What to expect
The day itself.
Drop off
Morning drop at the Springdale shop. We confirm your film and darkness before we cut anything.
Preparation
Every window cleaned twice. Most bubbling people complain about is dust that was never removed.
Installation
Computer-cut patterns, heat-shrunk to the glass. No blades anywhere near your defroster lines.
Pickup
We text you when it is ready. Leave the windows up 3–5 days while it cures; slight haze at first is normal.
