Promo Box LLC Expands Everett Shop and Adds New Window Tinting & Paint Protection Film (PPF) Services

Andrey | 03.26.2026
When we started Promo Box, we worked out of a garage.

Then we moved into one shop where we did everything: printing, embroidery, vehicle wraps all in the same space.

Now we’ve grown again.

We’ve expanded our Everett shop, added a second dedicated space, and officially brought back Window Tinting and Paint Protection Film (PPF) services with a proper clean installation room built specifically for it.

This expansion isn’t just about adding services. It’s about building the right environment to do the work properly.

Why We Added Window Tinting and PPF Now

We actually offered tinting and PPF in the past. But we stopped.

Not because we didn’t know how to do it but because we didn’t have the right space.

“Because we added some extra space in the shop,” I explain when people ask why now. “We already had a clean installation room, and now with the extra space, we can offer these services since they require a clean environment. Adding this second part of the shop made it a perfect fit.”

Window tinting and paint protection film require a controlled, dust-free area. You can’t rush it. You can’t do it next to printers and cutting tables.

Now we have a dedicated shop space specifically for:


And that separation matters.

What This Means for Our Customers

Most of the vehicles coming in for tint and PPF are new, beautiful cars.

People buy something nice and they want to keep it that way.

For tinting, it’s often new cars straight from the dealership.

“People want to get their windows tinted. Even when we’re doing commercial wraps, sometimes we tell clients, ‘Hey, do you want your windows tinted too?’ And they say, ‘Oh, we didn’t even know you did that. Sure, let’s do it.’ Boom, done.”

Tinting works both as a standalone service and as an add-on to vehicle wraps. It fits naturally into what we already do, taking care of vehicles.

We offer three levels of film quality:

  • Polycarbonate (good)
  • Ceramic (better)
  • Graphene-infused ceramic (best)

The graphene film blocks 90–99% of infrared heat. That’s the sun heat you feel on your hands while driving. Even lighter graphene film can block more heat than darker, cheaper films.

Some people think darker automatically means better. That’s not true.

And yes, we always inform clients about legal limits in Washington. Rear windows can be as dark as you want. Front side windows legally can’t exceed 24% visible light transmission. We always make sure customers know that.

Paint Protection Film (PPF): Protecting What You Invest In

Paint Protection Film is different. It’s about long-term preservation.

We primarily use STK film, 8 mil thick with a ceramic top layer. It’s water-resistant, dirt-resistant, and much easier to maintain.

For premium cars especially, PPF protects against:

  • Rock chips
  • Minor scratches
  • UV damage
  • Parking lot door dings
  • Road debris

Yes, it’s self-healing for minor scratches. Leave it in the sun or pour hot water on it and small marks disappear.

Full vehicle PPF installation takes about five days in our shop. We handle all prep: polishing, cleaning, detailing. The film itself has a lifetime warranty. Installation defects are covered for one year.

And for those wondering, wrap and PPF are not compatible together. It’s either PPF + tint, or wrap + tint. We make that clear upfront.

Why the Environment Matters

This expansion wasn’t random.

PPF and tint installations require precision. They require cleanliness.

They require experience.

“We’re really skilled. We have 15+ years of experience in wrapping and installation,” I always tell clients. That experience translates directly into tint and PPF.

When you’re working on high-end vehicles, there’s no room for dust contamination or rushed installation.

That’s why having a dedicated clean space was non-negotiable before bringing these services back.

What This Expansion Did for Our Original Shop

Adding a second shop didn’t just allow us to bring back tint and PPF.

It freed up space in our original production area.

Previously, printing equipment and vehicle wrapping shared the same environment. Now vehicle graphics and car services have their own dedicated space.

That means the original shop now has room for expansion, including new printing equipment and a new machine specifically for outdoor signs.

We’re continuing to grow our signage capabilities because outdoor signage is a huge part of brand visibility for contractors and local businesses.

The more space we have, the better we can organize workflow and the higher quality we can maintain.
Growth isn’t about doing more. It’s about doing it better.

Who This Is For

Window Tinting and PPF aren’t just for luxury car owners.

We handle:

  • Individual vehicles
  • Commercial vehicles
  • Fleet vehicles
  • Partial or full protection
  • Matte or gloss finishes

Starting prices:
  • PPF partial front: ~$1,300
  • Full front: ~$2,000–2,300
  • Full car: ~$4,500+

Tint pricing depends on film type and vehicle complexity.

All vehicles must come to our shop. No mobile installs. Quality requires proper environment.

What This Expansion Really Means

This expansion represents something bigger.

It means we’re not standing still.

As I’ve said before in other contexts: if you’re not moving forward, you’re treading water.

We’ve invested in more space, cleaner installation areas, better equipment, and expanded services, not because clients demanded it, but because it made sense for the direction we’re going.

We want to handle more of your vehicle needs under one roof.

Wrap it.

Tint it.

Protect it.

Brand it.

And do it properly.

That’s what this expansion is about.
