At Jet Black Tint, we take product quality seriously, because our end outcome depends on them. Picking the best vehicle window tint product may be difficult for some, but after years of research and product testing, we continue to choose Solar Gard® for our client’s windows. Join our tint experts as we review just a few of the most compelling reasons why we carry Solar Gard products.
Before we jump right into what makes them great, let’s briefly discuss who Solar Gard is! Solar Gard is a division of Saint-Gobain designs, which is the global leader in manufacturing, producing, and distributing building materials of all sorts. Solar Gard manufactures solar films in a wide variety of products and applications, including commercial and residential window tint and solar barriers, as well as window tint films for luxury sports cars. Unlike other tint film manufacturers, Solar Gard’s focus is on reducing the amount of solar energy that passes through its product. Technology and innovation continue to make them an industry leader in tint film, and here are some other reasons we stock our shelves with it.
Solar Gard’s quality assurance guarantees that every roll produced of each product is consistent in color and texture for a seamless look, no matter where it’s applied. This is particularly important because our customers don’t always have their whole car tinted at one time and if we need to repair or replace a window and/or its tint, we don’t have to worry whether or not it will match the rest of your vehicle — it’s a sure thing.
Solar Gard conducts vigorous performance testing to ensure its products perform as expected in various conditions, including California’s sun, humidity, and winter sea chill. The high-quality product allows our team to confidently grab a roll and get to work installing it on your car with ease.
If you’ve seen cracked, peeling, or bubbling window tint, you’ve been witness to a sub-par window film product made with a weak adhesive. Solar Gard’s exceptional adhesives ensure optimal performance with total window contact. We appreciate Solar Gard’s adhesive technology that allows our tint technicians to provide a clean seal between the film and your windows, every time. Made with application in mind, Solar Gard tint film is installer-friendly, requiring few special tools and skills. When you have your car’s windows tint installed at Jet Black Tint, you’ll drive away with a film that lasts as long as you own your car.
Tint film clarity is one of the top indicators of a good product versus cheap alternatives. Retaining clarity is good for aesthetics, but it is also important for driving safety. Inferior tint film can cloud or vary in opacity, distorting vision and increasing glare. Solar Gard delivers superior film clarity with consistent transparency. Consistent film clarity allows us to install your film with precision and leave a polished look that can’t be beaten.
Solar Gard offers exceptional window tint films that ensure color stability throughout the lifetime of the film. What this means for you is rich, charcoal color that doesn’t fade to purple or warp with an amber hue. Color instability is caused by poor quality dyes and inconsistent manufacturing, and the hints of yellow that can appear are caused by a poor-quality adhesive that distorts when exposed to heat. Solar Gard makes their films knowing that they will be subject to constant direct sunlight while in use. Their production methods prevent warping and promote color stability for smooth, rich tint for the lifetime of your film.
Solar Gard’s parent company, Saint-Gobain designs, manufactures, and distributes building materials with a focus on growth, energy-saving, and environmental protection. Located in 64 countries with over 190,000 employees, Saint-Gobain has been one of the world’s top companies for nearly 350 years. Solar Gard, a Saint-Gobain brand, has spent the last few decades building upon technological advances and innovations in solar control and safety film. Solar Gard delivers unparalleled results in protecting vehicles, homes and buildings, and most importantly, those inside. We trust them, because they’ve been trusted by generations before us.
Solar Gard is committed to protecting the environment and ensuring the health and safety of its employees and customers, which includes Jet Black Tint and our clients. Innovative production technology and resource acquisition reduce their carbon footprint. Production line standards prevent pollution and ensure the communities around them are protected. By partnering with companies that work toward environmental sustainability, Jet Black Tint helps California work toward a greener future.
Solar Gard has an industry-leading warranty, which allows us to pass the warranties and savings on to you. We are able to offer lifetime warranties because Solar Gard does as well, and they provide a product that allows us to stand behind their warranties to offer our own. Because Solar Gard produces high-quality products, we can be more confident in our application and extend craftsmanship warranties on top of product warranties.
As a top-rated tint shop in the Bay Area, we believe that the products we carry are an extension of the services we offer. At Jet Black Tint, we prefer the product quality and company values of Solar Gard. For window tint film that looks great and offers superior protection, choose what the pros do.
