Depending on the place it will take an hour or two, and most places around here are first come first serve, so if your there first..... id approximate 2 hours. You can sit there and wait, sometimes you have some pretty hot girls that sit there and wait also... haha

The place I went to had a hot girl putting the tint on the car! She did a killer job!! Needless to say, I waited until she was done.
