Automotive Window Tinting

Summer heat and low winter glare, handled.

Seattle has topped 100°F in recent summers, and the low winter sun lands right in your eyes on the morning commute. A quality film is the difference between a cabin you can sit in and one you have to air out first. We install color-stable carbon and nano-ceramic films, cut on a plotter to your vehicle's exact pattern so edges are clean and there are no blades near your glass.

Every install starts with shade guidance: we confirm what is right for your exact vehicle and glass at the shop before any film goes on, and give you honest advice on which film suits the way you drive.

01 //Why it works

What you actually get out of it

Up to 85% heat rejection

Ceramic IR film turns down the sun so the AC can keep up and seats stop burning.

99% UV blocked

Protects your skin on the drive and keeps dashes, seats and screens from fading.

Privacy + security

Harder to see valuables inside, and film helps hold shattered glass together.

Checked for your vehicle

We confirm the film and shade for your exact vehicle at the shop before any film goes on.

03 //Washington tint law

What’s legal here

We install shades that meet Washington's rules for your exact vehicle, and tell you honestly how a lighter or darker film will look.

Draft — pending legal review
  • Washington's rule is about the light that gets through the glass, and it counts the factory glass and the film together, so a film shade is never the same as the legal number.
  • The rule differs by window: the windshield, the front side windows and the windows behind the driver are not treated alike.
  • What is allowed behind the driver also depends on how the manufacturer classes the vehicle, which is on the label in the door jamb, not on the body style.
  • Mirror finishes and some film materials are not allowed.
  • A written verification from a physician can change what is allowed for you. It is handled in person, at the shop.

Draft — pending legal review: a plain-English outline, not legal advice. The shop confirms the right shade for your exact vehicle and glass before any film goes on.

04 //How it goes

The Window Tint process

  1. 01

    Pick your film + shade

    We show you samples on real glass and confirm the shade for your vehicle.

  2. 02

    Plotter-cut patterns

    Your film is computer-cut to the exact glass pattern — no blades on your windows.

  3. 03

    Clean-room install

    Door panels protected, glass triple-cleaned, film heat-shrunk and squeegeed edge to edge.

  4. 04

    Cure + aftercare

    Windows stay up 3–5 days. Haze or small water pockets clear within a couple of weeks, a little longer in cold, damp weather.

Northwest note

Built for Northwest summers and winter glare

Seattle hit 108°F in June 2021, and many cars and homes here were never set up for that kind of heat. Ceramic IR film is the biggest comfort upgrade for a daily driver, it cuts the glare of low winter sun, and 99% UV block keeps your dash and seats looking new at trade-in.

What people say

I had my Tacoma TRD Off-Road in for window tint, ceramic coating, and full front PPF, and the results are spectacular. The tint is even and dark with no bubbling, and the PPF fitment around the bumper, hood, and mirrors is precise with zero lifting edges or wrinkles. Hard to even tell it's there until the light hits it right. …

The customer service by the team Midnight Window Tinting is unmatched! They are not only friendly and helpful, but they went above and beyond to make sure I had the best tint shade for my car at an amazing price. Shoutout to Brett & Maria for all that you did! If you are thinking of getting your window's tinted, this is the place!

My experience with Midnight Tint was quick and efficient. This was my first experience tinting a car and Midnight made it very quick and easy for me. Their front desk person let me sit in a few cars with different tint levels, and that was very helpful for me. I don’t have a fancy car, but I felt like Midnight treated me well. I’ll definitely return if I ever need a touch up. :)

Had ceramic tint done on my Model Y Performance. Great communications, competitive pricing, friendly staff, and the quality of their work is second to none. I’ve used them in the past for ceramic coating and PPF and they always exceed my expectations!
