Myth vs Fact
Myth: Dark window tint = better heat
protection
ò
Fact: It's not about how dark it looks;
it’s about what it’s made of.
Many people think the darker the tint,
the better the performance. But here’s
the truth: cheap, dark films can offer zero
real UV or infrared protection. They just
look good.
✅
If you want real heat rejection, the kind
that actually keeps your car cool in Texas
summers you need ceramic window film.
And the wild part? Ceramic films can be
nearly invisible and still outperform dark
dyes. For example, a 70% ceramic film
(light enough for windshields) can block
just as much heat as a limo-dark 5% dyed
film without compromising visibility.
