3m?

Good afternoon Mike Sherkness here. I was looking into 3Ms new FX tint, and I was wondering if you do it?

no, we use exclusively LLumar...the LLumar product is a much better window film, 3m is very good, but not as good as LLumar. Our ATR series is the only film proven to live up to its lifetime color change warranty. Our prices are very competitive with lifetime warranties that go with you in case you move.

What makes it better than 3m exactly? 3m says that this tint is scratch proof, and it has a sheet of metal in it to keep the car about 20 degrees cooler in the summer. Does LLumar claim to, or have the same product? I just looking for the best tint.

LLumar's ATR line is a highly metalic film. It's regarded as the top film on the market today, and has been for a number of years. 3M's film is known basically for its popular adhesive that's used in many products, but doesn't even fall in the top 3 window films used right now. If you do some research, you'll find that LLumar has the best films out. Let me know if you have any more questions.
Thanks,
Ryan

BTW...I'll look into the 3M product you're speaking of...since it is "new", and I'll forward you any info I find.

here is 3m's website...nowhere does it mention scratch proof, because no tint an claim that...click the brochure, it is scratch resistant, which means it doesnt scratch as easily...LLumar has that coating also...

Guys, I have nothing against Llumar tint. I have an EVO X, and I don't want the wipers on the inside of the window to scratch the tint. So I'm just trying to find the best solution. I see that you have tinted a couple of new EVO's. Have you had good results?

there is a bulletin on evos from the factory about the mouldings actually scratching the glass itself, and that it could scratch tint...we have done some with no scratches, some did...we do some things to help prevent it from happening though.
