5 Reasons to Invest in Car Window Tinting Before Summer

CGT Blogger • May 18, 2019

Summer is right around the corner which means sunshine and temperatures will be at their peak. Here's why you should invest in car window tinting for it.

Summer means getting tan, heading off for weekend beach trips, ice cream cones, and a boost of happiness for everyone (sunshine really does improve your mood!). With all of the benefits of that increased sun, there are some drawbacks.

Scalding hot car interiors, glare shining in your eyes, and UV rays name just a few. Thankfully, car window tinting can protect you from those things and more. Keep reading for 5 reasons why you should have your car windows tinted before the summer sun peaks this season.

1. Keep Your Car Cooler

Car interiors can get dangerously hot very quickly: on a 70-degree day, it only takes an hour for the inside of your car to reach 113 degrees. On hotter days, it can reach a whopping 172 degrees. This can kill pets and children if they're left inside the car.

Even if it doesn't reach that drastic result of a death, extremely hot cars are uncomfortable for everyone. Tinted windows and auto films can reduce the temperature inside your car by 60%. This helps to keep your car cool even on the hottest and sunniest summer days.

2. Protect Your Car's Interior

Rays from the sun beating down on your car can cause upholstery, leather, and other parts of your interior to fade and age quickly, eventually leading to damage. Tinted windows reduce the amount of sun that reaches your car interior, which can reduce the amount of sun damage/aging on the appearance.

This can increase the value of your car as it gets older, and it keeps your car looking great for longer.

3. Privacy

Summer means trips to the beach, family vacations, rides to your favorite lake spot, etc. That means wallets full of cash, expensive cameras to document the moment, computers for downtime in the hotel, etc.

All of this leads to a huge increase in auto thefts and thefts from vehicles in the summer months. Tinting your windows gives you a bit more privacy so thieves can't see inside your vehicle and scope it out for valuables.

4. Reduce Glare

More sun means more sunshine and glare as you're driving, which can be dangerous if you're not careful. If you forget your sunglasses, you could be driving almost blind at certain times and areas.

Window films and tints can reduce this glare to make driving in the summer safer for you and your passengers.

5. Skin Protection

Remember how we said that the sun can damage, fade, and age your car's interior? The same holds true for your skin.

We know to put on sunscreen when we're at the pool or going on a hike, but did you know that driving and sun exposure while driving is linked to over 50% of skin cancer? Regular car windows don't filter all of the damaging UV rays from reaching your skin.

Professional window films and tints can filter out almost all UV rays, which will protect your skin in the sun.
