The premier window tint destination in the capital district
Very satisfied with the work they did very professional laid-back cool individuals are very fast with their their craft thank you Tint star.
did the peel deal where i got tints removed and would get them added after inspection. had an accident where that car was totaled and asked for a partial refund or tints on my new car (once purchased) since i paid for the peel deal and was told no. there’s no verbiage on their site about refunds and i paid for a service that was essentially not completed and was refused any kind of solution. horrible customer service.
This is my third time getting my windows tinted with TintStar. Great service and very accommodating.
I needed a last minute appointment to get my tint done and saw this place had an open availability. Morning of my appointment I had some car problems and called to see if I could come in 15 minutes later than my scheduled time… they were extremely accommodating and when I arrived everything at the front desk was quick and they got straight to work. Customer service was amazing and my tint looks great, I couldn’t be any happier!
Tint Star has been my go to for car tinting ever since they opened, and they’ve never let me down! Their attention to detail and commitment to quality is unmatched. Over the years, they’ve tinted multiple cars for me, and each time the results are flawless. The staff is professional, friendly, and always goes the extra mile to ensure customer satisfaction. If you’re looking for high quality work and a team that genuinely cares, TintStar is the place to go. Five stars, without a doubt!
Got my 2024 Blazer EV tinted today. Quick and easy process and it came out great!
Wonderful service and great product. The staff was punctual, friendly, professional and insightful. They helped me choose my tints and were very helpful and patient as I made up my mind. The service was so fast I was shocked; about thirty minutes maybe for my front windows. Very affordable and they were also very understanding when I decided to cancel having my windshield tinted and promptly refunded me the difference. I had a great experience getting my windows tinted here and recommend everyone else try them too.
Brought them my truck around 10:30am and they called at 11:15am and said it was done. It’s a 2019 Ram Crew Cab Big Horn. Went and picked it up and was very happy with results. There’s on minor issue on the sun strip which I fixed when I got home, but other than that it was a job well done. This is the 4th vehicle I have had tint star do for me. Prices are not to bad. Staff was friendly and helpful.
Great job
Very nice and informative people. Will work with you too. Awesome place
My daughter had a appointment today in they didn t even know she had a appointment we got here at 11:40 no one was here call the person said they are in Clifton park they said they didn t know she had a appointment so the guy got here at 12:22 that so unprofessional the lady that made the appointment the guy in Clifton park said that it wasn t in there system so if we didn t call the place in just wait longer no one would have show up I try to reach out to the owner but no one called me back poor customer service paying over 3 in change in had to wait poor customer service how she didn t let them know that sad business have given her 300 total paid more
i would recommend going here if you want your money stolen from you.
Told me the price was under 350 after tax then I got a text saying they wanted more than $500. That is crazy. Definitely not spending my money here.
Great job looks awesome
Great service ! The completed all 5 windows under an hour and I am extremely happy with the results. Thank you !
Had my 2012 Jetta Se tinted at the Clifton park location, after about 4-5 days I noticed the air bubbles were getting worse. Called up and they made me another appointment to have everything replaced at the Albany location. it s been a few weeks now and I noticed there s A few spots that have some bubbles, but it s an older car and I get some cars are harder to tint than others. I will say i definitely recommend tint star! They are more than willing to fix any mistakes that might pop up. The employees were all very professional and more than willing to fix the mistakes.
Great people and awesome to do business with
Take time and very professional
Fast and professional.
Great service and ceramic tint is keeping the sun out from my vehicle! 10/10 results. Will come back for my next vehicle.
Very professional and quick! The peel deal is a great deal
Great and quick service
Friendly professional atmosphere. They did a quick, high quality job. Thank you !
Very friendly and fast
I scheduled an 11am appointment for window tinting on my BMW 750 and was told on the phone it was $299. Drove an hour there and was told it was 12pm when I arrived, so I waited for an hour and when it was time I was told it was now $399.99. THIS IS A BAIT AND SWITCH. I left and would not recommend their service to anyone. Actually I found out its illegal for companies to tint windows in the state of NY. I will be contacting the proper authorities to notify them of bait and switch practice and they are window tinting.
Very pleased Ive been using thus business for years very professional
It was an amazing experience they were very professional
My daughter brought her vehicle there last year to have her windows tinted. She asked them to make sure they were legal. One year later, her car wont pass inspection because the tint is too dark for NYS. I called today to ask what they recommend. The person that answered asked what type of car she has. When I told them it was a Honda Civic, he told me that in NY that tint is illegal on sedans and coups and that she would have to come back in, pay $165 plus tax and they would remove the tint so it would pass. To confirm I understood him clearly, I asked, so you illegally tint windows knowing they wont pass inspection then charge to have it removed? He said yes. Its at the owners discretion and we tell this to our customers. Completely taking advantage of people, primarily young people. Would not recommend.
Scheduled an appointment to have my car tented. They waited two hours before the appointment to tell me that they don t accept cash.
I ve gotten three cars tinted at tint star and I can t say enough good things.Everyone I encountered was super friendly and knowledgeable especially Mike. Mike made the process absolutely seamless & helped to guide me in making the right choice on what percentages to chose. If you need a tint job choose tint star !
I absolutely love coming here to get my cars tinted. The staff are so friendly and accommodating. Mike, especially was very helpful in matching my factory tints. I wouldn t go anywhere else!
Excellent experience both guys did me justice!!
they do a great job. It s just very expensive I wouldn t care so much if around inspection time they wouldn t charge you so much just to take them off and put them back on. It s literally like 200 bucks. And that s just for like two windows smh
great shop, the boys are always on top of it when I come in for my annual peel deal!
Good
One of the best tint shop in Carrollton I recommend this place Robert is a great guy
Tintstar is just that, tintstar haha. I wanted ceramic tint on my already tinted windows. They knocked it out in an hour and even consulted me during the process on one specific thing. Go here!
Best in the business. Great customer service and a job well done!
They are amazing
Super nice staff and quality work. Wouldn t go anywhere else to get tint done.
The best in the city
100% recommend! Great experience with TintStar every time I require their services!
Service was professional and quick! Tint service on my boyfriend s truck came out clean and perfect! Thank you!
I had 2 vehicles tinted here last week and both experiences I ve had are great quick service. I was literally in an out in 15 minutes for my truck and 30ish minutes for suv. Will definitely recommend them to anyone I know needing tint.
Service was amazing they went above and beyond
Super quick service and the tint looks amazing! Thank you!
Does an excellent job !!!!
I ve been coming to tint star for multiple years now, any car I buy, they tint. They ve always done an immaculate job. Extremely professional and educated on their products. I recently had a hard time picking out what percent I wanted, so they took the time to explain every detail and what it might look like vs what I ve had in the past. Very patient and didn t feel rushed! 15/10
Awesome job!!
Ive been to the rest, these people are the best.
Straight pros!
Great and quick service
Always quick and reliable. Great customer service and easy process. Repeat customer for all vehicles
Great service and they do wonderful work definitely recommend
They did a great job, very quickly and were very accomodating along the way. Will definitely recommend them in the future.
Windows came out great!
Got my panoramic sunroof tinted here with ceramic tint. A little put off when I noticed that the tint did not reach the front and back part of the glass as you can see in the pictures. When I questioned it, they said that it would peel otherwise. Not sure if I believe that since I have had this done on 2 other vehicles at Tint World and the glass was fully covered and never peeled. Unfortunately they closed so I decided on tint star based on other reviews. It just doesnt look right.
Impressed with the outcome great work in a reasonable amount of time
Lady who answered the phone today was not friendly at all and seemed as if she didn t want to answer my questions. Found a better supplier.
Best in the 518 always got my tints looking clean sleek & smooth definitely recommend
They Were so kind and professional!
Tint came put great, gave me a few tips on how to keep the looking good and offered free replacement if white spots came up in the windows. Overall very happy with the time it took to complete and the final outcome. Definetely recommend.
Great guys, I wish I could rate a 5 star if I hadn t had to go back and forth to get tint corrections but overall they were willing to help and showed great customer service skills.
I used you guys multiple times. I got my BMW tinted with them, all for sides, front & rear windshield, and the sun-strip and I also did the peel deal with them and every time I had a great experience. I recommended many people to them and everyone who went thanked me for recommending them. Great shop and great guys.
Outstanding service and excellent work!
Awesome experience, super fast, very professional, will be back!
Requested quote through facebook, as the facebook page says you can do and was left on read; not totally sure why. Having my tints and wrap done elsewhere!
1. Overpriced: 2 fronts cost $150. 2. The location of this place is hard for customers to find any parking and we are not allowed to enter even though we have an appointment. 3. Service is zero star if I could rate. The lady is impatient and not willing to help. 4. The process is inefficient. Although we arrived at the appointment time, we were not allowed to enter. Instead, they impatiently asked us to find a parking somewhere nearby. Again its super hard to find a parking spot near central Ave. And I cant imagine even if we were able to find a parking and when it would be our turn to get tint done. Hence, I believe the process would be much longer than they told us. Overall, NOT RECOMMEND
Very fast and convenient! Had them do 5% on an entire 22 4Runner, with a sun strip, and there is not one bubble or scratch in the tint. They were able to go around the rear defroster lines and perfectly match the 5% over the whole truck, even with the factory tint in the back.
Place was very professional. Staff is very friendly and tint job is fantastic! Without doubt best tint shop in the area!
Great staff, they stand by their work. I will be trusting them will all my cars!
Good quality service!
I was really impressed by the professionalism and timeliness of the work done on my car. Totally satisfied with the finished product. Ill def come back if I ever need anything else and will refer friends. Thanks guys!
Second car tinted, no issues scheduling, questions always answered, and easy pickup. Highly recommend. Will go back again.
The guys at Tint Stars were top notch! I was in and out in under an hour and half for a full tint(not windshield) of my 2016 Subaru Impreza. They were friendly and professional! This was a recommendation from a friend who had their car tinted from them, and I most certainly would recommend mine!
If you want your ride Tinted, then this is the place to go. Friendly, professional, always great to work with. Customer for life.
Great place to go if youre looking for profound inexperience but want to pay professional prices. If youre expecting your neighbors high school kids who thought tinting cars was cool and wanted to see how many bubbles and hairs they could get away with putting in the tint then this is the place for you. Ive been there 3 times now as they offer a lifetime warranty. What they wont tell you is each time you go there, the job will take longer and look worse, essentially nullifying the purpose of the warranty. While in the lobby my third time, I legitimately heard the technician who was screening phone calls recommend the competition for a couple of basic cars potential customers were looking to have tinted as those cars are beyond the experience level of our technicians and we recommend Tint King or Infamous Graphics. The difficult cars in question to tint? A GTI and a Corvette. So moral of the story, go anywhere but here if youre looking for a tint job without bubbles, hairs, trapped water, or windows tinted to the same size as the sheet of tint being used. OH! Almost forgot to mention, you better have time carved out to give your vehicle a thorough wash afterwards as it will leave their garage covered in the pasty adhesive they use for the tint application. Solid F on all fronts. I have already had the pleasure of deterring multiple people from doing business with this joke of an establishment.
The tint job itself was acceptable, however afterwords there was a pattern of scratches on the hood that I could only make sense were from scissors or some other cutting instrument used for the film. The vehicle was a brand new BMW X5 picked up from the dealer the day prior, so am unable to pin these scratches on anything else. Upon initial contact with the owner he was confident they werent responsible, going as far as offering to review and send me video footage from when my vehicle was in the shop, however when it came to actually sending me the footage he claimed the file was too large and was unable or unwilling to send me anything. Suspicious to say the least. No other means for me to review the footage was offered. If youre looking for a decent tint job at the expense of mysterious scratches on your car this is the place for you, otherwise I would go elsewhere.
Great people
My car looks awesome. Good staff and was only there for hour!
No answer
They dye well
Anytime I want to tint my car the only place I have ever taken my cars is Tint Star! They have tinted every vehicle I have owned for the past 7 years! Rob is great and the staff is very accommodating and professional. I see no need to go anywhere else. Nobody s perfect but if a mistake is made they bend over backwards to make it right! Thanks guys for always being above reproach!
Showed up to my appointment slightly early. Was greeted as soon as i entered, and after confirming who i was, my car was promptly pulled around back. I unfortunately had to wait for it, and they had my car completed in about 45 minutes when i was expecting a two hour wait. They even installed my rear window spoiler for me too, and it looks perfect. Only issue, is two slight defects i found, that i will have to bring back to have looked at. Other than that, i couldnt have asked for a better experience at Tint Star. Id recommend anybody looking to have tinting done to contact them.
Reasonably priced. Professional staff, owner was more than willing to answer all questions. Fast service, quality film and a great job!
Tint star does some great work. The peel deal is very convenient.
I highly recommend this place if you looking to tint your vehicle, they do the best work I ve brought 2 of my cars here and they ve came out awesome!!
I have brought 3 of my vehicles to tint star they are top notch in every area. They are quick they are very polite and they do above and beyond work. If you are looking for a place for Tint Coatings Detailing I highly recommend Tint Star. I will definitely be back!
Tint star is the best very professional I couldnt ask for a better service this was a few years ago, even after have the tint for so long I had to get it removed free of charge
This place is honestly the best... service and quality work
A+ experience and A+ service! Had my car back the same day! Don t waste your time by going anywhere else!
TintStar goes above and beyond to deliver a world class experience. I highly recommend!
I had my windows done on my TRD 4Runner and they came out flawless. There s no other tint shop that I trust in the 518. Tintstar is the go-to.
Great team and service.
Couldnt of asked for a better tint job. Previously went to tint world and the job was horrible. These guys at tint star were extremely nice and the tint looks amazing!!!! Would never go anywheres else now.
Amazing work, great customer service, great prices, best warranty. What more could you ask for?
The appearance was nice on my vehicle. Even when it started peeling after two weeks they fixed it without any hassles.
Fast and efficient. Came in for the back to school special. Caught a great price, fairly nice waiting room to sit in and the customer service was on point as well
Always friendly and the final product is done well. Recommend the peel deal during inspection time
Great business and thank you for getting all of our company s trucks shaded from the sun with clean applied tinted glass. #MaidMen
Highly recommend!
Great service, great prices, great team.
Simply the best. Professional. Knowledgeable. Extremely courteous. And the work is top of the line. I wouldnt take my car anywhere else.

Shout out to the team at Tint Star in Albany! Hooked me up with The peal deal and was super fast and efficient and easy to appoint with! Ill continue all future business there and will always reccomend!! Thanks again guys!
Awesome place tint looks great I never got the guys name that did my windows but he was very professional and helpful will definitely be going back thank you tint star
Tint star is the place to go if you want tints on your vehicle. Now they have what they call a peel deal, where you have them tint your vehicle and when its time for your inspection they will remove it and reinstall for a fair price, you are not going to find another place that will give you such a deal. All my vehicls had been tint by them and their work is awesome you dont believe me ask around.
Rob and his staff did a fantastic job detailing my vehicle today. I dropped it off in the morning, and picked it up right at 4pm. They exceeded my expectations, and the attention to detail was precise. It s the best detail my car has had since owning it (6 years).
Been coming here for years! Never any problems with tint application. Always fast and professional!
Guys had me in and out second year in the row best prices best quality and tint holds up no bumps or bubbles highly recommend them for window tint
Best place in upstate ny , recommend to anyone looking to hook there ride up
Hands down the best place to have your windows tinted in the 518! Everything was done on time and done well! If your looking for quality tints this is where you want to go !
Ive been dealing with this shop for a few years now and theyve done great work! I cant complain about anything; from tints to lighting, rims/tires and vinyl work theyve done it all for a reasonable price and the quality is grade a without a doubt. Rob is highly personable and willing to work with customers as questions and concerns arise. Definitely not your regular tint shop, best one in the capital region for sure!
Great shop great tints summer is coming stop in for all your detail and tint needs
Great work, retint program great for annual inspection
Rob and his staff are great! I brought my Porsche in for a clear bra removal, and a buff.. when I got it back I was amazed at how she shined! Always a smile with their service, and fair prices. Definitely going back.
Got my headlights restored. They look fantastic! Rob and his staff are really nice people, they work hard & fast, and best yet, their excellent customer service makes you feel right at home. Highly recommended.
Amazing quality tint and fast service. My car is absolutely perfect not a single bubble. Definitely bringing every car i own back there. Customer service is 10/10 and very informative about tint laws and tinting in general. They laser cut the tint so there s no razor blades on your window like most places. Definitely beyond satisfied with the way my car looks and i will recommend this shop to anybody looking to tint their vehicle.. PS: get the glass cleaner it s ammonia free so your tint won t turn purple and it also works as an amazing all purpose cleaner. Overall 12/10!
Having been a 10 year customer of tint star, Ive watched the place go through a lot of changes to the shop. The last few years, the staff has been nothing but top notch. The guy that runs the joint will literally drop what hes doing to answer a question or right a wrong. 10/10
They did a great job and were very nice.
Had an 11:30 appointment arrived early and was greeted by the awesome staff. They took my truck in immediately and got to work. I m a former Tint World customer and will never go back. My last truck they did a sub par job and chalked it up to it has to cure needless to say it never cured . Thank you Tint Star!!
Very knowledgeable, professional and courteous
Had my car tinted and blacked out. Convenient place to go
I wouldnt bring my cars anywhere else, great guys, great shop in Albany and I love hanging out with the dog while I wait
I had my 99 Vw Jetta tinted in 2008 and people all across the country always ask me where I got my tint done. It has been in extreme California desert heat for 3 years and still looks as good as the day it was installed (not a single bubble or mark). It is a shame that NYS is creating a tough environment for small businesses like Tint Star by cracking down on window tint.
Horrible people with horrible quality products. Has complete morons working for him. Whoever drives the Honda civic was rude and inconsiderate. More worried about his cell phone. And I also worried if he was stealing from my car. You will NEVER GO HERE if you know anything about cars
They changed the price of the service multiple times from the time of the call to schedule the appointment throughout the entire service. They were unable to hold my first appointment which was time constrained and they were aware at time of scheduling and which I was on time for. They were messy. They left glue all over my car and streaks all over my windows.
My tints were hand cut.. and that requires skill. Id much rather my tints be hand cut than computer cut. Rob and the guys stand by their work and will redo your tints if they bubble or discolor.
They just exceeded my expectations. Very professional staff, willing to answer all questions and or concerns. Reasonably priced tint for top of the line quality, not to mention the speedy and precise work, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Great service and very fast. Got my car tinted here in April of last year and Im very pleased with the service Tint Star provided. I also bought a set of new tires and wheels which were in perfect condition for a price I wouldnt be able to find elsewhere. Highly recommend this business!
Great prices and friendly staff. They are great at getting you in and out fast!
Had an awful stain on the headliner of my car from a frozen/exploded can of ginger ale. Was told by several other shops they didnt want to do it. Tint-Star came through and removed the stain no questions asked in under 2 hours! The staff is professional, efficient and very knowledgeable about their products and services.
friendly service and awesome tint job!
Ive brought 4 of my own cars over the years and referred several of my friends as well. Quick and easy, in and out. There are so many different kinds of tint depending on what you are looking for. Its a very upbeat place with the best prices Ive seen. Ill save you the trouble of shopping around. This is it.
The owner and staff are knowledgable about all the products and the service is the best! Everything is done on time and for a fair price. Would recommend to anyone I know looking to get their windows tinted!
Have had several things done there and the quality of work and staff is excellent. Be it tint, tires and wheels, or audio these guys know there stuff!
Awesome customer service!!! Rob the owner and his staff are at the top of their game!!! Would recommend to stop and check them out!!
The level of professionalism is second to none. Ive had many of my personal vehicles customized by them, and referred numerous friends to do the same. High quality work, and a great staff. Highly recommend.
Not only can you get tints done, but I got a car starter installed. Best decision I ever made for these cold winter months. Tiny Stars employees were very professional and got the job done quickly!
The guys are professional, polite and best of all quick! I have had several various services done there and each one has exceeded my expectations - they truly enjoy what the do and it shows in their work!
quick, fast professional......lots of real expertise in that shop.....seasoned employees, taught me more than I thought I already knew
I dont know about you but Im in my car all the time. The same way I like to look good in what I wear, I want my car to have the same feeling. Once you walk into the shop you are automatically greeted with customer service and the attention to detail is bar none. Take pride in your ride and allow Tint Star to make it happen!
Hands down best place around to get your car taken care of from window tint to wheels. They roll out the red carpet every time I need something. Lowest prices around with highest quality of work, thats hard to find. Keep it up!
10 out of 10 customer service. The work they do is great, but what really makes the difference is the passion they have for their work. They get as much joy as you do out of bringing your car to the next level.
I would recommend tint star to a friend their work is good and they finish the job In timely manner.
Vary clean establishment and high quality tint! A great staff that helps get you exactly what you want for that amazing finish to your vehicle. Will deffinantly have your vehicle leaving in style. Vary Impressed with the work they do here, I highly recommend this place if your looking for the perfect tint, wheels etc. By far the best place around and reasonable prices!
The service here was great and the guys are all friendly and professional. I came in to get new tires put on and I was in and out of there in no time. Ive also had some work done in the past and its always great work!
I highly recommend this place! Tint Star did an amazing job on my windows. Months ago I went to a different place and the tint peeled off just a couple weeks after. They also did my LED lighting which I was very impressed with! Anyone that knows me knows I love my car and Tint Star is the ONLY place I trust!
Incredible customer service aswell as clean work , if you need tents this is your place to go!
Very nice business. Staff is knowledgeable and friendly. Would recommend them for any tinting or detailing.
Had both my trucks done through tintstar very cheap prices better than any other Ive ever seen they do a very good job I definitely recommend anybody else go to tintstar and Im looking forward to having future work done
I went to tintstar last week to get my windows done. A guy named John really helped me out. My windows look amazing and he seemed to really know what he was talking about. This was my first tint job and I will definately be comin back for any of my future vehicles. Thanks again and keep up the amazing work!
Fast friendly, and they did a great job.
I had a great experience with this company. They did the work quick and well. I have recommended it to my friends and family!
I loved the service at Tint Star. My remote starter was installed quickly, professionally and at the price quoted. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, and the shop was tidy. I would fully recommend Tint Star!
By far the best place in town to get all your aftermarket needs and wants taken care of. I would not go anywhere else for anything!!! One stop shop that has it all!!!
I got my car tinted by a young friendly man who did an absolute wonderful job on my car and it was so quick! I highly recommend tint star
This is the place for window tint in the Albany area!!! After calling around to different tint shops, I decided to go to Tint Star. They quoted the best price & Told me it would only take an hour or so. My last 3 tint jobs at other placed in the area have been mediocre at best, so I figured I would try them out this time. The guy who tinted my car did an outstanding job & was very quick. While I was there I asked the salesman about a problem I was having with my alarm. He went out and took a look at it. He quickly figured out the problem & actually fixed it free of charge (even though I did not get the alarm from them)!! Great customer service, and a great tint job. I will never go any place else!!
Recently got my new car tinted at Tint Star & it looks amazing! All of the employees & owner are very helpful & knowledgeable about the product lines they offer. Prices & customer service are great! I will definitely be returning in the future.
