SCTINTS LAUNCHES A NEW SERVICE

By Simon 08/11/07

South Coast Tints are pleased to announce a new service that reaches out to the customer who doesn't wish to pay for the high end product and service provided by South Coast Tints...This new service is called Bargain Tints

Bargain Tints...A New affordable Window Tinting Solution...

Above looks there are many practical reasons for having your windows tinted, for example UV and Heat protection. At South Coast Tints we understand that and thus we are now able to offer a quality professional installation at a very affordable price.

So how can we do this?
Our window tinting team are trained in a very unique way. There is no need to remove any windows for a start and we have templates for most vehicles ready and waiting. We have up to three skilled installers working on your vehicle at anytime (Just like your local hand car wash center).

For example; A new 07 shape fiesta can be window tinted in just 12 minutes with two of our highly trained people, this is a fact. Not all cars are that easy, that’s just one example. We can and do turn most installations around within an hour.

So how does a South Coast Tints service compare to a Bargain Tints Service?
The main points to notice are that Bargain Tints use a cheaper film, this cheaper film still has all the UV and Heat Protection required and comes in the popular shades as a choice.

The chart below demonstrates what you get as a comparison between the two services.

SCTints Vs Bargain Tints Service

Our installation techniques and approach to customer satisfaction is not compromised on this service. This service is not available to our trade customers.

QUALITY TINT INSTALLATION - THE WOOD FROM THE TREES!

By Simon 08/09/07

Hi Reader...Now-a-Days anybody can go out and buy a window tint kit or buy a roll of film and thus the nature of the window tinting industry and the quality of installations varies greatly between providers, making it difficult for you as the consumer to know what makes a good tinting installer and whether you are getting value for money.

As professionals South Coast Tints regularly see inferior tint installations brought to us by customers of companies which do not meet our high standards in both application and aftercare. We are often asked to remove these sub-standard tints and reapply window film, meaning additional cost for these customers.

Although it can be described as an aftermarket fit, this should not mean quality should be sacrificed. South Coast Tints prides itself on providing a finish which is almost indistinguishable from factory fitted glass.

Many inexperienced tinting companies may leave you with an application which initially looks good on the surface, but after it has had time to cure and dry, results in an unsightly finish and un-happy customers.

It is true that there are many different ways to tint vehicle windows, some people take all the door panels off the car, leaving squeeks and rattles as you drive and some less professional/experienced remove your windows. It is only when experience and knowledge come together, that you can expect the perfect tint installation which is designed to last. This is the standard South Coast Tints meets and exceeds with each application we undertake.

Tint Contamination
Often understanding what constitutes a good job is difficult, but one area is clear ‘Avoid any contamination’, which is easier said than done!

Contamination is dirt, lint or small air born particles that get trapped underneath the film during the installation process. The image below shows small white particles that detract from your tint job. When these dry it can cause bigger problems, like the bubble that has come up in the centre of the screen. All areas of our applications from side windows to difficult saloon rear windows undergo substantial quality control before the vehicle leaves the tint bay. All installations are completed in our purpose built tint unit that undergo strict dust controll, to minimise contamination to offer you a premium installation.

Thanks for taking the time to find out more... Enjoy September, Simon.

ALOE BASED SUNTAN LOTION

By Simon 15/08/07

On a previous SCTints Blog, Dr Fosko was suggesting that by tinting the side window glass or using UV filters on the windows will help reduce a driver's risk of harmful exposure. To further minimise the risk of UV exposure while driving, Dr. Fosko advises drivers to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 15 or higher on sun-exposed areas and to wear protective clothing whenever possible.

Dawnbreaks is a sister company to South Coast Tints, that supplies a range of Aloe Vera based products for the UK market. Often called the ‘Miracle Plant’ or the ‘Natural Healer’, Aloe Vera is a plant of many surprises.

It flourishes in warm and dry climates, and many people mistake it for a cactus, but, in fact, it's a member of the Lily family. Ancient records show that the benefits of Aloe Vera have been known for centuries. Its therapeutic advantages and healing properties have survived more than 5,000 years.

Today the reputation of this remarkable plant continues to grow. It is used by millions of people around the world for both external applications and internal use, many of which are documented in Magazines & Newspapers.

An example is Aloe-based Suntan lotion: Keep your skin supple and smooth while you tan using Aloe-based Suntan lotion with an SPF 30. List price £10.59... Now on Sale @ £9.97 Click here to find out more about aloe-based suntan lotion or to make a purchase.

Thanks to Forever Moisturising Sunscreen Lotion with Aloe, it's never been easier to enjoy the outdoors while taking good care of yourself and your loved ones at the same time!

This newly-formulated product actually protects your skin against dangerous sunburns and the harmful effects of the sun's UVA/UVB rays with a unique and effective SPF 30 sunblock, specially formulated with 100% stabilised Aloe Vera Gel.

You'll appreciate this gentle, yet potent water-proof formulation that even retains its sun protection factor even after 40 minutes of activity in the water!

Experts now advise that sun protection be used all year-round, so make sure you order plenty for every season in the sun!

CUSTOMER ENDORSES OUR SAFETY & SECURITY FILMS

By Simon 17/07/07

Dear readers, this was text taken from a recent SCTints customer regarding our Safety / Security films. I think you will find it interesting reading, further endorsing our quality installations and use of top quality Safety and Security films.

******************* eMail Start *******************

Hi

Sorry for delay in sending reply

Hope this is ok didn't want to bore you with the whole saga!

I recently had the misfortune to suffer an attempted break in to my car! The perpetrators tried unsuccessfully to gain access by smashing the passenger door front window, I say unsuccessfully, as due to the security film I had carried out by South Coast Tints recently, instead of smashing the window, the glass shattered and stuck to the coating keeping the window intact and the contents of my car safe and no bits of glass everywhere! A product I would strongly recommend!

Should anyone want verification of this gladly give them my email address and I will be only too pleased to extoll the virtues of your product

Regards
Sheila
