Best Choice
XPEL Prime XR Plus
XPEL Prime XR Plus takes comfort even further. It rejects even more infrared heat, so the real “feel” difference inside the car is noticeable the second you sit down. You get cooler glass, cooler seats, and a cooler drive.

Window Strip (sunstrip)
STARTING AT PRICES:
STANDARD STRIP - $75
A tinted top strip blocks harsh light from the sun, so your eyes are more relaxed and you can see the road clearly without squinting. It also gives your windshield a clean, custom look.
Front 2 Windows
STARTING AT PRICES:
Global QDP Ceramic $140
XPEL Prime XR Plus $200
Tinting the front 2 windows helps balance the shade across your vehicle so the cabin looks uniform and feels noticeably cooler. It also reduces glare and UV exposure, which keeps your interior materials from fading as fast.
All Sides and Rear Window
STARTING AT PRICES:
Global QDP Ceramic $340
XPEL Prime XR Plus $475
Tinting all side and rear windows gives your cabin full heat rejection, so the whole vehicle stays cooler and more comfortable. It also adds privacy on every angle while cutting UV that can damage interior surfaces over time.
Full Windshield
STARTING AT PRICES:
Global QDP Ceramic $200
XPEL Prime XR Plus $300
Tinting the full windshield dramatically cuts infrared heat, so the cabin stays cooler even before the AC kicks in. It also reduces harsh glare and eye strain, which makes long drives more comfortable and keeps your interior materials from aging as quickly.
Window Tint Removal
Old tint that's bubbling, peeling or turning purple won't get better, and it's harder to see through. We take the old film and its glue off the glass, so it's clean and ready for new tint.
Removal is priced by the window: $30 for each side window that rolls down, $20 for each small fixed side window, $150 for the rear window and $150 for a windshield. Old, baked-on film on a rear window or windshield can take more than an hour; each extra hour is $150.

Tint Care Tips
Maintenance Checklist for Tinted Windows
Give the film time to fully cure before rolling windows down
After tint is installed, the adhesive needs time to bond to the glass. If you roll the windows down too soon, you can lift the edges or create wrinkles that won’t go away. Wait 3 to 5 days before rolling them down, a little longer in cold weather, and let the film settle the right way. Patience here keeps the tint clean and flawless for the long haul.
Use tint-safe cleaners and soft microfiber towels
Harsh glass cleaners can damage the film coating or make it look cloudy. Water, a mild, tint-safe cleaner, and a clean microfiber towel are all you need. Avoid paper towels because they’re abrasive. Keep it simple and gentle, and the windows will stay sharp and streak-free.
Don’t scrape or pick at the edges
Even high-quality film has a vulnerable point at the edge line. Scrapers, razor blades, or aggressive window tools can lift or chip the film. If you need to clean the corners, go slow with a microfiber corner and gentle pressure. Treat the edges with care, and your tint will look factory smooth for years
Technology Explained
How Ceramic Tint Protects Your Interior
Ceramic particles block harmful rays at the source
Ceramic tint uses non-metallic nano-ceramic particles that filter UV radiation before it can even enter your cabin. Instead of just darkening the glass, these particles actually absorb and scatter the wavelengths that cause skin burn and material breakdown. That means your car feels cooler to the touch and your skin is protected every time sunlight hits the glass, even if you chose a lighter shade.
Interior materials stay brighter and last longer
UV exposure fades seats, dries out dashboards, and weakens stitching over time. Ceramic tint cuts that damage significantly because it slows down the breakdown process caused by sunlight. You retain the look, color, and condition of your interior longer, which saves you money on repairs and helps your vehicle keep its value. With ceramic film in place, you’re not just protecting today’s comfort. You’re protecting your car years down the road.
UV protection is always on and doesn’t rely on shade level
Even a light ceramic film cuts the sun’s heat you feel on your skin and blocks nearly all UV, while barely changing how your car looks. That’s the big difference from basic dyed tint, which has to be much darker to cut real heat, and fades over time. You can stay legal, keep visibility high, and still get serious protection from the sun’s worst rays. With ceramic tint, you choose the look you like and still get the performance you need.
Customer FAQs
Have Window Tinting Questions?
How much does window tint cost at Car Teks?
Ceramic tint on all the side windows and the rear window starts at $340 in Global QDP Ceramic and $475 in XPEL Prime XR Plus, for the smallest cars. The two front windows start at $140, and a full windshield starts at $200 in Global QDP Ceramic or $300 in XPEL. Your exact price depends on your vehicle's windows: see it on our booking page, or call (219) 864-8858.
Is there a warranty on window tint?
Yes. Every window tint job comes with a lifetime warranty on film and labor for as long as you own the car, in either film. A specific warranty claim needs the team to inspect the vehicle.
How long does window tinting take?
Most installs take about 2 to 3 hours depending on the vehicle and the number of windows. We take our time to prep the glass, clean every edge, and make sure the film lays perfectly before we finish. You won’t be stuck here all day, but we also won’t rush your car out just to save a few minutes. Quality takes a little time, and the end result is worth it.
What’s the difference between Global QDP Ceramic and XPEL Prime XR Plus?
Both are ceramic films that block heat, glare and 99% of UV, and both carry our lifetime warranty. XPEL Prime XR Plus blocks more of the sun's infrared heat (up to 96% by XPEL's figures, against up to 70% for Global QDP Ceramic by Global's), so you feel a bigger difference when you sit inside the car, and it's clearer to see through, especially at night. Global QDP Ceramic is our most affordable option. Customers who want the most comfort usually go with XPEL.
Will tint affect my visibility at night?
Quality ceramic film is designed to improve clarity, not hurt it. We help you pick the right shade so you get the privacy and heat rejection you want without going too dark. Any tint lets in a little less light, and lighter shades keep more of your night view, so we’ll match the shade to how and when you drive. Many customers say night driving feels better because headlight glare is cut down.
How long does the film last?
Ceramic film doesn't fade or turn purple, and both of our films carry our lifetime warranty on film and labor for as long as you own the car. Cheaper films will break down faster. That’s why we only use high-quality brands that look clean for the long run. It’s worth having a film that holds up and keeps your car looking sharp.
Can I roll my windows down right after the install?
Not right away. You need to wait about 3 to 5 days before rolling them down, so the film can fully bond to the glass. If you roll them down too soon, the edges can lift or wrinkle, which hurts the finish. Let it cure, and your tint will stay tight and clean.
