6 Reasons Why Ceramic Window Tint Wins
You want your ride to look its best, so you want the best for it. Unfortunately, accessories and upgrades add up quickly. But, you want to make sure you’re making a good investment. If you’re tinting your glass, you’re probably wondering the difference between ceramic tint vs regular window tint.
Ceramic Tint vs Regular Window Tint?
No Contest. In our OCD opinion, ceramic every time. We give your vehicle the protection it deserves. By the way, we can tint the windows of your home or office.
Here are 6 reasons why ceramic window tint is superior:
1. Heat Rejection
First of all, ceramic tints are highly effective at blocking infrared (IR) rays. These are the main contributors to heat buildup inside your vehicle or home. Regular tints often block UV rays but don’t block much IR light. Ceramic tints can block up to 50% or more of the heat from the sun. This makes your car or space cooler without needing as much air conditioning.
2. UV Protection
Ceramic tints provide excellent protection against harmful UV rays, which can cause skin damage and fading of interior materials. While regular tints typically block a percentage of UV rays, ceramic tints can block nearly 99% of them.
3. Clarity & Visibility
Ceramic tints don’t interfere with signal reception so you won’t experience issues with your car’s GPS, radio, or cell phone signals. Regular window tints, especially metallic ones, can interfere with these signals due to metallic particles in the film.
4. Durability
Ceramic films are more durable and longer-lasting compared to regular tints. They don’t fade, discolor, or bubble as quickly as non-ceramic films, which degrade over time due to exposure to sunlight and weather. OCD uses products with LIFETIME warranties. Talk about protecting your investment.
5. Enhanced Privacy & Aesthetics
Ceramic tints offer great privacy and a sleek look without the reflective, shiny finish of metallic tints. This can be desirable for people who want a more subtle, clean appearance.
6. Improved Comfort
Since ceramic tints block a large portion of the heat and UV rays, the interior of the vehicle or home stays cooler and more comfortable, reducing the need for air conditioning. That’s a big deal when you live in Louisiana! Especially in a building. Less AC means lower utility bills. And, I’m sure no one likes getting into their car when it feels like an oven.
At OCD, we install 2 quality products: HITEK and Geoshield. HITEK professional-grade films provide privacy, durability, and class with every application. Their ceramic tints offer 99% UV protection, up to 95% IR (Heat) rejection, and impressive warranties.
