Ceramic Window Tinting, Yorba Linda

They usually describe the same thing. IR simply stands for infrared, and some companies use it to emphasize that the film is engineered to address infrared heat, which is a key part of what nano-ceramic film does. Kepler IR and IR+ are nano-ceramic ranges, so whichever term you hear locally, what matters is the specific film and shade you are comparing rather than the label on the brochure. Ask your installer to show you the exact product and its published data side by side.

Ask a local tinter whether they carry Kepler film or can get it. For more information, see quick quote.

Kepler's nano-ceramic films are designed to filter ultraviolet light and help manage infrared heat, which is a major contributor to how hot a cabin feels in sunlight. Visible light transmission describes how much light passes through the film and is separate from its solar heat performance, so a darker shade is not automatically the cooler choice. Compare the published figures for the exact film and shade you are considering, and ask your installer which option suits your car and driving.

Alongside our wider car window tinting options, ceramic film appeals to drivers who want comfort as well as appearance. The nano-ceramic construction is designed to help manage solar heat, cut glare and filter ultraviolet light, which makes long drives easier on the eyes and gives interior trim some protection from constant sun. Because the film is non-metallic, it avoids the signal interference associated with older metallized tints. Shade choice then decides the look and the level of daytime privacy you get.

Cost depends on your vehicle, the number of windows treated and the film you choose. A Kepler dealer will confirm pricing for your car when they respond to your enquiry.

Keep abrasive pads and harsh cleaners away from the film. A soft cloth and a mild, ammonia-free cleaner are all that is usually needed. Your installer will tell you how long to wait before rolling the windows down after fitting. There is more detail on our how to clean window tint page.

Professional installers use an IR meter to measure film performance properly, and that is the reliable way to compare products. At home you can only get a rough impression: sit in the car with a window down in direct sun, then raise it and notice how the glass under film feels against your arm compared with untreated glazing. It is a subjective comparison rather than a measurement, so for real numbers ask your installer to demonstrate the film and share its published data.

Window film on vehicles is regulated, and the rules cover things like which windows may be treated and how light must pass through them. Your installer should apply film that keeps your car compliant. See our window tint laws page for the details that apply where you drive, and check the current official wording before booking. Choosing a film is a separate decision from staying within the law, so discuss both with your dealer.

Nano-ceramic film is a step up from basic dyed film. It is engineered to help manage solar heat and glare while filtering ultraviolet light, and because it contains no metal layer it does not interfere with GPS, cell or radio signals the way some metallized films can. Ceramic films are also designed to hold their color rather than turn purple with age. Compare the exact film and shade you are considering so you know what you are getting.

Ceramic film is chosen by drivers who care about how a car looks and how it feels to sit in. The non-metallic construction gives a clean, even finish without signal interference, and the shade range runs from near-clear to deep, so the film can complement the car rather than overwhelm it. For many owners that combination of appearance and everyday comfort is what makes it worth the upgrade.

Kepler supplies window film to independent installers, who handle their own customers. Ask a local tinter whether they carry Kepler film or can get it. Where Kepler availability is not confirmed, it is worth asking the installer whether they can source and install Kepler film for your vehicle.
