Looking For A Tint Shop

I'm looking for a good tint shop in CT or the Northeast region. I'm trying to find a shop the carries 3M tint and that doesn't mind going real dark. If anyone know of anywhere please let me know. The only shops I have found in CT either don't carry 3M or don't wanna go dark.

i work for a tint shop (in maryland, sorry) and from our personal experience with 3m tint, we've had horrible luck. i'd say look for a place that uses Global Window Tint film. That's what we use, and its a lifetime warranty on the film.

every time we used 3m films we had bad luck cause it started to purple and peal within a few years, its a very thin film. the global film we use lasts a hell of a lot longer. (10+ years) and is warrantied against all stuff as long you own your vehicle.

that's just my recommendation, and i have to peal a lot of windows to retint with our film.

most we peal use sun guard and 3m films. and there not too old at all.
