FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
Tint, PPF, wraps, and booking, grouped by topic.
Tint
Window Tinting
What window tint levels are legal in Ontario?
Ontario requires the front windshield to let through at least 70% VLT (visible light transmission), and the front side windows can't be so dark the driver can't be clearly seen. Rear side windows and the back windshield have no legal shade limit. We'll recommend a shade that stays compliant up front and goes as dark as you want in the back.
How long does a tint install take?
Most vehicles take 2–4 hours depending on window count and film type. We're set up for same-day service. Drop off in the morning, drive away in the afternoon, or stay in the waiting area if you'd rather wait it out.
What's the difference between carbon and ceramic film?
Carbon film blocks light and UV and won't fade, but it lets more heat through than ceramic. Ceramic film uses nano-ceramic particles to reject significantly more heat and infrared without getting any darker, and it doesn't interfere with cell, GPS, or keyless-entry signals. Ceramic costs more up front, but it's the better choice if you want the cabin to actually feel cooler in summer.
Do you offer a warranty on window tint?
Yes. Every install comes with a lifetime warranty on SunTek film, backed by the manufacturer. It covers peeling, bubbling, cracking, and fading for as long as you own the vehicle.
How much does window tint cost?
Pricing starts at $119 for two front windows, $249 for a 4-door full tint, $269 for SUVs and wagons, and $349 for pickups, vans, and Teslas. Common add-ons: front windshield $149, rear windshield $75, sun-strip / visor $60, sunroof $40 per panel, tint removal $100. Call or request a quote for an exact price on your vehicle.
PPF
Paint Protection Film
What is paint protection film?
PPF is a clear, flexible urethane film applied over painted surfaces. It absorbs rock chips, scratches, bug etch, and minor impacts before they reach the paint, and the top coat self-heals light swirl marks with heat. Installed well, it's nearly invisible.
How much does PPF cost?
Pricing is by coverage and vehicle class. Sedan/coupe runs $499–$3,999 across the four packages, SUVs $599–$4,099, and trucks $699–$4,199. Call for an exact quote on your vehicle.
How long does PPF last?
SunTek PPF is backed by a 10-year manufacturer warranty covering yellowing, cracking, peeling, and delamination. Most installs look great well past the warranty period with normal washing.
Wraps
Vehicle Wraps
Do you do full colour-change wraps?
Yes. Full vehicle wraps start at $2,999, and final pricing depends on vehicle size, finish, and whether door jambs, trim, or interior panels are included. Call or send photos for a real quote.
Do you do chrome delete or roof wraps?
Yes. Chrome delete (matte, satin, or gloss vinyl over window trim, grille, emblems, and mirrors) is quote-based and depends on how many areas you want wrapped. Roof wraps start at $249 and range up to about $349 depending on vehicle. Gloss black and carbon-fiber are the most-picked finishes.
Do you do commercial or fleet wraps?
Yes. Commercial wraps, vehicle graphics, and fleet branding are all quote-based. Send vehicle details and your logo or design files and we'll work up pricing.
