What it does

Professional film that works harder than darker glass

Window tint is a precision-applied film bonded to the interior surface of your windows. High-performance nano-ceramic and carbon formulations absorb infrared heat and block over 99% of UV radiation while maintaining crystal-clear optics and zero interference with mobile phones, GPS systems, and electronic toll readers.

The result is a noticeably cooler cabin through Indiana summers, interior surfaces that resist sun damage and fading, and less glare day and night. Every install is custom-cut to your glass and sealed edge-to-edge in our Elkhart shop for a seamless, professional finish.

Questions

Common window tint questions

What tint darkness is legal in Indiana?
Indiana law (IC 9-19-19-4) requires film on the front door windows and the rear window to let at least 30% of visible light through and to be no more than 25% reflective. Windshield tint is limited to the strip above the AS-1 line. Drivers with a medical need can qualify for an exemption with a certificate from an Indiana physician or optometrist. We'll help you pick a legal shade before we install.
Ceramic or carbon tint: which should I choose?
HITEK Ceramic IR is our top heat-rejection film, blocking up to 75% of infrared heat. HITEK Carbon IR gives a deep black, color-stable look and blocks up to 62% of infrared heat at a lower price. Both block 99% of UV and are non-metallic, so they won't interfere with phones or GPS.
Will nano-ceramic tint interfere with my phone or navigation?
No interference occurs. Nano-ceramic film is non-conductive, so phones, GPS receivers and toll-tag systems function normally without disruption.
When can I use my windows normally after tinting?
Allow 3 to 5 days for complete curing. Temporary haziness and small water droplets during this period are natural and will disappear as moisture evaporates.
What warranty applies to the film?
Our premium films are backed by a lifetime warranty that transfers between owners and covers bubbling, peeling, cracking and color shift across the entire country.
