Looking to add some style and luxury to your car? Or maybe you live in an ultra-hot spot like Texas and you’re sick of your car feeling like more of an oven. Or maybe you drive long hours on the road and want to protect yourself from the harmful UV rays of the sun? Luckily, there’s a wallet-friendly fix: window tint!

In this article, we’re diving into all you need to know about tinting your car’s windows, and why XPEL Window Tint is the top pick to for your vehicle.

The Benefits Of Window Tint

Many drivers tint their windows primarily for style and to reduce heat, yet often they don’t realize the importance of protecting themselves from the sun’s harmful UV rays, especially those spending extensive hours driving.

The phenomenon shown in the photo above, known as “Truck Driver Face”, illustrates the impact of sun exposure, manifesting as sun damage predominantly on the left side of the face. This condition, more scientifically termed unilateral dermatoheliosis, occurs due to the driver’s side of the face being more vulnerable to the sun’s intense rays through the window during long driving hours.


“I’m not a trucker, I don’t spend that much time on the road,” you might be saying to yourself, but the average driver spends 97 hours a year stuck behind other cars, according to INRIX.com, the equivalent of two-and-a-half work weeks.


With even the cheapest XPEL tint providing SPF 500 protection, you can rest easy knowing your skin remains shielded from these detrimental effects while on the road.

UV Ray Protection

As highlighted earlier, considering the significant time the average person spends driving, the cumulative impact of prolonged exposure to UV rays can severely harm the skin. Parents of young children, daily commuters, rideshare drivers, and truckers, in particular, should think about opting for XPEL window tints. These tints are infused with SPF protection, capable of blocking up to 99% of the harmful UV rays that are a known cause of skin cancer, as well as contributors to premature aging and skin cell damage.

Heat Reduction

Window tint does more than just block UV rays; it also filters out solar heat radiation, helping to maintain a comfortable temperature inside your vehicle. This is a real game-changer, especially for those in Texas who are all too familiar with the feeling of sitting in an oven after sitting in a vehicle been baking in the Texas sun all day.
