FAQ

Common Questions.

How dark can I legally tint in Victoria?

Victoria sets a minimum VLT (visible light transmission) for front side windows, with rear windows allowed darker. We fit compliant film and advise on the darkest legal option.

What tint is best for heat?

Ceramic film offers the best heat rejection and clarity without needing to go dark. Carbon film is a great durable mid-tier option.

Will tint fade or go purple?

Quality carbon and ceramic films won't — they hold their colour for years. Cheap dyed film is what fades and turns purple.

Does tint block UV?

Yes — quality film blocks the large majority of UV, protecting your interior from fading and you from sun exposure.

How much does tinting cost?

It depends on the car and the film tier. Ceramic costs more than carbon but rejects more heat. We'll quote your specific vehicle.

How long does tinting take?

A typical car is done in a few hours. We fit in a clean, controlled environment for a flawless, bubble-free finish.
