Window Tint FAQ
What are the main benefits of window tint?
Window tint offers more than just a darker look. It significantly reduces heat buildup inside the vehicle, blocks harmful UV rays, cuts down glare, and increases privacy. Over time, tint also helps protect interior materials like leather, plastics, and trim from fading and cracking. The result is a more comfortable, protected, and enjoyable driving experience every day.
How much cooler will my car feel after window tinting?
The difference is noticeable, especially in warmer climates like Georgia. Depending on the tint package chosen, window tint can reduce heat entering the cabin by anywhere from moderate levels to nearly all infrared heat. This helps the interior cool down faster, keeps it cooler while driving, and reduces strain on your air conditioning system.
What is the difference between carbon, ceramic, and ceramic IR tint?
Carbon tint offers improved appearance, glare reduction, and basic heat rejection. Ceramic tint takes performance further by rejecting more heat and UV rays while maintaining excellent clarity. Ceramic IR tint provides the highest level of heat rejection by targeting infrared heat specifically, making it the best option for maximum comfort and temperature control.
Is ceramic tint worth the upgrade?
For most drivers, yes. Ceramic based tints provide a noticeable improvement in comfort, especially during hot summer months. They reduce heat without requiring darker shades, maintain clear visibility, and offer long term performance. Many customers say ceramic tint is one of the most noticeable upgrades they have made to their vehicle.
Will window tint affect visibility at night?
When properly selected and installed, window tint does not negatively impact nighttime visibility. Choosing the right shade is important, and lighter ceramic options still provide excellent heat rejection while maintaining clear visibility after dark.
Does window tint interfere with electronics or sensors?
No. Modern window tint is non metallic and will not interfere with GPS, Bluetooth, cell service, cameras, or vehicle safety systems. This is especially important on newer vehicles that rely heavily on onboard technology.
How long does window tint last?
High quality window tint is designed to last for many years. With proper installation and care, it resists fading, bubbling, peeling, and discoloration. Higher tier tint packages typically include a lifetime warranty, giving long term peace of mind.
What warranty comes with window tint?
Warranty coverage depends on the tint package. Entry level options typically include a limited warranty, while higher performance tint packages often come with a lifetime warranty against defects such as bubbling, peeling, or fading.
Is window tint legal in Georgia?
Yes, window tint is legal in Georgia when installed within state guidelines. The most common legal limit is 32 percent visible light transmission on side and rear windows, with a non reflective strip allowed on the windshield above the AS1 line. We help customers choose options that stay compliant while still delivering strong performance.
Is window tint a good upgrade for new vehicles?
Absolutely. Tinting a new vehicle early helps protect the interior from day one, improves comfort immediately, and keeps the cabin looking newer for longer. Many customers choose to tint their vehicle shortly after purchase for these reasons.
