Window Tinting Improves Driving Comfort and Vehicle Quality

Technical Tinting Benefits for Vehicles

Window tinting goes beyond aesthetics. This upgrade enhances your experience while behind the wheel and protects your passengers as well. One of the key benefits of our window tint packages at Xclusive Autoworks is infrared heat rejection. Infrared rays from the sun can cause your vehicle to overheat, especially during the hot summer months. This makes it extremely uncomfortable and leads to degradation of interior materials. Our high-quality tint film products block infrared heat, keeping your vehicle cooler and reducing the need for constant air conditioning. Additionally, window tinting provides UV resistance, which prevents fading, cracking, and deterioration of your vehicle's interior surfaces. Beyond protection, tinting also enhances privacy and adds a sophisticated, high-profile look to your vehicle.

Window Tinting Regulations and Laws in New York

In New York, window tinting regulations can seem strict. It is to the benefit of you, your passengers, and other drivers on the road. It is essential for vehicle owners to ensure compliance with state laws. The darkness of your window tint is measured by Visible Light Transmission (VLT) percentages, and this is the first law to follow with regard to window tinting. For passenger vehicles like sedans, the law requires that the front side and rear side windows all must allow at least 70% of light to pass through. For larger vehicles like SUVs and trucks, the regulations differ slightly, allowing greater flexibility for rear window tinting, though front side windows must still meet the 70% VLT standard.

In addition to the VLT requirements, New York also regulates the reflectiveness of window tint film packages. Reflective tint can be used to reduce glare and heat, but there are limits to how much reflectivity is permitted. For both small and large vehicles, the window tint must not be more reflective than a standard window in the state of New York. This ensures that drivers and passengers maintain proper visibility and that the vehicle meets proper safety standards. At Xclusive Autoworks, we provide window tint film packages that meet all of these legal guidelines.
