In New York State, front side windows must allow at least 70% of light through (70% VLT). Rear side windows and the rear window on sedans also require 70% VLT minimum. SUVs and vans have more flexibility on rear windows. Double A Window Tint ensures every installation complies with current NY tint law.

Most vehicle window tinting jobs are completed same day in 1.5 to 3 hours depending on the number of windows and type of film. We recommend leaving windows rolled up for 3–5 days after installation while the film fully cures.

Ceramic window tint uses nano-ceramic particles to block heat and UV rays without interfering with radio, GPS, or cell phone signals. It delivers superior heat rejection, does not fade over time, and is the top choice for long-term performance. It costs more than standard films but provides the best results.
