Crystalline Window Tint
Benefits and Features: Crystalline window tints are known for their ability to block ultraviolet rays and solar heat without a dark film. This type of tint is perfect for female drivers who want UV protection and heat reduction without significantly altering the appearance of their car windows. Crystalline films can reject up to 60% of solar energy and up to 97% of infrared rays while allowing up to 90% of visible light through, ensuring that visibility is not compromised.
Ceramic Window Tint
Advantages: Ceramic window tints are highly effective in climates like Dubai's. They are composed of ceramic particles known for their non-conductive properties. Ceramic tints can block up to 50% of solar heat and up to 99% of UV rays, making them excellent for protecting against sun damage and reducing interior temperatures. They do not interfere with electronic signals (like GPS, radios, or mobile phones), making them a technologically friendly option. Additionally, they offer great durability and do not fade over time like some other tints.
Dyed Window Tint
Characteristics: Dyed window tints are often chosen for their aesthetic appeal and are the most economical option. They are made by adding a layer of dye between the adhesive layer and a protective top coating. The dye absorbs solar heat, thereby reducing some heat accumulation inside the car. However, their heat reduction capabilities are less effective than those of ceramic or crystalline tints. In Dubai, where sunlight is more intense, dyed tints might not provide adequate heat and UV protection but can be suitable for individuals looking for increased privacy and a sleek look at a lower cost.
Hybrid Window Tint
Benefits: Hybrid tints combine dyed and metallic materials to offer advantages from both types. These tints provide better heat rejection and reduced glare compared to dyed films alone, while not being as reflective as metallic films. Hybrid tints are effective at blocking both UV rays and heat, making them a balanced choice for vehicle owners in Dubai who need moderate protection from the sun’s intensity without the high reflectivity of fully metallic tints. They also offer enhanced privacy and are less prone to fading than purely dyed tints.
