7 Reasons to Get Your Windows Tinted

By Mitchell Schaffer 11 Comments

Window tinting has become a very important part of our business over the past several years.  Let’s face it, it makes your vehicle look better.  Many of our customers have their windows tinted for visual appeal, but there are many other reasons to consider having a high-quality film applied to your windows.  I will outline the 7 top reasons to consider a film application:

  • Decrease Interior Heat – Quality window film can provide up to a 78% reduction in heat transfer.  This reduces the sun’s effect of heating up the inside of your car decreasing the amount of time that you will need to use your air conditioner.  This can result in extending the life of the vehicle’s AC system.
  • Energy Savings – As stated above, reducing interior heat can reduce the demand for AC use.  This can have a significant impact on gas mileage and a savings at the pump.  who wouldn’t want that?
  • Reduce Interior Fading – Quality film can block up to 99% of UV ray.  This help to reduce fading of your seats, carpets, dash and wood trim.  It also works to extend the life of these items.
  • Reduce Health Risks – Exposure to the sun is known to cause potential health risks to the eyes and skin. By blocking 99% of UV light, window film will also act as a “sunscreen” to protect from the harmful effects of the sun.
  • Reduces Hazardous Glare – Glare while driving can blind vision and create a dangerous condition.  Window film applied to a vehicle’s side and rear windows can significantly reduce glare.
  • Increase Safety and Security – Accidents can turn a window into thousands of dangerous shards of glass.  Window film can act to hold the glass together during an accident.  It can also impede a would-be thief from gaining access to your vehicle.
  • Enhance Appearance – Most shops offer varying shades of window film to appeal to almost any taste.  If you do not want to darken the windows, but still want the benefits listed above, we have a film for that too!

Due to the high quality of the film that we offer, Mobile Edge warranties their film installations against cracking, fading, and bubbling for as long as you own the vehicle.  Stop in to go over your specific needs and to get a free quote.

    I don’t think most people realize the actual benefits of getting their windows tinted. It looks great on a car but the benefits you mention are great! I especially like the idea that it decreases the heat of the car. I live in a hot desert and because of this, vehicles can get amazingly hot in the summer. It’s like walking into an oven! So being able to reduce the temperature inside the car is a huge plus!

    Having my windows tinted was a decision that paid for itself! I actually save a lot of gas by not using my a/c near as much.

    It’s interesting that you mention that having your car’s windows tinted can help protect the interior from fading. I want to make sure the upholstery in my car stays in good condition, so I’m thinking about having the windows tinted this month. I’m going to look for a reputable business in my area that does window tinting for cars.

    Wow, I never knew that UV rays could be so harmful to many things like skin and eyes. This makes me think of my current home and how it’s in an area that still gets some sunlight even at this time of the year, making it hard to adjust to. If window tinting can do this for a car, I’ll look for any tinting services that can get me some for my car and maybe even my house since we have a lot of windows installed into it.

    Thank you for taking the time to educate people by writing this article. The average person does not know much about window tinting, so it is good that someone is taking the time to put high quality material out there to inform and educate. It helps the small business owner like me. We recently opened a power washing operation here in Richmond Virginia, and we like to come across things like this. You did a wonderful job. Keep up the good work!

    It’s great that you talked about how tinting a car’s windows come with energy-saving features. Recently, my wife and I purchased a second-hand vehicle for both of us, and we’re eager to improve it. We want to make some changes to the car, so we’ll be sure to look into that. Thanks for the information on window tinting and its benefits.

    […] Tinting the windows of your home can help to protect your assets – like fine art, linens, and furniture. The sun’s UV rays will cause very gradual wear and tear on these items, eventually leading to issues like discoloration, rips, and tears. Tint reduces the amount of UV rays that get inside your home, and thus, slow this process down considerably. […]
