There are many advantages to tinting your car windows. Some of the most popular reasons why people choose to tint are the cosmetic benefits, the cool looks these films offer as well as the added privacy. But tinting your car’s windows also has benefits to your comfort, health and the longevity of your car’s upholstery and carpets.

But did you know, tinting has health advantages for the driver and passengers?

Certain types of window tint can block up to 99 percent of the ultraviolet rays. Ultraviolet (UV) rays are known for their damaging effects on the human skin and may result in skin cancer. Not only can these UV rays harm us, but they also have damaging effects to the upholstery of your car. By blocking these UV rays, tinting will also prolong the life of the leather and vinyl interior of your car, as well as reduce fading of the carpeting in your car.

Window tint also increases driver and passenger comfort of the eye by lessening eye fatigue. It also reduces glare which results in improved vision when driving. These are serious safety concerns that are resolved through the use of window films.

You may also find that you will not have to use as much conditioning, or may be using it less often, by rejecting heat from entering your car. This will result in your car consuming less fuel, saving you money and also lessening the strain on your engine, possibly even prolonging engine life.

You will enjoy a more comfortable ride if you have privacy window tinting installed on your car. Tinting keeps your car up to 60 percent cooler by repelling the heat and sun especially if you own a black car. Black cars or cars with black interiors tend to draw more heat.

Tinting encourages a more comfortable ride, with the added benefit of increased privacy. Window tints are fast becoming a popular choice for car owners all over New Zealand. Contact Tintacar today to learn more about their window film options.
