6 Reasons to Tint Your Car

There are many reasons to tint your car from protecting against health concerns, safety and privacy reasons, as well as preserving your investment in your car. Listed below are some of the to​p reasons that people tint their cars.​

​Once tinting film is applied to a window, the characteristics of how visible light comes into the car changes. Normal auto glass without tint reflects around 5% of visible light (known as VLR%), absorbs another 5% (known as VLA%), and transmits 90% of visible light (known as VLT%) into the car.
​
Depending on the type and quality of tinting film applied to a window, these percentages change dramatically. Some tints are more reflective, and others absorb more light. The number you will most commonly see is the VLT% (Visible Light Transmittance). VLT tells you how much visible light is allowed to shine into the car, and also indirectly how dark the tint looks.

Tinting film doesn't just block visible light. It also blocks harmful cancer-causing ultra-violet (UV-A and UV-B) rays as well as infra-red (IR) rays that cause heat to build up in your car; however, how effective a film is in blocking these rays depends on the type of film, the manufacturer, and the quality of installation.
Avoid Overheating
​Your car's interior can be 60% cool​er during those hot summer days with proper tinting.
Protect Your Skin​​
​​​Harmful UV rays from the sun can cause skin cancer. Tinting your car can block 99% of these damaging rays.    
Accident Protection
​In an auto accident, tinting can help shattered glass hold together, protecting the occupants of the car.
Safer Driving
Enhanced Privacy
Prevent Interior Cracking And Fading
​Tinting reduces dangerous glare from the sun, snow, and other headlights, helping you drive safely.
​Tinting protects your privacy and contents within a car. What a burglar can't see, he won't steal.

LLumar Tint Pricing Chart
Oddly, this is a even harder subject than explaining how window film works. The price for a car tint can vary dramatically from the cheapest fly-by-night shop from $120 to the luxury tint shop's $450 or more. For each of these situations, the price can be considered REASONABLE. What a REASONABLE price is depends on many factors:​

​YOUR CAR TYPE   
Quite simply, some cars are harder to tint than others. When getting a price quote, a Tint Shop always asks you for the make and model of your car. This isn't to see how much money you have and charge you up the wazoo. (Sometimes it is with less reputable tinters)
​
Tinters know which cars take more time to tint properly. Some cars with steep and curved rear windows or easily damaged electronics require panels and speakers to be removed manually from your vehicle. This obviously can drive the cost up. Additionally, each additional square foot of window on your vehicle requires more window film to tint. This makes tinting a SUV or station wagons cost more than sedans.

TYPE OF TINTING FILM​
Just like comparing a pinto to a Ferrari, there are wide performance and cost differences in tinting film. The cheapest tinting film can be many times less in price than more expensive film, but you get what you pay for.
​
Cheap film may look good at the beginning, but they can fail to block the summer heat, fade, turn purple, or bubble soon after installation. Higher quality window film such as fully-metallized sputtered window films offer both advanced performance and a lifetime warranty. These films are usually worth the higher price.

PERFORMANCE WARRANTY​
You are highly encouraged to ask about the Performance Warranty before you pay for tinting services from anybody. Typically these Warranty's can last from as little as 1 year to a Lifetime.
​
Not all Warrantees are created equal! Most warrantees only cover problems such as cracking, glazing, bubbling, and peeling. Some films carry a "Color-Safe Warranty" that gives you peace of mind that if the color of your tint ever changes, it will be replaced.
​
Be Careful! Irresponsible tint shops can also offer "Lifetime Warrantees"; however, if they go out of business next year, who is there to replace your bubbling tint? You should always factor in this "hidden" cost when buying low priced car tint.

DEALER'S REPUTATION
Reputable Tint Shops take great pride in their work. They have high standards in who they hire, the film they use, and overall customer service and experience.
​
Naturally, this increases the cost for them to do business, and they charge more as a result.
