AP Corp was founded in 2001 by our CEO, Bill Valway, in his parent’s garage as an automotive tinting business. In the years that followed, he added related services and certified staff members to meet the growing demand for our services. Tinting cars quickly evolved into tinting windows for homes and businesses, providing commercial and retail vehicle wraps, and offering commercial graphics. Just 20 years later, AP Corp has become the 7th largest window film dealer in the United States.
