Frequently Asked Questions

Automotive Window Tinting

  • What are the benefits of automotive window tinting?

    Automotive window tinting offers several advantages, including reduced interior heat, enhanced privacy, protection from harmful UV rays, decreased glare, and prevention of upholstery fading. Additionally, it can improve the overall aesthetic of your vehicle.

  • Is window tinting legal in Columbus, Ohio?

    Yes, window tinting is legal in Ohio; however, there are specific regulations regarding the allowable Visible Light Transmission (VLT) percentages. For sedans, front side windows must allow more than 50% of light in, while back side windows and rear windows must allow more than 35% of light in.

  • How long does the window tinting installation take?

    The duration of the installation depends on the type of vehicle and the number of windows being tinted. Typically, a full vehicle tinting can take between 2 to 4 hours. If old tint needs to be removed, it may add additional time.

  • Will window tinting affect my vehicle's electronics or GPS?

    High-quality ceramic films, such as those offered by Midwest Autolab, are designed to be non-metallic and do not interfere with electronic signals, including GPS, radio, or mobile devices.

  • What is the warranty on your window tinting services?

    Midwest Autolab provides a lifetime transferable warranty on all window tint installations. This warranty covers defects like discoloration, peeling, adhesive failure, cracking, delaminating, oxidation, and corrosion for the original vehicle owner.

  • Can I tint my vehicle's windows if they already have factory tint?

    Yes, aftermarket tint can be applied over factory-tinted windows to achieve the desired darkness or to enhance UV protection. However, it's important to ensure compliance with local laws regarding VLT percentages.


  • Does window tinting help reduce interior heat?

    Yes! Quality window tint films, like those installed by Midwest Autolab, significantly reduce heat buildup inside your vehicle. This keeps your cabin cooler, improves comfort, and reduces strain on your air conditioning system.

  • Can window tinting protect against UV rays?

    Absolutely. Our premium films block up to 99% of harmful UVA and UVB rays, helping to prevent skin damage and fading of your vehicle’s interior surfaces.

  • What types of window tint films do you offer?

    Midwest Autolab offers a wide range of films to fit every need, including Standard Dyed, C2 Carbon, C2 Ceramic, and Apex Ultra Series. Each option balances style, heat rejection, UV protection, and privacy.

  • Will tinted windows improve my vehicle’s privacy and security?

    Yes. Window tinting increases privacy by making it harder to see inside your vehicle and adds a layer of protection against shattered glass in case of an accident or break-in.
