Heat Rejection
Nano-ceramic particles block up to 96% of infrared heat. Your cabin stays dramatically cooler in summer, your AC works less, and leather doesn't burn your legs in July.
KAVACA ceramic window film keeps heat out, protects your interior from UV fade, and gives your vehicle a clean, finished look — with zero interference to GPS, phone, or radio signal.
Why Ceramic Tint
Nano-ceramic particles block up to 96% of infrared heat. Your cabin stays dramatically cooler in summer, your AC works less, and leather doesn't burn your legs in July.
UV rays fade dashboards, crack leather, and are the leading cause of skin damage on your left side while driving. Ceramic film blocks 99% of them — on every window.
Cut blinding glare on wet Northwest roads at night, keep valuables out of sight, and give your vehicle a cleaner, more finished appearance.
Film Options
Both films are available in a range of shades, from nearly clear to limo dark. We'll help you pick a shade that looks right and stays legal.

Good to Know
Washington State allows 24% VLT (visible light transmission) or lighter on all side and rear windows for passenger cars, and darker films on the rear of SUVs and trucks. Windshields may carry a non-reflective strip above the AS-1 line.
We install shades that keep you legal in Washington — and we'll walk you through the options if you split time across the river in Oregon, where the rules differ.
Ask About Legal ShadesEvery tint install is backed by a warranty against bubbling, peeling, and fading — done right the first time, in a clean indoor bay.
Common Questions
Give the film 2–4 days before rolling windows down, depending on weather. The moisture used in installation needs time to fully cure out. Slight haziness or small water pockets in the first days are normal and disappear as it cures.
Most customers land between 20% and 35% VLT on side windows. We have shade samples in the shop — the best way to choose is to see them on real glass. We'll also make sure your choice is legal for your vehicle type in Washington.
Yes — dramatically. Dyed film darkens glass but does little against heat, and it fades purple within a few years. Ceramic film physically blocks infrared heat, holds its color for the life of the vehicle, and carries a real warranty.
No. Unlike old metallic films, ceramic and carbon films contain no metal layer, so GPS, cell signal, radio, and toll transponders work exactly as before.
