers mean darker glass.
Do all three films block UV?
Yes. All three ceramic films listed on the current site block 99% of UV rays. Moving up adds heat rejection, clarity and a global manufacturer behind the film.
