@ The Car Wash is not just your number one car wash in Fredericksburg. We also offer car window tinting as part of our auto detailing services.
We have selected 3M Crystalline for our Fredericksburg clients, because it fits in with our commitment to serving you with the highest quality products on the market. There are many benefits to 3M Crystalline window film. It reduces glare, heat, and UV ray exposure, while providing privacy, security, and protection.
The Unique Properties of 3M Crystalline
Fredericksburg drivers will appreciate the unique properties that this car window tint features.
First of all, its metal-free design ensures that you will not experience any interference with your cell phone, GPS, or any satellite signals. Consider also that the 3M Crystalline window film is made from multi-layer nanotechnology. The use of this technology means that the film itself is as thin as a Post-It Note. Despite it’s minimal thickness, it is still able to block out heat to a high degree. In fact, it blocks heat better than darker tints!
While window films may conjure up images of limo-dark tinted windows, 3M Crystalline offers a high degree of visibility. With this window film, you can enjoy the benefits of a dark tint without losing visible light. This is especially useful in locations with window tint laws. If you’re unclear about the window tint laws, give us a call or drop in. We have all the information you need when it comes to deciding on the right tint for your needs and staying within the law.
Reducing Heat and UV Exposure for You and Your Car
Writer Anthony Gelenas tested window tints by placing his hand on various panes of glass that were heated with a 100-watt lightbulb. He determined that the 3M Crystalline car window tint made a big difference in how much heat he could feel.
“With the five per cent standard limo tint, the heat was significantly reduced,” said Gelenas. “But if you left your hand there, after a few seconds you could feel the heat starting to penetrate and build up. With the Crystalline 90, the lowest strength film available, my hand remained cool even after 30 seconds.”
The light tint of Crystalline rejects up to 60 per cent of solar energy, and up to 97 per cent of heat-producing infrared rays. The protection it offers is equal to about SPF 1700, which means significant sun safety for you, your passengers, your cargo and your vehicle’s interior.
When your vehicle’s interior is exposed to UV rays, fabric and plastic break down over time. You’ll find that latches warp, fabrics change color and fade, and things start to look old, quickly. This decreases the value of your vehicle.
The same holds true for your skin, and that of your passengers. UV rays can cause skin to age prematurely, leading to more wrinkles and sun spots. Exposure to the sun is also a big factor in the development of skin cancer.
Reducing heat can also have benefits for your fuel economy. With a cooler vehicle, thanks to a car window tint, you may not need to run your air conditioning as frequently, or as high, so your engine can get a bit of a break.
