6 Reasons You Should Get a Window Tint

Normally speaking, when someone mentions a pro tinting job, you’ll think of aesthetics. The idea is that it is more of an enhancement for your truck than anything else.


But, there’s a whole ‘nuther can o’ worms to open for all the reasons and benefits behind getting a windshield tint. Here at Dealership Autoplex Collision Center, we get them all; those looking at car window tinting for privacy and those wanting to get a sheet of sun stoppers to protect the little ones hangin’ in the back.


Yet, folks are still thinking it’s about the looks more than anything else. And, while we can’t deny it’ll make your wheels look good, we’re fixin’ ta get all the benefits over to you.


So, whether you’re in your Texas Cadillac, an SUV or the coupe, here are the six things y’all’ll get when you take your wheels into the autobody shop for car window tinting:


1.    You’ll Get More Privacy


Getting car window tinting for privacy is one of the most popular and common reasons for getting a pro tinting job.


Sometimes it’s a case of making sure nobody is glaring into your car and looking at the small’uns in the back. Other times it’s a case of protecting any valuable items you might want to leave in the vehicle while you head into the shop. Ensuring nobody’s prying eyes are going to lock-in on something they shouldn’t is a breath of fresh air.


2.    You’ll Get Reduced Sun Glare


Getting your vehicle fitted with sun stoppers is an important factor for two reasons:


The first is that you’ll allow your internal leathers and fabrics to retain their original colors and their original value as an asset.


The second is that, as a driver, you’ll experience less sun glare from the direct sun or from reflections that could hinder your vision or get you sent into the autobody shop for a whole new reason.


3.    You’ll Get Shattered Glass Protection


The way your car will get its shiny new window tint, it’ll have a film applied to the window. These films, whether they’re for window tinting, sun screening or sheer glass protection are all designed to increase your window’s shatter resistance in the event of a collision.


With this, you’ll avoid injury, you’ll avoid damage to your interior and you’ll avoid having glass spill out and injure others. Another benefit of this protection is that anyone seeming more slippery than a pocketful o’ puddin’ will have a harder time getting into your car.


4.    You’ll Get More Heat Rejection


We all know the Texas sun shines bigger and stronger, much like everything else. With this, the inside of your vehicle will become sweltering.


Yes, y’all could get the aircon switched on as soon as you scoot onto the seat, but wouldn’t it be better to just get into a cooler set of wheels?


With car window tinting for privacy, you’ll get a tint grade that can block anything from 35-65% of heat build-up. So, you get a cooler vehicle and you cut down on the gas consumption.


5.    You’ll Get UV Blockage


In the same light as the film being able to reject heat, the film has a coating to block UV penetration. Meaning, any little’uns are safe in the back, your skin is safer behind the wheel and you’ll no longer be a part of the 74% of drivers likely to develop skin cancers on the driver’s side.


In fact, just getting a windshield tint will block up to 99% of the harsher UV rays from the sun.


6.    You’ll Get Your Wheels Back Looking Purty


Finally, your vehicle will look good. The black-out windows, having a Texas chrome job, a TOFF bedliner, a car wrap or a custom paint job are all some of the best aesthetic enhancements we see out on the Texan roads. 


So, while there are practical aspects and benefits to having a window tint, there’s no denying that getting your car back from the autobody shop and looking at the new blacked out windows is a good feeling.
