FAQ
Is window tint the same material as a decorative window film?
No. Window tint uses a polyester (PET) solar control or ceramic coated film rather than the PVC used for cut vinyl, frosted and one way vision products, because its job is to manage heat and glare rather than decorate or obscure the glass.
Where is window tint applied?
Window tint is applied to the interior face of glass, whether on a building or a vehicle, so the adhesive side sits against the glass and the film is protected from direct weathering.
Does window tint reduce glare as well as heat?
Yes, solar control and ceramic window films are designed to cut both solar heat gain and visible glare through the glass, which is their main functional difference from a purely decorative film.
