Reduce Glare, Improve Driving Safety with 3M™ Automotive Window Tint

Hands are on a steering wheel as someone drives down a highway toward glare.

There are a lot of ways that 3M™ Automotive Window Tint’s Crystalline Black Series adds comfort to a vehicle, including lowering temperatures, blocking UV rays, improving privacy and, with some tints, even increasing security. However, 3M’s auto tint can also improve your eye comfort and keep you safer on the road.

Here’s a look at why drivers across Northeast Florida are choosing 3M Crystalline Tint to reduce glare and improve their visibility behind the wheel.

Automotive Window Tint Helps You Drive Safer

Automotive window tint can provide a layer of eye protection that you’ll be thankful you have the next time you turn onto a the roadway and find yourself squinting while driving into the sunlight. 3M™ Automotive Window Film Crystalline Black Series is scientifically engineered to reduce the glare that causes eye strain and visual discomfort while driving.

The car tint is constructed using 200 layers of nanotechnology in which each layer is specifically placed to deflect the sun’s harmful rays away from your vehicle’s glass. The result? 3M™ Automotive Window Tint can reduce glare up to 77% while rejecting up to 64% of solar energy. This means that you can focus on the roads without worrying about the rays from the Florida sun. No matter what time of day, 3M’s scientifically proven car window tinting helps you see more clearly and comfortably.

When 3M automotive window tint is installed on your vehicle, it means fewer headaches, less squinting and a safer, more comfortable ride.

Glare Protection Similar to Sunglasses with Automotive Window Tint

If you’ve ever experienced the relief of polarized sunglasses during a bright Florida summer, you already understand the importance of reducing glare for better vision using automotive window tint. Polarized sunglasses block horizontal light waves to reduce glare. 3M™ Automotive Window Tint provides a similar benefit, except it’s built right into the film on your car window.

Just like sunglasses, automotive window tint film filters harsh, reflective light waves that bounce off the road, other vehicles or nearby buildings, which can otherwise lead to squinting, eye strain, and fatigue. By safely reducing glare, 3M’s auto tint makes your driving experience more comfortable. It’s like giving your car a pair of sunglasses.

In fact, not only can 3M™ Window Tint help protect your vision from sunlight, window tint also can reduce the glare and uncomfortable feeling when facing headlights from on-coming traffic.

According to a 2008 survey conducted by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration assessing roadway and atmospheric condition causes of vehicle crashes, impaired driver vision due to glare (16.4%) is the second most prominent factor causing collisions, after physical road conditions like slick roads (46.6%). 3M auto window tinting is designed to keep you safer on the roads.

Automotive Window Tint Blocks Harmful UV Rays

3M™ Automotive Window Tint doesn’t just combat glare, it also blocks 99% of UV rays, the leading cause of skin cancer.

Each film option rejects 99% of UV light, protecting your skin, upholstery and eyes. This protection is like wearing 1000 SPF. According to the Skin Cancer Foundation, “…while window glass blocks most UVB rays, the ones that can burn you, UVA rays, which can lead to tanning, premature aging and sunburn still get through. (Both UVB and UVA rays cause skin damage that can lead to skin cancer.) Window film, a laminate capable of blocking up to 99 percent of UV radiation, is an effective solution that’s often underused.”

Adding 3M automotive window tint offers protection for not just your eye health, but for your health overall.

Subtle Appearance of Automotive Window Tint

Worried about going too dark and changing the look of your car with automotive window tint? While it is true that the darker tint levels provide more glare reduction, 3M’s state-of-the-art Crystalline Black films also comes with a nearly clear option that can reduce glare by up to 20 percent.

Crystalline Black films offer a broad range of 14 to 72% visible light transmission to keep your view clear, too.

In other words, you don’t have to sacrifice visibility from too dark of tint, like limo tint. According to laws in Florida about automotive window tint, window film on a windshield must allow for 25% of VLT or Visible Light Transmission. With a range of options between lighter and darker films, you can ensure UV protection and glare reduction at safe, legal levels.
