What is window film?

Window film is a very thin, polyester-based film coated with different metals and dyes. It’s applied to the interior surface of glass windows on a vehicle, home, or commercial building. It can only be applied to glass.

How long will window film last?

High-quality window films come with excellent manufacturer warranties. Your vehicle’s tint is typically warranted for the life of your car, while residential and commercial films usually have a 10-year warranty. These warranties usually require professional installation to be valid.

Will window film make my house seem darker inside?

Not at all! Thanks to advances in technology, you can enjoy a truer, clearer view with our neutral or reflective films. They offer all the benefits of darker films—like UV protection, glare reduction, and energy savings—without sacrificing visibility.

Can window film be applied to all kinds of windows, including double-pane?

Yes. Our residential films are specifically designed to be safe for dual-pane windows. Just remember, window film can only be applied to glass windows.

How will window film affect my house plants?

If your plants are already getting enough sunlight, window film will not harm them. In fact, if a plant tends to wilt on a sunny day, it may actually thrive better with film installed. If you’re unsure, you can check with a local nursery to learn about your specific plant’s light needs.

Is taillight tinting legal?

The legality of taillight tinting varies by state and locality. We recommend checking your local laws and regulations before proceeding with this service.

How is ceramic coating different from wax?

Wax is a temporary, topical layer that sits on your paint and needs to be reapplied often. Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer that chemically bonds with your paint, creating a durable, long-lasting protective layer that can last for years.

What does Paint Protection Film (PPF) protect against?

PPF is a transparent film that acts as a shield against rock chips, road debris, scratches, and even harsh winter and summer weather.

What is the benefit of Headlight Restoration?

Headlight restoration removes the foggy, yellowed layer on your headlights, making them look new again. More importantly, it dramatically improves your visibility at night, making your car safer to drive.

What kinds of dents does Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) fix?

PDR is ideal for removing minor dents and dings from your car’s body. We only recommend this service if the paint is not currently damaged.
