Window Tint Houston TX

Window tint has come a long way over the years. Cheap dye films are a thing of the past. Carbon and ceramic window films are the highest quality films available and offer style and incredible protection. While window film protects the vehicle, having it installed properly ensures the film won’t lift or bubble and stays looking seamless for years to come. When you choose AFS to tint your vehicle, you choose quality from start to finish. AFS is not only a nationally recognized training facility for tint installers, but our technicians have been trained by owner Mike Norng, a nationally recognized industry trainer himself. Auto Film Specialists has two convenient Houston locations. Both of our shops provide premium carbon and ceramic window tint.

Is Ceramic Window Tint Worth it?

Designed to provide superior heat reduction, glare control, and UV protection, ceramic window tint takes automotive comfort and safety to a whole new level. Ceramic window tint offers unparalleled longevity, unbeatable durability, and enhanced performance making it a cost-effective investment for almost any vehicle. At Auto Film Specialists we believe in only providing the highest quality window films available on the market. With ceramic window tint not only does it protect your vehicle and its passengers from harmful UV rays, but it also enhances vehicle aesthetic, privacy, and security. If you are looking for the best car window tint, ceramic tint installed by a certified window tint professional like us here at AFS is the optimal choice.

Ceramic Window Tint vs Regular Window Tint

When comparing regular car window tint to ceramic window tint, there are a few key factors to consider. Regular window tint, often made from dyed or metalized polyester, helps reduce glare and adds more privacy to your vehicle sometimes interfering with cell signals and GPS. On the other hand, ceramic window tint, a top-tier product in the industry, offers superior infrared heat and UV rejection, enhancing comfort and safety without any signal interference. Ceramic window tint provides up to 97% infrared heat rejection meaning it helps to significantly lower interior vehicle temperatures, keeping your car cooler and helping to maximize fuel efficiency. And The National Skin Cancer Foundation recommends ceramic car window tint as an effective way to help prevent skin cancer.

Tesla Window Tint

Choosing the best window tint for your Tesla involves considering factors such as heat rejection, UV protection, and aesthetics. Ceramic window tint emerges as the top choice due to its outstanding properties. It offers the highest level of infrared heat rejection, keeping your Tesla cooler and enhancing the efficiency of its battery. The superior UV-blocking capacity of ceramic tint not only protects you and your car’s interior from harmful rays but also affords an increased level of privacy and security. Combined with its sleek appearance and zero signal interference, ceramic window tint truly represents a worthwhile investment for every Tesla owner.

AFS can install a CLEAR CERAMIC HEAT REJECTION FILM across your windshield to block infrared rays from heating up your car’s interior. This type of clear window tint is TOTALLY LEGAL and doesn’t obstruct your field of vision.

Window Tint Common Questions

Ceramic window tint is the most durable window film on the market and offers incredible protection and style for your vehicle. Made up of non-conductive ceramic particles, ceramic window tint is the highest quality film on the market. Ceramic tint provides superior infrared heat rejection, UV protection, privacy, and no signal interception. Ceramic window film, as with any other type of window tint for your car, should always be installed by a professional installer that is not only certified but has the experience along with the certification. Remember, you get what you pay for. Cutting corners when you have window tint installed typically ends up costing you more in the long run. It’s not just about properly installing the film, but proper prep before and car after. Our ceramic window film comes with a lifetime warranty.

Carbon and Ceramic window tint are both great options when it comes to high-quality & durable window film. Both films help reject solar or infrared heat without any signal interference. So what are the differences between carbon and ceramic window film? Carbon window film is created using carbon particles mixed into the film. It is a step up from metalized window film and provides great heat rejection. However, ceramic window film does all that and more, or should we say is the superior option for ultimate protection. Ceramic window films are created using ceramic particles that help to prevent sun glare, block UV rays and reject a higher level of solar heat. Ceramic window films add class and style to any vehicle - car, truck, SUV, exotic, EV, or luxury - and enhances privacy. Anti-shattering properties also promote vehicle safety & security. While ceramic window film may be the creme de la creme of window films, carbon window films are another incredible window tint option depending on your budget & window tint needs.
