Good Quality Car Tinted Last For 10 Years?

Window tint films come in a wide range of styles, qualities, and price levels. Some are extremely durable, lasting more than a decade in harsh environments, while others may only last a year or two. The quality of the window tint determines how long it will last.

1. Quality of Car Tinted Film

Window tint films typically have a lifetime of five years and having competitively price throughout that time. Car tinted with higher quality, whether made of polyester, metal, or ceramic, carry a higher price tag but have a longer lifespan that even up to 10 years. On the other hand, low-quality window tints may need to be replaced somewhere from 1-2 years.

2. Installation Process

The window tinting film shall attach firmly to the window of your car. Incorrect installation can cause the film to develop air bubbles and wrinkles, both of which reduce the film’s ability to adhere. Because of this, the tint loses its colour more quickly, which shortens its lifespan.

Always choose a professional detailer to install the window tint film on your car. They will check that the film is correctly applied to the windows and that it adheres effectively to ensure it will remain in place for as long as possible.

3. Long Hours Expose Under Sun

The direct UV radiation from the sun and the fluctuating temperatures will have a negative impact on the quality of car window tint over time. Tints of a lower quality are more likely to deteriorate when exposed to the sun and excessive heat.
