Window Tinting Surprise

Depending on the film and the glass it is applied to, window film can cut glare, reduce solar heat and add daytime privacy, while giving vehicles and buildings a cleaner, more finished look. On homes and workplaces it can make rooms with a lot of west-facing glass easier to live with. The right result comes from matching the film and shade to your glazing, so it is worth describing your goals when you enquire about

Surprise automotive window tinting Highlights: • Nano-ceramic films • Automotive and architectural ranges • Independent installers

Start with the goal: heat, glare, privacy, appearance or added glass safety. Then look at the glazing you already have, since the same film behaves differently on different glass. Kepler IR and IR+ are nano-ceramic automotive ranges, and there are separate architectural films for homes and commercial buildings. Remember that visible light transmission describes light passing through and is separate from solar heat performance, so compare the exact film and shade rather than shade alone. An installer can talk the options through with you.

Vehicle window tint is regulated in Arizona, with rules covering how dark and how reflective film may be on different windows. Choosing a film and staying within the law are two separate steps, so check the current requirements before you settle on a shade. You can read the details on our window tinting laws for Surprise page.

It depends on the job. A vehicle's shape, the number and curvature of its windows, tight seals and any old film that needs removing all affect the work, and a house or office varies with the number and size of panes and how easily each one can be reached. The installer who quotes your project is the best person to give you a realistic timeframe once they have seen the glass.

Look for an installer who is happy to discuss film options, show you samples and explain what will happen to your glass. If a shop is not listed as a Kepler dealer, ask whether they can source and install Kepler film for your project. Ready to get started?

Give the film time to cure before you clean it; your installer will tell you how long to wait for the product you have chosen. After that, use a soft cloth and a gentle cleaner, and keep abrasive pads, scrapers and harsh chemicals away from the filmed surface. Regular gentle cleaning keeps the film looking clear.

Solar control film is designed to reduce the amount of solar heat and glare coming through the glass, which can make sun-facing rooms more comfortable through a long Arizona summer. How much difference it makes depends on the film, the glazing and how the space is used, so it helps to talk through the room and its windows with an installer before choosing a product.

For many owners it is a practical way to deal with heat, glare or privacy without replacing glazing. Reflective films give daytime privacy when it is brighter outside than inside, which is different from privacy after dark. Safety and security films can help hold broken glass together, though no film guarantees against entry or injury. Anti-graffiti film is a separate category: a removable surface layer that can be replaced to restore appearance when damage is confined to that layer.

Kepler films are supplied with warranty documentation, and the terms depend on the product and how it is installed. Ask your dealer to confirm what applies to the film you choose before work begins. You can read more on our car window tinting and home window tinting pages.
