FAQ

Window tint questions, answered

How dark can I legally tint in California?
Aftermarket film on the front side windows must allow more than 70% of light through (VLT). Rear side windows and the back windshield can be any darkness, and the windshield allows a non-reflective strip along the top. We will help you choose a legal, great-looking setup.
Carbon, ceramic, or infrared, what's the difference?
Carbon looks great and rejects roughly half the sun's heat at a friendly price. Ceramic rejects more heat (about 70%) without going darker. Infrared ceramic is the top tier, rejecting up to around 88% of heat for the coolest cabin, metal-free and signal-safe.
Does tint block UV rays?
Yes. Our films block about 99% of harmful UV rays, protecting your skin and preventing your interior from fading and cracking.
How long does it take?
Most car tint installations take about 3.5 to 4 hours. We will confirm the timeline when you book.
Is the tint warrantied?
Yes. Our window tint installations carry a lifetime warranty covering bubbling, peeling, and discoloration.
