Window tinting is more than just a style upgrade. It helps reduce glare, lowers interior temperatures, protects against harmful UV rays, and adds an extra layer of privacy.
Ceramic window tint is the most advanced option available at Houston Car Stereo. Unlike standard dyed or metalized films, ceramic tint uses nano-ceramic technology to block up to 98% of infrared heat and nearly 100% of UV rays. It also maintains full clarity for your GPS, radio, and mobile signals.
For drivers in Houston, Texas and across the state, ceramic tint is not just an upgrade, it is essential protection from the intense Texas heat and sun.
Living in Houston means three things: scorching heat, relentless sun, and traffic-heavy highways. Whether you drive a Tesla, a lifted truck, or a luxury SUV, auto window tinting in Houston is no longer just an upgrade, it is a necessity.
We start by understanding your goals such as more privacy, less heat, or just a cleaner look. We will also walk you through Texas tint laws to ensure you are road-legal.
Every window is thoroughly cleaned with a tint-safe solution. In humid Houston weather, proper surface prep is essential to avoid bubbles, dust, and imperfections.
We use advanced plotter machines to cut the film to exact factory specifications. Whether you drive a truck in Katy or a luxury SUV in downtown Houston, the fit is sharp and seamless.
Our trained installers apply the film using squeegees and heat guns for a smooth, bubble-free finish that can withstand Texas heat and sun.
Curing takes 7 to 10 days in Houstonβs humid climate. Before you leave, we inspect every detail and provide care instructions to keep your tint in top shape.
