Window Tinting questions, answered by experts

While you need heat to peel back window film, the tint will often leave behind adhesive residue. You can use chemicals such as isopropyl alcohol or acetone to remove the residue, though hardware stores sell specialized solutions for this purpose as well. You can also use soapy water in a pinch!

The life span of window tints depends on the type of window and tint, but a high-quality, professionally applied tint should last for at least 15 to 20 years. In fact, some companies offer lifetime warranties for their tints. But others might only offer a warranty for one year (or no warranty at all), so be sure to verify any warranties with your preferred window tinting service and take good care of your windows after the tint is applied.

One drawback is that window film can reduce the amount of natural light entering a room, particularly if you opt for a darker or more opaque film. Additionally, if not installed properly, window film may develop air bubbles or wrinkles, affecting its appearance. Over time, certain types of window film may also experience discoloration or peeling. Moreover, certain window films can interfere with wireless signals, such as Wi-Fi or cellular reception. Careful consideration of these potential drawbacks is essential when deciding whether window film is the right choice for your home.

Tinting your windows can provide many benefits, like added security, privacy, safety, and protection from UV rays. However, not all window tinting serves all of those purposes, so before you commit to a type, make sure you understand the benefits it offers. 

For example, security windows don't typically offer much in the way of UV protection, but they're ideal for protecting your home from intruders. Meanwhile, ceramic window tints won't prevent glass from breaking like security windows, but they provide ample protection from UV rays in addition to heat absorption capabilities. 

On average, professionally applied residential window tinting can last anywhere from five to 25 years. The quality of the film material and installation help to determine if film will stay. In addition, gently cleaning windows with film can increase their longevity. Harsh and abrasive cleaners, alcohol-based and ammonia-based cleaners, and sharp scraping tools and scrubbers can all prematurely destroy the film's surface. Use a microfiber towel and gentle cleaning solutions to get rid of dirt and residue to prolong a tint's lifespan.
