What we do
- You book an appropriate appointment time and place convenient to you.
- Our uniformed personnel will arrive, only requiring access to a powered plug socket.
- We then clean the car windows with 100% pure water to clear away any dirt or unseen debris before we tint them.
- We might need to detach the door cards to access the complete window. This is done to the best professional standard.
- When the windows have been tinted, we ask that you don’t use the windows for at least 7 days so that they can completely dry, this preserves all the edges of the tint.
- We are then able to accept payment by, bank transfer, cash, or card.
What window tint shade is the right choice for your vehicle?
Choosing the correct tint shade can be difficult. Here are some questions to ask yourself:
- Is the tint for style and looks?
- Is it to look after children or animals from heat or UV rays?
- Do you want to conceal valuables out of sight?
From your responses to those questions our trained specialists can help you to choose the correct shade. Here are the three main shades to choose from:
Light tint – This is a subtle tint providing protection from UV rays but giving total visibility even in darkness.
Medium tint – This is the same as the factory provides for many cars, it offers shelter from UV rays, heat & also adds a little privacy.
Blackout tint – This tint is the most widely selected, it protects from heat, UV rays and gives absolute privacy.
Which car windows can we tint?
We’re regularly asked this question. To start with, let us describe how tint is measured.
The percentage produced for a tint defines how much of the light is allowed through. So, a 20% tint allows 20% of light to pass through.
The legal limit on each of the driver’s & the front passenger’s window is 70%. The windscreen is 75%. Which means the glass at the front have to let 70-75% of the light through any installed tint. Most of vehicles made today come with tinted glass that is already at (or nearly) the 70-75% limit. Even though to some it doesn’t seem to be tinted, it really is.
If you choose to have your front window glass tinted the potential penalty will be (click here for more details):
- A ‘prohibition notice’ banning your vehicle being used on the road unless you strip the tint from your vehicle.
- A penalty notice and a summons by the court system.
Also, another factor to think about is your car insurance. By illegally tinting your front windows, you can nullify your insurance.
It is also illegal to an illegally install tint to a cars front windows, with hefty penalties & fines. Vision Tints is a reliable, trustworthy & respected business that all customers rely on and because of this we do not want to disobey the law. So we will not tint any front windows past the legal limit.
We always use a tint meter to confirm your car’s windows are allowable when installing tint on front windows.
We will happily tint any rear windows as dark as you wish, as there is no legal limit on rear window tints.
What type of tint do you use?
Not all window tints was created equal! The window tints available are:
Dyed/Dipped Window
This tends to be the least expensive tint available to the market, it bubbles, fades, and normally goes a blue or purple colour after a while. It is quite poor, and we do not recommend it.
Metalized
This tint is also cheap. It is regularly affected by the rear window heater lines, making it bubble. It can also disturb radio signals. This is not a premium tint, and, will not last.
Carbon or Charcoal
Top industry-standard tint. It is what we usually use at Vision Tints, as it provides great colour, its long lasting, is not affected by heater lines & doesn’t affect the radio reception.
Ceramic
The best tint on the market, offered as our premium service. It has the best colour/longevity, is not affected by heater lines, won’t affect radio reception and provides the best UV/temperature protection.
Having said that, not all window tint manufacturers offer the same, after many years in the industry, we have selected what we think is best brand available, and even better, it is all manufactured in the UK, which means that when you hire our services you’re supporting two UK businesses.
