What actually goes on the car

Four films, four jobs. A ceramic coating keeps the car easy to clean. Paint protection film stops it chipping. The question we get most is ceramic or carbon window film — ceramic blocks the heat too.

The front of a dark car in a workshop, lit hard from one side. A hairline of light runs along the leading edge of the hood — the only visible sign that film has been laid over it. Road mist and grit sit on the lower bumper.

Paint Protection Film

Clear urethane over the panels that take rock chips. Bumper, hood leading edge, mirrors, door cups, or the whole front.

Film line: 3M Pro Series, gloss or matte

A large sheet of deep satin vinyl being worked down over a car's rear door and wing with a felt-edged squeegee, held in a gloved hand. The satin surface reads clearly as film rather than paint.

Vinyl Wraps

Colour change, hood wraps, stripes, chrome delete, blackouts. It protects the paint underneath while it is on.

Film line: 3M, Avery Dennison, Oracal

Water standing in tight, tall beads across the roof of a dark freshly coated car, and sheeting off the flank below it. A workshop strip light reflects along the panel as one sharp unbroken line.

Ceramic Coating

A hard, slick top layer. It does not stop chips or road debris. It makes the car easier to wash and holds gloss for years instead of months.

Product: Nasiol, five year

The view out through a tinted front side window on a hot afternoon. An Arkansas hardwood treeline and low hills are clearly visible through the glass, while the cabin side of it sits in shade.

Window Tint

Cuts heat and glare and stops the interior fading. The percentage is how much light gets through, not how good it is.

Film line: 3M Crystalline, Ceramic IR, Obsidian, Color Stable, FX-HP

Warranty: 3M warrants its window film for life and its paint protection film for ten years, registered to the vehicle at install. Vinyl and ceramic coating carry their own manufacturers' terms. Ask for the paperwork before you pay anyone, anywhere.

How Dark You Can Legally Go in Arkansas

The limit is not one number. It changes with what you drive, and the rear of a truck is allowed to go a lot darker than the rear of a sedan.

Minimum visible light transmission (VLT) permitted by Arkansas Code 27-37-306. Higher percentage means lighter film.
Glass	Sedan	Truck, SUV, van	What we usually fit
Windshield strip	5 in from the top	5 in from the top	Non-reflective, cut to the AS-1 line
Front side windows	25%	25%	35% if you drive at night, 25% if you want it dark
Rear side windows	25%	10%	Matched to the fronts, or dropped to 20% on a truck
Rear glass	10%	10%	20% keeps a truck legal at the back and still reads dark

Going darker than this is a Class B misdemeanour. It is a fine and an order to strip the film, which you pay for twice. Film darker than the table above is sold in Arkansas and fitted every day — but it is your licence plate on the car, so ask for the number before you agree to it, and know what you are choosing.

What happens to your car while we have it

Most of this is prep. The film is the fast part.

On arrival
Glass is stripped and decontaminatedOld film comes off, adhesive comes off, and every edge and seal gets cleaned. Skipping this is why cheap tint bubbles at the edges in two summers.
Pattern
Cut to your vehicle, not to a rough shapeEach pane is patterned and trimmed to the glass, so there is no light gap at the seal and nothing lifts at the defroster lines.
Install
Laid, squeegeed, heat shrunkCurved rear glass is shrunk to shape before it goes anywhere near the car. This is the step that separates a clean job from a creased one.
Cure
Windows stay up for a few daysSome haze and small water pockets are normal while it cures out. If anything is still there after cure, bring it back.
Out
Tint 2–3 hours · PPF 1–5 days · Ceramic 2 days · Full wrap 1–5 daysTint is usually the same day you bring it in. Wraps and full front PPF are booked in advance.

Book Your Install

It is exactly what we need to price the job properly, so you get one number back instead of four questions.

This is a request, not a booked slot. We confirm the day with you before anything is held.

Name

Phone We text back. Say so below if you would rather have a call.

Year, make, model Glass shape and panel size set the price more than anything else.

Body style Arkansas lets a truck go darker at the back than a sedan.

What you are after Not sure is a fine answer. We will talk it through.

How much of the car Two front windows and a full car are very different jobs.

Existing film on it? Removing old film is labour, and it is better to know now.

Anything else Or text them to (479) 519-9741 if that is easier.

Photos of the vehicle optional Up to four, JPG PNG or WebP. A photo of the glass or the panel prices the job better than anything else on this form.

Or just call or text (479) 519-9741. Either reaches the shop.
