Window tint is a thin layer in shades of gray that is applied to windows to provide UV protection, privacy, and shade from sunlight. generating more popularity in recent years.
Among the methods of window tinting, the most common are factory submerged glass and film. The submerged glass in the factory is when it arises from a pre-dyeing factory, being a little more expensive and does not always work, so some car dealers do not always offer it.
