“Phil and his guys at South Coast Tints have wrapped two cars for me now. A Jaguar XFS and Mustang GT which they also did window tints on. Both were superbly finished with an attention to detail and a pursuit of perfection, which I seldom find in suppliers of vehicle services these days. Indeed it was the local Jaguar dealer who recommended me to him which speaks volumes.

Both cars look immaculate and both have held up well with no signs of stone chips or bug marks on either car. The film they use is almost imperceptible if anything adding to the gloss of the paint without any of the orange peel I have noticed on films used on other cars I have seen. The film takes a polish well and squashed bugs, pollen and bird droppings clean off easily without leaving any residual marks. The demo he does with a wire brush and a hairdryer on the film is quite remarkable, and a minor stone mark on the Mustang healed itself in an afternoon of just sitting in the sunshine with no further action from me.

Phil’s customer service is exceptional. He provides a realistic estimate of the time a job will take, but if after starting a job he thinks it might take a little more time to get it absolutely perfect, he keeps you informed of progress and even sends photos. One thing he won’t do is rush a job and let it go out imperfect. That said I think the Jaguar only took 2 days and the Mustang which has some particularly difficult body lines and a vast bonnet took just over 3 days.

With me, he was happy to drop me off and pick me up at the local station to get home. In my opinion, his prices are very fair, he is a delight to deal with, being friendly, realistic and refreshingly free of the bulls**t you find in the trade. He also offers a 5-year guarantee.

For Tints or Paint Protection Film, I would recommend him every time and have.”
