Polarized car window tint uses similar technology with a special filtering film consisting of polarized tinted layers that block and reflect light in an efficient manner. Polarized technology is useful in situations where you may be subject to intense light or glare and must remain fully aware of your surroundings.
Polarized window tint offers the same general functions as other types of tinting, with specific benefits in the optics department:
- Reduce glare and help you see your surroundings more clearly
- Keep your car cool by blocking solar energy from entering the car
- Protect the driver, passengers, and car interior from harmful UV rays without reducing the VLT
- Make your car more secure
1. See clearly and drive safely by reducing glare
All drivers have experienced how sudden glare from blinding sunlight or headlights can be distracting or even dangerous when it interferes with your ability to see what is going on around you.
Bright sunlight can create glare, especially if you are driving near surfaces that reflect light such as water, glass, or flat highways. Polarized car window tint mitigates this problem by reducing glare and excess light so you can see better and focus on driving safely.
In addition to keeping you safe, polarized car window tint can make longer journeys more comfortable by toning down intense light sources. This means that you can enjoy looking out at your surroundings without getting blinded by the sun or dazzling glare.
2. Window film can make your car cool
Getting into a car that has been parked in the sun can feel like jumping into an oven. Polarized tint film helps to keep your car cool by blocking some of the sun’s rays and hence rejecting solar energy that would otherwise come in through the windows.
This protection is all the more important if you live in a warm place like Florida or Arizona. If you often use air conditioning while you drive, you’ll find that car window tint can even save you on gas by reducing the need to use that fuel-hungry air conditioner.
Because of this, installing tint film will not only enhance safety and comfort, but will also make your car less susceptible to heat and more sustainable and cheaper to run.
3. Block those harmful UV rays
It’s easy to forget how much UV light you can be exposed to when in a car. UV rays are a leading factor in causing skin cancer and a growing concern with the breakdown of our ozone layer. Dermatologists recommend avoiding overexposure to the sun, which might be an issue if you spend extended periods in sunlight whilst in your car.
A quality polarized window film offers protection for you and your passengers by cutting out some of these harmful UV rays. Not only that, tinting windows can also reduce damage to the interior of your car as extended exposure to UV light can cause interior fabrics and other materials to fade or weaken.
4. Light tint with heavy protection
If your objective is to protect yourself and your car interior from heat and UV rays without loosing in glass transparency, a light tint is just what you need. It will provide protection from infra-red and ultra-violet radiation, a perfect high-tech solution for your car!
Another level of protection to consider- in the event that a thief does try to break into your vehicle, installing a car window film can even slow them down by creating an additional barrier to get through.
