Want to see pictures just ask and Ill take them for you guys.

Well, I dont think its going to rain pretty hard again. But what if I wash my car with a pressure washer? That will have the same effect as a hard rain right. Ill be in LA this weekend. So Ill do it next week. I will also take pictures too. The 50 fronts and 20 rears looks normal. You wont get harrass for having the fronts as dark as the rears. Its light enough so they can see the driver.

Does Andy's Window Tinting have a waiting room of some sort? Or did you wait in the garage? Did he have a tv or magazines so you could keep yourself preoccupied while he works? I live near Andy's tint shop, so I might go.

No Tv No Mag but he had interesting posters on the wall with the U.S tint laws for every state. Go he is great, give him a call first so he can make an appointment with you.![Thumbs Up](https://acurazine.com/forums/images/smilies/thumbsup.gif)

Yeah, it is a lifetime guarantee as long as the problem is tint related. Such as a defect or a rip, peel, fade. Anything that would be his fault or the tints is under the guarantee. I tried tinting a truck I had before and it sucked, so hard without the right tools. I noticed you said a mile away and that must mean you live in Clifton, is that right? I also notice you are 23 years old and that is the same age as me. There is a good chance we know each other. Did you go to Clifton High or live in Clifton?

First off, I do not drive an Acura.
I have my scheduled weekend trip from PA to NJ and decided to search for tint shops within the area. I chanced upon this forum. I am truly very grateful that I found it. Andy's Window Tint is 7 miles away from me. I had my 2006 Galant tinted with 20% all over yesterday. The job was awesome, very professional. Paid $180 + 7% NJ tax using visa.
I just want to express my outmost gratitude for posting the info. Thank you.

Thanks.
Those are pinstripes I bought from Advance Auto Parts. Pepboys, Autozone and the likes also carry them. I installed them myself coz' it cost $$$ to have someone do it.

Top of the Line popped out, too, when I searched. I'm at my relatives in Lodi when I visit NJ.
Relik2004's post somehow convinced me to try Andy. I called up Friday...Saturday my car's done!
One shop here in PA quoted me $275 for the same job.

You can backtrack, peel back and stick again, if you see bubbles because the adhesive does not set very quickly. Just be careful of not stretching it.

Relik2004 has done a really good job giving the info on the 1st page of this thread.
I waited slightly less than 2 hours in his backyard which has a little nice shade... perfect for zzzzz...ing.

I guess he'll have to leave the dot matrix out on mine. Should I clean my windows?. But I assume he cleans them too. All this pollen is causing havoc. I'm worried there is going to be specks of dust in the tint.
#71
I know he's gotta clean it thoroughly, however, I went to a car wash just right before I went to his place.
I remember wiping out all those pollen one day and now I'm more than a week suffering of allergy symptoms.

I am loving my Tint, my eyes don't hurt anymore from the light at night and it looks so good. I am very happy I got it done finally. I love how it is extremely dark at night but you can still see through a little during the day.

I drove up and down RT 46 looking for a good tint shop because I did want to get the best for the money and we all know how tinters usually just slap it on and call it a day.
I have had 3 cars tinted and this guy I found on Sunday was the best. I will forever go to him with every car in the future.
Well, I gave up looking at the various shops and started driving home. I remembered this place I saw while looking for tint shops in NJ and it was called Andy’s Window tinting. I drove by the address, which happens to be his house, and saw him outside with his daughter... Who just coincidentally bought a 2007 TSX two days ago... so I got out and asked him if he could tint my car. He said sure and the price was 180 for cash and 220 for card. When I looked into his garage I noticed it was a tint shop! Andy had a tint shop set up in his 2 car garage and he also took credit cards! I was like this is amazing so I decided to give it a try and said go for it, remember this was Sunday.... Nice guy. He let me watch the whole time and he said it would be 2 hours (I thought this was amazing because all of the other places said 3 to 4 and that I couldnt watch. He did it in exactly 2 hours on the dot). He had all the right tools and man he was fast. He even used filtered water with the spray solution for the tints. I checked every window when he was done and ALL the bubbles were out, it looked as though the tints were sprayed on! I was very impressed so this is the reason why I am writing this long thread because I can't stress it enough that this man knows his shit. I highly recommend him and he has done over 30 TSXs, templates and all. It has been 4 days and The tints look great and are cut perfectly. Here are some pics of the job. It is not very detailed but I can assure you that there are amazingly no flaws in the tint job. He has a website and is located in Clifton NJ right by the high school. You can get his address from his site. Oh yeah, he does commercial and residential tinting also. Johnson’s tints (Only the Best). Alright... I can go on all day about this guy and how happy I am with my tints but I will stop now. If you are in the NJ, NY area and are looking for a great tint job this is your man to see. I have heard horror stories from people but this guy is definitely worry free. Later all.
