Frequently Asked Questions

How long does 3M window tint installation take?

Professional installation of 3M window tint typically takes 2-4 hours, depending on your vehicle type and the package selected. Our expert technicians take the necessary time to ensure precise fitting and proper adhesion. We recommend scheduling your installation in the morning to allow maximum curing time during daylight hours.

What's the difference between Crystalline and Ceramic IR?

3M Crystalline is our premium film, featuring over 200 nano-layers while remaining incredibly thin. It provides superior heat rejection (blocks 99% of infrared heat) and maximum clarity without a dark appearance. Ceramic IR, while still excellent, offers slightly less heat rejection but at a more accessible price point. Both films provide outstanding UV protection and are completely non-metallic, but Crystalline represents the pinnacle of 3M's window tinting technology.

How long will 3M window tint last?

When properly maintained, 3M window tints are designed to last 10-15 years or longer. Unlike lower-quality films, 3M tints resist bubbling, peeling, and color changes even in Charleston's intense sun and humid climate. The exact lifespan depends on exposure to elements and maintenance, but you can expect years of consistent performance.

Is there a warranty on 3M window tints?

Yes, all our 3M window tint installations come with 3M's comprehensive manufacturer warranty. This warranty covers film defects, color changes, bubbling, and peeling. As an authorized 3M installer, we also provide our own installation warranty for added peace of mind. We'll provide detailed warranty documentation upon completion of your installation.

Will 3M tint interfere with my phone signal?

No. All our 3M films, including Crystalline and Ceramic IR, are specifically engineered to be non-metallic, ensuring zero interference with cellular signals, GPS, satellite radio, or 5G devices. You'll maintain perfect connectivity while enjoying superior heat and UV protection.
