Window tinting is one of the most cost-effective ways to improve the aesthetic appeal of a vehicle. But did you know that car tints can also improve car protection in many ways? For one, tinting can make it harder for people from the outside to see what's inside your car, keeping your belongings invisible to prying eyes. Aside from this, car tinting can also minimise the heat and glare coming from the sun to protect not only you and your passengers, but also your upholstery.

Car tints are very functional especially in a tropical country, and that's why they have become necessities in the Philippines. But just as vehicles are made by different manufacturers and vary in specifications, car tints in Cebu also vary. They are available in a wide range of shades, prices, and features. If you are looking to install only the best Cebu car tints then keep these tips in mind:

1. Educate yourself about rules on car tinting in the Philippines

Unlike most other countries, the Philippines allows car window tinting. The final rules are still being set by the Land Transportation ...
... Office. Nevertheless, it's wise to be informed about the government’s recommendations on how dark you can go. Before buying or installing car tinting, you should familiarize yourself with the tint shade and the percentage of visible light transmission (VLT) that the LTO recommends for your vehicle type.

2. Familiarise yourself with the various types of car tints available in the local market

Cebu car tints can be classified into different categories. The most affordable type in the market is called dyed car tints. They are probably the darkest window tints but can only block up to 50% of UV rays. If you are looking for tinting that can block up to 90% of UV rays, choose metallic films. They can be more expensive, but they are longer lasting and more durable than dyed car tints. The most advanced (and most expensive) films in the market are referred as a hybrid, ceramic, carbon, and crystalline.

3. Choose a trusted brand of car tints

Aside from the type, you also must consider the brand of window tints you are installing. Keep in mind that every manufacturer has its own way of making their car films. It is vital to find out the strengths and weaknesses of a brand and what technologies they use.
