Our Car Tint Is So Much More Than Colored Glass

Window tinting isn’t just for visual appeal. Although it’s a beautiful addition to any vehicle, it also plays an important role in protecting your vehicle, as well as the driver, and passengers.

Tinted windows help block dangerous UV Rays which are greatly attributed to skin cancer, and deterioration of eye health. UV rays can also wreak havoc on your vehicle’s interior by fading fabrics and breaking down leather and plastic. 

We spend a lot of time in our cars whether it’s our daily work commute, transporting children, or the occasional family road trip, UV exposure isn’t something to take lightly. This is an even larger problem here in South Carolina where the suns rays can be quite harsh.

The Truth About Nano-Ceramic Window Tint And IR Window Tint

Window films, like many other things have experienced immense  technological advancements in the past few years. 

Through all the advancements, many new terms have emerged to describe the new window tint films. Among the new descriptive terms, ceramic tint, nano-ceramic tint, and IR tint are the ones that can be the most confusing.

Below is a summary of what these names mean.

 

IR Tint

“IR” simply refers to infrared heat, and infrared heat heat is the type of heat that you feel from the sun. What’s unique about infrared heat is that it radiates heat onto people, or objects without heating the air. 

Imagine driving in your car on a hot sunny day. Your air conditioner is running full-blast, but you can still feel the heat from the sun on your skin. That heat on your skin is IR heat.

IR tint is a tint that’s designed to reduce IR heat.

Ceramic Tint

Ceramic tint has layers of IR blockers that cause IR heat to bounce back and forth between the layers. The IR heat is ultimately displaced.

Ceramic tint and IR tint are foundationally the same: They’re engineered to reduce IR heat.

Nano-Ceramic Tint 

Nano ceramic tint is an advanced version of standard ceramic tint. Nano ceramic tint has additional layers of infrared blockers that allow it to block between 96% and 99% of IR heat.
Nano-Ceramic tint Offers the highest level of IR heat blocking
Ultimately, each of these films are designed to reduce or even block IR heat.
 
The reality is that nearly every automotive window tint manufacturer in the world has a “ceramic tint” or an “IR tint”, but not all ceramic, nano-ceramic, or IR window films are created equally.  
 
Kavaca Window Films – The Crowned Champion In The World Of Tint.
 
Kavaca is made by Ceramic Pro – the world leader in nano ceramic technology for more than a decade. 
Ceramic Pro has used it’s vast knowledge of nano-ceramic technology to create window films that are world class.
When you compare window film specifications between manufacturers, Kavaca takes the prize, every time.

Ceramic Window Tint vs Regular Tint

Most window tinting shops that sell cheap window tint also provide a very fast installation. Fast, cheap window tint installations are one of the primary reasons that low grade window films bubble and delaminate. While the film itself is low-end and very susceptible to breakdown, the low quality installation causes the film to break down even faster.
