What's The Best Window Tinting Film For My Car?

Updated: Apr 26, 2023

You spend more time on the road and driving than at home or in your office. Therefore, you need to invest in the best auto window tinting film, to make your ride pleasant and as comfortable as possible. Most window films reduce the amount of visible light, which reduces glare, protects you from heat, and the sun’s UV rays, and gives privacy. However, not all auto window films are the same. There are four (4) types of film available for cars or trucks. They include dyed window tint, metallic window tint, carbon window tint, and ceramic window tint.


Dyed window tint is made of polyethylene, dyed, and other UV blockers. This film is an affordable way to get a custom and cool look. Dyed window tint blocks light rays and absorbs some heat. This is the ideal film for those who are looking for privacy, and glare reduction and are not concerned about UV light or infrared light rejection. It is less durable and likely to discolor over time.


Metallic window tint is made with small metallic particles. This gives a reflective or shiny look and blocks out harmful UV rays. Metallic tint creates a mirror look that can change the appearance of your vehicle. The downside is that it interferes with electronics.


Carbon window tint is made with tiny bits of carbon. It does not contain metal and does not interfere with technology. Carbon tint provides heat rejection and protects your car’s interior by keeping it cooler. It has a matte finish. Although, cost-effective, with time it has been known to scratch and damage more easily.


Ceramic window tint is coated with layers of microscopic nano-ceramic particles, which are conducive to heat and are nonmetallic. It protects against 99% of harmful UV rays and reduces glare and heat. Ceramic window tint offers the highest level of all categories with ultimate protection.
