What we do

What's included.

Window tint cuts interior heat, blocks UV that fades upholstery and dashboards, adds privacy, and gives the vehicle a finished look. We install carbon and ceramic films from established brands, all installations done indoors in a controlled environment to keep dust and bubbles out of the finish. Carbon film is the practical mid-tier, solid heat rejection, good color stability, no signal interference with phones or GPS. Ceramic film is the upgrade tier, superior heat rejection (up to 60% in the IR range), the strongest UV block, and zero metallic content so radio and cellular reception stay clean. We tint front sides, back sides, rear windows, sunroofs, and windshield brow strips. Common vehicles include daily drivers, lifted trucks, SUVs, Teslas, and Wranglers and Gladiators. We follow California's tint law on every install, rear and back-side windows can be any darkness, front sides must allow at least 70% visible light transmission, windshield top brow up to 4 inches is allowed. Most full-vehicle installs run 1.5 to 2.5 hours. Lifetime warranty on the film bubbling, peeling, or fading.

No. Carbon and ceramic films are non-metallic, so signals pass through cleanly. Older metallic films could interfere; the modern carbon and ceramic films we install are signal-transparent.

Tint takes 3 to 7 days to fully cure depending on weather. Don't roll your windows down for at least 3 days to let the adhesive set. Slight haze or water bubbles during curing are normal and disappear as the film dries.

Yes. Removal is a separate quote, depending on the film type and how aged it is. Once the old film is off, we install the new film right away in the same appointment.
