Window Tinting Can Protect You And Your Vehicle
Okay, so you have air conditioning in your vehicle. But even so, tinting can help your car's air con work more efficiently because the temperature inside will be notably reduced. Window tinting works by preventing a large amount of the sun's harmful UV rays from penetrating through your car's windows.
There are varying laws in all parts of the world regarding the tinting of windows. So before you get tinting on your vehicle's windows, check the laws in your area. Some countries have banned window tinting altogether. The Department of Transport in America permits a 20% tint on private vehicles, and a 30% tint on commercial vehicles.
People choose to have the windows tinted on their cars for a number of reasons. Many people, especially young drivers, just like the look of tinted windows for the 'cool' image they think it portrays. Tinted windows also give the driver better visibility.
Many people have their car windows tinted to deter potential criminals. Would-be robbers or hi-jackers will not going to be too brave if they can't see the number of people traveling in the vehicle. But the most practical reason for tinting is to keep vehicles cooler.
Another advantage of tinting is that the substance applied actually holds the glass together. So in the event of a collision, or damage caused while driving in a nasty storm, the window glass will not shatter. This is another deterrent to criminals because they cannot break a clean hole in the glass.
During the tinting process, a thin film of translucent, waterproof plastic is applied to each window. Many home-owners are tinting certain windows in their homes. Tinted windows offer good insulation and will keep your home much cooler.
Tinted windows have the ability to deflect the sun's rays. This means that in the hot summer months less heat will enter through the windows. Tinted windows can also absorb heat which will keep your home warmer during the winter months. Window tinting can protect furniture and other items such as computers, TVs and home theater systems. - 2368
