The Benefits of Window Tinting
Aside from your property, your motor vehicle will be your largest investment, and having window tinting applied will not only increase its value, but it will also extend the lifespan of the vehicle’s interior whilst providing safety for you and your family. Apart from safety, the benefits of window tinting are numerous and between the choice of our SunTek Window Film or Diamond Fusion protective coating, you will get all the protection you need.
Road User Safety
As a driver, your visibility must not be hampered by the sun, rain, or the glare from other road users. Sunglasses and visors can assist in keeping the sun’s rays at bay. However, there are certain times of the day when you need to be shielded from the glare. Applying a protective coating on your windows will improve overall clarity, giving you enough reaction time if needed. On those days that you have to drive through heavy rain, you want a product that can increase your visibility without having to rely solely on your windscreen wipers.
A Preventative Measure
Being aware of your surroundings whilst driving is important, specifically when coming to a full stop. Unfortunately, no matter how alert we are, crimes of opportunity happen in seconds and having window tinting applied to your windows forms a degree of protection between you, the contents of your vehicle, and opportunists. Smash-and-grab safety film will afford you those few precious seconds to drive off without the criminal getting away with your belongings, or worse.
Blocking out Harmful UV Rays
Window tinting protects you and the interior of your vehicle from harmful UV rays. Having your windows tinted cools down the interior of your vehicle, making it more pleasant to drive on hot days without overworking your aircon. You will also be protecting the upholstery from premature fading and your dashboard from cracking, especially if your car is parked in the sun for lengthy periods at a time.
The Legalities
As much as one benefits from having window tinting done, there are limits to how much tint can be applied within the realms of the law. The National Road Traffic Regulations allow for no less than 35% light transmission on the side and back windows and 70% on the front windscreen.
