Having had dyed, carbon, and ceramic tint on 5 different cars, I can confidently say there is a MASSIVE difference with ceramic. Dyed film looks hazy at night or in bad weather, and carbon might actually be even worse, but this does not happen with ceramic, your vision is always clear and sharp no matter what. It's like comparing Oakleys to dollar store sunglasses. The heat blocking is a huge factor, but you also don't get that green shade of color-stable film or purple that happens on cheap films which make the light coming in look weird, instead its blue so colors in the outside world actually look more natural too

I just watched all that water drip into the buttons on the door. Hope it doesn’t cause the electrical to malfunction. I’d cover that better if I were you.

What is the thing you do with the tape? Do you keep debris and dirt away from the glass and film after cleaning and then installing?

Thanks for protecting the customer electric components on the doors

Or if its a very cheap ceramic film, most tinters will be able to see the horrible low angle haze. Sick video bro 😎 keep up the good work 👌🏼

The only difference is the heat rejection. Dyed film has been blocking 99% UV rays for decades. If you want the look a reputable company selling carbon or dyed is fine. Make sure the film has a lifetime warranty, if not walk.

Idk but I saw a difference in shade with regular tint vs Ceramic tint. The ceramic looks darker and it was the same % definitely cooler inside the car .

You can leave the tint that long at the bottom?

Thank you for this information.

I don’t know what this guy is talking about. Ceramic film is probably the only cosmetic modification that makes a significant difference in heat rejection and visibility. Once you go ceramic you will not be able to comfortably drive with any other film.

does ceramic film provide shatter resistance? and would it not make sense to apply from outside? Also, how dangerous is to squeegie all that water inside a door panel with electrronics controls.

WHAT PERCENT WAS IT ALL AROUND

What difference should there be in temperature?

eziest way is...put on a polarized shade, if it got rainbow effect, its ceramic

Where i live we reach 47C on summer days. Tinted windows are illegal and I'm desperate looking for options. Anyone knows if ceramic tint has been approved?

That's some good Thank you

So a must have in florida

What’s the white thing that you scrub with ?

Here in the south, you can FEEL the difference between ceramic and non-ceramic tint when the sun is shining directly through the window tint.

my bestie has ceramic tint and u literally could not see in there from the outside if u tried. however the inside is clear af. also we live in a state where our windows can get pretty dark legaly soo

some of the ceramic film companies use the ceramic term almost as a gimmick because after you put the b2u meter on it doesnt perform much different than non ceramic

Is this safe? Can you break this window ICE?

Problem is that people don’t understand that there are cheap and high quality dyed films as well. I’ve done warranty work on Llumar dyed film from 20-30yr old tint jobs. Never faded, the adhesives failed. Legit dyed films still block 99% of UV.

I paid for ceramic tint , it has a cleaner shinier tint to it , but when it’s hot outside the car still gets hot so pay for it if you want

Yep, non tinters will argue because they paid for ceramic. I worked at a llumar shop for years. ATC and ATR (dyed/metallized) outlasted ceramic CTX/Pinnacle. Color on all was good the adhesives on some. Literally replaced 20yr old dyed film that wasn’t purple. Just peeling. Quality dye and carbon don’t fade. Walmart trash and bait/switch film does

ceramic lasts about 5 or more years, dyed or carbon will break down in a couple

Just imagine taking 2 seconds to put a towel over that door panel to keep all the water off it, your lazy AF

So what you're saying is that in NY I'll still get hit with a citation?

I paid extra ($180 for ceramic compared to $100 for regular tint) for my two front door windows but it’s still hot af when the sun shines through. Waste of money

Nano ceramic tint has a water mark that's not permanent

Man the guy who did my tint did a horrible job.. I have to back for the 3rd time!!!

Carbon vs ceramic? Preference For me I had both was suntek and couldn't tell the difference other than price

See this is why you can't listen to every and anyone on the Internet. I watched this video and ran with why he said...and I can no confirm with my own experience that there IS ABSOLUTELY a clear difference between ceramic and regular tints. With ceramic tints from the inside looking out the visibility is WAAAY better. Form the outside looking in there is a slight difference in shade. On my Durango....I originally had 20% regular tints in the front (driver and passenger window)and 5% on the back. I then changed the front to 5% regular tint bcuz I thought it looked super cool. After doing this I quickly realized that 5% in the front wasn't good. It was waay to dark, especially at night and at night while it rained. Visibility was terrible! On top of that there was too much reflection from the ambient light on the inside. Afterwards I swap the front (driver and passenger) tints for 20% ceramic and left the back at the regular 5% The 20% ceramic in my opinion was waaaay to light for me. It looked as if I had 35% reg tints on it, looking at it from the outside looking in. From the inside looking out it looks more like 45%(if that's a thing). Visibility was greatly improved. The tints were dark but not dark enough for me. I could still see straight thru from one side to the other. After some time I the AGAIN change the front tints (driver and passenger) to 5% ceramic. Now these look much better. I still have th back at 5% regular tints. There is a CLEAR difference between the two. Especially during the day. 5% ceramic from the inside looking out looks like about 20% reg tint....and from the outside looking in it looks like it could be 10% (if that's a thing) it's not as dark as 5% regular tint....but it's definitely dark. If u look, you can see inside...but with the 5% reg....you can't see sh*t unless you put your hand to the window. So in all...this person who created the video isn't 100% wrong about being able to tell the difference between ceramic and regular tints.

so what tint is dark on the outside but clear on the inside?

Dyed film? People still put dyed film on their cars? Faded purple tint is always nice. Lol! Dyed film doesn't reject heat width a damn. But ceramic film doesn't reject heat as well as a metallic film does. Ceramic actually retains a lot of heat compared to metallics. Ceramics allow for a sharper view than metallics. But they're also more expensive. I don't deal with auto tint, only flat glass and I wouldn't dream of selling anyone a dyed film. Do they not use metallics in cars for some reason?

Llumar sells ATR which is metallized. I installed auto and flat. Huper Optik Fusion was most of what I installed. With ATR I noticed the darker percents looked very reflective. My guess is if they put more metal in the film it’d mirror film. Which is fine for flat but not auto. I will say dual reflectives were my fav flat glass to install/sell.
