Trust Us for Quality Car Window Tinting
Before the start of the second world war, cars had either completely transparent glass or none at all. Car window tinting came about as a security measure for people of great importance who may have been assassination targets. Since then, the popularity of vehicle window tinting has soared to new heights largely thanks to its practicality and contribution to the appearance of the car. The first type of window tint used a dye that unfortunately wasn’t a match for the sun's UV rays. However, car window tint has become more sophisticated and an essential feature for a vehicle. If you’ve said to yourself that you need to tint my car windows, you must allow a professional such as Mastertint to complete the task.
Benefits of Car Window Tinting on the Gold Coast
Window tinting involves the application of a thin, semi-transparent sheet of film to the interior of the windows. Approximately 90 percent of cars available on the market have some form of window tinting, and for good reason. These are some of the benefits you enjoy when you’ve had car window tinting in Underwood.
Whether you drive during the day or at night, various elements exist that can cause distractions. The glare of the sun can affect your vision while driving, while the headlights from other vehicles at night can cause you to squint. The presence of window tint reduces the effect of the glare of bright light, allowing you to focus on the road without distraction. Statistics prove that the addition of window tinting has helped reduce the number of light vehicle-related accidents on Australian roads.
Some people spend a significant amount of time in their cars. For this reason, it should be a comfortable space that you can sit in for long hours at a time. Window tint helps to keep the interior of your car cool as it reflects the sun’s UV rays. Bear in mind that heatwaves in Australia are getting worse every year. Instead of placing your car’s air conditioner under severe pressure, window tint limits the amount of heat that enters your cabin, consequently increasing the longevity of the cooler.
On that note of the effects of the sun’s UV rays, exposing the interior elements of your car to the sun for extended periods can lead to severe fading. Since the radiation breaks down the pigment molecules, you’ll discover that your interior will lose colour. However, car window tinting in Parkwood acts as a barrier between the car's interior and the sun.
If you have the habit of leaving important items in your back seat and walking away from your car, you run the risk of criminals taking a peek and even smashing the glass to get their hands on your valuables. A dark window tint ensures that nobody can look into the vehicle, which enhances your security and privacy.
How to Maximise Car Window Tinting in Southport
You’re now aware of the incredible benefits that lie in wait for you when you tint your car windows. However, it’s up to you to maintain its condition to ensure that it delivers a decent return for your investment. Following these steps can help increase the lifespan of your window tint and have them in place for years to come.
After we’ve installed your window tint, you need to give it enough time to dry. While you can use the car, you shouldn’t roll down the windows for between three to five days, depending on the weather. The longer you leave it to dry, the stronger the bond between the film and the glass. This step is crucial because if the bond isn’t strong enough, it will lead to bubbling and peeling eventually.
When washing your car, you need to use a mild detergent to clean the windows with tint. Cleaning liquids that contain ammonia and other harsh chemicals will damage the film and wear it out faster than usual. Always use a microfibre cloth and a mixture of soap and water or vinegar and water to clean the tint. Failing to adhere to these cleaning measures will negatively influence the effectiveness of the tint.
Even though window tint is resistant to the sun, exposing it for the entire day, every day, will affect the integrity of the film. You won’t notice immediate damage in this regard, but over time the sun’s rays will break down the tint. Where possible, try to park in a shaded area, especially if it’s for long hours.
