F A Q
As the owner of Diplomat Window Tinting I’ve seen it all, from cheap film to quantity over quality. We take the time to do the job right and use AAA products with a problem free guarantee.
Dye Film is a low grade film that can crack, peel, purple & fade at any time. We do not sell or offer installation of Dye Film.
Color Stable Film means it will always keep a dark to light shade and will never crack, peel, purple or fade purple. In time, after the film has been exposed to seasonal weather the heat rejection tolerance will go down causing more heat to enter the vehicle.
Ultra has an 80% heat rejection and a 90% Infrared rejection with a unique color. You’ll get the chills even in the hottest weather. Just like our slogans says ‘’Enjoy The Sunshine Without The Heat’’
Nano-Ceramic Film has a heat rejection of 65% and a 45% infrared rejection.
It has a unique luxurious color when looking out and has a stronger scratch resistant coating built into it.
We offer a Life Time warranty on all our workmanship & material for total satisfaction.
- You get what you pay for.
- Cheap quality film or re-boxed film.
- Many tinters will not honour the warranty.
- It will cost almost double what you paid to remove low grade film. Removing film from the rear window may cause the rear defroster lines not to work.
Absolutely not.
Due to major particle contamination in open air and environment it will always lead to unsatisfactory tint job.
Dark to Light film.

Do not clean the windows for 30 days. The windows will look blurry, bubbly and cloudy after the tint is applied and could take to 19 days for the window to cure.
Don’t unroll for 3-5 days.
Never clean tinted windows with Windex, Water / Vinegar or anything with Ammonia. If using glass cleaning products, it must say (tint safe) on the bottle. Water and dish soap is fine. We also sell tint safe glass cleaner for $10 per jug.
Bubbles are moisture trapped under the film and will disappear in time. Particles are specs of dirt or debris trapped under the film and will always be there. We do our best to prevent particles from happening with excessive cleaning. All of our water is treated and we use special tools with no lint paper towels.
Dot Matrix is a border that goes around the rear window and sometimes the quarter windows. Its black when there is no film on it and when film is applied it will look white or silver giving your whole window a unique look.
Can it be prevented? Yes it can, by scraping the dot matrix off with a razor, but it is not recommended.
Yes, you cannot tint these by law. But talk to us for best suggestions.
No person, distributor, agent, dealer or other professional installation company is authorized to modify, change or extend the terms of this limited warranty or to assume or create any obligations or liabilities for the seller, without prior consent of Diplomat Window Film Corp.
Whenever Diplomat Window Film Corp. has to remove a pre-existing film on any window we may encounter issues with the defroster lines. Therefore, Diplomat Window Film Corp. cannot be liable if the performance diminishes after removing the pre-existing film. This applies to warranty work.
Warranty coverage begins at the date of the installation. The warranty is only provided to the purchaser. The warranty is not transferable. Customer must have receipt with the master roll number in order to proceed with warranty work.
Any pre-existing damage on the windows of the vehicle prior to the application of the window film, wrongful cleaning or opening windows prior to adhesive fully curing will void the existing warranty.
Yes, all window film will fade or turn purple or brown, Unless it’s a Dyed Color Stable Film or Nano Ceramic film. Diplomat Window Tinting only uses Dyed Color Stable Film Or Nano Ceramic Film.
We carry a film no one else offers. My product is very glossy with self healing properties so it will always look new. It’s thick enough to also helps prevent rock chips.
Spray Tint – looks runny, to dark or to light, scratches easily, looks dull and blotchy.
Regular Head & Tail Light Tint, looks dull, scratches super easy, looks horrible and doesn’t have any gloss and a very ugly color.
Plasti Dip – has a matte / dull finish to it. It’s very noticeable and will cause un wanted attention.
Can we see the difference in between these film VS Diplomat Window Tinting?
Yes! I have samples in my shop or click this link.
Dyed film consists of the following 4 different layers.
- Dyed Polyester Film
- Mounting Adhesive
- Scratch Resistant Hard Coat
- 99% UV Rejection
Dyed films are non-reflective in a solid color, offering no reflection. Dyed film has no effect on any type of electronics installed in the vehicle. For the price you cannot beat the quality Dyed Film has to offer.
Metalized film consists of the following 5 different layers. (We don’t use metalized film.)
- Metalized Film
- Mounting Adhesive
- Laminated Adhesive
- Scratch Resistant Hard Coat
- 99% UV Ray Rejection?
Metalized film is coated with a thin sputtered layer of (25-30) different types of metal. Different metals are chosen to control and subtract specific bands of radiation (A, B & C) from the solar spectrum. With all these metals combined it gives a high reflective, glossy and a mirror effect look.
Metallized film gives a light bluish look from the inside. Outside will be a highly reflective look and pending on the shade you desire it will look black. Metallized film is desired for the glossy, mirrored look.
One of the attributes of metallized film is it can take extreme climate changes and will hold its specs longer than a dyed film would. When the film fades it will turn yellowish and clear.
Metallized film has extreme interference on electronic(s) built in and/or in the vehicle such as; cell phones, GPS, radar detectors, satellite radio and much more.
Hybrid film consists of the following 6 different layers.
- Dyed Polyester Film
- Metalized Film
- Mounting Adhesive
- Laminated Adhesive
- Scratch Resistant Hard Coat
- 99% UV Ray Rejection
Hybrid Film is a combined mixture of dyed and metal consisting primarily of titanium and aluminum. It produces a medium mirrored surface with great spec performances and has a blue shade when looking out.
Hybrid film is a new technology replacing the defects in metalized film. It is blended primarily to reduce the interference metalized film has with all electronics devices and still has a good source of heat rejection.
Nano-Ceramic film consists of the following 5 different layers.
- Nano Ceramic Technology
- Mounting Adhesive
- Laminated Adhesive
- Scratch Resistant Hard Coat
- 99% UV Ray Rejection
Enjoy the sunshine without the heat!
With my Nano Ceramic Coating Films they all provide excellent optical clarity with full natural colors. Reduce day and night time glare with extraordinary heat & infrared rejection even in the lightest shade. Nano Ceramic Film allows more visible light and reduces more solar & infrared heat than any other film on the market. It doesn’t interfere with any electronics you rely on in your vehicle. Let the film do all the work when it comes to the sun’s harmful UV Rays (A, B & C) the film has a built in SPF +1000. This will be all the protection you’ll ever need to hide behind. Your vehicle’s interior trim is protected and always looking new.
Unfortunately you cant. You’ll need to buy them pre-tinted.
