Why it matters

Old film does more harm than good

Once tint starts to fail, it only gets worse. Bubbling spreads, purple film keeps fading, and peeling edges collect dirt and moisture. A clean removal and re-tint fixes it for good.

Clears up your view

Bubbles, haze, and discoloration distort your view out the window and can even affect visibility at night.

Stops it from getting worse

Failing adhesive keeps lifting at the edges. Removing it now avoids a bigger mess and harder removal later.

Restores a clean look

Purple or faded tint stands out. Fresh film gives every window a matching, factory-clean appearance.

Upgrades your protection

Re-tinting is a chance to step up to ceramic film for better heat rejection and UV protection than your old tint.

FAQ

Tint removal questions, answered

Why does old window tint turn purple or bubble?

Older dyed films break down with age and sun exposure. The dye can fade to a purple or brownish tint, and the adhesive can dry out and lose its grip, causing bubbles and peeling edges.

Can you remove old tint without damaging the glass or defroster lines?

Yes. We use techniques suited to your vehicle's rear defroster lines and tint removal, so the film and adhesive come off clean without lifting the defroster grid.

How do I know if my tint needs to be removed?

Common signs are bubbling or bumpy patches, a purple or faded color instead of neutral gray or black, peeling at the edges or corners, and visible haze or cloudiness that was not there when the film was new.

Can I get new tint installed the same day the old film comes off?

In most cases, yes. Removal and re-tint are typically done in the same visit. We will confirm the timeline for your vehicle when you book.
