Tints in MD

Well, I had to try it. I had to DIY tints . I can say that it is truly a horrendous thing to try and do. In anycase, I was wondering what reputable tint places are in MD. I'm in Mount Rainier in MD. Anyways, I did go to TWO tint shops. Both have warranty dealios but one says 140 w/lifetime and the other says 150/for 5 years ($10 more for lifetime warranty). I'd shoot for 140 but if there is CHEAPER AND BETTER than I'm all ears. I'm lazy at going FAR but if it's worth it, then point the way! and yes, the tints are off... The glass is clean and no sign of any attempt to tint (even though I kinda wanna try again )

P.S. Both tint shops were off of Bladensburg Rd. The first was across the Murray's and Autozone and the next one was further down, just passing Quincy St. (for all you MD'ers around the way)

i used Gila. They have the anti-scratch, one that cuts down the heat and one for the ultra voilet rays so it doesn't fade the interior. Cost is about $13 to $16 bucks and it's a 2 ft. by 6 ft. roll.

mine actually look kind of blueish. I got all the tools now i just need to get some more tint. I got a couple of my relatives cars lined up to do for extra practice. I wanna do a design for my windows but thats gonna take some precise work. I was thinking black and yellow designs. I saw the blue tint and it's way too light for the color of my car.
