The Different Types of Window Tints

Did you know there are different types of window tints?

Each type has their own pros and cons. Here are some tint types:

Metalized Window Tint

Metalized window tint is 4 layers thick – an adhesive layer bonds to your windows, the second layer blocks UV and infrared rays, the third layer contains metallic particles that reflect heat and give your windows a darker appearance, and the final layer is a protective topcoat. Metalized tints block glare, reduce heat, and don’t fade. However, the metallic particles can mess with the technology in your car, like your radio and cell phone.

Carbon Window Tint 

Carbon window tints are made of hundreds of microlayers of polymer and carbon. The carbon blocks infrared rays, reduces UV rays, and keeps your cabin cooler while being fade resistant. This is a more expensive option than the previous type of tint.

Elevated Restyling recommends nanoceramic window tints for the greatest benefits and performance. Read about nanoceramic tints on our website! (LINK to KWP)
