Testimonials

I don’t really like dissing the competition, but it’s at the point now that we weekly get people coming to us with their horror stories and  bad experiences of our competition. Just before December 2011, Alex came on a 4 day tinting course, he’d been to see the competition (which I positively encourage, do your research. Our door is always open) and they’d tried to pressurise him into signing up for a “remapping” business he wasn‘t interested in. I think they even sent him an invoice for the equipment he hadn‘t ordered. This is so wrong, Alex is a lovely lad, only young and to be taken advantage of like that is  DISGRACEFUL!! People need to know and be warned that this stuff goes on...
Luckily Alex then came to see us soon after, we helped him, he saved up a bit more and then came on our course. He loved it, he’s happy and we look forward to working with him. 

We also helped  Paul H in November, he’d been on a tinting course the previous year with the same people, and turned up to find their “highly experienced” trainer had actually only been doing it for a month!!!  Then, NO BACK UP. He approached us asking if we could help him, and we’ve now spent a day with him and he’s heat shrinking a lot quicker and easier, plus he’s now much happier and doing quick, clean installs...

Oh and don’t be fooled for 1 minute into thinking they have the backing of the monitoring bodies they’ve got the logo’s for on their site. They are NOT APPROVED BY ANYONE. I don’t actually know how they get away with that bit. Just ask them to prove the connection.

I’ve got SO many stories like this.

PLEASE, PLEASE, DO YOU RESEARCH.  Sorry to go on but it’s giving our industry a bad name. As previously mentioned, I love this business and it’s being brought into disrepute by a few bad apples.

WE’RE NOT GOING TO PRESSURE YOU INTO DOING OUR COURSE. WE DON’T NEED TO. TAKE YOUR TIME, DO YOUR RESEARCH, MAKE UP YOUR OWN MIND AND HOPEFULLY WE’LL SEE YOU SOON.

Please take the time to read through just a small sample of our testimonials below. These are exactly how they come to me, (no silly videos here, is it me or are those all the same? Maybe it’s a script? )

You will also see that WE HAVE TAUGHT OUR COMPETITORS!

So come to us and Get Taught By The Teacher and Not The Pupil!

"anyone is wanting to start auto tinting this is the course to do"

Hello Tim. Thanks for a great auto tint course. If anyone is wanting to start auto tinting this is the course to do. After looking at sites about auto tinting i kept on going back to Tims site and finally got in touch with Tim and i am pleased i did. From the first minute i spoke to Tim i knew this was the course to take.  Tim put me at ease. There was no pressure off him, he answered all my questions i wanted to know so i booked the course and i was not let down.

There is no classrooms. It is one to one training EXCELLENT.  Tim knows so much about the tinting industry. This is the course to come to even the griffin pub is so friendly i could go on and on. Don't waste your time looking any where else believe me this is the one.

Ps thanks tim for information and help i'n helping me set up my own unit hope to see you soon.

Paul (Glareguard)  November 2011

TIMS REPLY:  Cheers for that Paul. Paul had previously been a flat glass tinter for the last 15 years and decided to move into automotive.  We train lots of flat glass guys and they've all gone on to be very successful. So book yourself onto the course that the professionals choose!!!

Tinting & wrapping!

Hiya Tim, Just wanted to thank you and John for a brilliant, if knackering week. (tinting & wrapping). The course far exceeded my expectations. All going well, "PRIMO-TINTS" will be up and running as soon as the building work on the garage is completed. I have registered on the forum and plan on making it to the meeting in November.

Thanks again, Ian. September 2011

"very impressed with the amount of practice time that we had..."

After several years of bring stuck in the same role I decided to do something different and as I had always wanted to work with cars and as I was to old to retrain as a mechanic, tinting I thought was the way to go. After hours of scouring the Internet I kept going back to the ULTIMATE TINTING website, and then after speaking to Tim I decided it was the right choice and signed up for the course. The course is very indepth and covers much more than I thought.  I was very impressed with the amount of practice time that we had over the week which covered various senarios on cars and how to also tint flat glass.  Tim is an excellent trainer with patience for the most menial questions we had/have. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who wants to start their tinting career. Hope this is of some help.

Regards Mark. August 2011

"Hes always there to answer my questions how ever silly..."

After running a valeting company for some time and looking for some way to make more money related to my business, i got to thinking what i could do, and after been asked if i did tinting by some customers i thought, well maybe i could teach myself and then i thought again as i researched it it didn't look easy so looking around at courses. Well there's plenty to look at out there but i kept comming back to the Tint School at Ultimate Tinting. Its not the cheepst but it looked like the kind of course and organisation i was looking for, and i looked at a lot. Probably everything available on the net. i even studyed everything on u tube there was to look at. and still i was sold in Tim's site. So i said why not and commited my self to a trip to Wales and booked a course at the tint school.

I did the training with Tim, he's a really good teacher and yes he will make you practice over and over again and if you dont get it right, he will take the time to explane why. but it works just follow his way of doing things and you will get it. its all about practice and you never stop learning.

Im writing this six months after i did the course and i can tell you from the last six months i have tinted a lot of cars. Tim taught me very well. it dosent mean im an expert at all . in fact if I'm need to know anything i buzz him on the phone. Hes always there to answer my questions how ever silly they might be . but theres also the forum to go to, which is very useful and free, and his excellent web site. you will have days where you start to pull your hair out . but you learn by it all the more.

Six months on im starting to do flat glass as well . ive done work for Tetly tea , Tarter drink corp and many main dealers too. as well as many very happy private customers. i had to work at it but i love what i do . im still valet cars but tinting is now becoming my main buissines.

I went back recently and had a really good day at on of Tims meetings a kind of installers. This is one of the very best things, this was free and i learnt so much more, as well as meeting other installers it means your part of a national team you can rely on.

Its your money go where you like, but i made my choice and well you can see from this testimonial im really happy. Thanks Tim, good job .      

Simon Harper. Teeside tinting . March 2011

"...i wasted a whole lot of time and money trying to teach myself..."

I currently work in our family business  that is car valeting and auto body repairs, when the recession kicked in i felt we needed to keep on our toes so i looked into something that could enchance our services. i decided to look into the automotive tinting.  basically i wasted a whole lot of time and money trying to teach myself buying dvds online ebooks running upquite a large bill and after that i was no further, i decided enough was enough and researched training courses that was close to me i found a few but out of them all tims tint school seemed the  most professional and his people skills was second to none, within the 3 days i found out tips and tricks of the trade that money simply could not buy. i recommend  the tint school to anyone who is serious about  learning this skill properly, dont waste your time with anyone else .

"...came away knowing I could do this on my own..."

When I decided that window tinting was the way forward for me, I knew very little about it so when searching for advice and training it was of utmost importance to me that my training was professional, understandable and most importantly in-depth.

Having spoken to others in the same field, when I first spoke with Tim I came away thinking here was someone who was communicating on my level and who I felt I would gain most from.

The training course was confidence giving and hands on, so I came away knowing I could do this on my own but also that if I needed it I had Tim's experience on the other end of the phone.

Tom Dickerson, Independent Tracking, April 2011

"Tim collected me from the airport and we got started straight away"

I chose to do this course with tint school as I had spoke to Tim months before hand and he was always very helpful, I got back in touch with Tim at the start of this year and chose the three day automotive tint course as advised by Tim.

Once I arrived Tim collected me from the airport and we got started straight away. He is always there to help you throughout every stage and trust me you can ask him anything and he will have the answer.
I would always recommend Tim to anyone and to do his courses as they are all 1 to 1 no groups. The knowledge training and advice I got from Tim was amazing and even still now he will ring to see how I am getting on and any silly questions I may have he will still answer.

I have not only learnt from the best guy out there but also made a great true helpful friend. Thanks Tim

James Palmer, Isle of Man, May 2011

"Very Satisfied"

I was very satisfied with Ultimate Tinting's training course. The 3-day course is totally one-to-one and very hands on. Tim really knows his tinting and seems to enjoy passing on his expertise. I have now been tinting solo for a couple of months and when I have a problem Tim is always the other end of a phone call and always happy to help. I would recommend this course to anyone planning on a potentially lucrative career in tinting and I urge people not to compromise for a cheaper course.

Tims response:

Thanks David, thats very kind, what  are you doing with yourself these days? 

"at night I had access to tims workshop to practice on my own which was great"

Hi tim
 
I would like to personally thank you for your all your help, reassurance, the advice & expertise skills shown on your window tinting course.
 
For those reading this: Ii decided to add window tinting as an extra to my graphic signmaking business, ive been working at signs / vinyls for almost twenty years & I learned alot from this course, & it  was a big help to even cleaning preparation for sign panels etc which I thought I had mastered.
 
I googled "window tinting courses" tim was the first person I contacted, as above on our telephone calls he reassured me that if I listened , practiced & if Ii was determined I should be able to tint before I left after my 3 days... and he was right. though I will say tinting isnt easy to start off, there will be sweat & tears... it will take weeks but it gets better & better with practice / patience  and every car is different.
 
I also liked that at night I had access to tims workshop to practice on my own which was great, after returning home to ireland Ii was a bit nervous about when id take my first car.... after a bit of practice I threw myself into the deep end & tinted a 3door mark5 golf... 6 months on & great portfolio I havnt looked back since
 
I would highly recommened this one to one course, its a one stop shop as well, ive been buying my tinting films / tools  of "ULTIMATE TINTING"  which are easy to work with & customers like the tone of the colours. delivery is excellent & most of all the important thing to me is Tim is always at the end of the phone if I have any queries or problems  & if hes busy he will always phone you back...thats priceless!
 
For those staying over "the griffin" is a mighty place to stay, comfortable, great food, & just across the road
 
good luck!

"don't let the initial outlay put you off"

I couldn't not recommend the course with Tim and (in our case) Ian. Not only were they very welcoming and friendly but gave soooo much information and a very genuine insight into the industry..don't let the initial outlay put you off Tim gives you lots of equipment full use of the work shop and lots of time and attention to detail, which shows in his work all this as well as including your stay at the Griffin Pub B&B (which is excellent). We only looked at a couple of courses however my business partner and I knew we had chosen the right one for us.

So in short go for it..

Andy & Mark, Surrey, June 2011

"you will learn the simplest and most effective ways to do every step necessary"

The short version is: When I first spoke with Tim on the phone I asked him, whether I would be able to tint a simple car on my own after the training is complete. His answer was a firm "yes". Later I found out he was being modest. After the training I could take on any car that came my way. Thank you Tim (again and again and again!).

If you are in for the long version then keep on reading. I think that the most important aspect of Tim's training is, simplicity. I tried to tint cars before taking the training. I managed to do a few, somehow, someway. Every single minute I was tinting I was continuously asking myself: Am I doing this right? Will this shrink? There must be a way I can cut this better. Why do I have so much contamination?
With Tim, you will learn the simplest and most effective ways to do every step necessary. After the training you will know what to do, when to do it and most importantly WHY to do it. This will built up your confidence.

Prior to the training, Tim was very helpful and patient over the phone. He took the time to answer all of our questions and explain to us, step by step, what the training is about. Had no problem arranging the training over a weekend. He picked us up from Manchester airport. He arranged for us a room in a lovely pub just across the street from the workshop (If you stay there you have to try the double burger, the spicy chicken and the veg soup!). He gave us the keys to the workshop in case we wanted to practice later in the evening, or make an early start next day. He even gave us the keys to a nice little hatchback in case we wanted to drive into town. Everything around our trip and our training was made so pleasant that I was able to relax, train and enjoy it.

Ps. By the end of day #2, I was able to heat shrink and install the rear screens of the VW Golf Mk5 and Peugeot 206, flawlessly!

TIMS REPLY:  Thank you very much for that Vasileios, I too had a great 4 days and I enjoyed our little North Wales tour too. Here's a pic of Vasileious and his mate, "The Big Man", enjoying our beautiful Welsh scenery

"Tim's course it is the only one i could see that was worth doing..."

After trying to tint my nephews corsa and thinking "how hard can it be !!" and after a few metres of wasted film i decided to check out tint courses it was clear that tint school stood head and shoulders above the rest Tim's 1-2-1 training provides a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.

The 4 day course was a delight and I learned so much and with a dedicated forum help is always at hand so glad i did Tim's course it is the only one i could see that was worth doing cheers Tim for the tips and tricks and cheers for the seemingly endless cup of tea ! cheers mate

"I now feel confident to start my new career"

I had a great time on my tinting course with Tim. He is a top bloke and i thoroughly enjoyed the training and have the upmost respect for Tim.

I went in a complete novice but with the 1-2-1 training provided and Tim`s excellent tricks and tips from the trade i now feel confident to start my new career in the window tinting business.  I couldn`t have asked for better, great value for money and a top service all round. Thanks Tim.

"what a great course..."

Hi Tim, I've returned last week from a course with Ian at Tint School Spain. What a great course, Ian really knows his stuff, and most importantly can pass it across easily. Also he and his family were very welcoming, so a big thank you to them all. Highly recommended. I am now in the process of setting up here in Cyprus as TintWorx, and hopefully will soon be working at it full time.

Kúrt (TintWorx Cyprus) - June 2010

"I felt the 1-2-1 tuition was essential..."

I'm just home from being with Tim for a few days and what an eye opener it was. Having fitted film on flat glass for very nearly ten years I decided to contact Tim and book myself in on a car tinting course to open my options. Tim started the course from exactly the right angle, not too basic as i knew the characteristics of window film, but not advanced neither so it was very easy for me to follow his instuctions for autotinting.

His style of teaching is very relaxed and it instantly allows you to learn in a friendly atmosphere. I felt the 1-2-1 tuition was essential in the quick learning curve I was on as anything else would have led to frustration. Being the only one there allowed me to concentrate knowing that Tim was watching my every move and putting me right whenever I went wrong.

From first contact to completion of the course Tim has been first class in every aspect of his professionalism.

Thanks very much for the tuition and I now can't wait to get started with the confidence to carry out a quality car tint. Especially as i managed the 206 rear screen first time ;-) Cheers for the brews!!!

"brilliant guy recommend him to anyone..."

I just attended Tint Schools 4 day training course. Tim was brilliant with showing me his methods of how to fit window tint and flat glass film, all hands on which was 1 to 1. it was a brilliant 4 days where i learnt everything i need to know to get me started and he also got me in touch with the right people and i also have on going support after i done the course. brilliant guy recommend him to anyone who wants to come into this trade.

David Morgan, Protint-Swansea  April 2010

"his aftercare is the best in the business"

I've just finished the Tint school's 4 day course, i can honestly say Tim is the best. He has the patience of a saint as i proved. Tim's step by step sequences are brilliant and he drums them into you. At the start i knew nothing about tinting by the end I was able to tint my own car. If you are looking to take a window tinting course and you want the best course for your money, then Tim's course's are what your looking for and his aftercare is the best in the business. Tim thanks for everything, i had the best 4 days.
   
Barri W,  March 2010

"THIS IS THE COURSE TO DO!"

Well where do i start... from the moment i picked up the phone to ask about the course right through to the very end of my course tim was amazing, not only a proper nice bloke but down to earth to. any questions tim had the answer. No complicated rubbish but everything you needed to know in a easy to understand way. Fab. Even now after my course tims always on the other end of the phone to help. Don't bother wasting your cash any going for another course because believe me THIS IS THE COURSE TO DO! Keep up the good work mate and speak soon. Thanks once again.

John G.  March 2010

"I have been inundated with calls and emails!"

After months of deliberating of whether or not to do Tims course I finally took the plunge, and I can honestly say it is probably the best money I have spent to push my business forward. I would recommend Tim and the Tint School to anyone, after 3 days I was all set up and rearing to go. Since getting home and being set up on the Ultimate Tinting website I have been inundated with calls and emails! Tim really does know his stuff and is always on hand to take time out of his day to help when struggling with jobs or just for a chat! Don't think I would have come as far as I did without his help. Brilliant course'

"I had 7 calls just on Saturday all got our number from the web"

90% of our work is coming from the website. Done six last week, the most we have ever done and have never done less than 3 a week. As u know it's a part time thing for us after work, so we're very happy with that amount but always welcome more. Just finished a Focus RS  about half hour ago. I had 7 calls just on Saturday all got our number from the web. Well worth the monthly cost mate. Honest

"By the end of the third day i had tinted my own car..."

I attended a 4 day training course with Tim in November.  I had no previous experience of the window tinting industry, nor had i even held a screwdriver in my hand before ever attending this course.....so to put it the least i was a beginner to practical work as i have worked in an office all my life....

Tim made me feel very welcome to the window tinting course...he had clear agenda set for the 4 days and before any practical work began, he taught the theory side first so you can understand the concept before attempting it.  By the end of the third day i had tinted my own car which is amazing considering I have never held a screwdriver or heat gun ever...but with Tim's patience and excellent teaching skills, I was de trimming and tinting by end of the third day and it wasn't bad job for a first time....

All I can say is that you will learn heaps with Tim...he knows so much about the industry and he is always at hand after the course if you have any questions, which other trainers do not give this option.  If you want to be the best in tinting, you have to learn from the best and that is Tim.  The other great plus factor to tint school course and is clear advantage over other courses is that it is a full 1-2-1 teaching course and you cant get better than that...because you have Tims full time to yourself for the 4 days and you will learn heaps. 

I wouldn't bother looking anywhere else to learn window tinting because you have the whole package with Tim's course....you get 1-2-1 training, great mentor, great methods of learning, great advice and the best you will be able to tint by the third day....now which other company can you offer you all that...."

Thanks

"...a perfect 1-2-1 environment..."

Just spent 4 days with Tim on the automotive and architectural course and was extremely impressed with what I was capable of by the end. Tim was extremely patient over the 4 days and also made sure that i got plenty of hands on experience as he believes that's the best way to learn and I have to agree.  It's a perfect 1-2-1 environment and you get Tim's full attention from the very beginning to the end covering all the elements of not only tinting and the correct procedures but also advice on how to market your business and getting started.  An exceptional course, don't bother looking anywhere else if you want to be part of the best tinting network in the UK.  Nice one Tim!
 
Thanks

"The most valuable thing he provides though is encouragement and support..."

All the arrangements for my course were professionally dealt with and were excellent. Tim instantly puts you at ease and has a huge knowledge of all aspects of the profession. He has the patience and ability to put both the theory and technical knowledge across  to give a sound start in tinting. In the hands on side everything is explained and is practical and he provides the self confidence to be able to do it. The most valuable thing he provides though is encouragement and support.

"The course was jam packed with all the knowledge and techniques that are required..."

I attended a 3 day automotive tinting course with Tim back in April 2009.  I had absolutely no tinting experience before attending this course.  The course was jam packed with all the knowledge and techniques that are required to start tinting the minute you leave. Tim was a gem and made me feel at home from the minute I got there.  Tim has perfected a straightforward step by step sequence (which he does drum into you!!!! ) for tinting which I think is the key to this success of this course.  When I got back home to Scotland I had to construct my tint bay from scratch including my cutting panel which took a good 6 weeks, during this 6 weeks I was unable to tint.  Once the tint bay was ready I got my first customer, this is where having the sequence drummed into me came into its own as I knew exactly what to do step by step, the job went very smoothly and the customer was happy with the result, this in its self just proves how powerful this course is as remember I had no previous tinting experience.
 
Keep up the good work Tim  and thanks again!!!!!
Ian (Ayreshire) September 2009

"...the best one day's training I have ever had..."

Tim. what can I say.  This was the best one day's training I have ever had, enjoyed every minute and learnt a so much from you, thank you so much for all your help and advice.

"...my 1st tinting job the knowledge was there and i had no problems"

I attended tim's training school in march of this year as i thought the skill of window tinting complemented my trade as an auto detailer. Although a little nervous of learning a new trade i felt after conversing with tim i'd found the right guy. i was correct, the three days i spent with tim where full on, and not a moment of my time with was wasted, various techniques where shown, talked through and then mastered and not once did tim struggle to either provide an answer or show me where i'd gone wrong, although there was a lot to take in in quite a short time i came away happy.

After returning home i then had the task of the building work on my new unit to complete all 8 weeks of it !!. bearing in mind i didn't tint anything during that time when it came to my 1st tinting job the knowledge was there and i had no problems.

I've just taken tim up on his offer of joining the affiliates scheme and am proud to say i'm now part of "the ultimate tinting group" thanks again tim and the kettles always on !!

Paul  PW Pro Mansfield  June 2009

TIMS REPLY:  Cheers Paul, very kind. Have a look at Paul's own web-site, looks like he has the smartest tint bay I think I've ever seen. Good on you Paul, and don't forget, when you want rid of that mega car of yours, give me a call!!

"I have no doubts that I have trained with one of the best names in the business!"

"Tim's course will prove to be invaluable for anyone serious about tinting. His experience and knowledge of the industry was hugely evident and delivered in an extremely professional manner, with a no-nonsense honest approach. If anyone thinks this is an easy couple of days, forget it, it's very intense! What has really impressed me has been Tim's ability to respond quickly and help in my early days (he does not offer a "cut and run course!) For anyone deliberating as to who to use for their training, I have no doubts that I have trained with one of the best names in the business! Call me if you have any doubts, he's got my number".

Marc, South Wales June 2009

"...I found out Tim had actually taught the other instructors how to fit, That was it my mind was made up..."

After 13 years installing window film on "flat glass"  I decided it was time to explore other avenues, I searched the Internet for auto film installers and noted down a few different courses. I stumbled across Tim @ Ultimate Tinting by accident but added him to my list anyway, After reading a few different testimonials I found out Tim had actually taught the other instructors how to fit, That was it my mind was made up, so I contacted Tim and asked a few questions, I found him to be very informative and knowledgeable, He wasn't pushy and left me to make my own mind up.

So to cut a long story short I've just completed the course and even though i'd been in the "flat glass" game 13 years, Tim opened my eyes and taught me the correct way to install auto glass. Over the course I found Tim to be patient and easy going, even making a cuppa now and again All in all I've found Tim to be a pleasure to learn under and it would be a privilege to work with him again.

So, thanks for the last 2 days, Learnt loads n looking forward to my 2 cars tomorrow (lad phoned and said he can't fetch 1 Thursday so it's both tomorrow !!!!!!!)

Also I'd love to take you up on your t'internet offer so we'll sort that over next few days. Been admiring your site and wondering what colour marker will I be ?  Blue ?

"So 10 out of 10 well done Tim your course really does work"

After working in the motor trade for 27 years I decided that I wanted to add a window tinting service to my present Business, which was already offering servicing MOTs and bodywork.

I didn't want to teach myself as I new after a few weeks of frustration the film would have ended up in the bin and that would have been the end of that. Tim's course was the one that stood out from the rest when searching for tint schools on the net. The course I attended was 9 months ago it was great I learned so much came away and started tinting the very next week. Yes things went wrong but when they did many things I had been shown on the three days with Tim came back to mind and I always got it right in the end. It wasn't long (a couple of weeks) before I gained enough confidence to take on any vehicle presented to me, but you must not give up, after a while it just clicks and you get a good feeling and understanding of what you can and cant do with  the film you soon find your feet. Now I find it so enjoyable I look forward to when I have a nice tint job booked in I get in a corner of my workshop and find it so enjoyable and relaxing. OH and the money helps as well. So 10 out of 10 well done Tim your course really does work. Brilliant pub to stay at over the road, good stall, and owners couldn't do enough for you.

 Thanks again Tim

 Merv- TINT MY GLASS ( Slough Berkshire. )  (4 April 2009)

"My advice is go to Tint School no other will match the quality for price..."

Hi Tim,
 
Sorry I've taken a while to get back to you!

Fusion TintingAfter getting home from the course i was inching to get started (even after the 5 hour drive)  What can i say but Thank you, the 3 days that i spent with yourself were great, not only did i learn vast amounts of information, tricks and tips that would have taken years to pick up but I also had loads FUN!!!!

The amount of information you have kept in that head of yours is amazing, no matter how silly or strange the question i had you always had the answer (unlike your competitors who have to phone others for the answers!!) It is amazing at what you can learn in just three days, I went from being able to tint a car what i used to think was ok in around 5-6 hours to now, getting a professional finish every time with ease and always in under 3 hours (still getting quicker by the day) The routines, methods and structure you taught me has amazed me from day one, how with less effort you can get a much better job done.

Since getting home I was excited to start, as you know my original idea was to slowly move away from my other business to set up Fusion Tinting gradually.  Its taken off so quick that before I've even had time to build a website I have so many jobs booked already, including a limited edition Skoda Octavia VRS 1 of 500 in the country on a 09 plate (only a week old :S), a full rear extension and I have also signed a contract with a local Jaguar dealer for their building and automotive work.  I'm also in discussions with a Land Rover Dealer and the local Bmw dealer and its all thanks to you not only teaching me the Ultimate way to tint but also providing me with the confidence.

I researched every where for a course, for months on end and decided on Tim's Tint School and what a CHOICE!!! There's excellent accommodation seconds from the tint school, you get to work in a fully working tint bay not a classroom, Tim is one of the nicest guys you will ever meet and so easy to get on and have a laugh with.

My advice is go to Tint School no other will match the quality for price and its all 1-2-1 hands on training, not 5-1 watching a man in a room tint!!  What you learn from Tim in days will take years to pick up on and other schools won't teach you. (he also provides support after the course has finished !!!) If anyone has any questions about the course, location or what Tim himself is like, please don't hesitate to ring me il will be more than happy for a chat Matt : 07719 777 127 (Fusion Tinting)  Thanks again Tim and I'll keep you informed on future progress I'm sure you'll have me on the phone in a panic at some point!!

Please keep me informed on when you will be updating the site to ### ## ### ###  as when you do, I'll be looking to sign on.

Also please do keep me informed about the visit to Bekaert, I believe Stephen is coming to visit my area after his holiday but I would still like to see their premises.

Thanks again

"your course was well worth while"

"We would recommend Tim and Tint School to anyone who wants value for their money"

"Having searched the internet for some time looking for a window tint training course and after much research and discussion with 3 potential training schools, We eventually settled with Tim at Tint school.
We found Tim gave us totally impartial and excellent advice on what to look out for when choosing an appropriate course.

During our 4 day training course we both found Tim to be very knowledgeable, professional and sometimes incredibly patient with us during certain tasks.

After the training was finish we could not wait to return home and get our tint bay up and running and tint our first vehicle. Even after our course we have found Tim to be always happy to receive a phone call when we needed some help.

Overall an excellent training course. We would recommend Tim and Tint School to anyone who wants value for their money."

"...I cracked it, and have just got better and better..."

Hello Tim, after the time you spent helping me, I thought I'd take just a few moments out of my very busy day to write you a well deserved testimonial, because my days are so busy thanks to you. As you know my plans were to set up "Axiom Tint Studio" once I had abit of experience, but things have been great, and I'm up and running only a week after my course, and, its all down to you Tim. I had been shown how to tint before I did the Tint School course, by a friend with over 5years experience, and his own business, but I could not pick it up, and the rear screens were a no go, but after Tim showed me a better way, I cracked it, and have just got better and better, and at the risk of making myself sound big headed, I'm pretty dam good at it. The course was fantastic, and gave me all the skills, contacts and confidence to make Axiom a success, which is something I really cant pay Tim back for.
 
If you have any doubts about Tims course, please feel free to ring me on 07752135222, I will answer any of your questions openly and honestly, I have no ties to Tint School, I am just a believer in what Tim can offer.
 
Thank you for your time and help.
Adam, Axiom Tint Studio (January 2009)

TIMS REPLY:  Thank you very much Adam and as a note I had a call off Adam a couple of weeks ago to say that he'd successfully tinted 8 cars on his first week. Well done mate, keep up the good work.

"...well worth the money..."

Hi Tim - Yeah got home ok got home at 12.20 so that wasn't to bad. yeah course was really good learned a lot well worth the money and the road trip  was an experience in itself. I'm just finished printing off files that you sent me.
 
Thanks again and speak to you soon

John (October 2008)

TIMS COMMENT:  To everyone out there who thinks that NORTH WALES where we're based is on a different planet and is worrying about the drive to get here, John lives in WICH. Wick is 20 miles from John O' Groats. That's over 500 miles away and over a 10 hour drive!!. Well done and many thanks John, you did exceptionally well, now go and PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE.

"...looking forward to tinting the first car for profit"

Well I would just like to say thank you to Tim my eyes are wide open to window tinting as a result of taking this course both myself and my wife enjoyed every minute of this education.  All the home work I did before attending the course didn't make a lot of sense gaining information from the internet, DVDs, books made the window tinting business very confusing but after only a short time chatting with Tim we felt we had made the right decision with tint school.  While I attempted to tint windows my wife fired question after question at Tim about the tinting business Helen's aim was to gain as much information as possible and get a feel for the business as we are intent on starting our own window tinting business.  That left me to learn how to tint - I have instructed on many courses myself and couldn't fault the way Tim instructs he is clear and understandable in his instruction and with you every step of the way, even with Helen asking questions Tim was watching my every move and pointing me in the right direction to learn his technique and I will say this it works.  Added on to that is all the paperwork, information and many other vital things we needed to know to get started.  I feel a lot more confident with tinting now and we are pushing forward with our business plans and looking forward to tinting the first car for profit.  Please say thanks to Adrian and Maria for a lovely stay in the Griffin Inn - the food is first class and the rooms are excellent. 

Thanks Andy and Helen (August 2008)

"...recommend his courses to everyone"

Would just like to say thanks to tim again for the flat glass course i've just done with him. I had already done the 3 day car course with him in 2007 and for a bit of diversity i decided to do the flat glass course. I would recommend his courses to everyone, as they are one-on-one instead of some of the the classroom courses i saw. What's best is that he's always on the the end of the phone if im stuck, even now!
 
Thanks Again, James Lynch, Phantom Tinting  ( August 2008)

"a cracking four days..."

Firstly I would like to thank Tim for a cracking four days.  I did the 3 days automotive and one day flat glass course.  It was a huge new learning curve for me which was intensive but very enjoyable indeed.  Tim shows you the different techniques involved in tinting, which I found truly amazing and with practice and under his watchful eye I began to get the hang of it!

On the third day I put my drop glass and heat shrinking skills to the test by doing my own BMW and the satisfaction I got from that was fantastic.  It made me think that tinting was for me, even though it took me all day.

The advice he offers from marketing to everything involved with tinting is great.  His one to one teaching method he adopts is second to none.  If you have any problems when you go away and do it yourself he is always there to help with advice and top tips.

If you seriously want to do a professional tinting course ring him and speak to him and you will be impressed by the way he doesn't give you any hard sell, just tells you what's involved in the course.

I will finish with one final comment.  Don't think you will be a master tinter at the end of the course, it takes practice, but what you will have is sound knowledge and technique to build on.  My confidence is growing day by day!

"Really impressed" says Jez

I really fancied doing something completely different, with a view to building a small business. I decided that the Tinting business was for me. 

Part of my role, as a Deputy Head Teacher, is interviewing candidates for a range of different jobs within an educational context. I am not the easiest person in the world to impress!  I spoke to Master Tint and Train To Tint on the telephone. They seemed very confident in what they could deliver and gave me what I would call a ‘hard sell’. (Lots of talking and not much listening) I also came off the phone with some of my questions not fully satisfied. How long have your trainers been in the business?  Who can I speak to who has done one of your courses? I was having my doubts, after all this type of training is not cheap. I then got in touch with the final name on my list, a guy called Tim at ‘Ultimate Tinting/ Tint School’  He was very interested to find out all about me and during the conversation I got the impression that he was perhaps interviewing me.  He was totally upfront about his course and where I would be at the end of it and also assured me that it would be 1 to 1 with him. He also suggested that I contact other training schools before making any final decisions and if I wanted to speak to anyone who had recently completed his course to just let him know. Anyway I was sold. I opted for the four day course, as I was particularly interested in the flat glass market. I arrived to find a professional and clean work area and Tim, possibly one of the friendliest easy going guys I have ever come across. We had a coffee and a chat and started work. During the course several ‘word of mouth’ customers popped in to organise to have their cars tinted. Tim was adamant that they would have to wait until the end of the week as his time was mine for the four days. I was really impressed by this. Anyway after eating far too much in the fantastic Griffin Inn, drinking far too much coffee and working incredibly hard, I left North Wales feeling that I had received real value for money; and had tinted and security filmed my own Citroen Picasso, without help, on day 3. Chuffed, to say the least. I could go on, but I think you have probably got the idea. This type of work was completely outside my comfort zone, but Tim showed the patience of a Saint and did as he had promised.

If you want to learn how to tint, go on this course and be taught by a genuine, time served professional. And if you want to speak to me, just ask Tim for my number, as I would happily answer any of your questions.

"No Comparison" says Graham

Myself and a partner shopped around for a window tinting course towards the end of last year, in the end we chose to do the course with "Master Tinting". After spending the majority of the 3 days watching the trainer tint, we returned and set up our tint bay. We struggled and struggled but stuck at it. It took us 10 hours to do a zafira one day. Anyway as it happened I parted company with my business partner and approached Tim to see if he was looking for some help. He didn't at the time but took my number. Several months later I got a call to say he was now looking for someone to run the Reading business so I went down for an interview. He threw me straight in at the deep end and got me to tint the rear screen on my car (Hyundai Lantra estate) as I'd never been able to do it. He patiently sat watching me for about 1 1/2 hours putting the film on and off the glass, using a glove to help stretch the film into place, how I'd been show how to do it. I never did finish it as Tim stopped me, after pointing out it would never end up right. He then proceeded to completely tint the window in about 10 minutes. To say I was gob smacked would be an understatement. His way is so simple, neat and effortless. You can just tell he knows what he's talking about. I'm really looking forward to learning how to tint properly now, so that it's a pleasure not a nightmare. All I will say to anyone who's thinking of going into the tinting business seriously, is do Tim's course. His back up is second to none, he knows what he's talking about, doesn't try and bull shit you and has an excellent hands off training method teaching a simple but effective tinting sequence. Trust me, I've seen his competition. No comparison

TIMS REPLY

Thanks for that Graham, very kind. Now there is nothing technically wrong with the way you've been shown how to tint as you'll get there in the end, but I think you've seen, there is a far more simple way of doing it, there is no need to over complicate things, KISS, (Keep It Simple Stupid!!)

"Planned and very organised"

Tim, many many thanks for the three days in wales on the tint course.

I was thinking about learning how to tint vehicles the hard way, teach my self. But now, after doing the tint course I would have had no chance. Some of the techniques you taught me and tips you shown me were quite amazing. For example when your tinting a tail gate and both of your arms are at full stretch and you need a third hand to push the film on to the screen, just blow it. I thought that was brilliant.

I thought the three days were well planned and very organised. At the end of each day I felt shattered, not because of the standing because I'm used to that, but because of all the information I had to take in and there wasn't any exercise we did that was a waste of time.

What I thought was really good there, was a social side to the course as well as a work side. The Griffin pub where I stopped was spotless and those steaks we had there were well nice.

I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of the course. If you want to give my number to anyone who wants to know about the three days by all means do.

Cheers mate, Jon Soar, September 2007

"Very Satisfied"

I was very satisfied with Ultimate Tinting's training course. The 3-day course is totally one-to-one and very hands on. Tim really knows his tinting and seems to enjoy passing on his expertise. I have now been tinting solo for a couple of months and when I have a problem Tim is always the other end of a phone call and always happy to help. I would recommend this course to anyone planning on a potentially lucrative career in tinting and I urge people not to compromise for a cheaper course.

"Patient and Meticulous"

We began talking to Tim at Ultimate Tinting at the beginning of the year with a view to starting a business in window tinting. My business partner had come up with the idea and to say that I was a little skeptical would be the understatement of the year. After a short period of time of discussing the concept with Tim I felt totally at ease with the idea and could start to appreciate the opportunities in this under developed business area.

Tim ran through the agenda of his 3 day course and was able to fit us in at a weekend so that our normal day to day jobs were not disrupted. We found the course informative, practical and above all very interesting and motivating. Of course we had compared Tim's offering to other manufacturers courses and on reflection we have certainly made the right decision to buy from an independent. Other courses offer more classroom based training which we feel wastes time compared to the hands on approach that Tim uses. Tim has also given open advice on marketing, supplier contacts and the image that needs to be created to be successful. The advice that Tim has given is also impartial and honest, other manufacturers course again have an allegiance to their products which deviates from the core needs of training. Megatint as we have named our business would have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending likewise entrepreneurs to take the course with a view of commencing a window tinting business. There is a world of untapped potential with glass that can be explored and developed.

Since taking the course in February, we have both changed direction in our careers and established our business in Cornwall. It fits perfectly with our relaxed lifestyle knowing that we can enjoy our family life whilst being able to be involved in a rewarding business that has the flexibility that you wish to create. We have been trading for 3 weeks and have already established a full order book during this time that can only get better.

Tim is knowledgeable, patient and meticulous; he has offered excellent ongoing support and advice for which we are very appreciative. We wish Tim all the best in the future and will certainly continue our dialogue.

Steve Whight, Mega Tint

"Genuine Enthusiasm"

Just a thought I would take a few mins to say thanks again for my training course. The Ultimate Tinting experience was great. Atmosphere, facilities and surrounds were perfect. Initially I was sceptical that a 3 day course could teach me enough to tackle tinting on my own, I am pleased to say however that I was totally unjustified in thinking this. Thanks to a combination of; your obvious knowledge on all things tinting, a genuine enthusiasm for your job and a level of patience not normally shown by mortals, I am now confident enough to tint. With determination and the knowledge of a friendly person always willing to give emergency advice, I feel that I have everything I need to make the; "be my own boss" dream a realistic and enjoyable one.

Once again many thanks, Steve
