Richmond's window tinting specialist
The Tint
Doctor
Every job starts the same way — with a plan. Scroll to watch one come together.
02 — Chassis
From the
ground up.
We treat every car like it was built for the bay — measured, mapped, and understood before a single cut.
03 — Finish
Paint
& polish.
Your car arrives looking good. It should leave looking better — and never with a scratch it didn't come in with.
04 — Glass prep
Surgically
clean.
Dust is the enemy of a clean install. Every pane is scrubbed, squeegeed and inspected before film comes near it.
05 — Film
The film
goes on.
SunTek carbon or ceramic, hand-cut to your glass and laid edge to edge. No bubbles, no gaps, no shortcuts.
The prescription
Four shades. One right answer for your car.
The number is how much visible light gets through. Lower is darker. Tap a shade to see it on real glass.
Front side windows
50%
Darkest allowed on front doors in Virginia.
Sedan rear & back glass
35%
Darkest allowed behind the driver on cars.
SUV, truck & van rear
Any
Multipurpose vehicles can go darker in the back.
Windshield
AS-1
Strip to the AS-1 line only. Full windshield needs a DMV medical waiver.
A general guide, not legal advice — ask Jacob what's right for your vehicle. 5% film carries an extra charge.
Starting prices
Carbon or ceramic.
Both are SunTek. Carbon is the sharp, no-fade everyday film. Ceramic adds serious heat rejection for Virginia summers.

Authorized SunTek dealer
★★★★★ 5.0 on Yelp & Setmore
"No one touches my windows but him."
Jacob did my 08 F150 (work truck), my wife's 2019 Highlander and my 2012 F250. He is one of the best in the Richmond area, if not the best.
Gary
Got my 2 front windows tinted and Jacob did a beautiful job! Quality work at a great price.
D. Johnson
Jacob did my F 150 a while back and I have gotten more compliments on it than I can count. Quality work and great service.
Jeff Ferrell
It came back perfect — it even came with papers and a do not wash or let window down sign (lol).
Tonya
Best tint place in Richmond. Jacob is a very nice and friendly guy that stands behind his work!
