Kepler IR and IR+ are nano-ceramic automotive film ranges made for drivers who want to manage solar heat, glare and UV without giving up clarity through the glass. On a Tesla that matters, because the cabin is shaped by large glass areas and a climate system that works harder when the sun is on it. Glazing differs from model to model and year to year, so the right film for your car is the one chosen against your own glass rather than a blanket recommendation.
Kepler builds its automotive film around nano-ceramic technology rather than shade alone, which is why the range runs from near-clear through to very dark. The percentage attached to each film is visible light transmission, meaning the light that passes through it. That figure describes how light or dark the film looks; it is separate from how the film handles solar heat. When you compare options, compare the exact film and the exact shade, and talk through the look you want with your installer.
Plenty of owners arrange film as soon as the car arrives, while the glass is new and the interior is untouched. It is a straightforward time to make the decision: you choose the shade you actually want, rather than living with bare glass through a hot summer and sorting it out later. Ask a local tinter whether they carry Kepler film or can get it.
A Tesla's glass area is generous, which is part of the appeal and also part of the problem on a bright Illinois afternoon. Solar heat coming through the windows raises cabin temperature and leaves the climate system working against it. Nano-ceramic film is designed to address solar heat at the glass, which is where the comfort difference is felt.
Film works at the point the heat arrives. By addressing solar energy at the window rather than after it has filled the cabin, nano-ceramic film helps keep the interior more comfortable on hot days and takes some of the strain off the air conditioning when the car is sitting in full sun.
The benefit shows up in ordinary driving: a cabin that is easier to settle into after the car has been parked out, less glare across the screen and dash, and interior surfaces that spend less time under direct UV. Which of those matters most depends on the film and shade you choose, so describe how and where you park and drive when you talk to your installer.
Kepler's IR and IR+ ranges are nano-ceramic automotive films, engineered so that performance comes from the construction of the film rather than simply from how dark it is. That is what allows a lighter shade to remain a serious option instead of a compromise, and why the shade you like and the film you need can usually be reconciled.
Kepler's automotive film uses nano-ceramic technology aimed at infrared heat, the part of the solar spectrum you feel rather than see. That approach is what separates a modern ceramic film from a simple dyed tint, and it is why the range is described by film and shade together rather than by darkness alone.
Kepler develops film for modern vehicles, including Teslas, where large glazed areas and shaped panels make film choice a considered decision. Glazing varies by model and year, so the sensible starting point is identifying the glass on your own car and then matching film and shade to it. A Kepler dealer can talk you through the IR and IR+ options and what each shade will look like on your vehicle.
Kepler film is a multi-layer construction, with each layer doing a specific job in the finished product rather than being a single tinted sheet. Build quality matters for how the film looks over time as much as how it performs on a hot day, which is why the same film is offered across the whole shade range.
Film specifications are only useful when they are compared like for like. Look at the exact film and the exact shade side by side, keep visible light transmission separate from solar heat performance, and ask your installer to show you the figures for the combination you are actually considering.

Nebula gives your Tesla a deep, dramatic finish with very little light passing through. Daytime privacy from a dark or reflective film depends on the lighting balance inside and outside the car, so it is not a promise of privacy after dark. Check the shade against the rules for each window before booking.
Tell us about your Tesla and the shade you are considering, and ask a local tinter whether they carry Kepler film or can get it. The dealer handles quoting, questions about your model's glass and booking directly with you, so you are dealing with the person who would do the work.
