5 Signs It's Time to Replace Your Car's Window Tint

Driving around sunny San Diego with tinted windows offers a world of difference: reduced glare, a cooler cabin, and enhanced privacy. But like any good thing, even the best window tint eventually fades, peels, or simply wears out.

Spotting the Signs: Is Your Tint Saying Goodbye?

  • The Purple Haze: Watch out for that telltale purple hue! Older or lower-quality tints often discolor as the dye breaks down from relentless San Diego sun.
    • SD Auto Style Tip: Our premium ceramic tints are designed to resist fading, keeping your ride looking sharp for years.
  • Bubbling Trouble: Bubbling, peeling, or separation at the edges? This usually means the adhesive is failing, moisture is trapped, or the installation wasn’t perfect.
  • Scratched and Sad: Scratches and tears can compromise the tint’s effectiveness, impact visibility, and diminish your car’s overall appearance.  
  • The “Silvering” Effect: Notice a dotted or streaked pattern? This “silvering” is a sign of adhesive breakdown, air pockets, or a tint past its prime.
  • Feeling the Heat? If your AC is working overtime and your car feels like an oven, your tint might be losing its heat-rejecting power.

More Than Just Style: Protect Yourself from Harmful UV Rays

Beyond comfort and aesthetics, high-quality window tint plays a crucial role in protecting you and your passengers from the harmful effects of the sun’s ultraviolet (UV) rays. UV radiation is a significant contributor to skin cancer, and window tint provides a significant barrier against these harmful rays.
