Started with one car.
Grew through word of mouth.
Bates Window Tint started the way most great local shops do — one car, one weekend, and a lot of frustration with how big-box tint shops treated customers and their vehicles.
What started as a side hustle for friends and family turned into a full operation serving Darke County, fueled entirely by referrals and 5-star reviews. We never spent a dollar on advertising. Just did good work.
Today we still operate the same way: one installer, one job at a time, premium materials only, and full warranties on everything we touch.
