We only use premium window tint that will last as long as your car.
No, we can’t tint your whole car for $99. I wish we could. We would have to use very cheap window tint that is not going to last. We don’t like that business model.
The price for tinting your car will vary depending on the make and model of your car and which windows you want done.
Most cars take 3-4 hours to tint all the way around. Two front windows take about a hour.
YES! All of our window tint comes with a limited lifetime warranty. This warranty covers fading, peeling and cracking of the window tint. The warranty does not cover physical damage to the tint. Ex. It gets hit with a seat belt, watch or ring.
If your car is registered in Louisiana you are supposed to have 50% VLT window tint on the front doors, 35% VLT tint on the rear doors and 20% VLT tint on the rear windshield of a four door car. For SUV’s and trucks you only have to worry about the front windows being legal. Any shade is okay on all the rear windows. This will make your car legal. The actual state law says 40% VLT on the front windows. Check out this article on Louisiana’s Window Tint Law for more detailed information.
WE USE COMPUTER CUT PATTERNS
All of the window film patterns for your car will be precisely cut to fit your windows on our computer cut software program. By cutting your window patterns on the computer we do not have to put a razor blade on the outside of your windows to cut them which eliminates the risk of scratching your glass and/or cutting your factory rubber seal.
OUR CLEAN FACILITY
It is very important to have and keep a clean environment when applying window film. This is why we have invested heavily in designing our installation bay for optimum cleanliness and brightness. A clean and brightly lit bay is a key ingredient in the “clean tint job” recipe.
EXPERIENCED STAFF
Tommy is as old as a dinosaur and has been tinting windows since before I was born. You’re in very experienced hands. -Chad

We do not cut with a razor blade on your car. All of our window film patterns are computer cut for precise fitment to your vehicle.

Our Story
Southern Tint was opened in 2007 by Chad Fos. The main window tinter and co-owner Tommy Corley joined the team in 2012. They have 50 years of combined experience in the window film industry. They love what they do and are the best at it. Tommy started tinting windows way back in 1985 before anyone really knew what window tint was. The industry has come a long way since then. Tommy loves going fishing on his time off even though he’s not good at actually catching the fish. Chad started tinting in Miami after Hurricane Katrina in 2005. He opened Southern Tint when he returned home. Chad enjoys going camping with his wife and two kids on the weekends and traveling.
