What is window tinting?

Window tinting is the process of applying a thin film to the windows of a car or other vehicle. One of the main benefits of window tinting is to reduce the amount of visible light and ultraviolet (UV) radiation that can enter through the windows and cause glare, fading, and heat buildup in the interior. It also helps to keep out excessive amounts of heat from entering into the vehicle during hot days, which can make it more comfortable for passengers.

Types of Car Window Tints

When it comes to window tint types, there are two main options to choose from. The most popular type is the dyed window tint, which is made from a thin layer of dyed film applied to the inside of the glass. This type provides a great deal of privacy and blocks out harmful UV rays that can cause fading and damage to the interior.

The second option is ceramic window tint, which is a high quality product intended to further reduce the amount of heat build up inside of a vehicle. Ceramic tint offers enhanced heat rejection and 99% UV resistance, however it is typically more expensive.

Dyed Tint

This option is one of the most popular types of car window tinting, and it’s made from a thin layer of coloured material applied to the inside of the glass by our expert technicians. It’s also the most affordable option when it comes to window tinting, making it a great choice for those on a budget.

Dyed film also stands up well against wear and tear, so you don’t have to worry about replacing it every few years like other types of tints. And because it’s dyed into the film, you won’t have to worry about colour fading over time either.

Ceramic Tint

Ceramic window tints are a type of window tinting that uses advanced technology to block UV rays and reduce heat transmission while still allowing visible light to pass through. Unlike traditional tinting, which can interfere with cell phone signals and GPS, ceramic film does not contain metal particles (metalized tints) and is therefore non-conductive.

This means you can enjoy the benefits of tinted windows without any negative impact on your technology. Ceramic film also has a longer lifespan and is more resistant to fading and discoloration compared to other tinting materials. If you’re looking for a high-performance, long-lasting window tinting solution, ceramic film is an excellent choice.

Window tinting services can cost anywhere from a $150-800, depending on the type of vehicle and the level of tinting desired.

Legal Tints in Ontario

According to Ontario law, side windows must allow at least 70% of light to pass through, while rear side windows and the rear window can have a darker tint, but must still allow at least 30% of visible light to pass through.

Exceeding these limits can result in a fine, so it’s important to ensure the type of tint you choose is within the legal limit. However, when installed properly, window tints can provide privacy, reduce heat and glare, and even enhance the aesthetic appeal of your vehicle.

Cost of Window Tinting Services

Generally speaking, cars with bigger windows will cost more to tint than smaller vehicles for obvious reasons. Additionally, darker tints will usually be more expensive than lighter ones. Of course, there are other factors that may affect the price of window tinting such as the type of film used, costs for professional installation, and any additional services you might need.

If you’re looking for a cheaper option, you may consider only getting only some of your windows tinted – for example – your rear window, along with the back seats, passenger and drivers side. Depending on your budget, we have a solutions for you!

Higher-quality films provide superior protection against UV rays, compared to poor quality wraps, and are therefore much more resistant to fading and discolouration. Outpacer uses only the highest quality automotive window films to invest into your vehicle, ensuring longevity and peace of mind.

Factors to Consider When Choosing Window Tint Films

When choosing window tint films for your vehicle, there are several factors to consider.

First, you should decide on the type of film that best suits your needs and budget. Dyed films are a popular choice due to their affordability and ability to block up to 99% of UV rays. Ceramic window tints offer superior protection against heat and glare but may come with a higher price tag.

You should also consider the darkness of the tint you desire; darker tints provide more privacy but may not be legal in certain areas. Depending on the level of darkness, it may not comply with your local window tinting laws!

Finally, make sure you choose a reputable installer (Outpacer) who is experienced in the correct application of window tint films to ensure the best long-term results. At Outpacer, we’ve been installed window tints for many happy customers all across Simcoe County and Southern Ontario.

Window Tint Care

If you’ve just had your car windows tinted, it’s important to take good care of them to ensure they last as long as possible.

Most importantly, do not roll down your windows for at least three days after installation to allow the tint to properly cure. When cleaning your windows, use a soft, microfibre cloth and a mild, ammonia-free cleaning solution. Avoid using any abrasive or harsh cleaners, as well as sharp objects or scrapers that could damage the tint.

With proper care, your window tint should provide you with privacy and UV protection for years to come.
