Benefits Of Tinting Your Auto Windows
Heat rejection and a custom look for your auto are the two primary reasons that most people consider auto window tinting. But there are many other good reasons to tint your windows. Window tinting substantially reduces glare. Whether it's the blinding glare of the sun or the headlights of a night-time tailgater, tinted windows are an answer to the problem. Tinting protects your interior from harmful UVA and UVB rays. Tinting has always been associated with increased security for your auto, since a would-be thief is less likely to bother with what he cannot see. Recently, some window film manufacturers have introduced safety tinting that can strengthen your windows to the point that it's even difficult to break through the windows using a baseball bat! In the event of an auto accident, window tinting can help shattered glass hold together, helping to prevent injuries inside of the car as a result of sharp glass splinters. Tinting the windows of your automobile can provide years of added comfort and safety to you and your auto.

Dollar for dollar, window tinting is one of the best aftermarket investments to improve the looks of your car and to help protect your interior.

When I first called Perfect Darkness to get my free estimate, they immediately offered to tint my windows that same day! The owner of the business was so friendly and he helped me find the perfect tint that would look great on my car. They did an awesome job and it only took a couple of hours. They are fast, skilled, and strive to satisfy their costumers. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a tinting job. Just be prepared for your car to look extra HOT after the job is done! - Vanessa, Napa, BMW, 7/24/07

Educate Yourself Before Buying!
While the decision to tint your windows seems like a simple one, a little research will show that there is a lot more to consider than it first appears. From a monetary perspective, the price for tinting can vary substantially from one shop to another for the same vehicle... sometimes as much as double! This is partially due to the difference in experience and efficiency from one installer to the other. Often, the difference is due to variations in the materials used. There are many different films available, from many manufacturers. Selection of film type (non-reflective, died films, full metal, etc.) and color (gray, smoke, charcoal, bronze, etc.) is primarily a matter of personal preference. But, whatever your decision, insist on the best quality material... you will be thankful in the years to come! There are also different installation methods. Rear windows can usually be formed from one piece of tinting material. The one-piece rear window installation, when possible, is preferable over the rear window being installed in several pieces. One-piece rear windows can also cost more due to the extra time and expertise needed for this type of tinting installation. The price each shop charges for vehicles can depend on several variables. Three of the most important are:

1. Brand Name
2. Type of material used
3. Quality of the installation itself The major tinting manufacturers usually have three different qualities of tinting materials available to the local tinting shops: 1. The lowest quality is referred to as a non-reflective/dyed material. This type of tinting, usually the cheapest, has the shortest guarantee, and has a tendency to turn purple and form bubbles over time.

2. Next is the hybrid or high performance tinting which is the best selling product nationwide, the big difference is hybrid tinting rejects much more solar heat and the product warranties are much better than the standard non-reflective products. Most major tinting manufacturers offer extended or lifetime warranties for the hybrid/high performance products.

3. The next grades of products are the relatively new full metal tinting materials. These products usually have the same or slightly higher solar heat rejection statistics when compared to hybrid tinting materials. The warranties for full metal tinting are usually lifetime. Care should be taken in choosing what type of tinting material best suits your needs. Making the right decision on having Perfect Darkness tint your windows will add comfort, beauty, safety and value to your auto for years to come.
