Legal tint, fitted properly, no bubbling in six months. Front side windows have to let through at least 70% VLT to stay road legal — we'll make sure whatever you choose stays within that before it goes on. Pricing starts at £109 for a 3-door hatch, scaling up to £230 for a 4x4. Vans from £109 for a panel van.
PIXL is industry-renowned as a training provider — chances are the competition learned this from us. Why trust the trainee when you can have the teacher?
How we cut
Cut by computer to your exact model, not with a knife on your car.
Hand-cut tint is trimmed with a knife on the car itself. Our pattern software covers about 95% of cars, and for those we cut your film on a plotter from your car's own pattern. That's why we ask for the model year when you book.
- No blade on your car. With a pattern, nothing is cut on your glass, rubbers or paint.
- Cut to your exact model. Edge to edge, from the pattern for your make, model and year.
- About 40 minutes quicker. Less time with your car out of action than hand-cutting.
- Cleaner. Your film is cut and weeded on a clean board in the van, not laid over the car, so it doesn't pick up dirt from the bodywork.

01
Cut by the plotter
Your film is cut in the van on a Graphtec plotter, from the pattern for your make, model and year.
-
02
Weeded on a clean board
The cut pieces go onto a clean peel board in the back of the van, and the excess film is lifted away.
-
03
Fitted from inside
Then it goes on the inside of the glass and is squeegeed out, edge to edge.

Is Window Tint Legal in the UK? The Rules in One Table
UK window tint law explained: the 70% and 75% VLT limits, why a '70% film' on a front window is usually illegal, and what happens at an MOT or roadside check.
Questions
Vehicle window tinting — the usual questions
Do you offer mobile window tinting?
Yes — we fit at your home, workplace or yard across Harrogate, Leeds, York and Bradford, at the price you see online. We need somewhere enclosed or sheltered and dry, since dust under the film shows for good. If the spot or the weather is not right on the day we'll rebook rather than fit a poor tint.
Is the tint road legal?
Front side windows and the windscreen have to let at least 70% of light through — we keep whatever you choose within that. Behind the B-pillar there is no legal limit, so rear and back windows can go as dark as you like.
Will the tint bubble or go purple?
Not when it is fitted properly with quality film. Our automotive tint carries a lifetime warranty against delamination, discolouration and peeling — accidental damage and general wear are not covered.
How long does a car take, and can I use it straight away?
A standard car is a few hours. Leave the windows up for a couple of days afterwards while the film cures — you get a specific slot with your estimate.
Do you tint vans?
Yes: panel vans £109, crew and Kombi vans £130, shuttle vans and campers £190, fitted at your yard or driveway.
