1.Heat Reduction

Depending on the type of film chosen, we can reduce the heat build up by up to --%. This enables the air conditioning system in your vehicle to work more efficiently and with less energy required.

2.Reduce Fading

Tinted films can reduce ultra violet light (UV) by 99%. This in conjunction with the heat reduction will help in the prevention of fading of rubber trims and wood, vinyl and interior carpets. It can also prolong the life of the leather seats and the vinyl door cards.

3.Protection from UV rays

The principal cause of skin cancer and premature skin aging are attributed to the suns UV rays. The right film can block 99% of the sun's UV rays protecting ourselves and our families. UV protective film is the only way to guarantee stopping ultra violet light. Roller blinds and other such alternatives do not offer permanent and complete cover from the sunlight we need to protect ourselves from.

4.Reduce Glare And Driver Fatigue

Glare reduction is dependent on the density of the film chosen. All forms of glare when driving are potentially dangerous. Reduced glare from headlights and reflective surfaces the can make the journey considerably safer, highly beneficial if you are a high mileage driver. The installation of a sun strip can be advantageous particularly in the winter months when the sun is much lower in the sky.

5.Increased Safety and Security

Main advantages of using a tinted film is prevention against the ‘opportunist’ intruder. The view into your vehicle will be dramatically reduced, keeping your valuables from being seen. Certain films will give a small amount of protection from the glass being broken by an intrude.

Technical Information

All of the installed tints are applied to the inside of the vehicle. We film all of our cars in our auto tint shop which is a controlled environment. We endeavor to install the tint dust free and quality is our aim. We bond them to the glass and we guarantee them from discoloring and delaminating.

All window films have an anti scratch layer built into them. This is for general wear and tear however if you put something sharp against the film it will scratch. Most windows now have what is known as a DOT MATRIX effect around the outside edges and this means the film will sit slightly proud of the glass.

We do not offer a mobile tinting service as the environment we work in must be to our high standards to provide the best quality work.
