Why Get Your Windows Tinted
Tinting your car windows improves comfort by reducing heat, blocks harmful UV rays to protect your skin and interior, enhances privacy, and adds a sleek, stylish look. Plus, it helps reduce glare for safer driving.
How Long Do Tinted Windows Last
Tinted windows typically last between 5 to 10 years, depending on the quality of the film, exposure to sunlight, maintenance, and installation quality. Higher-quality films, like ceramic or metallic tints, last longer and are more resistant to fading and discoloration. Proper care, such as gentle cleaning and avoiding harsh chemicals, can also help extend their lifespan. However, extreme heat or direct sunlight can speed up degradation, especially for lower-quality tints.
How Dark Can I Make My Windows
In Melbourne, window tinting laws are regulated to ensure safety and visibility. For passenger vehicles, the legal limits are as follows:
- Front windows (driver and passenger side): Must allow at least 35% of visible light to pass through, meaning the tint can block up to 65% of light.
- Rear side windows and rear windshield: Can be darker, allowing a minimum of 20% light transmission, meaning up to 80% of light can be blocked.
- Front windshield: Tint is only allowed on the top 10-15% of the windshield (known as the “sunstrip”), and this must allow at least 75% light through.
If you’re looking for a tint that suits both your personal preference and these legal requirements, 88 Tinting can help you choose the right shade for your vehicle. They offer a range of tint options and can advise on the best tint to match both your needs and the regulations, ensuring that your car remains legal and stylish.
Where Does Window Tint Get Applied
Window tinting is applied to the interior surface of your vehicle’s windows. The process involves cleaning the windows, cutting the tint film to size, and applying it with a special adhesive. The film is smoothed out to remove air bubbles, ensuring a flawless finish. This can be done on side windows (front and rear), the rear windshield, and the top section of the front windshield (for a sunstrip). The result is enhanced privacy, UV protection, and heat reduction, all while complying with local tinting regulations.
What If I Already Have Exisiting Window Tint
88 Tinting can expertly remove your existing window tint before applying a fresh layer. Their team uses specialized tools and techniques to carefully peel off the old tint without damaging the glass, ensuring a smooth, clean surface for the new film. Whether your tint is peeling, bubbling, or simply outdated, 88 Tinting makes the removal process quick and hassle-free, leaving your windows ready for a new, professional application of tint that suits your needs.
