Auto window tinting involves applying a thin film to the interior or exterior of a vehicle’s windows. This film is made from a variety of materials, such as polyester, dyed, metallized, or ceramic compounds, each offering different levels of tint and benefits. The primary purposes of window tinting are to reduce glare from the sun, enhance privacy, and improve the vehicle’s aesthetic appeal.
The process begins with cleaning the windows thoroughly to remove any dust, dirt, or debris that could interfere with the film’s adhesion. A template of the window is then created to cut the film to the exact size and shape. The film is carefully applied using a solution that allows it to be positioned accurately before the adhesive activates. After application, the film is smoothed out to eliminate air bubbles and ensure a clean finish.
There are several types of window tint films available, each with specific characteristics:
