Overview
Preventing a Hot Vehicle Interior
Tinting the windows of your vehicle is an all-around smart investment in your comfort and safety while driving. Our window tint film enhances your vehicle’s appearance and protects the interior from excessive heat and harmful UV rays. It also reduces glare and eye strain, day and night. The added privacy is a bonus, keeping prying eyes away from valuables inside the vehicle.
We install one film: HITEK Ceramic Black. Its nano-ceramic layer rejects solar heat without any metal, so your phone, GPS and toll tag keep working normally, and the color stays a stable, deep black.

Why it matters
Comfort and Protection You Notice Every Day
A good film does more than darken your windows. It makes every drive cooler, calmer and easier on your vehicle.

Nano-ceramic film blocks infrared heat, so your air conditioning does not have to work as hard to keep you comfortable.
Blocks 99% of UV
Less exposure for you and your passengers, and slower fading and cracking of the dashboard, seats and trim.
Less glare on the road
Drive with less squinting from low sun, oncoming headlights and reflections off wet pavement.
Privacy for your belongings
Keep bags, electronics and gear out of sight, and give your vehicle a sleek, finished look.
Signal-friendly
Non-metallic film means your phone, GPS and toll tags keep working as they should.
Quick turnaround
Most cars and SUVs are finished in a single visit.
Know the law
Window Tinting Rules in South Carolina
South Carolina’s window tint rules focus on Visible Light Transmission (VLT), which is how much light passes through the tinted glass into the vehicle.
For passenger cars such as sedans, the tint on every window must let more than 27% of light through. Larger vehicles like SUVs and vans follow the same rule on the front side windows, but you can go as dark as you want on the back side and rear windows.
Not sure what works for your vehicle? Our tinting team will walk you through the rules and make sure your tint looks sharp and stays compliant. Call or text us at (843) 580-2555.

From Shade Choice to Finished Glass
No prep needed on your end. Bring the vehicle in and we take care of the rest.
Choose your shade
We help you match a shade to your goals and confirm the limits that apply to your vehicle.
Prep and clean
Each window is cleaned thoroughly so the film bonds without bubbles or debris.
Precision install
Film is computer cut to your glass, heat-shrunk to fit and smoothed by hand to every edge.
Cure and inspect
We do a final check and give you care instructions. Keep the windows up for a few days while the film cures.

FAQ
Window Tinting: FAQs and Answers
Can I choose how dark my window tint will be?
Yes. HITEK Ceramic Black comes in shades from 5% to 70%, and we guide you to one that rejects enough heat and UV to keep your interior comfortable while staying within South Carolina’s rules.
Do I need to prep my vehicle before my appointment?
Not at all. There is nothing you need to do in advance. Bring your vehicle to us and our team handles all the preparation.
How should I care for my tinted windows?
Avoid rolling your windows down for the first few days so the tint can cure completely. After that, clean the glass with a soft cloth and an ammonia-free cleaner to prevent scratches and peeling. Light haze or small water pockets are normal while the film dries.
Which tint film do you use?
We install HITEK Ceramic Black on every vehicle. It is a professional-grade nano-ceramic film.
Will ceramic tint affect my phone or GPS?
No. Ceramic Black is a non-metal film, so your phone, GPS and toll tags keep working normally.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. HITEK Ceramic Black comes with a lifetime warranty that covers bubbling, peeling, cracking and color change. Ask us for the full terms.
How much does window tint cost?
With HITEK Ceramic Black, a window strip starts at $70, the front two windows at $160, a full windshield at $200, a full vehicle at $350 and a sunroof at $100. Your exact price depends on the vehicle.
