Window Tinting in Edmonton

What is Window Tinting?

Window tinting is the installation of a thin, transparent or tinted film on your vehicle’s glass to help control heat, glare, and UV exposure while adding privacy and style. Modern nano-ceramic films like XPEL PRIME XR PLUS do much more than darken windows — they help reject heat, block harmful rays, and reduce glare while keeping visibility clear in all seasons.

At Edmonton Paint Protection Film, we install high-quality window tint for drivers across Edmonton and nearby communities. With shades ranging from 5% limo dark to 70% light, you can improve comfort, protect passengers, support your interior against fading, and get the look that fits how you use your vehicle in Edmonton’s mixed climate.

How Window Tinting Helps Edmonton Drivers

Heat build-up

Helps reduce solar heat so your cabin is more comfortable in summer and you rely less on constant AC.

UV exposure

Helps protect skin and supports the life of seats, dashboards, and trim by reducing fading and cracking.

Glare & safety

Cuts glare from low winter sun, bright days, and headlights, helping reduce eye strain and improve visibility.

Privacy & style

Makes it harder to see into your vehicle while giving your car, truck, or SUV a cleaner, more finished look.

Resale value

A cooler, protected interior typically wears better over time, which can help with resale or trade-in.

Window Tinting Process

We follow a detailed process to help ensure a precise tint job and long-lasting performance:

Initial Consultation

We talk about your goals for shade, comfort, and privacy, and discuss options that align with Alberta regulations.

Thorough Cleaning

Interior glass is carefully cleaned to remove dust, fingerprints, and residues that could affect adhesion.

Film Preparation

XPEL PRIME XR PLUS film is measured and cut to suit your specific vehicle.

Installation

Film is applied using professional tools to smooth it into place and fit the curves of each window.

Final Inspection

Edges, alignment, and clarity are checked; any remaining moisture pockets are identified and explained as part of normal curing.

Curing Time

Tint needs several days to fully dry. We provide care instructions, including when and how to clean the inside glass.

Frequently Asked Questions About Window Tinting

How long does ceramic window tint last?

With professional installation and normal use, XPEL PRIME XR PLUS is built to last for the life of the vehicle. The lifetime warranty helps cover common film issues when care guidelines are followed.

Will tinting interfere with my electronics?

No. Nano-ceramic films like PRIME XR PLUS are made to be signal-friendly and should not block GPS, Bluetooth, or mobile phone reception.

Yes. You can pick from several shade levels such as 5%, 20%, 35%, 55%, or 70%. We’ll help you choose options that align with your comfort needs and Alberta’s tint regulations.

Can window tint reduce heat inside the car?

Yes. Quality ceramic tint blocks a significant portion of solar energy, helping the cabin feel cooler and reducing reliance on air conditioning during hot days.
