Upgrade Your Look and Comfort
Window tinting does more than just make your car look sleek — it protects your interior, improves comfort, and adds privacy.
At Camshaft’s Audio, we’ve helped drivers across Spring, The Woodlands, and Conroe, TX choose the perfect tint for their vehicles. Whether you’re after heat rejection, UV protection, or simply style, our guide covers everything you need to know before booking your tint appointment.
- Why Tint Your Windows?
If you’ve never had window tint before, you might be surprised at how many benefits it offers beyond appearance.
Top Benefits Include:
- 🌞 Cooler Interior: Reduces heat buildup, especially during Texas summers.
- 🛡️ UV Protection: Blocks up to 99% of harmful UV rays that damage skin and interiors.
- 👀 Privacy & Security: Keeps valuables out of sight and deters break-ins.
- 💡 Reduced Glare: Improves visibility during bright daylight and night driving.
- 🏎️ Enhanced Style: Gives your ride a clean, professional finish.
With the right film, your car will not only look better but also stay cooler and last longer.
- Types of Window Tint
Not all tints are created equal. Understanding the different materials helps you choose one that fits your goals and budget.
Dyed Film
- Entry-level option
- Absorbs sunlight to reduce heat and glare
- Offers privacy but limited UV blocking
- Can fade or bubble over time if not installed properly
Carbon Film
- More durable than dyed tint
- Excellent heat reduction and fade resistance
- Matte finish adds a modern look
- Great balance between performance and price
Ceramic Film
- Premium-grade tint with advanced technology
- Superior UV and infrared heat rejection
- Doesn’t interfere with GPS, cell, or radio signals
- Lasts for years without fading or discoloring
At Camshaft’s Audio, we specialize in ceramic and carbon tint because they offer the best performance and long-term value — especially in the Texas heat.
- Understanding Tint Percentages
Tint is measured by VLT (Visible Light Transmission) — the percentage of light that passes through the film.
Example:
- 70% tint = very light shade
- 35% tint = balanced visibility and privacy
- 20% tint = darker, more private look
- 5% tint = “limo” style, maximum privacy
The lower the percentage, the darker the tint.
We’ll help you choose the perfect shade that balances your preferences with Texas tint laws (which we’ll cover below).
- Texas Window Tint Laws
Every state has its own regulations, and Texas is no exception. Staying compliant ensures you avoid fines while still getting the look and protection you want.
Texas Tint Guidelines (as of 2025):
- Front Side Windows: Must allow 25% of light or more through
- Windshield: Tint allowed above the AS-1 line or top 5 inches
- Rear Windows & Back Glass: Any darkness is permitted
- Reflectivity: Must not exceed 25%
We always install films that meet or exceed state standards, so you can enjoy your tint with confidence.
- The Installation Process
At Camshaft’s Audio, tint installation is both an art and a science.
Here’s what to expect during your appointment:
- Consultation: We’ll review your goals and show film samples.
- Prep: Thorough cleaning of glass surfaces for a perfect bond.
- Precision Cutting: Each piece is custom cut to your vehicle’s exact specs.
- Installation: Film is carefully applied, heat-shaped, and sealed.
- Curing: Allow 3–5 days before rolling down your windows.
We guarantee a flawless finish with no bubbles, creases, or peeling — and every installation is backed by a lifetime warranty on both film and labor.
- Caring for Your Window Tint
Proper care helps your tint last for years without fading or scratching.
Maintenance Tips:
- Wait at least 3–5 days before cleaning or rolling down windows.
- Use a soft microfiber towel and ammonia-free cleaner.
- Avoid scraping tools or sharp edges.
- Park in shaded areas when possible to extend lifespan.
Ceramic tint is designed to resist fading, so with minimal care, it’ll look as good years later as it does on day one.
