Automotive Window Tint
Ontario has regulations regarding vehicle window tint. The front windshield cannot have tint that obstructs the driver’s view, and front side windows must allow sufficient visibility. We’ll help you choose a tint that meets your needs while remaining compliant with applicable regulations.
Most standard passenger vehicles can be completed in approximately 2–4 hours, depending on the vehicle and the number of windows being tinted.
We recommend waiting at least 48 hours before rolling your windows down to allow the film to properly adhere to the glass.
Small water pockets or a slightly hazy appearance can be normal immediately after installation. As the film cures over several days, these should disappear.
Yes. Quality window films help reduce heat, block harmful UV rays, minimize glare, and improve driving comfort.
Most modern premium window films are designed to minimize interference with electronic devices. If signal compatibility is important to you, we’ll recommend the most suitable film.
Absolutely. We can professionally remove old, damaged, or bubbling window tint before installing new film.
Use a soft microfiber cloth and an ammonia-free glass cleaner to avoid damaging the film.
Safety & Security Window Film
Security window film is a durable protective film that helps hold shattered glass together during impacts, reducing the risk of injury and making forced entry more difficult.
While no window film makes glass unbreakable, security film helps strengthen glass and can significantly delay forced entry attempts.
Yes. Security film is an excellent solution for residential homes, retail storefronts, offices, schools, and other commercial properties.
Many security films are optically clear and virtually invisible after installation. Tinted options may also be available depending on your needs.
Security film helps reduce the risk of flying glass caused by accidental impacts or certain severe weather events by helping hold broken glass together.
Architectural Window Film
Architectural window film can help reduce heat, block UV rays, minimize glare, increase privacy, improve comfort, and enhance the appearance of your home or business.
Yes. Quality architectural films block a significant percentage of harmful UV rays, helping reduce fading of furniture, flooring, and interior finishes.
Yes. We offer privacy films that help limit visibility while still allowing natural light to enter your space.
Not necessarily. Many films are designed to reduce heat and glare while maintaining excellent natural light.
By reducing solar heat gain, architectural window film can help improve indoor comfort and may reduce the workload on your cooling system during warmer months.
