Sun exposure is typically associated with activities such as spending a day in the beach or playing outdoors. But did you know that sun exposure inside your car can also increase your risk for wrinkles, age spots, facial sagging, and even skin cancer?

Cancer research shows that UV radiation inside a car is affected by whether car windows are up or down, the orientation of the vehicle to the sun, and the type of films and tints used on car windows.

One thing is sure. For all types of vehicles, car tints are not a luxury. They are a must. Harmful UV rays can be reduced by up to 99% if your vehicle is installed with quality car tint.

What are the advantages of having your car tinted?

A good car tint will let you drive better because having the sun in your eyes can adversely affect your reflexes and driving concentration.

A good car tint provides you with better privacy, and to a large extent, safety. Car tints can keep people with malicious intent from seeing your valuables that are stored inside the car.

A good car tint also protects car upholstery and interiors from direct sunlight that can cause warping, fading or cracking.

A good car tint will protect your windows from shattering in the event of an accident. This could save your life and lessen your chances of injury.

A good car tint reduces heat and makes you sweat less, adding to your hygiene and sense of well-being.

Most important, a good car tint directly impacts your health. It protects your skin from harmful UV rays that can accelerate aging and give you life threatening skin cancer over a long period of exposure.
