Benefits of Tinting in Cerritos

0 1

UV Protection

Protect your skin and vehicle interiors from harsh Cerritos sun exposure. Our premium window films block up to 99% of damaging UV rays, keeping your dashboard, leather seats, and trim from fading or cracking over time. Think of it as a permanent sunscreen for your car and yourself.

0 2

Extreme Heat Reduction

Cerritos summers can get scorching. Our advanced Nano-Ceramic tints reject up to 98% of infrared heat, keeping your cabin cooler, reducing AC strain, and making your daily commute far more comfortable—even in EVs or Teslas where battery efficiency matters.

0 3

Glare Control:

Sun glare can be dangerous, especially when driving westbound on the 91 or 605 Freeways during sunset. Our specialized films reduce eye-straining glare, improving your visibility and safety while on the road.

0 4

Enhanced Privacy

Keep prying eyes away whether parked at Cerritos Towne Center or local parks. Darker tints create a discreet barrier, helping protect your belongings and providing peace of mind without compromising style.

How it works

The TWT Process

01

Decontamination

Before tinting, we perform a multi-stage cleaning process on your windows and surrounding surfaces. Removing every speck of dust, grease, and road grime ensures a smooth, lasting bond for your film.

02

Digital Plotter Cutting

No blades, no mistakes. Using state-of-the-art digital plotter technology, we pre-cut your window film to your vehicle’s exact dimensions. This guarantees a perfect fit without scratches or errors.

03

Clean-Room Application

Your tint is applied in our specialized indoor installation bay. By maintaining a dust-free, windless environment, we eliminate bubbles, lint, and other imperfections common in mobile or outdoor installations.

04

Quality Inspection

Every edge, corner, and curve is inspected under high-intensity lighting to ensure a flawless finish. Only when our technicians confirm perfection do we hand back your keys—guaranteeing a crystal-clear, bubble-free result.

Stay street-legal while driving through Los Angeles County.

Cerritos Tint Laws (California 2026 Guide)

0 1

Windshield

You cannot tint the main part of your windshield in California. The only exception is a non‑reflective sun strip at the top up to 4 inches or along the manufacturer’s AS‑1 line. This “visor band” lets you reduce sun glare while staying compliant.

0 2

Front Side Windows

California law requires that front driver and passenger windows allow at least 70% of  Visible Light Transmission (70% VLT) after tint is applied. This ensures clear visibility for safe driving. Tints darker than this on front windows are considered illegal and can result in citations.

0 3

Rear Side & Back Windows

There are no minimum darkness restrictions on rear side windows or the rear windshield. You can choose virtually any shade — from light to limo‑dark — for maximum privacy. If your rear window is tinted, though, your vehicle must have dual exterior side mirrors installed

0 4

Reflectivity & Color

Tint films must not be more reflective than standard window glass, and red, blue, or amber tint colors are prohibited under California vehicle code. Choosing non‑metallic films like carbon or nano‑ceramic helps you reduce heat without violating reflectivity or color rules.

Your investment is protected for the long haul.

Our Tinting Warranty

Lifetime Manufacturer Warranty

All of our premium films are backed by a lifetime manufacturer warranty. This covers common issues such as bubbling, peeling, cracking, or delamination. If your tint ever fails due to manufacturing defects, we’ll replace it—no questions asked.

Color-Stable Guarantee

Cheap tints often fade to purple or brown under California’s harsh sun. Our Carbon and Nano-Ceramic films use advanced pigments and nano-carbon technology that are engineered to resist fading, ensuring your windows stay rich and consistent in color.

TWT Craftsmanship Guarantee

Perfection is our standard. If your installation isn’t flawless—no bubbles, dirt contamination, or gaps in coverage—we will redo it. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we don’t compromise on quality.

Signal-Safe Assurance

Our modern, non-metallic films never interfere with GPS, cell signals, satellite radio, or EV sensors. You get all the heat protection and style benefits without sacrificing technology or functionality.

How to protect your investment during the curing process.

After-Care Guide

0 1

The 3-5 Day Rule (Curing Period)

Keep your windows rolled up for at least 3 to 5 days after installation. Rolling them down too soon can cause the film to peel or shift before the adhesive fully sets. Avoid washing your vehicle during this time to prevent moisture from compromising the edges.

0 2

Don’t Panic Over Bubbles

Small pockets of moisture or a slightly hazy appearance right after installation are normal. These naturally dissipate within 1–4 weeks, depending on Cerritos’ weather conditions. Patience is key!

0 3

Safe Cleaning Practices

After the curing period, only use ammonia-free glass cleaners like Invisible Glass. Ammonia can damage the scratch-resistant coating and cause discoloration over time.

0 4

Microfiber Only

Avoid paper towels, newspapers, or abrasive sponges. Always use a clean, soft microfiber towel to gently wipe down your windows and prevent fine scratches.

0 5

Seatbelt Awareness

Be cautious when unbuckling seatbelts. A snapping metal tongue can chip or damage your side window film if it strikes the glass directly.
