Automotive Window Tinting FAQ
How long does automotive tint installation take?
Most vehicles can be completed in 2-4 hours depending on the number of windows and complexity. Full vehicle tinting (all windows) typically takes 3-4 hours. We recommend allowing the full time window for best results.
How long before I can roll down my windows?
We recommend waiting 3-5 days before rolling down your windows to allow the adhesive to fully cure. In Texas summer heat, the cure time may be shorter, but it's best to err on the side of caution.
Will ceramic tint interfere with my electronics?
No! Unlike metallic films, XPEL ceramic films contain no metal layers. They won't interfere with cell phones, GPS, Bluetooth, satellite radio, key fobs, toll tags, or any other electronic devices in your vehicle.
What's the difference between ceramic and regular tint?
Traditional dyed films primarily reduce visible light but don't block much heat. Ceramic films use nano-ceramic particles to reject infrared heat (the heat you feel), providing significantly better cooling performance. Ceramic films also won't fade, bubble, or turn purple over time.
Can you tint my windshield?
Yes! We offer clear and lightly tinted ceramic films for windshields that provide heat and UV rejection while meeting Texas legal requirements (25% VLT above the AS-1 line). Windshield tint makes a dramatic difference in cabin comfort.
What if I already have factory tint?
Factory "privacy glass" is typically just dyed glass that provides minimal heat rejection. We can apply ceramic film over factory tint to significantly improve heat rejection and UV protection. Just note that the combined VLT will be darker than the film alone.
