Why It Matters

The difference, done right.

Heat

Infrared Heat Rejection

Ceramic film rejects a huge share of the infrared heat that actually makes you feel hot, so the cabin stays cooler and your AC works less.

UV

99% UV Block

Blocks 99% of UV rays — protecting your skin on long drives and stopping your dash, leather and trim from fading and cracking.

Clarity

No Signal Interference

True ceramic (not metal) tint won't fade to purple, won't bubble, and never interferes with GPS, cell, radio or keyless entry. Lifetime warranty.

Window tint isn't just about looks — the right film completely changes how your car feels to drive. Cheap dyed tint fades to purple, bubbles, and barely touches the heat. Quality nano-ceramic tint like XPEL's is a different product entirely: it rejects the infrared energy that actually makes you feel hot, blocks 99% of UV, cuts blinding glare, and stays optically clear and color-stable for the life of the car. Because it's ceramic and not metal, it never interferes with your phone signal, GPS, radio or keyless entry.

We carry XPEL's complete tint lineup so you can match the film to your goals and budget. CS is a beautiful, color-stable ceramic with strong UV and solid heat rejection — a big step up from standard tint. XR adds significantly more infrared and total heat rejection, so the cabin stays noticeably cooler. XR Plus is the flagship: maximum infrared rejection and total solar energy rejection for the coolest, most comfortable drive XPEL makes. Watch the video below and we'll help you pick.

Every install is computer-cut to your exact glass and hand-finished for clean edges with no gaps or light leaks — and we install to New York's legal limits so you stay compliant. All of it is backed by a lifetime warranty against bubbling, peeling and purpling. Tell us your vehicle and which windows you want done for an exact quote.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

What's the difference between CS, XR and XR Plus?

All three are nano-ceramic and block 99% of UV. CS is a great-looking, color-stable ceramic with solid heat rejection at a friendly price. XR steps up infrared and total heat rejection noticeably. XR Plus is the top tier — maximum infrared and total solar energy rejection, so it feels dramatically cooler. The video above breaks it down.

Is window tint legal in New York?

NY requires front side windows and the windshield to let at least 70% of light through. Rear and back side windows can be any darkness. We install to keep you compliant — and a medical exemption can change what's allowed.

What tint percentage should I choose?

Lower VLT is darker. Many drivers run a 70% ceramic up front purely for heat (with full visibility) and go darker — 20–35% — on the sides and rear for looks and privacy.

Will ceramic tint mess with my phone or sensors?

No. Unlike cheap metallic films, XPEL ceramic tint is non-conductive, so it won't interfere with cell signal, GPS, radio, Bluetooth or keyless entry.

How long does tint take to cure?

It's dry to the touch right away, but full cure takes a few days to a couple of weeks depending on weather. Leave the windows up during that period and any haze or small water pockets will clear on their own.

Does the tint come with a warranty?

Yes — XPEL ceramic tints carry a lifetime warranty against bubbling, peeling, cracking and color change.
