Q for those who have had any car tinted for a couple years? I just got my truck tinted and next week my Firebird and this summer my Camaro. Question is the guy used Madico brand tint and I cant seem to find any yea or naw's on that brand of tint. Anyone had thier cars tinted with this brand? If so how would you rate it after a few years? Yea more of an aftermarket product review question but I think A/D is more appropriate. Thanks!

Madico tint (I believe) is a metalized film tint which over the years is very durable & holds it's original color regardless. The famouse 'purple' tint is usually a cheap dyed tint (like the crap at pep boys, etc..) which usually holds its original color, if your lucky, for up 6 months. Madico's website is here if you'd like more info on them. ------------------[*]my Formula Homepage [*]Collision P/Ns & Diagrams "Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk.

That stuff is GREAT! it never seems to fade...ive got it on my bird for the two side windows and some yuppie walmart brand for the rear window...all of the tints over a year old...my back windows purple and my side windows are still so dark i have to roll them down at night to see!http://www.dreamwater.org/auto/snuffit/formula1.jpg that will have to be copy and pasted...WARNING its a LARGE PICTURE but it shows my tint...thats over a year old in the picture...and before anyone blasts those rims...its now running stock deep dish turbo 16inches...i had them on cause their tires were cheap and i couldnt afford new 16inch rubber... ------------------ Snuffit R.I.P. 88trans am GTA in memory of Katy 89 Firebird Formula 383tpi t56 |
Thanks for the replies! https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/smile.gif I went to the website before but didn't find anything about the materials in the construction of the tint but it should be the good stuff. There's just so many purple tinted cars running around town I just wanted to be secured in the fact that I wont be adding 3 to the count https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/wink.gif. Snuffit, I wouldn't knock your former rims, In fact I have the same ones 14x8F and 15x10R setup for my track tires. https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/biggrin.gif Thanks again! SSC https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/smile.gif Edit: BTW what % is that on the windows of your car? Im having all mine done in 20% and your looks a heck of a lot darker than that. ------------------ 85 Camaro Z28, Cowl induction hood, Black-355/TB400,3:42 posi, Tons of goodies but if you ask, "Its stock https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/wink.gif" 82 Firebird, White, red in six months-355/TB350,3:42 Powertrax posi.

thats 5%...before anyone asks yep its illigal...but none of the cops around here really care to much...i had one guy question it one day...but he just let it slide cause i knew his kid (found that out when talking to him)...it really sucks at night cause you can only really see lights and nothing else very well ------------------ Snuffit R.I.P. 88trans am GTA in memory of Katy 89 Firebird Formula 383tpi t56 |
