2026 BMW X7 · front two to match the factory rear

Automotive window tint

Every window, cut to your exact glass.

Sides and rear in about two hours. The front two in about thirty minutes while you wait. Film that blocks up to 98% of the infrared heat, in every shade from legal to limo, installed in a closed bay so nothing gets under it. 2011 and newer.

  • Front two to match the factory rear on trucks and SUVs, the most common job we do
  • Sunstrip and windshield film as add-ons on the same quote
  • Exact price by text for your year, make and model before you book
Audi hood half coated: dull and swirled on the left, deep gloss with sharp reflections on the right
Half and half · same hood, coated side on the right

Ceramic coating

Your paint, sealed for years, not months.

Wax lasts weeks. A real ceramic coating bonds to the clear coat and cures into a hard, glass-like layer that sheds water, dirt and UV for years. Paint decontaminated, machine prepped and coated by hand, in one day.

  • Three tiers, from a 3-year warranty to lifetime
  • Nothing to bring back. Care guide texted to you, upkeep you can do in the driveway
  • Priced by the car and its paint. New or used, swirls or clean
The same headlight before and after restoration: cloudy and yellowed on the left, clear on the right
Before and after · same headlight, same day

Headlight restoration

Cloudy, yellow headlights, clear again.

Oxidized lenses dim your lights and age the whole front of the car. We sand the haze out, polish the lens clear and seal it so it stays that way. Done while you wait, any year of car.

  • Brighter at night. The light finally gets through the lens
  • Sealed, not just polished, so the yellow does not creep back in a month
  • Send a photo and we price it from the condition

Commercial tinting

Storefronts, offices, the sun side of the building.

Solar film cuts the heat and glare before it enters the room, blocks over 99% of UV so merchandise and floors stop fading, and privacy or security film handles the glass that faces the street. We work around your hours.

  • Estimate from photos and measurements, nobody has to come out first
  • Installed to the window film industry standard, in writing before the job
  • Heat, glare, privacy, security, one install

Mid-install · the center window is done, the two beside it are next

Residential tinting

The room nobody sits in from two to six.

West-facing living rooms, sunrooms, bedrooms over the garage, big sliders. Film on the inside of the glass cuts the heat and glare, keeps the view, and does not change the look of the house from the street unless you want it to.

  • Nearly clear films that cut heat and UV with little change in light
  • Privacy and glare films for bathrooms, bedrooms and TV rooms
  • Tell us the address and roughly how many windows. We text you a link for sizes and photos, then the quote

The tint looks flawless, with clean edges, no bubbles, and a factory‑installed appearance. They clearly take pride in their work.

Chad · 2026 Silverado

Less than 10 minutes to get a quote. Even offered same day install on a Sunday. The attention to detail is second to none.

Aaron Arthur · 2026 Elantra N

Completed in less than 20 minutes on two front windows and the sun strip. I would highly recommend.

Questions

The short answers.

How long does it take?

Front two windows, about 30 minutes while you wait. Sides and rear, about two hours. Wait in the lounge or leave the key in the drop box.

What's legal in Virginia?

Front side windows 50%, rear sides and rear window 35% on cars. Trucks and SUVs can go any darkness behind the front doors. You pick the shade and we install the percentage you ask for. Samples on the glass in the shop.

What's the warranty?

It depends on the film you choose, and it is written on your quote before you book. Our warranted films cover bubbling, peeling, fading and color change.

Do I need a deposit?

Yes. Once you have your price, tap Reserve, pick a time and hold it with a small deposit that comes straight off your total. Need to move the date? Give us 48 hours.

Brand new car, or something exotic?

Bring it straight from the dealership. Everything is done indoors in a clean bay, and the film is cut to your exact glass. We tint 2011 and newer.

Are you open on weekends?

Every day, 8am to 7pm, by appointment only. Weekends are reserved for ceramic installs.
