Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. What are the benefits of automotive window tinting?

UV Protection: Blocks up to 99% of harmful UV rays, protecting both your skin and your car’s interior from sun damage.
Reduced Glare: Diminishes glare from the sun and headlights, improving visibility and making driving more comfortable.
Enhanced Privacy: Tinted windows prevent prying eyes from seeing into your vehicle, offering more privacy and security.
Temperature Regulation: Helps maintain a cooler temperature inside your vehicle, reducing the need for air conditioning and improving energy efficiency.
2. How long does car window tinting last?
Answer: The lifespan of your window tint can vary depending on the type of film used and environmental conditions, but typically, high-quality tint will come with a lifetime warranty while entry level films may come with up to a 3 year warranty. Ceramic and carbon films tend to last longer than traditional dyed films, providing superior durability and performance.
3. Is car window tinting legal?
Answer: Window tinting laws vary by state, and it's essential to follow your local regulations. In Tennessee, there are specific guidelines regarding the permissible level of tint for different windows. We ensure that your car’s tint is applied in compliance with local laws to avoid any legal issues.
4. What is ceramic coating for cars?
Answer: Ceramic coating is a liquid polymer applied to the exterior of your vehicle to create a hydrophobic surface that repels water, dirt, and other contaminants. It provides a durable layer of protection against scratches, UV rays, and oxidation while making cleaning your car easier. The coating also enhances your car's shine and keeps it looking newer for longer.
5. How long does ceramic coating last?
Answer: The durability of ceramic coating can last 2 to 10 years, depending on factors like the quality of the coating, environmental conditions, and maintenance. With proper care and periodic maintenance, you can maximize the lifespan of your ceramic coating.
6. Can I wash my car after applying ceramic coating?
Answer: Yes, you can wash your car after applying ceramic coating, but it’s recommended to wait at least 24–48 hours for the coating to fully cure. After that, you can wash it as usual, but be sure to use gentle, pH-balanced cleaners to preserve the coating. Regular washing helps maintain the hydrophobic properties of the coating.
7. How long does the car tinting process take?
Answer: The time it takes to tint your vehicle depends on the type of tinting you choose and the size of your car. Typically, it takes between 2 to 4 hours for a standard sedan. Larger vehicles or vehicles with more intricate windows may take longer.
8. Can ceramic coating be applied to all types of vehicles?
Answer: Yes, ceramic coating can be applied to all types of vehicles, including cars, trucks, motorcycles, and even boats. It works on all paint finishes and can be applied to new or used vehicles. We will assess the condition of your vehicle’s paint to ensure the best results.
