Why Choose Professional Window Tinting Over DIY Kits

chandon • June 30, 2024

In today’s world, there are several ways that a DIY kit can meet your lifestyle needs. For car enthusiasts, Professional Window Tinting is not one of them. Although there are several brands that promise an easy self-install with quality film results, this is an automotive upgrade that should be left to knowledgeable professionals with experience in this craft. REP Autoworks in Centennial, Colorado provides Professional Window Tinting installation by a team of top-grade technicians who are committed to excellent service and superior protection. Let’s explore the benefits of Professional Window Tinting and why DIY kits do not meet the expectation.

Quality Window Tinting Provides Professional Level Benefits 

Professional Window Tinting is a service that provides a variety of benefits for vehicle owners. REP Autoworks is proud to bring quality film installation paired with the following vehicle solutions:

Glare Reduction- Keep a sharp eye on the road.

Blocks UV Rays, Added Heat Rejection- Keeps your interior cooler while adding fading resistance.

Energy Efficiency- By blocking heat from the sun, you save energy by running your AC less. 

Privacy & Security- Choose your shade to decide overall visibility, keeping unwanted eyes out. 

Sleek Look- Upgrade your exterior with a polished feel.

Options and Packages from Qualified Professionals 

At REP Autoworks, our team of professional installers understand that the benefits of your window tinting go far beyond your exterior look. REP offers multiple VLT (visual light transmission percentage) options and packages to fit your exact needs. You won’t find this type of premier selection from a DIY kit online. Choosing an automotive facility to install your window tints is a smart choice not only for the professional installation, but also for the professional knowledge regarding your investment. Our team at REP will make sure your tint remains legal based on the regulations in your area. We will also assure that the look you want matches your vehicle fully, and our team is happy to provide recommendations and adjustments during your visit. When you trust automotive experts such as REP, you will reap the benefits of quality installation and high-grade package options. If you tried to DIY a window tint on your own you would be limited to the company’s specifications and you would not be able to select your own tint range. 

DIY Kits Are Difficult to Install, Not Customized and Low Quality

The greatest downfall of a DIY Window Tinting kit is the difficulty of installing. DIY kits are supposed to be easy, but if you have difficulty positioning the film, you are stuck with the results without professional support. When seeking a DIY kit you may find options that are cut for specific makes and models. This differs greatly from the professional level of window tint services from the REP Team. Our seasoned installers make sure the film is cut precisely to your vehicle before applying the film to the glass. This is not comparable to a film that is pre-cut in a box. Professional installers use top-grade film that is well known in the industry and tailored to match your vehicle’s design. DIY kits may offer choices in film options, but it will never be as reputable as our trusted manufactures. 

DIY Does Not Provide the Autobahn Promise

At REP Autoworks we choose to work exclusively with Autobahn window tinting films. This film varies in four options including:

  • Ceramic i3 – Multi-layered, highest level of protection from UV, glare and heat rejection. 
  • Black Ceramic – Single layer film with all the benefits including a sleek appearance. 
  • Air Ceramic – A crystal clear film that offers all the perks without changing the exterior look of your car. 
  • Black – An affordable choice in window tint with all the benefits including privacy, UV rejection, and utmost comfortability. 

You will not have these variations from a DIY kit.
