Question 1

Is window tinting legal in Florida?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Automotive window tinting is completely legal in Florida with specific requirements. According to Florida Statute 316.2951, front side windows must allow more than 28% of light in (28% VLT minimum), while rear side windows and back windows can be any darkness level if your vehicle has dual side mirrors. Our certified installers ensure every window tinting installation complies with Florida state law, so you never have to worry about tickets or legal issues.

Question 2

How long does window tinting installation take?

Accepted Answer

Most automotive window tinting installations take 2-4 hours depending on your vehicle size and the number of windows being tinted. We offer same-day service for most vehicles in Melbourne, FL and surrounding Space Coast areas. After installation, the window film needs 3-7 days to fully cure. During this curing period, you may notice small water bubbles—this is completely normal and will disappear as the film dries and adheres properly.

Question 3

What warranty do you offer on window tinting?

Accepted Answer

All our window tinting installations include a comprehensive lifetime warranty protecting against bubbling, peeling, fading, and discoloration. This warranty covers both materials and professional workmanship for as long as you own your vehicle. Additionally, our premium ceramic window films include manufacturer warranties ranging from 10 years to lifetime depending on the specific product you choose. Your investment is fully protected.

Question 4

How much does automotive window tinting cost?

Accepted Answer

Window tinting cost varies based on your vehicle type, number of windows, and film quality you choose. Sedans typically range from $150-$400, while SUVs and trucks run $200-$500. Premium ceramic window tint costs more upfront but offers superior heat rejection (up to 65%), better UV protection (99%), and longer lifespan.

Question 5

Can window tinting be removed if needed?

Accepted Answer

Yes, professional window tinting can be safely removed without damaging your vehicle's windows or defrosters. We use proper techniques and specialized tools to ensure clean, adhesive-free removal. If you need existing old window tint removed before installing new film, we can handle that as part of your service. Many customers choose to upgrade from faded, bubbling old tint to our premium ceramic or carbon window films.

Question 6

How do I care for my new window tinting?

Accepted Answer

For the first 3-7 days after window tinting installation, avoid rolling down your windows and don't clean them—the film needs time to cure properly. After the curing period, clean your tinted windows with a soft microfiber cloth and ammonia-free window cleaner (ammonia can damage window film). Never use abrasive materials, paper towels, or sharp objects on tinted windows. With proper care, quality automotive window tinting can last 10+ years in Florida's climate.
