About Upstate Tint Pros

Window tinting in Rochester is Upstate Tint Pros' core trade, run from a Mount Read Boulevard shop by installers who were tinting cars long before the Flower City storefront opened. It is an authorized Solar Gard dealer covering automotive window tinting, paint protection film and residential and commercial window film, and it runs an in-house vinyl division, Beast Coast Custom, for wraps and vehicle graphics. One job that looks simple and is not is the front-window match. Most SUVs and trucks leave the factory with dark privacy glass behind the B-pillar and clear glass up front, so film on the front doors has to land inside New York's legal shade while still reading as the same color as the factory rear glass in daylight. Miss it and the truck looks two-toned from the curb; get it right and it looks like it came that way. Ceramic film helps, because it rejects the infrared heat you feel at a summer red light without needing to go darker to do it, and it holds its color rather than drifting purple the way a cheap dyed film can. A windshield sun strip is a common add-on, and a straightforward tint is often a same-visit job measured in tens of minutes. Beyond glass, the shop films the panels that catch stone chips, and through Beast Coast prints and installs color-change wraps, commercial lettering and fleet graphics, plus home and office film for glare and heat. Having the tint bay and the graphics division under one roof means a car, or a work van, can be tinted, protected and branded in one place. Weekday hours plus a Saturday morning suit a working schedule, and estimates come by phone, text or email.
