The benefits of tint.
Safety: This is one of the most unknown benefits of window tint. Although the windshields of our cars are made of a glass-plastic laminate, the side and rear windows, as well as the sunroof, are made of tempered glass. Tempered glass will shatter into thousands of pieces during an accident. Window tint film holds the majority of these pieces together, so they don’t fly around the cabin and injure occupants. A high-quality film, such as the ones we use at Tint View, will hold the pieces together in the event of an accident.
Looks: There is a reason that vehicles featured in car manufacturers’ advertisements have their windows tinted – they look better. Tint comes in a variety of darkness levels, and isn’t just for sports cars. Window tint is a versatile addition that can be used to make any vehicle look more sporty, rugged, or sophisticated.
Security: Most automotive theft are crimes of opportunity, meaning potential thieves will only break into a car if they can see something valuable inside. Tinting your windows eliminates the ability of thieves to see your valuables – such as a smartphone, wallet, or computer – so your car becomes a less likely target. Alarm systems only deter thieves once they have tried to break into your vehicle, but tint will prevent them from trying.
Glare: Even very light tint shades can seriously reduce glare from direct sunlight, or light that is reflected off wet roads, buildings, or other vehicles. Using window tint will have you squinting less often and make your commute safer.
Heat: Untreated windows let in solar radiation that turns the inside of your car into a sauna. A layer of tint (even light colours) will keep the inside of your car cooler and more comfortable. Not only will your vehicle become a nicer place to be, but it will also lighten the load on your air conditioner which lengthens its lifespan and reduces your fuel consumption.
Health: All window tint, regardless of its darkness, blocks 99% of UVA and UVB rays. These rays degrade the interior surfaces of your car, such as seat upholstery and dashboard materials, and cause sunburns and skin cancer. Keeping the occupants of your vehicle safe, as well as maintaining the finish of the interior surfaces, is easily accomplished with the application of a high-quality window film.
