Why choose ceramic window tint in Rockingham?

Ceramic film is the one to choose when keeping the car cool matters most, from July in Rockingham to a long drive on US-74.

The most heat kept out

Union Ceramic IR blocks 87% of the infrared heat coming through the glass.

Cool in a light shade

Heat and darkness are separate choices, so a 50% or 70% ceramic still keeps the cabin cooler.

Signals work as normal

There is no metal in it, so your phone, key card, GPS and radio work as they did before.

Blocks UV

It blocks 99.99% of UV, protecting your skin, the seats and the dash from fading.

How it works

What is ceramic window tint?

Ceramic window tint has tiny ceramic particles in the film that soak up infrared heat, the warmth you feel through the glass. Because it does not rely on being dark, a light ceramic shade can keep a car cooler than a dark ordinary film.

Who it is for

Long commutes, hot cars, black interiors, EVs and Teslas with big glass roofs, and anyone who wants a lighter shade without giving up heat control.

Shades

Union Ceramic IR comes in the same six shades as our other film, from 5% to 70%.

Aftercare

Keep the windows up for three to five days while the film dries. A little haze at first is normal.

How dark can ceramic tint be in North Carolina?

The same limits apply as for any film: 35% or lighter on a car’s side and back windows, and any shade behind the driver on SUVs, trucks and vans. Because ceramic keeps heat out in a light shade, you can stay legal and still keep cool.

Questions

Ceramic window tinting questions

If heat is the reason you want tint, yes. Union Ceramic IR blocks 87% of infrared heat compared with 75% for Carbon IR, and it does it in every shade.

No. There is no metal in Union Ceramic IR, so phones, key cards, GPS, toll tags and the radio work as normal.

Yes, at the same shades as any film: 35% or lighter on a car’s side and back windows, and any shade behind the driver on SUVs, trucks and vans.

The same as any tint, between one and five hours depending on the vehicle and whether old film has to come off.
