			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Ultraviolet rays (UVR) are dangerous. Not only can they cause skin cancer and visible signs of aging, they’re also very good at finding you. They can bounce off water, off sand, and they can penetrate glass. Which means that even if you’re inside your car or house, if you’re sitting next to a window with sunlight streaming in, you’re at risk for UV damage.</p>
<p>Fortunately, window film provides an effective “sunscreen” for you against the harmful effects of the sun. Window Film can block out up to 99.9 percent of UVR. This helps prevent not only sunburn, but also the brief daily UV exposures that cumulatively accelerate skin aging and multiply the risk of skin cancer. In addition, the film can be lifesavers for people with diseases involving dangerous photosensitivity, such as xeroderma pigmentosum and lupus.</p>
<p>So be sure to check out more details on our website about window film and the many ways it can help you!</p>

<p>While tinting your car windows offers you a level of protection against the elements, it also gives you a level of privacy protection that can’t be matched. Privacy has become a serious concern in recent years; how often have heard about your friends or neighbors having their privacy violated? How often have you heard in the news that intruders have broken into someone’s car to steal valuables?</p>
<p>There’s no perfect protection against intrusion, but you can always discourage break-ins. One way to do so is to tint your windows. Tinting your car windows will better conceal any valuables you might need to leave in the car. As the old proverb goes, out of sight, out of mind. When your windows are less transparent, people are less likely to see what you have, discouraging theft altogether. Your privacy is one of the most important treasures you have; don’t let it be taken from you. Get your windows tinted today.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Window tinting has had proven benefits when applied. It can block UV rays and offers its passengers some protection. However, when applying window tinting to your vehicle, it is important to consider the legal aspect of the tinting. The laws regarding window tints vary from state to state, and there are specific laws with regards to Washington.</p>
<p>The state of Washington requires that you must have right and left side-view mirrors if you use window tinting. In addition, your tint job must allow more than 24% of light in, and have no more than 35% of reflectance. Despite this, you can apply a greater degree of reflectance to the top 6” of your windshield for health and safety purposes. Know the parameters of your tint and your rights when applying tinting to avoid fees and penalties from your state. Always check the laws regarding tinting when visiting another state, as they will vary.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2>Taking care of your new tinted windows</h2>
<p>Your new window film will take two to three weeks to fully dry, sometimes a lot longer depending on film brand, type, and weather conditions. Until this time your tinted windows may appear hazy or lumpy, and it may seem to have water bubbles. This is normal. On your vehicle do not roll your tinted windows down for at least three days.</p>
<p>When cleaning a car&#8217;s tinted windows, make sure to use an ammonia-free cleaner, as ammonia will eat away the tint over time. Do not clean windows with abrasive pads or cleaners; use a soft cloth, a clean synthetic sponge or soft paper towels. </p>
<p>Caution should be used when releasing seat belts as small chips can be made in the window film due to the seat belt hitting the glass as it is released.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Security window films are designed for adverse conditions and can be applied for security applications, where a delay of forced entry is desired. The performance of these films is affected by adhesive bond strength, thickness of the polyester, quality of application, and window structure/frame. Home and commercial window protection is beneficial against hurricanes and environmental damage as well as thieves and vandals.</p>
<h2>Security window films provide:</h2>
<ul>
<li style=" padding-bottom:7px">Protection from spontaneous glass breakage</li>
<li style=" padding-bottom:7px">Protection of glazing during earthquakes</li>
<li style=" padding-bottom:7px">Personal safety -Security window film forms a super strong bond with the glass that holds the glass together even after a many forceful impacts.</li>
<li>Additional protection from hurricanes and wind borne debris &#8211; Safety films can be used as an additional protection against flying glass when glazing is broken by wind borne debris. By helping to prevent windows from shattering, or retaining shattered glazing in its frame, these films help maintain the “weather seal” of a building.</li>
