The Film Takes the Hit.
The Glass Stays Clean.
Spray Paint
Film peels cleanly. Glass underneath is untouched.
Acid Etching
Sacrificial film absorbs the etch. Replace and restore.
Surface Scratches
Scratches stay on the film, not the glass.
Permanent Markers
Film handles ink solvents; glass doesn't always.
Street-level glass
takes the hits.
Storefront and ground-floor glass is the most-tagged, most-etched, most-scratched surface a business owns. A clear sacrificial film absorbs the spray paint, the acid, and the key marks — then peels away with the damage, leaving the glass underneath factory-perfect.
- Optically clear — 92%+ light
- Absorbs paint, acid, scratches
- Glass underneath stays perfect
- Invisible to your customers

Two generations.
One standard — perfection.
Tint Crew has worked glass across Orange County and LA from our Buena Park shop since 1985 — a 2nd-generation, family-owned crew with 40+ years and 150,000+ installs behind every cut.

Anti-Graffiti FAQ
Cost & Coverage.

Depends on your policy. Most commercial vandalism riders cover film replacement. We file claims directly with major carriers and have replacement crews on call for 48-hour turnaround.
