Why Do You Need Window Tinting for Your Car?
Window tint is a thin polyester film applied to glass surfaces to enhance appearance, safety and upgrade solar control. Solar radiation such as visible light, infrared and ultraviolet can be very damaging to the skin, and statistically, Australians have one of the world’s highest rates of skin cancer. The sun can transmit over 90% of its solar energy through untreated glass, so protect your vehicle AND yourself with Johnson Window Films, which works like sunscreen to protect your skin by rejecting up to 99% of harmful UV radiation. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends window tinting as an effective UV protectant.
Window tint also offers to protect trim, upholstery, carpets and fittings from UVA and UVB radiation that contributes to fading and cracking over time. The cost of reupholstering leather can cost thousands of dollars as well as strip your vehicle’s originality and can negatively impact on your resale value. High-quality window tint will reduce the amount of heat that penetrates the cabin space, keeping you cooler, minimises your air conditioning needs and in turn helps reduce your fuel costs. From a safety aspect, accidents and forces of nature can shatter a pane of glass into small and dangerous shards. Tinting will assist in keeping that broken glass intact for easier cleanup, and specialised thicker film can be chosen for extra security against forced breakage. In Melbourne, we see increased numbers of car-related thefts, so having window tinting is a smart measure to make it more difficult for prying eyes to look through in the dark and an added challenge to breakthrough.
