As the title suggests, I'm looking for any feedback back on who and what product is good , seen lots of cars out there that just look like they've been tinted with that shiny look , looking for a more factory look if possible ???

I used National Tints a couple of months back, great job and reasonably priced. Put a 'factory' tint on for me, none of this dark dodgy stuff!

There's different types of tint film, some have a more Matt look, some are 'r' reflective and like metallic paint reflect light more.

Simply ask the tinter for a film that produces a factory finish (I.e., non metallic)

Some cars though look better with tint as the glass will already be tinted from the factory and it depends on the colour of tint used at the factory, Mercedes use a green tint in their glass which usually looks lovely with tint film applied.

As to the factory tint level, some factory's tint really dark (b pillar back) (Nissan are dark)..... Remember, any tint film on the fro t drop Windows is illegal.

Pentagon were my main competitor when I was in the game over 12 yrs ago. They will do a very good job and they use some very good quality film, or at least, they certainly used to

They do work for various main dealers including Mercedes (Facebook page is better updated than their normal website). I know numerous people that have used them as well, flawless work.

I used these guys 2 years ago and the job was excellent, it looks just as good after 2 years on the car.

Davie has done about half a dozen cars for me and agreed flawless work. Most recently did our CLS shooting brake and it looks factory.
