Not skilled at tinting. After 4 times taking my car for air bubbles, this is what is left. A noticeable bubble that can be seen from far away, it looks like a window crack. Not happy with their service. I do tell everyone about this place and bubbles on my tint, and I won't recommend this place. read more

The service, quality and value on the tint on my new vehicle was amazing. Got my vehicle in and out with no issues or problems. Highly recommended read more

Recently got my windows tinted few days ago, all around and it was SUPER FAST!! Extremely good quality and excellent customer service. Granted I arrived soon as they opened but still the wait time exceeded my expectations. Plus their establishment has a great seating area and provide proper entertainment. I highly recommend this place. Was referred to by DARCARS Toyota 355. read more

Yes!!! This tint shop is it!!! It took them 2 hours to do two windows as a random walk in client. The guy in the front of the shop was so nice and walked outside to give me the best recommendation for my new BMW . I didn't want something super dark but I didn't want to be so seen. Haha. They have a waiting area in case you don't have a ride. But I left and came back and my car was so nice!!! They have all levels of quality tints you can choose from. Love this spot. If I decide to go darker? I'm coming back here. I like this place better than the one in Gaithersburg. I got robbed! read more

Well unfortunately, along with the rest of the negative reviews I have to agree. - I brought a brand new car (off the lot temp tags and all) to be tinted and unfortunately received a damaged car in return. There are two scratches on it in places I have absolutely no idea how or why they happened. One near the drivers side door and the other on the rear view mirror. Both places clearly in my eyesight, I noticed the defects as soon as I left. I also knew I was their last customer of the day they were closed, so I called and left a voicemail. When I did not receive a call back the next day, I called and they said I could bring the car by. I immediately met with a rude and combative manager, who clearly had no interest in the time or money I had just given them. He wanted to continuously argue with me that there's no way it could've happened with them and then proceeded to look inside of my car and tell me how many defects it has coming from the dealership and all the problems new cars have. I can promise you I went over this vehicle with a fine tooth comb before it was picked up and observed anything that needs to be fixed by the dealership. He offered for me to take it to their upholstery guy to "see how it happened" because he kept saying there's no way it could've happened with them. I told him that he was the expert and I would like to know what happened with my vehicle. That I would've been less disappointed if somebody would've just told me about the damage instead of ignoring it. He kept offering their guy but very clearly no matter what the upholstery service said, the cards would be their favor. I then offered to take it to my upholstery service and he said if they could tell them how it was done maybe they could come to "some kind of understanding". How would the upholstery services know how the damage was if they were not there while the car was being worked on? I would be happy to take it to both their upholstery service, and mine. At the same time, why waste my time? There were other excuses, he tried to make such as "I've been driving the car around all day and they didn't know about it." I told him they should listen to their voicemail because I called them on my way home. It was obvious that no matter what was said that they had no interest in taking responsibility. They do also have you signed the paperwork before you get your keys back to your vehicle. If I would've seen this damage, I would've let them take the tint right off and never would've utilize their services. Make sure you look it over before you sign anything. There were so few bad reviews for this place that I really thought it was worth it to use a small business, but I was most definitely in the wrong. I have no interest in arguing with their manager, no matter how much he tried to argue with me. I will never bring another vehicle there or recommend this shop to anyone. If it's even worth mentioning, the front tint does not match the back. The back windows are much darker. If I'm correct as most businesses do, there will be some reply to this on how I didn't take up their offer to take it to the upholstery shop. In the end, nothing will be done to fix the damage. The least I can do is warn everyone else that if you have a vehicle that you worked really hard for and want to keep in good condition, take it anywhere else. read more

We loved it. They're the best tint shop in town. Cheaper than any other ones and their staff are nice and professional.

Excellent choice for my tinting needs! I was at the Jiffy Lube next door getting the oil in my wife's Expedition changed. I decided to walk next door to see if it was possible to get the windows tinted while I was in the area. I was planning to make an appointment on another day if it was necessary as it was late on a Saturday afternoon and probably couldn't get in at that time. To my surprise, I was told they could fit me in after the oil change next door. They quoted me a very fair price and accommodated my schedule and performed quality workmanship! My hat is off to this well established quality business. Looking forward to more tinting in the future. read more

Had my Tesla Model 3 tinted here. The work is good. But be very clear with them on what you will and will not get. I told them I want the tint in the rear to go all the way to the cross bar in the middle of the car. They charged me an extra $150 (for the cheapest carbon tint) for the rear windshield. I asked the guy twice (once was in the phone). Will I see the line? He said no. Turns out, I see the line. The tint only goes half way up the rear windshield, which looks really bad. In fact, this shouldn't even be an option and they should just quote once price to the tint all the way to top. They proceed to tell me that the $150 is an extra surcharge because the rear windshield is bigger than standard. But if you look at where the line goes to (that's where the tint ends), it's not that different than any other windshield I really can't stand the look and To redo it, they quoted me a prohibitively expensive price. A lot more than to redo the tint on the whole car. Disappointing. read more

Two years ago I had the Tint Shop install a ceramic tint on the side windows and front windshield of my RAM 3500, which is actually a camper van. Jose gave me the perfect solution for reducing heat and glare in the van by recommending a slightly darker tint on the side windows and a lighter tint on the front windshield so as not to impede visibility at night. The work was perfectly done and now, 2 years later, the tint is still as good as new. I rarely write a review, but in this case, the Tint Shop deserves my high recommendation. read more

Walked in, Jose explained the tint options, got a quote and brought car back same day. Needed my front 2 windows tinted. I was out within 30 mins. Great service and looks awesome! Learned they also repair dings and dents! read more

Got front windows tinted with ceramic tints. Good service. Reasonable price. Took less than an hour. Only thing - had to request a wipe down of the doors after inspecting the job. Tints looked good, just didn't do the best with cleaning up once the job was done. Nothing to deduct a star from though - Elio made it right. read more

Mike A I was very pleased with the quality of work. The first person I met from desk Elio very knowledgeable and friendly. On top of all things mention prices were very reasonable.I would strongly recommend them . read more

This place does a bunch of tints for all vehicles and the owner Jose is on-site to work and supervise. It's not the cheapest but it may be worth it. There are many choices of tint to choose and the prices correspond to the type. You just don't know what is on the vehicle if you choose the cheapest or the most expensive. The waiting room is acceptable but you can't see the vehicles being worked on. I've had four cars done here and so far it's good quality. I'm glad they changed the front desk person from a few years ago, a service issue that hopefully has been fixed. read more

Stopped by to get tints done on my husband's Chevy Suburban today. Very satisfied w the customer service and work that was done. Same day service is unbeatable. We added tints to the front windshield as well. Very satisfied and highly recommended! read more

*Lackluster warranty aimed so you don't use it, no attention to detail, avoid this place* Got my BMW tinted here, and am not impressed. I've tinted my windows before, but wanted a more "professional" application. The windows are very easy but the rear windshield can be a pain. The top of the window tint isn't even to the window, and there is a slice of window that they missed in the rear quarter panel. There's no excuse for that really. I saw a couple creases as soon as they did it, I get it happens but it goes to show the quality and attention to detail, very minimal. There is noticeable and audible peeling at the corner of the window within a couple months. It has been a total of 6 months now and it's getting worse, it's noticeable a good distance from outside of the vehicle. I waited a week for it to set, even though they recommended 3 days. Warranty only covers week days M-Thursday, and not even Friday so it's impossible if you work. They seemed to have took minimal preventative care to not get the soapy water all over the doors. I received my car with drip marks all over the doors. The door lock coincidentally has been giving me issues ever since. It's a shame, but I'm currently looking elsewhere for my other tinting needs. Overall, the quality is not great. I cannot recommend this place if you care about what you pay for. read more

Just stopped in to have the tint on the back window of my 2017 Gti repaired because of bubbling after 5 years. In and out in less than an hour and they stood by their lifetime warranty, awesome! This is why I have used them since 2001 on every car I've owned. read more

Left two messages for service and one email. I called during business hours on separate days. Nobody picked up the phone, nobody returned my messages. Can't use the service if they don't return calls. Even if they are swamped, at least reply for the sake of the customer relationship. read more

I got my Lexus's windows tinted at Tint Shop 1986 and I had an overall great experience! They were super friendly and caring. Did the job in about under 2 hours & I can't express how happy I am with my cars tints! I did accidentally roll my windows down on the way home and called the shop to explain what happened. He kindly asked me to return to shop and he fixed it quickly at no charge! I highly recommend this shop for great prices and value! read more

Great local shop and it appears to be family owned. I was a walk in customer and the guy at the counter was friendly and very knowledgeable about tints. Bringing Cash gives discounts which is awesome. After picking up, the tints look good....but not great. After waiting 3 weeks for full drying there are still some areas with visible streaks. I took the car for a detail prior to my walk in. So the windows were flawless from the inside. Not sure what went wrong during the installation. Another issue was the installer scuffed my passenger door edge. The car was parked next to this large white pillar that advertises the surrounding businesses. I'm almost certain this was where the the door was scuffed. It's a sporty car with long doors so it happens when people aren't careful. It's kind of a bummer but it's an old car. Nothing a little touch up paint can't fix. read more

Tint Shop is my go to. I have taken all my cars here for tinting. The quality and service are amazing; because of that I have recommended my friends and family here. The other day I came by with my new car and texted my friend that I was getting my windows tinted. He texted me back saying "You should check out Tint Shop on Rockville Pike they do an awesome job." ... To that I replied "That's where I'm at and I was the one that told you about this place!" ... He said "Word!" Not only that but Bao (Bob) is a cool dude; he's personable, honest and will help you decide on the right tint for your car at an unbeatable price. Thanks dude! read more

Before you go, make sure you get a quote in writing, whether text message or email. Guy, should've got a name, quoted 330 for whole car and 160 drive windshield. He even stated my model asking if it was a suv from mercedes. Told me to drop off the car next day at 9am, drove 40mins in the morning to get there and my friend as well to bring me to work. Got here and another guy quotes me 60 dollars more. Then he says he'll do it for $450.00 and then goes back and quotes $583.00. Make sure you get your quote in writing, I wasted my time, mileage and gas, tolls and even my friends time because they can't keep there promise on a quote. read more

I have so much respect for this shop that I wanted to rewrite my review to elaborate. I have come here for a long time. At one point I was impatient and went to another place. They messed up horrible. That's to say, I have been to other shops. The owner strives for five star service with every client. His shop does an incredible job and will always stand behind their work. I have grown to know the owner well and he is a very friendly guy dedicated to providing the best service for his customers. It's hard to find good, honest, quality shops in the car industry, but this shop is hands down the best in its class. My hats off to this team and I highly recommend them. I'll never be impatient again. read more

I wanted tints done fast on a Friday. I went to two places before this and they either tried to get me to come another day OR tried to get me to drop my car off and pick up SEVERAL HOURS LATER! I called this place and the guy promised me on the phone no more than 90 minutes. From drop off to pick up it was 65 minutes. Also--there's plenty of places to eat lunch or get coffee across the street. The other guys' locations were grim industrial parks. This place was $25 more expensive than the other 2 places but my time and sanity is worth way more! I would recommend to anyone who values their time. read more

Fairest prices for a high quality tint removal and application. We recently moved here from California, where window tint laws are much more lax. Once we miserably failed our MD car inspection, we were referred by several body shops to the Tint Shop for quick and easy tint removal in order to pass. We shopped around, but they provided the best services for the best prices. Almost everyone we called recommended Tint Shop, and it's easy to see why! They were also very helpful after our replacement tint service and the associates eased our worries regarding temporary streaks and stains in the drying period. 10/10 recommend! read more

This shop is VERY popular so expect an estimate of a 2 hour wait (even though I went first thing in the morning). But the wait is definitely worth it! Unfortunately, there's no waiting area due to COVID, so ask a friend to pick you up and explore Rockville. The employees were nice and knowledgeable. Hand sanitizer readily available. The tint work looks perfect and comes with a lifetime warranty. Highly recommend this place. read more

The Tint Shop 1986 has always been my go to place whether it comes to window tinting, paint protection film/clear bra, ceramic coating, and headlight wraps. My first experience with this shop was for my Tesla M3, and the quality of the work that was done was amazing. I have also referred my family to this shop, and they have had great experiences, just as I have. The staff are extremely friendly, communicate effectively, and I can always count on them to do excellent work on my cars. I definitely recommend this shop to everyone in Rockville/Gaithersburg area, and will continue to choose this shop over any other. 5/5 stars :) read more

Great place to get your car tinted! I've taken maybe 3-4 cars and never had any issues. They make sure to tell you the legal tints of Maryland and also do a great job of explaining all the options.

Best thing about this shop is you can't beat their prices and they accept walk-ins. My husband and I went to this shop Saturday afternoon to have my two front windows and a brow of my Santa Fe Sport done and my husband got all his windows on the WRX tinted. The price for both cars was around $350 and that's with one of the higher tint levels. They Tint Shop team did a pretty good job. They finished both cars in a reasonable amount of time, even with all the other customers they were serving. The waiting area inside the shop is very nice and clean, you almost forget you are waiting at a shop. I would totally recommend this company for your tinting needs. They will totally take care of you and not take advantage. Great job guys. You will be my go to shop from here on out. read more

This is the second car that I have gotten tinted by these professionals and again, they didn't disappoint. I made the mistake of going to a competitor for a slightly lower price and I got what I paid less for... inferior work. The fast, friendly service by Tint Shop was perfect to me and to make the experience even MORE pleasant, Jose' didn't try to sell me something more than what was right for my needs and my vehicle. With a warranty on top of their great work and fair pricing, I cannot recommend them enough. If you choose to wait for your tinting, the lounge is quite comfortable and there are some good restaurants that are within walking distance! read more

Owner is rather rude. Not going to give a terrible review. Work was okay yet he has to remember about customer service.

For my new car, I wanted to get that extra fine detail of my tinted windows. The guy was very helpful and very knowledgeable about the material/product which made me feel I was in a great place for my service. I'm very pleased with the timing it was done as well they quoted me 2-3 hours it was done in under two, especially due to Covid a lot of different shops were only doing appointments only and booked very far in the future but here, they told me to come as soon as they open and they will get it done in a matter of a few hours, so they did. Price wise it was wonderful because unexpectedly paying cash it was a little cheaper in price which was a nice surprise. Highly recommend this place for it's service and quality! read more
