If you are considering buying or leasing a new car, one of the options that will arise is the installation of aftermarket window film for your new car.

Most new car dealers farm out the car tinting and paint protection film applications to a local shop.
 
 
The mark-ups they add to your cost are extraordinary. 
 
 
 
YOU WOULD BE PAYING TWICE THE RATE!
 
 
 
More importantly you have no idea what type of film they are applying to your vehicle or the actual performance you should expect of these films.
 

This includes installing cheap tint on a brand new luxury car like a BMW or Volvo. 

Some of these films interfere with Bluetooth and GPS Signals. Of course no one ever mentions that when they jack up their prices!

Advanced Film Solutions has a better way.

We are FormulaOne Tampa and we offer more choices in performance levels and light transmissions.

Our Pinnacle Ceramic Film is the best heat rejecting ceramic film in the Industry.

Our LLumar friends (we also carry LLumar) have a pared down version of Pinnacle that has less heat rejecting capabilities!

Given the ridiculous mark-ups by the new car dealers you’ll always get a BETTER DEAL by eliminating the middle man (new car dealer!)

Wait times are less than one hour.

The installation of Vista, LLumar, Huper Optik high-performance  window film to the inside of your windows decreases energy use; improves insulation performance; lowers year-round AC loads; and shortens AC equipment run times, while reducing dependence on artificial lighting, and increasing comfort levels.

Window film will also provide nearly 100% UV protection, superior  safety and security, privacy, decoration, and graffiti protection.

Advanced Film Solutions, Tampa’s FormulaOne high performance Automotive Window Film.

Why?

  • We won’t keep your car all day.

Our Precision Cut software and plotters take the guessing game out of window tinting.

You won’t find many local area shops who have invested in technology.  We have!

This means we can get your car done in 2 hours or less!

You have better things to do all day rather than waiting for your car!

  • All window films are warranted by the manufacturer for a Lifetime. Our FormulaOne Films are unique since they offer a NO FAULT warranty. No other window tint shop but FormulaOne can make that statement and back it up!
  • New cars and SUV’s rely heavily on Bluetooth technology and metallic films can attenuate (interfere) with these EM signals as well as radio frequency (RF).

  • FormulaOne Pinnacle Films and Stratos are non attenuating , non conductive so we simply can’t interfere with cell phones or Sirius Radio!
  • GPS works perfectly with Pinnacle Films non-metallic non interfering!

  • We are family owned and operated. No “gasoline alley” treatment.
  • Sure, we carry LLumar ATR and if you are pricing around we won’t let a dime a dozen LLumar dealer beat us on these mid-range performance films.

  • If however you require superior heat rejection in your too hot car, than you might wish to consider Comfort and Pinnacle Films. better heat rejection, better warranty (transferable) and of course a no fault warranty!

Don’t even think about getting your car done at a Flea Market!!

Selecting Best Value Window Tinting For Florida’s Prestige Homes

We love the question: “How does Vista or Huper Optik compare to 3M film?”

Typically get this question from a consumer who has been quoted a high cost from the home depot 3M install program.

Prices so inflated that we were wondering if platinum was being added into the deal? 

1457705_667075529992588_888455922_nCheck out that left top panel with 3M film.

The remaining panels have Huper 30 ceramic film.

This haze is a crucial difference between the Vista and Huper ceramic films and 3M’s nano line.

Seeing is believing. If you have any doubt at all; we’ll do a side by side comparison.

If you prefer an invisible coating that will maintain the aesthetic appearance of your glass; you should consider our Huper Optik ceramic film.

  • Vista Films were the first NFRC Certified window films. Huper Optik has also been certified.The reason this is important for consumers is the documented performance you will enjoy when the installation is completed. It separates fact from fantasy when you might hear spurious claims about 97% heat rejection or better heat rejection at angles.

  • This is a key issue for gated communities as well as deed restricted neighborhood where a shiny film is forbidden.

  • Our 8 ML Vista and Llumar Magnum Films  have greater puncture resistance thanks to the thicker multi-layered composition.  Their ultra film is thinner and less secure than our 8 ML or thicker coatings.

  • Their hard coat is no stronger than Vista’s. Any implication that their film withstands scratches better; or is Windex safer than ours is false.
  • The optical clarity of our VISTA films is unsurpassed.  We’ll take that match up film to film any day!
  • VISTA manufactures all of their window films and does not “private label” outside manufacturer’s film. PERIOD!  The list of films sold by 3M that are actually made by other lesser known companies is too long to list here.
  • Vista offers dual reflective films in a 5, 7,14, 15, 18, 25, 28, 38, 45, and 48 % visible light transmissions. 3M in a 15, 25, 35 only!
  • We offer a full line of bronze films.  3M has none.
  • VISTA & LLumar Magnum Security Films are available in a 20 neutral, 20 silver, 28, 38, 40, 50 and clear. 3M in a  25, 35, and clear 4ML and clear 6 ML and their 50 and 70 prestige.  The re-package another manufacturer’s 14 ML film and brag about how strong it is. Obviously that same film is available directly from the OEM at a fairer price.

That’s our top ten reasons consumers select our VISTA Films!
