Holy cow, it’s hot as hell outside.
Adding window tint to your car will make it so much cooler! Cooler on the inside and look cooler too from the outside!
We have two different types of window tint to keep your car cool.
Window Films
Carbon – great tint that will last as long as your car. Lifetime warranty. Provides 35% heat rejection
Ceramic -Ultimate tint that provides amazing heat rejection. Perfect for kids in rear seats. Provides 65%+ heat rejection
The only real difference is heat rejection. Both of our window films will last and come with a lifetime warranty. Do you want great heat rejection? Ceramic. Do you want good heat rejection and a lower price point? Carbon.
Let’s get to the questions you probably have.
How much does it cost?
We only use premium window tint that will last as long as your car.
No, we can’t tint your whole car for $99. I wish we could. We would have to use very cheap window tint that is not going to last. We don’t like that business model.
The price for tinting your car will vary depending on the make and model of your car and which windows you want done.
You can expect to spend an average of about $200-250 for a full car with our carbon window tint. Higher end cars such as BMW and Mercedes cost a little more. Larger SUV’s with more glass will also cost a little more. This is just an average range.
The ceramic window tint cost more than the carbon but provides almost twice the heat rejection.
How long does it take to tint a car?
Most cars take 3-4 hours to tint all the way around. Two front windows take about a hour.
Is there a warranty?
YES! All of our window tint comes with a limited lifetime warranty. This warranty covers fading, peeling and cracking of the window tint. The warranty does not cover physical damage to the tint. Ex. It gets hit with a seat belt, watch or ring.
What is legal window tint for Louisiana?
If your car is registered in Louisiana you are supposed to have 50% VLT window tint on the front doors, 35% VLT tint on the rear doors and 20% VLT tint on the rear windshield of a four door car. For SUV’s and trucks you only have to worry about the front windows being legal. Any shade is okay on all the rear windows. This will make your car legal. The actual state law says 40% VLT on the front windows. Check out this article on Louisiana’s Window Tint Law for more detailed information.
Why should I go to Southern Tint?
We Use Computer Cut Patterns
All of the window film patterns for your car will be precisely cut to fit your windows on our computer cut software program. By cutting your window patterns on the computer we do not have to put a razor blade on the outside of your windows to cut them which eliminates the risk of scratching your glass and/or cutting your factory rubber seal.
Our Clean Facility
It is very important to have and keep a clean environment when applying window film. This is why we have invested heavily in designing our installation bay for optimum cleanliness and brightness. A clean and brightly lit bay is a key ingredient in the “clean tint job” recipe.
