Daily driving on University Pkwy and SR 70
Lakewood Ranch commutes run east-west on University Pkwy and SR 70, which means morning and evening sun straight through the side and rear glass. Ceramic tint takes the sting out of that sun and blocks UV that fades leather and dashboards.
Newer cars, cleaner looks
A lot of Lakewood Ranch vehicles are newer luxury SUVs and EVs with large glass roofs. We can tint side windows and, where it is legal and practical, add heat-rejecting film to the sunroof or panoramic roof. Tesla owners can read Tesla window tinting.
