Customer Reviews from Around the Web

Highly Recommend

Mike Verbik - August 3, 2011

I did a quick google search for car window tinting in Tacoma and found that Cool Window Tinting was the best place around: I'm a military spouse not from this area so I rely on other customer revews to find a lot of services that I need. Mike's customers seem to think he's AWESOME from all of his positive reviews; and I'm no different. Mike was great and he did a phenominal job. I brought my wife's car in to get done and it looks awesome, then the next month I brought my car to get done as well. Mike took really good care of me and our cars. He had to take panels out of the doors and rear windows to get the tint film all of the way down to the edge. He put the cars back together and no one would know the difference. Mike guarentees his work which is great because there was a small imperfection in my wife's rear window along the defroster line and I took it to him and he re-did the window even taking the back panels out to make this right. Now our cars look great, the tinting really gives your car a different look about it and makes you feel excited to keep driving it. Mike does great work, his customer service is exceptional and I would highly recommmend his services if you plan on getting your car windows tinted!

Looks Fantastic!

Mike - July 27, 2011

Just got my windows tinted on my F-150 and it looks fantastic!!! this is my 4th car/truck Mike has done for me, and I have never had a problem with any of the tinting,He also had the pictures of the door panels off showing he does it the RIGHT way.. thanks MIke, also the cleanest shop I have seen

His work is flawless

Bryan - July 7, 2011

Mike has now did 6 of my cars to date, he just finished my 2011 3500 HD, his work is flawless, and he takes pride in every single window he does, evident from the countless pictures of work he has done he has in his shop. I would never take any of my vehicles anywhere else to get tints. Besides his workmanship his customer service is above and beyond what is expected, from making sure you understand the process of the tinting, to making sure your comfortable and not bored during the short wait while he is working. -Bryan "Dr. B" Neal

Quality assurance at 100%

josh - July 18, 2011

Wow what can I say...very pleased on the service given for the window tinting on my 2010 Toyota Tundra and the wifeys 2011 audi s4. Quality assurance at 100%, very professional and comfortable environment. Extremely clean and professional shop. I could not imagine getting the same treatment from anywhere else.

Well taken care of

Kelly - June 20, 2011

Mike does a great job on the vehicles that his business tints. His obvious pride in his job really makes a difference. Mike is absolutely unassuming and educates his customers if they are in the dark in any aspect regarding the job, materials, and process. I was well taken care of at this business. Liked: Value, Service

If you want the job done right, then take it to Mike!

Dr. Green - June 15, 2011

If you want the job done right, then take it to Mike! Upon entering the shop you'll notice that it is spotless, and this reflects the quality of work that Mike provides. He guarantees his work 100% and stands by his word...PERIOD! As meticulous as Mike is, I too am a bit of a perfectionist, and after going over my car with a fine toothed comb, I noticed some small flaws that just didn't sit right with me. So I brought my car back to Mike, and without question he re-tinted two windows free of charge. Now that's what I call stand up customer service! You may pay a bit more for Mike's work, but in my opinion it is well worth the quality and piece of mind that Mike guarantees. I will definitely be coming back to Cool Window Tinting, and would highly recommend Mike's services.

Happy,Happy,Happy

Happy JJ - June 13, 2011

Great Job! Could not have been more satisfied with the work done on my car. Mike does everything he says he will and more. Shop is super clean and dust free! Work was done really quick and flawless. Happy,Happy,Happy.

Both vehicles came out perfect

Sheriff Roger - June 10, 2011

I had two vehicles tinted at Cool Window tinting. These guys are the best and I mean the BEST! Both vehicles came out perfect. Mike does the window tinting him and it has to be perfect. You have to be satisfied before you leave their business. With over twenty years experience tinting car windows you are not going to find a better place to have it done. Mike has one other employee with over fifteen years experience that does all the door dismantling so the film can be put on right. His shop is spotless and this is important in getting a good clean job in the end. If you are looking for a shop to have your window tinting done RIGHT this is the one for you. For ALL you people that think you can do business over the phone and want a cheap price. I have an idea, go to PEPBOYS and buy some cheap film and do it yourself then when you drive down the street people will LOL at the job! Bottom line you have to pay for what you get and every car is different! I am going to call my Doctor now and see if he can give me a price and tell me what is wrong with my arm. Stupid is Stupid! Deputy Sheriff Roger

Nothing less than An A+

Heath - June 7, 2011

Mike is the only person in the Seattle/Tacoma area that can actually be named someone that takes pride in window tinting. Shop is well kept and clean and a great enviroment to hang out while the job gets done. Uses the best quality tint and is well crafted no spaces go unleft with out tint. I guarentee you will like what you see just call and go in and see the cars he's done a wall full. Ive gotten 3 done by him nothing less than An A+.

Turned out very nice

pookie - June 6, 2011

went in today and got our windows tinted on our truck they turned out very nice, didn't take long and he was very friendly to our family...will definantly be going back to have our other vehicle done as well...thanks so much

Customer service was superb

Johnie B. - April 18, 2011

I have found my tinter for life. Everything posted in the reviews were exactly what I encountered. Sure he does not quote over the phone as he takes the time to educate you on the single most cosmetic improvement you can make to your vehicle. Customer service was superb. He definitely goes above and beyond to make you feel 100% comfortable with your tinting selection. The only hard decision you need to make is do I go with the 20%, 15% or 5% dark out tint. A big supporter of the military and takes great care to provide a high quality job to our community. For my situation, he far exceeded any and all expectations, going above and beyond to correct a minor issue unrelated to the tint job with my vehicle without any additional pricing other than a minor parts purchase. Knowing my schedule he went out of his way to ensure my car was acceptable by his standard of excellence rather than having me inconvenienced and faced with fixing an issue down the road. Again, he has won my trust and I will be using his services from now on. My Audi A4 looks fantastic. This sailor truly appreciates his dedication to uniformed service members.

Extremely satisfied

Sarge - April 19, 2011

Mike took excellent care of my ' 11 Hyundai Sonata, and my wife and I are extremely satisfied with our cool tint. The prices were very reasonable, and I appreciate the big military discount too! Please do not be put off that Mike wants to take the time to meet and talk to you. He does not do quick phone estimates because he offers a personalized custom service to your specs, and this takes meeting you and looking at your vehicle. He will do it right, and he guarantees his work for two years!

Would recommend him to all my friends

Karry - April 11, 2011

I was getting my husbands windows tinted for his birhday. So I called to ask for a quote after seeing Mikes website and he asked me to bring in the car. So I made a time with him during my work lunch time. He explained everything to me about window tinting. The shop was cleaner than clean. After that we set up a time for me and my husband to drop off his car. He came in early in the morning so I wouldnt miss work. He also waited for me to get off of work so we could pick it up. He did a terrific job. Mike takes a lot of pride in his work and wants people to understand that. My husband loves his tint job and I can say I would recommend him to all my friends thats where they need to go.

The best i have ever seen

Spencer - February 26, 2011

Not only was the work done to the tinting of my windows clearly above the best i have ever seen. But the shop is clean and organized. And the owner makes sure you know him and the work that he does.. along with the time it takes to make everything perfect. It is a very comfortable environment and i will go back for every car that i may have in the future!

My truck looks HOT!!!!!!

kimmiclam - May 4, 2011

Mike was amazing, he got me rightin explained to me the processcharged me the price he quoted me and inished on time. He takes pride in his work like I have never seen. I made the trip from Shelton and would do it again in a hesrt beat for the amazing results I got. My truck looks HOT!!!!!!

I could not be happier!!!

a4x4medic - April 28, 2011

Mike did an absolutely amazing job on my 2010 Kia Forte. I could not be happier!!! I do tons of research before I buy or do anything to my cars and Mike is definitely the best choice you can make to get your windows tinted. He's extremely courteous and polite, and made sure all my questions were answered before I left his shop. When I dropped off my car in the morning he wouldn't let me pay for it until after he was done to ensure I was 100% satisfied! Mike and his interior guy are awesome!!!

The best place to go for window tinting

spartan18 - April 19, 2011

Cool Window Tinting is the best place to go for window tinting. Mike does a great job on all his work and if there's a problem with it later down the road he will fix it. I've taken my car and truck there and would recommend it to everybody.

He did a fantastic job. My car looked amazing!

fritz81 - April 17, 2011

I had wanted my windows tinted for awhile, I had called around, everyone was kinda short, until I talked to Mike. He explained the process to me. I brought my car to him for an estimate and he was able to accommodate me with an appointment the next day! I took my in the next morning. He explained again his process and why it differs from most. He told me my car would be ready before I went to work that afternoon. Surly, it was! He did a fantastic job. My car looked amazing! He went step by step telling me how to car for it and showing me how everything was done. Assured me if I had any questions or concerns to not hesitate to call. I am very pleased with the service provided me. I will definitely be calling for any tint needs in the future! Thanks again Mike.

By far the best service experience I have ever had anywhere, anytime

Daniel Z. - March 25, 2011

There are rare occasion when you come across a business that truly cares about customer service. Some place say they will care about customer service, but very few exhibit that in every aspect of their business. From the customer service and satisfaction standpoint, Cool Window Tinting is by far the best service experience I have ever had anywhere, anytime. CWT was only concerned with my happiness and satisfaction with my product. The quality of the work and product were also extremely high. For these reasons I will highly recommend Cool Window Tinting to anyone who wants their windows tinted. This truly is as good as it gets in the tinting and customer satisfaction aspects.

Top notch job

Mark C. - June 1, 2011

Mike walked me through each one of the steps of tinting my windows. The shop was very professional and I had my car back in less than a day. Top notch job.

FANTASTIC job!

georgiagirl89 2/7/2011

Mike was very nice and straight to the point with me. Prices were very reasonable and he did a FANTASTIC job! Definitely very pleased with his work!

Quality product and excellent customer service

paula b 1/22/2011

I was dropping my friend off while she got her windows tinted. Once I was in the shop and saw how clean it was- I was impressed. Then I saw the quality work and the professionalism that went into her car and I was sold. I had to have my truck done as well. The quality of the job they did on my truck was amazing. I was more than impressed. The friendliness of the employees, especially the owner, was near and dear to my heart. It is hard to find great people that do great work. Mike guarantees his work for three years. Customer satisfaction assured. Being in the military himself, he caters to military Service Members. This added an extra bonus for me. Some people want to take advance of military members, but Mike only wanted to take of me and my truck! Quality product and excellent customer service, I would recommend this place to anyone!

HIGHLY recommend

by stacysmith050505 01/02/2011

All I can say is I am simply speechless! When looking for tinting services for my new Mustang I was extremely apprehensive as I definitely wanted quality work. When we called Mike to talk about the options, I have never talked to such a gracious man who is very proud of his work. He is most welcoming into his shop, which by the way you can eat off of the floor it is so clean! He takes the time to completely educate you on the process and what separates him from other tinting companies. His co worker was so fun, both of them made the initial visit worth the while. We had come in on New Years Eve, and Mike had offered to even come in on New Years Day as he knew I was anxious to have this done. He was there bright and early on New Years day and ensured me that he is very meticulous and will take his time to make sure the job is done to the upmost highest quality. A few hours when I walked through the doors of his shop, I was absolutely blown away. He completely changed the look of my car, from a great mustang to an awesome showpiece, as you can see from my picture. (My car picture is on his wall now ) . Even after the process was over, we hung out and talked to him a bit as it was just a great relaxed environment. I HIGHLY recommend Mike to anyone looking for a quality tint job. He is truley an artist!

Very Happy

by Matt M. 01/01/2011

Mike does exemplary work. I had him tint all seven windows on my 2011 Jeep Liberty KK and it looks like factory work. Once you meet Mike, you will find that he is very personable and eager to involve you in the initial assessment process. He walks you through the process, allows you to examine his credentials and usually has some recent work on display. He customizes the job to your preferences by displaying and explaining each tint gradient so that you get exactly what you want. He is extremely flexible when it comes to pick up/drop off times and maintains an impeccably clean working environment. As a career military officer, I enjoy doing business with fellow servicemen like Mike and I will recommend him to any of my fellow soldiers that are looking for a quality tint job.

Only the best in town

by Lisa B. 12/23/2010

Mike is great he did the tinting on my 2005 Sorento the best work i have seen and now he has tinted my Soul (Kia)l , he takes great care of your car i would never go any where els,His shop is very clean.(and his bathroom is clean too) I advise you to come in and get a estament and why any one would want a estament over a phone i dont understand i wanted some one to look at my car before i am told a price for a job.

And to think I had a doubt...

by Guest 10/22/2010

Over the phone he doesnt want to give a quote, he tells me bring it in,come see the shop... WOW, after seeing his shop, it gives a hospital's OR a run for its money! To say its clean doesnt do it justice. Mike is very proud of his work and it shows in the hundreds of pictures that line his walls! 3 cars later and I can assure you he will be the only one to touch my cars period. The only reason someone would go elsewhere is they dont care about the car to begin with. Top notch work, may not be as cheap as other shops, but you get what you pay for!!

Honest local business owner

by notinbuttruble 12/10/2010

Got to say the dude is squared away. Just an honest local business owner. Came in off a reference and automaticly felt comfortable dealing with Mike. Got a quick quote. What i was quoted was what i paid, actually $50 less i think. Came in two days later for the work and had my car back before i knew it. He assured me he stood by his work and would fix any defect free of charge. A lot of people say this but dont do it. I had a small peel that didnt set right during drying and instead of giving me some BS fix to save cost and get me out the door he redid the entire window at no cost. Mike is just an honest guy who does an honest job, complete professionalism all the way. Youll sense in the honesty in the guy and the care taken in your vehicle when you deal with Mike. No BS attached.

The best job I have ever seen

by Le H. 11/23/2010

If you are looking for a quick and cheap tint job, than Cool Window Tinting is not for you. If you are OCD about your car and want the best, than check out his website and drop in the shop for a quote. I have owned several cars and have had all my cars windows tinted. Mike by far has done the best job I have ever seen. He treated my car as if it were his own and provides excellent customer service.

Nothing short of PERFECTION!

by ovistroy 09/17/2010

Mike at Cool Window Tinting did a job that was nothing short of PERFECTION! He wanted to see the vehicle prior to giving his quote (which makes sense to me), his price was completely fair. His shop is spotless and he takes his time to do the job right! I have personally never seen a window tint job that looks better, and mine was done almost 2 years ago. They still look PERFECT. The glass looks like it is made dark. You cant even tell there is a covering. I would recommend Mike @ Cool Window Tinting to EVERYONE. He is a true professional with unbelievable workmanship.

Only the best in town

Mike is great he did the tinting on my 2005 Sorento the best work i have seen and now he has tinted my Soul (Kia), he takes great care of your car i would never go any where els,His shop is very clean.(and his bathroom is clean too) I advise you to come in and get a estament and why any one would want a estament over a phone i dont understand i wanted some one to look at my car before i am told a price for a job.

Soldier Friendly Professional!

Jason C.

I have waited a few days after having my windows tinted to be sure that everything worked out great. I must say that Mike is one of the most professional and detailed individual I have seen in small business. He had me come in so he could show me the type of service I would receive and to explain the quote to me. His shop is immaculately clean and he has all the pictures of the cars he has done for the last 15 years on his wall... helped me to see what type of end-product I would get. He was able to get me scheduled quickly and worked with my schedule. He was able to get my Kia Rondo (has so many windows) done quicker than he thought and it looked great! I have waited the few days to be sure that the curing process worked and I must say it looks like it came fresh out of the factory that way. He uses high-end tint and is masterful at installing it. I was very impressed for the price. He quoted me under what I thought and what others said it would cost. In all I am very pleased with the service and product and recommend Mike and his shop to anyone that wants a professional tinting their car. I am a soldier stationed at Fort Lewis and Mike, a retired soldier himself, gave me a discount which was really "cool" of him!

My lifetime window tinter

Anita M.

Great service! We have had many vehicles tinted by Mike and have not had any issues. If you do run into any issues, he will take of it on the spot. He takes his time to do great quality work and it's worth it. Thanks Mike.

A master of his craft...

Monica B.

I finally decided to get my windows tinted! Wanting to support local business, I called a couple places around Olympia and got similar estimates for my Kia. Then my boyfriend suggested (or rather, insisted) that I take my car to Cool Window Tinting in Lakewood. His two friends had gotten their windows done here and were extremely satisfied with the work. When I called to get an estimate, I was a little confused at first that he couldn't give me an estimate over the phone, but then he (the owner, Mike) patiently explained that in order to give me an accurate estimate he must first examine the work to be involved. After I brought the car in, I received an estimate that was a bit higher than the other two places, but by then I was sold. Mike was very friendly, explained his tinting process patiently, and I could tell by the thoughtfulness of his answers that he is very conscientous about his craft. In fact, he straight up told me that nothing leaves his shop that he's not proud of and to go online and read his reviews myself. His shop is clean, his couch comfortable, and he has an assortment of beverages to choose from while you wait. Although it was a 4 hour job, his company was pleasant and unobtrusive. I paid a bit more than I would have in Olympia, but my car has a sleek, quality tint job that I am proud of and a three year warranty. I am so happy that I chose the right place.

Top of the Line Work‎‎

By BKing34 - Sep 6, 2010

Cool Window Tinting does dependable top of the line work. After they tinted the windows to my first vehicle there was no way I was going to anyone else. The owner personally gets involved with every installation and they remove the door panels to assure the film goes below the bottom of the visible part of the window. If you are looking for the cheapest company this is not it but if you want the best results they are the ones. You don't go into a store expecting the top of the line merchadise at the same price as the discount bargain stores. The only negative things I have ever seen about them are people who have not used their services, once you use them you will not deny the craftsmanship or attention to detail. If you want to still look great years from now use them and noone else.‎

My lifetime window tinter‎‎

By pacislander - Sep 18, 2010

I don't know why anyone would write a negative comment about Mike or his shop. We have gone to him for almost 20 years and have not had any issues. Even if we did, he would take care of it right away. He does quality work and takes pride in what he does. It's had to find people like that. People just want a cheap job and if you want your tint to last, you will want to come to Mike.‎

Customer Satisfaction‎‎

By Devin - Sep 1, 2010

As a recent customer of Cool Window Tinting, I dont think I could be more pleased with the work and friendly service. Now, 72 hours after completion, the tinting has cured and looks fabulous. However the most satisfying part about the experience was doing business with Mike, the owner of Cool Window Tinting. He is a professional in the highest sense of the word and customer satisfaction is clearly his priority. Mike made us feel at home, and his work is guaranteed for three years.‎

PROFESSIONAL AND QUALITY SERVICE‎‎

By jgandee - Aug 31, 2010

I have had work done in Mike`s shop on 3 occasions and have been completely satisfied with his work. If not for his work on my classic 1971 Chevy stepside truck,I would not have returned to his shop. The "71" windows look as good today as they did 10 years ago when Mike installed the tinting. Since that time I have had 2 additional trucks done and just completed having my new 5th Wheel trailer`s back picture window and adjoining side widows tinted with the complete satisfaction of not only me but the ultimate satisfaction of my wife. I have been highly satisfied with Mike`s work,dedication,and his desire to meet the needs of his customers. I highly recommend his service to everyone. Thanks Mike for your excellent work.‎

Awesome Tinting Service‎‎

By Ashley - Aug 30, 2010

My husband and I just recently got our cars done by mike. I drive a 2009 Lancer Gts and my husband drives a 2010 Mustang gt. It was not an easy job and he did such an awesome job!!! His customer service is awesome and his shop is absoutely SO clean!!! We loved doing business with him and will refer all of our friends to get their windows tinted by him!!!‎

Great Window Tinting Service‎‎

By Bob - Aug 29, 2010

I brought my 2010 Subaru WRX to cool window tinting to get all the windows tinted. Once the owner saw the car he gave me a reasonable cost estimate that he stuck with. It only took him about 4 hours to do all the windows and he took the panels off to get the entire window. The owner is very friendly and knows what he is doing. I went in the shop was offered some refreshments and could watch him work and ask him questions while he did. The owner keeps his shop very organized and clean and along the walls he's got pictures of all the cars he's done. He gave me a 3 year warranty for all his work. The owner seems to care a lot about the customer and says if I have a problem all I have to do is call and he'll take care of it at my convenience.‎

10 STAR window tint guy‎‎

By mac - Aug 29, 2010

I called mike on a sunday to get my window tinted an he came to the shop on most peoples day off just for me. I brought my car in an he got straight to work. I am very pleased with his work an the prices as well as the drinks he offered at no price to me an my friends. thanks mike‎

Cool Window Tinting......‎‎

By Rednerf - Aug 22, 2010

I took my sons new 2010 Dodge Challenger to have tinted when I called mike requested to meet me I knew exactly why he did he is profectionist and costomers can be rude and unworthy of a persons time when very inexperienced. I love the quality of work done and when my son seen his car done he was really happy with the work done.. my son was the biggest critic to get through and he loves it... Thanks Mike...‎

Only the best place in town!‎‎

By Ondriea - Aug 11, 2010

Mike has the best shop its very clean he did my car 5 years ago (and the tint look as good as the day he did it) and will allways tint my car window i have been to other shops before Cool Window Tinting and the work at the other place where never as good or as clean and he does not take short cuts like other places do and have. This is the only place i would bring my car,And why would you want a randum estament over the phone,I want sone one to see my car first before getting a estament.‎

SUPERB‎‎

By Matthew - Jul 7, 2010

If you have been into Mike's shop lately you may have seen a Orange 72" Chevelle. The tint speaks for itself. Mind blowing. I cannot say what anyone else has already said. If you want to get your windows tinted Mike is the man to see.‎

A+ Job‎‎

By K - Jun 30, 2010

Mike did a great job on my 08' Silverado. Here are the facts: Mike stands by his work, which is why he provides a warranty. Mike didn't want me leaving the shop until I was satisfied with the job, and while my tint settles over the next 3 days, I know if I have a concern he will do whatever is necessary to make me happy. Mike did sound a little grumpy over the phone, but when you take your vehicle into his shop you will realize that he is a great guy! He even let me hang out in the shop, let me sit down on the couch and watch a movie while he was meticulously tinting every piece of my window, removing panels and all. The guy even offered me a drink. He respects military, fire and police and might even cut you a special rate. Anyone who bashes this guy probably works for a different shop. Can't say enough good things about him and I will certainly recommend this guy to everyone I know. The guy's been doing this for 30 years, and he's got hundreds of pictures of all of the rides he's done lining the shop walls to prove that he's experienced. Great job Mike!

Great Guy, Awesome Results‎‎

By Kelly - Jun 29, 2010

I had Mike tint my Black 2004 M3 about 5 months ago. The quality of the job is great and I have had no problems since. The tint job looks nearly stock on a car that can be very difficult to tint. Mike took extra time to go over options and details with me and even did some custom work. He went above and beyond as far as accommodating my work schedule. You may pay a bit more with Mike, but you'll get someone who actually cares about his work and craftsmanship. He's more picky than you are, I promise.

awesome job‎‎

By cramerica - Jun 29, 2010

Mike did an amazing job on my 2010 Genesis Coupe. He has great attention to detail and will settle for nothing less than a perfect job. He continually made sure to keep me informed as he was working on things to make sure that I was happy. The end result: an awesome tint job and a great customer service experience. To top it all off, Mike is just a cool guy :)

EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND QUALITY WORK‎‎

By phil - Jun 26, 2010

I first came to Cool Window Tinting 15 years ago, same location, same phone number. Businesses stay open for this long for a reason. I keep coming back because I know Mike has the experience and skills to get the job done perfect and will not settle for anything less. How nice would it be if every time you get work done on your car you got to meet the mechanic and inspect the shop before having anything done. At Cool window tinting this is exactly what you get. Take the advice from me and the dozens of other satisfied customers. Don't settle for nothing less than the best.‎

The Best‎‎

By Deion - Jun 12, 2010

Michael did an awesome job on my '02 Acura TL. It's a tough one to do as it has 7 windows total (inc. 2 small ones), but he did it. He uses charcoal tint only, not like most shops that do the job for under $150 because they use chrome tint which is illegal, cheap, and last under 2 years. He even offered me drink and food while I waited in his clean shop.‎

A First Class Tinting Job‎‎

By john-yoko - May 14, 2010

We had just purchased a 2010 Prius and wanted a first class tinting job. The Prius has a lot of glass, nine windows in all, so we began looking for a real professional. After several weeks of research we were pleased to learn that Cool Window Tinting had excellent references. When we visited Cool Window Tinting and began talking to Michael Garcia we knew our Prius wold be treated with the best of care. In addition, Michael's shop is like walking into a scientific "clean room", a bit spartan, except for the hundreds of photos of the cars, whose windows he has tinted. During the tinting process Michael took before and after photos of the car and photos with the door panels removed which facilitated the tinting process. Upon completion, he then presented us with the camera's memory card with the photos he had taken. We are totally pleased with the whole tinting experience at Cool Window Tinting.‎

Thanks Michael‎‎

By Steve - May 13, 2010

Meticulous and fair priced. Don't bother with the 'el cheapos'. Michael does it right for a fair price. What ever you might save elsewhere aint worth it. I've now had Michael tint two cars for me. I am very satisfied.‎

Great Customer Service!‎‎

By n9cspur - Apr 20, 2010

Another 5 star review for Cool Window Tinting, the cleanest shop in town! Mike preformed flawlessly on my 2010 Mustang GT, thanks for everything, the car looks awesome!!‎

Quit wasting Tme shopping around,...‎‎

I have a BMW 745i that is pristine. As such, I wanted a tint job that was perfect. Mike's staff was incredibly professional and took their time on my car. BMW's are not easy cars to work with, but Mike and his team handled it with class and ease. The result is an impeccable tint job that turns heads at every stop light. Thanks Mike for taking the time to do my car right. Its shos like yours restore my hope in the local businesses. If you care about your car, take the time to go see Mike.‎

Best In the Business!‎‎

By Mike31763 - Apr 10, 2010

Just did my 2009 Lexus GS 450h. I must say not only is it perfect in every way, Mike and his helper Mike, are not only very personable, but very honest to do business with. Mike took his time to on what was a very complicated car to do. I looked around for the right guy to do my car for a while, Last thing I wanted on a $60K car is cheap looking window tint with gaps all around the windows,it was very important to me that the car looked like it came from the factory tinted. That is exactly what I got. He spent most of the day on the car and was very meticulous, re-did a couple of windows a few times because he was not happy with it yet. When I showed up, MY only question was (are you happy with the car Mike?) knowing if he is happy, I knew the car would be perfect! Here's to you my friend! thank you! worth every penny. Check out the PIC in the shop that is my Red Lexus!‎

Top of the line in every way!‎‎

Mike did a great job (PERFECT!) on my '08 H3. He was very courteous and helpful throughout the whole process. His shop is the cleanest that I have ever seen! Mike invited me to join him so that I could learn about my vehicle. If you know anything about most shops, the owners almost NEVER let you work with them. For Mike to open his shop for a novice is AMAZING and very educational! I do not understand the previous review (Mark- Mar 23, 2010). I like to meet the people who are going to work on my vehicle face to face. The other shops that I visited were not half as clean as Mike's shop. In my experience, you have to have a clean shop to do a good job with tint. Other shops were tinting cars OUTSIDE! I do not trust a quote over the phone, as things can change when installing anything aftermarket on your vehicle. I would recommend Mike to anyone who wants to have their windows tinted!‎

Excellent Job!‎

By bhenry93083 - Jan 11, 2010

Cool Window Tint is the place to go hands down for professional window tinting! If you want the job done right then Mike is the man to see. His shop is extremely clean and he is a very personable guy. He gave me an honest price and did a superb job on my Chevy Silverado. Thanks Mike, could not be any more happy with your service! Brandon H.

Thanks So Much!

Mike at Cool Window Tinting was "Top Notch". When I called just to get a quote on tinting the windows on my new Tundra he immediatly asked me to bring it in and said that he had time to get it done. After arriving at the shop I was greeting by Mike who was extremely cheerful and very helpful at explaining the tinting process. His shop has state of the art cleanlyness, and he has tons of photos to prove his outstanding work. As a current military member, and him being a previous military member, it was fun to share stories as he miticuliosly worked on my new truck. If you are looking for someone to do an excellent job tinting the windows on your vehicle than I definitley would recommend Cool Window Tinting. Thanks Again Mike! Jill W.‎

By DOVESINFLIGHT777 - Nov 28, 2009

Great Job Mike

By chrisforslund - Nov 24, 2009

What are we all looking for when we need a job done. Honesty, professionalism and pride in workmanship. Mike at Cool Window Tinting exhibits all three of these attributes. Just bought my car, one I plan on keeping for quite a while so I wanted the best job done on my windows. Mike took the time to answer all of my questions until I was satisfied. Assured me that even though he takes off the door panels to do the tinting everything would be as I left it and it was. Tint job is perfect no complaints at all. Mike assured me if there were any problems he would make it right. I have no reason to dought him. His shop is immaculate with everything he needs to do a quality job. I would not hesitate to send anyone I know to Cool Window Tinting. Thanks Mike for taking good care of me. Stay well!!

Very Professional!

Mike is definitely the best there is and he will NOT disappoint you!!! THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH MIKE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't go anywhere else

By apenders - Aug 25, 2009

Don't waste your time looking at other shops - don't fall for the trap of a cheap quote only to find add-on costs once you get there. Take your car to Mike and you'll be completely thrilled with the results. He's super meticulous about his work and takes every precaution to make sure the job is done right. Stop reading reviews, just go see Mike.

Outstanding Work

By goldenshadow - Aug 21, 2009

After reading the reviews on here I stopped by to see for myself. Needless to say I was sold in the first few minutes I walked in the door. Mike did some beautiful work on my lincoln. He offers great prices and quick service and is without a doubt the friendliest tinting business around. If your on the hunt for an awsome tinting place, look no further.

Cool Window Tinting is the BEST!!!!

By Amy - Jul 4, 2009

I can't say enough good things about Mike and his business, Cool Windows Tinting. First and foremost, Mike's shop is immaculately clean and well maintained. He takes pride not only his shop, but the quality of his work as well. Mike was very professional during the entire process. From the moment I met him until I returned to pick up my truck, Mike was pleasant, friendly, and proficient. I wouldn't take my car to anyone else! In the future, I will recommend Mike and his work to everybody I know!

Cool Window Tinting

By tigger196 - Jun 17, 2009

Mike has tinted 3 of my cars and they were all great. He is very professional and has a very clean shop. The windows still look like they were done yesterday!

Quality, Professional and Friendly

By aarayrobinson1995 - May 30, 2009

Go in and see Mike for a quote. You will not get a better BANG for your BUCK in town. Mike did the first car for me back in 1993, a hatchback Corsica with a compound bow back window. He proved to me on that one to not even try anywhere else. He has since done about a half dozen more cars for me personally, and I have directed many people in his direction when asked about window tinting. You will not find a more professional job around. Thanks Mike !!!

Cool Window Tinting---Great Service...

By Karen - May 24, 2009

I was searching around for a window tinter for my car. I was skeptical about going to just anyone so I decided to do some research and I found out that Mike (the owner) had these fabulous reviews. When I went in the shop it was very clean and organized and Mike was very friendly and gave me some information on his technique of applying a tint to a vehicle. This is great because you shouldn't just drop off your car and not know what is going to happen to it. Plus his years in the business sold me which was reflective in his knowledge of his work. Overall, I was highly satisfied with the service I received. I have already started recommending his business to friends and family! Know that Mike likes to see your vehicle first before discussing any pricing. Don't hesitate to take your business here for 1 second!

Very Professional

By lghart - May 3, 2009

We have known this company for the last 10 years. Excellent work, quality of his tinting product and quality of skill. Our 2 cars from ten years ago stayed beautiful. We upgraded cars recently and Mike even remembered us after all that time. We have referred many people to this company and they have always been pleased. Mike is very personable and honest. Thanks for your good service and professionalism.

PROFESSIONAL JOB - 100% RECOMMEND!!!!!!!!!

By rmovist - Apr 27, 2009

MIKE IS VERY CONSERNED ABOUT THE QUALITY OF HIS WORK. IT IS ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING. BAR NONE, IT IS THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN. HE CARES ABOUT QUALITY, WHICH IS HARD TO FIND THESE DAYS. I WOULD RECOMMEND HIM TO ANYBODY THAT WANTS A PROFESSIONAL JOB DONE IN A TIMELY MANNER. DEFINATELY ONE OF A KIND HERE FOLKS. DONT MISS OUT!!!!! THANKS AGAIN MIKE!! ROY

Cool Window Tinting - MIKE IS THE BEST...

By Ziggy - Apr 8, 2009

Like anyone who wants to get their windows tinted, I looked around online to see who had the best reviews, and who's prices were reasonable, after checking out Cool Window Tinting off of Steilacoom Blvd, I decided to go down to the store to get a quote on getting my drivers side window and pass. window tinted on my Camaro. First off Mike greeted me with a smile and asked how he could help. I explained, he looked at my car, and said we could do it right now for a great price so I said ok. I could have just sat there and waited on him to finish but since I'ma car guy and am in the business I wanted to help. so together we tore off the old tint, prepared the new stuff and just chit chatted back and forth, He is such a nice guy and explained to me he has been doing this for over 15 years, and all the pictures of customers cars on the wall proved that to be very true. Together we finished in less than 75 min. When we were done, the tint came out better than i thought it would and he gave me an amazing deal for it. Now everyone has to remember that you get what you pay for!! If you go with the cheapest out there - thats what you will get!! his prices were very competitive and that fact that he let me help, and how time flew by as we were just shootin the sh*t and talkin, was great. And as i was leaving, he also gave me an extra coupon he had for a free oil change! If you need to get your windows tinted... GO TO MIKE AT COOL WINDOW TINTING! And, he even called me the very next day to tell me to make sure my car was in the sun (it was very warm and sunny out) as it would help it cure and set faster! Now that is going ABOVE AND BEYOND. I guarantee no one else anywhere would do THAT!

awesome shop A+++++++

By mes726 - Apr 8, 2009

You Get What You Pay For

By ed - Apr 4, 2009

I've had several of my cars and trucks tinted by Mike @ Cool Window Tinting. All have been professionally done and I was pleased with his work. I referred several friends and neighbors that have also been satisfied. Just today, two friends working on my neighbors house came over to me while I had the garage open and asked me who did the tinting on my vehicles. They were impressed with quality and fine detail. Mike's prices are resonable for the quality of the tint that will last for years. Don't like his prices, go somewhere else get that tint you see all around town that bubbles and has air pockets. Those people got exactly what they paid for, a shotty job at a cheap price. I proudly have the cool window emblems displayed on my vehicles, because I want people to know where to get a good quality tint job and believe me they do ask.

Amazing work.....

By zincblurr - Mar 29, 2009

Please disregard the negative reviews below from the lazy morons that don't understand how customer service works. Mike does EXCELLENT work and won't necessarily quote a price over the phone simply because every vehicle is different. You wouldn't want an over the phone estimate from a body shop after you get into an accident, would you? Not all tint jobs are created equal. Very few installers will take the time to remove your door panels to ensure that the tint never comes off. He treated my truck as if it was his own and I am VERY satisfied with the results. I had originally tried to save a few bucks by taking my truck to the lowest bidder, and I ended up very disappointed. The headliner was damaged in my brand-new $50k truck, not to mention that lint was left behind the tint film tha left bubbles behind. Bottom line: you get what you pay for. While Mike might not have the absolute lowest price in town, the differnence in the level of craftsmanship ...

Awesome Work, Beautiful shop!

By Michael - Mar 27, 2009

I had my car tinted at cool window tinting and have been back for another one of my vehicles. The best window tint work in town at a fair price. You pay for the quality and personal service and his shop is immaculate. I would refer him to anyone.

Amazing work and customer service

By JASON - Mar 26, 2009

Mike was very professional. Two years ago I had a car done by him and he did such an amazing job I sent all my friends to him and I just bought a new car and took that car to him as well. I got nothing but professionalism I recommend Cool Window Tinting to any person who wants top notch tinting. But instead of being "that guy" over the phone you need to bring your car in so he can see the make and model in order to do a accurate quote.

Cool Window Tinting

By ams62 - Mar 24, 2009

Mike is a great guy. I went by his shop Thursday 19 Mar 09. He was so pleasant to talk to. He bent over backward to explain the quallity of work he does. His shop was really neat and clean. I dropped the car off yesterday and when I picked up the car that afternoon I was so pleased with what Mike had done. His work is top notch. I recommend Mike to anyone that wants good work done. The reason why he doesn't want to give you a quote over the phone is because he needs to see what type of car you have. Kudos to Mike.....Job well done......... Get your window tinted by Mike. You won't regret it....

100% Best tinting in the area!

By nwoodh - Feb 19, 2009

If you want your windows tinted with quality tint, and want them to keep looking good for a long, long time- you absolutely have to go see Mike. I didn't know where to go to have my husbands windows tinted for him while he was away- so I fell back to google and found this place. I called and- yes, like the other reviews say he isn't apt to give an estimate over the phone.. but if you notice, any car/auto place thats worth its salt won't give you one either! The reason is simple, and he EXPLAINS to you that he would much rather see you in person, and look at your car and talk to you one-on-one before giving you a price. Makes sense to me! Anyway, I went on down to the shop which is THE cleanest shop I've ever been in- and talked to him about my windows. He answered every question I had before I even had to ask it. He then proceeded to do such an amazing job. My husbands car is a trans am- that back window is so curved, yet it is FLAWLESS. His attention to detail and need for perfection guaruntees that his work will never disappoint. Also, his price was very reasonable. All around, like I said, I am 100% satisfied!

Excellent Top of The Line Work,...

By wizardnation - Jan 8, 2009

The title says it all. The tinting on my vehicle looks great. I would not go any other tinting place, especially those half assing chinese. Mike takes the door panels off and tints the little area of the window that you can't see when it's rolled up. This ensures that your tint never peels or bubbles. He also has a warranty. I highly reccomend you go in and get an estimate or at least watch the video he has that will explain the outstanding quality. You'll see.

HIGHLY recommend.
