California Tint Law Notice
*Tint visualizer images are for appearance reference only. Actual results may vary based on factory glass, lighting, vehicle interior, and film selection. California law requires front driver- and passenger-side windows to allow at least 70% visible light transmission (VLT) after film is applied. Selecting a front window tint with a VLT darker than 70% is not compliant with California law. Before installation, customers are required to sign a Window Tint Acknowledgement confirming they understand California tint laws and their selected tint shade.

Window Tint Resources
How Long Does Window Tint Last, and When Should It Be Replaced?
Quality automotive window film can last for many years, but its actual lifespan depends on the film, installation, sun exposure, vehicle use and how the windows are maintained.
Are Bubbles and Haze Normal After Window Tinting?
Fresh window tint may look cloudy, hazy or slightly uneven while installation moisture dries. Learn what is normal during curing and when to contact your installer.
Can You Tint Over Factory Privacy Glass?
Factory privacy glass can usually be covered with automotive window film, but the added film changes both the darkness and performance of the glass.
Does Window Tint Really Keep Your Car Cooler?
Window tint can reduce the solar heat entering through your vehicle's glass, but it cannot prevent a parked car from becoming hot. Learn what tint can realistically do and which performance measurements matter.
What Window Tint Percentage Should I Choose?
Learn what common tint percentages look like, how they affect privacy and visibility, and why the final shade can vary from one vehicle to another.
Carbon vs. Ceramic vs. Premium Ceramic Window Tint: What's the Difference?
Carbon, ceramic and premium ceramic tint can look similar, but they offer different levels of heat performance and come at different price points.
