    Carbon Window Tints<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Carbon tint is often applied as a window tint as an aesthetic choice. It has a matte finish so creates a unique style for your automobile. Carbon tint is good for reducing the entry of infrared light into your car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The carbon film is one of the darker options when it comes to window tint. This makes it useful for limiting UV rays from damaging your car’s interior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Ceramic Window Tint<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    The ceramic films for auto tinting are the top quality when it comes to window tints for your car. Ceramic window tints absorb light which results in excellent visibility regardless of the shading level of the ceramic window film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The particles in ceramic tinting are ceramic particles (not metal) so the ceramic tint can reduce heat in a way that metallic tint film cannot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Dyed Window Tint film<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Dyed window tinting is almost exclusively for aesthetics. Dyed films provide a dark level of shade, and increase privacy, but the dyed film as a window tint doesn’t do the best job of minimizing heat or reducing glare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Dyed tinting is multilayered including an adhesive layer that is applied directly to the automobile windows, while the outside offers a scratch-resistant quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Dyed tints or dyed films are a popular choice for car window tinting because although they are not incredibly functional for useful purposes, they do provide some privacy and shade inside the vehicle and improve the look of your vehicle, too. Another benefit of dyed film window tint is that it is affordable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Hybrid Tint<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Hybrid films for car window tints are a great option because, as the name implies, hybrid window tints are the best of both worlds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    This type of window tint film combines both metalized tint and dyed tint which makes it a great option for car tint. Tinted window switch hybrid film does a good job of blocking out heat from the car’s interior, while also creating privacy and a sleek look for your car.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Metalized Tint<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Metalized window tints contain metallic particles within the metalized film. These metal particles serve to block UV light, protect car windows, and tend to be very durable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Metalized tinting has a strong reflective quality due to these metal particles, so when it comes to appearance, metallic window tints may create a different look than drivers prefer. However, metalized window tinting does offer shatter-proof protection to auto windows, so it could be the best option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
