Bring Your Team. Represent Your Shop.
The Canadian Tint Expo & Competition is built for professionals who want to do more than watch from the sidelines.
It is an opportunity to put your technical ability, consistency, speed, and professionalism to the test in front of installers, shop owners, manufacturers, distributors, vendors, and industry leaders from across Canada and the United States.
The event tagline says it best: “Buy 2, Get 1 Free! Competition Registration, Bring your team. Represent your shop.”
When three people from the same shop compete together, the experience becomes more than an individual challenge. Your team can:
- Practice together before the event
- Support one another during competition
- Build confidence under pressure
- Learn from other professional installers
- Represent your city, business, or dealership
- Create promotional content for your shop
- Compete for championship recognition
- Build stronger skills and team culture
Whether you operate an independent tint shop, a dealership service department, a PPF studio, a wrap shop, or a high-volume automotive operation, this is a chance to put your people and your standards in the spotlight.
Three Registrations Can Be Mixed Between Categories
The team offer is designed to give you flexibility. Your three registrations do not have to be limited to one competition category.
Eligible options include:
Window Tint Competition
The Great Canadian Tint Competition challenges professional automotive window film installers to deliver clean, precise, high-quality work under time pressure.
Judges evaluate important production skills, including:
- Contamination control
- Edge and gap consistency
- Film handling
- Cutting and finishing
- Creases and installation defects
- Overall appearance
- Installation technique
- Completion within the allotted time
This is a serious window tint competition for installers who want to measure their performance against professionals from across North America.
Flat Glass Championship
The Flat Glass Championship focuses on architectural and flat-glass film installation.
Competitors will be evaluated on preparation, measurement, cutting, installation, water removal, straightness, edge gaps, contamination control, and overall workmanship.
If your team works in commercial film, architectural film, or flat-glass applications, this category gives you an opportunity to demonstrate a different set of installation skills on a major industry floor.
PPF/Vinyl Wrap Competition
The event also features a PPF/Wrap Competition, with the competition rules identifying the wrap category as the Wrap Competition.
This challenge tests the skills required for clean, professional vehicle-wrap work under the clock, including:
- Surface preparation
- Material handling
- Film positioning
- Stretch management
- Corners and edges
- Recesses
- Wrinkles and imperfections
- Cutting and finishing
- Overall presentation
The promotion includes a PPF/Vinyl Wrap registration option, making it a strong fit for teams working across paint protection film, vinyl wrap, and related vehicle appearance services.
Canada vs. USA Cross Border Showdown
The Canadian Tint Expo is also open to US competitors. The Canada vs. USA Cross Border Showdown brings selected installers from both countries together for a unique international competition.
As the official promotion puts it: “Canada | USA, One industry. No borders.”
The Cross Border Showdown may include multiple installation challenges, such as automotive side-window installation, film shrinking, rear-window work, precision cutting, finishing, and speed-versus-quality challenges.
Your individual performance can contribute to your country’s overall team score. It is one of the most exciting ways to experience the tint competition Canada has to offer in 2027.

Why Register as a Team?
Competing alone can be rewarding. Competing with your team can make the entire experience more valuable.
A team registration gives your shop the opportunity to turn the event into a shared training and development experience. Your installers can compare techniques, encourage one another, study the judging process, and return home with new ideas for improving quality and efficiency.
For managers and owners, the event can also support:
- Employee development
- Team recognition
- Recruitment and retention
- Social media and marketing content
- Brand visibility
- Professional networking
- Stronger shop culture
The Canadian Tint Expo & Competition is about more than trophies. It is about raising standards across the industry and recognizing the professionals who take pride in their work.
