How long does window tinting take?
Small cars 2–2.5 hours, sedans and SUVs 2–4 hours, larger vehicles 3+ hours. Includes cleaning the glass, cutting and applying the film, and finishing the edges.
What's the difference between carbon and ceramic tint?
Ceramic films use ceramic particles rather than dye or metal. They reject more heat, don't interfere with phone, GPS or radio signals, and hold their appearance longer.
Will window tint interfere with my phone or GPS?
Not with the films TN TINT uses. Ceramic films are metal-free and signal-friendly.

Can you remove old tint?
Yes. Removal is best done professionally — rear screens carry demister lines that can be damaged by DIY removal.
Do you tint homes and offices?
Yes. Residential and commercial window film reduces heat, glare and fading. Contact us for a measure and quote.
