3 Choices You'Ll Need To Make When Tinting The Windows In Your Car

Blog

When you tint the auto glass in your vehicle, you are going to need to make a few more choices beyond the fact that you want to tint your windows. You are going to need to decide how dark you want your windows tinted, if you want UV reflecting window tints, and if you want to go with a top-tier brand or an average tint product.

#1 How Dark You Want Your Windows Tinted

The first thing you need to realize is that there are laws in most states that govern how much you can tint your windows as well as what windows you can tint. That means you can't just make all your windows jet black. Check and see what the laws are in your state before you get your windows tinted.

Still, there are various degrees of window tint. You can have a really light tint, or you can go with a darker tint. Think about if you want to prevent people from looking in your vehicle altogether, you just want a little privacy, or if you are just looking for a little protection from the sun.

Most window tint shops have examples of windows with different levels of window tint on them, so you can look at these examples and use them to help guide you in choosing the best window tint for your windows.

#2 If You Want UV Reflective Tint

Window tinting doesn't just change the color of your windows; it can also provide you with protection. When you are driving in your vehicle, with your normal windows, UV light comes right through and hits you. That ultraviolet light is not good for your skin or your eyes.

With a window that that reflects away ultraviolet light, you can limit your exposure to its harmful rays when you are driving in your vehicle.

Not only does UV reflective tint help keep you safe, it can also help keep your car cool. UV reflective window tints can help keep your vehicle cooler during the hot summer months. When you open up your vehicle, it will not feel as stuffy with ultraviolet tint on your windows.

#3 Quality of the Tint

Next, when it comes to tinting your windows, you can usually choose between different manufacturers. As with most products, there are run of the mill, average window tinting products, and top-tier tinting products. If you plan on having your vehicle for a long time, it is often worth it to invest in top-tier tinting products.

When you tint the windows of your vehicle, you need to decide how dark you want the tint to be and if you want ultraviolet reflective tint. Think carefully, as the tint you put on your windows will be around for a while.
