The benefits of window tint are three fold: it changes up the look of your vehicle, protects the interior and keeps the heat out. Who doesn’t love that? Our preferred window film offers key benefits that make it great for your vehicle and your wallet.
Window tint refers to the application of a thin film applied to the glass surfaces of a vehicle's windows. This film can be made from a variety of materials including dyed films, carbon, and ceramic particles, each providing different levels of heat rejection, UV protection, and privacy. The primary purposes of window tinting include:
1. Reducing glare and sunlight: This can help improve visibility for the driver and comfort for passengers by blocking out harsh sunlight and reducing eye strain.
2. Increasing privacy: Tinted windows make it harder for people outside the vehicle to see inside, providing a level of privacy for passengers.
3. Protecting against UV radiation: Window tint can block a significant amount of harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, which protects the skin of the occupants and helps prevent the interior of the vehicle from fading and cracking.
4. Temperature control: By blocking out the sun’s heat, window tint can help keep the interior of the vehicle cooler, reducing the need for air conditioning and improving fuel efficiency.
5. Safety and security: In the event of an accident, window tint can help hold shattered glass together, potentially preventing it from injuring occupants. It can also make it more difficult for thieves to see valuables inside the car or break through windows.
Different regions have specific laws and regulations regarding the level of darkness (measured as a percentage of light transmission or VLT - Visible Light Transmission) and which windows can be tinted, to ensure that visibility and safety are not compromised. It's important for vehicle owners to be aware of and comply with these regulations when applying window tint.
Nano ceramic window film is a type of window tinting film that uses nano-sized ceramic particles to provide a range of benefits for automotive, residential, and commercial windows. Unlike traditional dyed or metallic films, nano ceramic window films are made from non-conductive ceramic particles, which give them distinctive properties and advantages. Nano ceramic window film represents a cutting-edge solution in window tinting technology, providing a balance of functional benefits and aesthetic appeal.
Carbon ceramic window film is constructed from genuine nano-carbon particles, avoiding metals or dyes, ensuring it leads its category in performance. It retains its color without fading or signal interference. The nano-carbon technology preserves clear visibility while primarily blocking infrared heat and UV rays, allowing it to block more than 99% of UV rays and up to 95% of infrared heat.
Dyed window tint is one of the most traditional and commonly used types of window film, primarily due to its affordability and aesthetic appeal. This tinting method involves applying a layer of dye between a protective top coating and the adhesive layer that sticks to the window.
