Window tinting in the summer is very popular. However, the cold temperatures and the snowy surroundings here in Oswego doesn’t mean you do not need that extra layer of privacy and protection that vehicle window tints give you. In fact, you might need to be tinting your car windows now more than ever. IMPROVE YOUR VISIBILTY VS. GLARE FROM THE SUN AND OTHER CARS’ LIGHTS It’s winter time. You may not feel the sun’s heat compared to the summer, but it is still there. In fact, the sun tends to be lower in the sky during the winter months, therefore, it’s glare can still affect your sight while you’re driving behind the wheel, especially when it’s near or equal your line of sight. “Glare is intensified by the snow collected on roadside because light reflects on white surfaces. This can seriously make driving during the winter more dangerous and tinting your car windows will help reduce the light reflection.” – Carlos Avila Just as you wear sunglasses in the winter, tint is like sunglasses for your car and allows you the driver and the passengers to be more alert on the road, and in turn, avoid accidents. Sun makes your vehicle age! UV rays also make the inside of your vehicle ‘age’ as well. The UV from the sun will make your upholstery, dashboard, and other wood components be prone to breakage as well. Save on fuel cost during the winter During the summer time, tints act as a guard to keep the heat off from penetrating inside the car. One of the main benefits is reducing the heat in the vehicle by blocking the sun’s rays. Did you know that tint retains the heat inside? Tints act like insulating layers by trapping interior heat inside the car during the winter. When the heat hits your window from the outside, the heat travels through the glass and transfers to the air and other objects that may be in contact with the window. This process is called Conduction. Accident Glass Safety Tinted Windows tend to break less. Instead of the window glass shattering everywhere, the tint films keep it together and intact. Broken glass can bring even more harm to the passengers, making it harder to go out the car. Tints also adds thickness to the glass making it stronger, reducing the chances of total wreckage if ever accidents happen. Secure your belongings inside With the holiday shopping, everyone is busy buying presents and leaving them in the cars. While majority of the people are enjoying the festive spirits, some still take advantage of the moment and try to ruin it. Tinted window is much harder to peek inside, break, and steal your belongings. Winter is a good time for deals Premier Tint Pros offers a great discount price for the winter months.

“Can you tint my windows even though it’s Winter?”
We get this question from our customers in the Oswego area a lot throughout the Winter months. It’s the beginning of winter right now and the temperature is dropping every day. Perhaps you just bought a new car or have Christmas money coming in and you can now afford window tinting and are thinking about getting some privacy or protection from the sun’s UV heat. Most window tinters cannot accommodate tinting windows in the Winter. Window tint film is extremely temperature sensitive, even a few degrees below room temperature makes installation more difficult and can result in a poor quality tint job. The truth is, you can definitely get your windows tinted in the Winter at Premier Auto Tint in Oswego Illinois. In fact, we tint more than 10 cars a day this time a year. The window tinting facilities at our shop in Oswego have been designed with Winter in mind. We have heated, sanitary window tint installation bays to facilitate tinting all year round. The only issue with tinting a car in the Winter is that the curing process is prolonged. After a car is tinted, there is still a residual amount of moisture in between the window pane and the window tint film. This is the reason you are advised not to roll down your windows for the first few days after getting them tinted. In the summer this wait time is 3-4 days, however, because it’s significantly colder and darker throughout the winter, the moisture needs more time to evaporate. Anywhere from 4-7 days is suitable to allow the moisture time to evaporate during colder months. If you have any questions or concerns about window tint for your car in Oswego throughout the winter, feel free to contact us in any way you prefer. For more information on window tinting, visit our website at WWW.PremierTintPros.com Also, View our blog post on why it is beneficial to tint your windows in the winter months. Window Tinting is much more than making your car look more luxurious! Window tinting blocks up to 99 percent of UV rays and cools the car down by 60 percent or more, which protects people from the sun and your car’s interior from fading or cracking.
“A lot of people have their cars tinted because they want to block the heat, and have privacy too,” says Carlos Avila, CEO of Premier Tint. The benefit to having a professional like Carlos and his staff at Premier Tint tint your vehicle is because they know the law when it comes to local Oswego, Aurora, and surrounding suburbs and state regulations regarding tint and how dark windows are allowed to be. Professionals like Premier Tint, also use higher quality film and guarantee the tint is applied evenly without any bubbles or debris. When you use a low quality tint you lose up to 50% of the UV protection in less than one year and you wasted your money. In addition, putting tint on a vehicle is a skilled labor that’s typically done with a heat gun that contours the film to the glass. There’s a chance someone with less experience can scratch the glass or damage the car’s paint. “The benefits of having a professional installation done primarily is the warranty and secondarily the quality of the installation,” Carlos says. “Most manufacturers offers a lifetime warranty against color change, bubbling and peeling with proof of purchase from an authorized installer. Here at Premier you do not only get the warranty from the manufacturer, but you also get Premier Tints lifetime guarantee as well.” Carlos Avila and his company have tinted many of the vehicles on the streets of Oswego, Aurora, Plainfield, Yorkville, Naperville and the surrounding suburbs. Local auto dealerships such as Chevy, Toyota, and Honda call on Carlos to come and tint their new cars for their customers because they know Premier Tint is the best choice for their client satisfaction. From high-end luxury vehicles, classic cars, and daily drivers, Premier Tint professionals know how to service your window tint and make you a happy with the outcome of your auto window tint. |
