What Does Window Tinting Mean?
Window tinting can be described as the application of a thin coating to the glass of vehicle's windows. The film can be used to reduce the amount sun that enters a vehicle's windows and also to reduce heat buildup. Window tinting has many benefits. It can enhance the vehicle's appearance, as well as provide privacy for its occupants.
Different Types of Tints
There are many kinds of window tints and each has its benefits. The most widely used tints are ceramic, metalized and dyed.
Dyed Tints
Dyed tints are made with a dyed polypropylene film. They are the most economically-friendly option. They can fade, however, and offer excellent heat rejection and UV protection.
Tints
Metalized tints consist of a metalized Polyester film. They provide excellent UV protection as well as heat rejection. While metalized shades don't fade over the years, they are less likely to be scratched than other types.
Ceramic Paints
Ceramic tints can be made from a ceramic film with particles embedded in it. They offer the best level of heat rejection and ultraviolet protection. Ceramic tints resist scratching and won't fade.
U.S Tires, Window Tint - How is the Tinting Process Done?
- The first step in cleaning windows is to thoroughly clean them. We use a solution, which will remove any dirt, grease, or other contaminants, from the glass.
- Once the windows are clean we will apply a thin film of adhesive to their surface. The adhesive will hold the tint in position during installation.
- Next we will cut out the tint film and apply it to your window. We then use a scraper to remove any air bubbles beneath the tint.
- Finally, we'll remove any excess tint, and install any hardware necessary (e.g., mounting brackets to sun visors).
Tips For Maintaining Your Tinted Windows
It is important to avoid using harsh cleaning chemicals in order to keep tinted glass looking its best. Use mild soap and water to clean the glass.
Avoid parking in direct light for extended periods. This can cause your tint film to fade and bubble.
Tint Your Own Windows
While you can tint your windows by yourself, it is best to hire professionals. Tinting your windows can be complicated and time-consuming. The tint film may not be applied correctly and can make your windows look ugly.
What Maintenance Is Required for Tinted Windows?
No. No. You can clean your window as you would normally. To avoid damaging tint film, just use mild soap with water.
Conclusion:
Tinted windows can provide many benefits. Tinted windows reduce glare, protect your automobile from UV rays, and can keep your car cooler during the summer. If you are thinking about tinting your window yourself, we recommend hiring professionals.
