For me it is on the level of buying a sports car and putting all-season tires on it. If there is a product out there that works better and has more benefits why not use it on a Porsche. No reason to skimp on something like tinting when you already spent a good chunk of change on the car itself.

Many people (including myself) also really like the way ceramic tints look. They have a bit of a blue to them from the outside, often referred to as a ‘European’ look.

As an FYI, I believe ceramics tints (maybe even the idea of window tint) were designed originally for office buildings with lots of windows.
Heat rejection is very important to many today, especially for the luxury and exotics. However, with technology constantly advancing, window tint also caught up to this new era. No longer would you have to choose a dark tint to assist with reducing interior temperatures.

With Diamond Cut IR, the product rejects a healthy 94% of infrared rays and does not affect any wireless transmission signals such as keyless entry, AM / FM, radar, etc. The 94% infrared rejection is universal regardless of tint shade chosen. Shades available: 73%, 63%, 50%, 33%

Many have asked us how the product compares to ceramic tint. Here, we have a popular 50% ceramic tint to be compared to Diamond Cut IR 50%.

Have a timer along with a commercial heat lamp spaced just 1 ft from the test area. :






We started with a cool 67 degrees on the surface





Heat lamp measures in at over 400 degrees Fahrenheit

With a heat lamp running at 400+ degrees, here are the results:

Ceramic (tint to the right side) - 2 minutes 52 seconds, temperature rises from 67 degrees to 80 degrees

Diamond Cut (tint to the left side) - 3 minutes 1 second, temperature rises from 67 degrees to 71 degrees

***9 degree improvement
