Window Tinting appointment Process
Tint Consultation & Selection
We start by helping you pick the perfect tint based on your style, needs, and Virginia’s legal tint regulations. You'll review shade options and film types so you know exactly what you're getting—no guesswork.
Precision Film Installation
After prepping, we hand-apply the window film with care. Our installers smooth out every edge to create a clean, wrinkle-free finish that looks factory-installed.
Surface Prep
We thoroughly clean each window to remove dirt, dust, and oils. Proper prep ensures the film bonds correctly and prevents bubbles or peeling over time.
Final Inspection & Approval
Every window is carefully checked for bubbles, gaps, or loose edges. Once it meets our quality standards, we return your vehicle looking sharp, cool, and protected.
Driving around Newport News, VA often feels like standing under a giant heat lamp. The sun beats down, filling your car with hot, heavy air and blinding light. It doesn’t just make you sweat — it slowly ruins your car’s inside. Dashboards crack. Seats lose their color. Over time, your ride starts to look old and tired.
At first, you might not notice the damage. A small crack here, a little fading there. But after a few hot seasons, the inside of your car feels rough and broken. Fixing that damage costs a lot. Plus, a car that looks worn-out won’t hold its value for long. The longer you wait, the worse it gets.
At Compass Car Detailing, We don’t just tint windows. We protect your vehicle from the beating sun, block the heat, and give your car a clean, sharp appearance that lasts. You’ll notice the change the first time you get behind the wheel. And down the line, your car — and your wallet — will be better off.









Choosing the Right Window Tint for Your Car

Type | Benefits | Considerations |
---|---|---|
Ceramic Window Tint | Blocks the most solar heat and UV rays. Keeps GPS, phone, and radio signals working without problems. | Costs more than other types of tint. |
Carbon Window Tint | Stays strong against fading. Gives your car a cool matte look while blocking heat and UV rays. | Costs more than dyed tint. Doesn’t block heat as well as ceramic. |
Dyed Window Tint | Budget-friendly option. Adds privacy and makes your car look darker. | Fades faster than carbon or ceramic tint over time. |
Not sure which one fits your car best?
We’ll go over all the choices with you during your consultation so you can pick the one that makes the most sense.

Frequently Asked Questions
The automotive window tinting process usually takes 5 to 6 hours for experts to install. We focus on getting the job done efficiently and making scheduling easy. Using high-quality window film speeds up the process and ensures the results meet tinting rules.
Virginia’s local tint laws say that front side windows must let at least 50% visible light through and the back side and rear windows can be darker.
In Virginia, tinting the front windshield is generally prohibited, except for drivers who have a Sun-Shading Medical Authorization.
You can drive your car right after tinting, but the film needs time to dry. Most of the time, it takes about 3 to 5 days. If it’s cold or raining a lot, it might take closer to two weeks for the tint to fully stick to the glass.
Hold off on washing your car for at least 3 to 5 days after getting new tint. This helps the film stay smooth and strong. Stay away from high-pressure washes and don’t roll your windows down during this time.
Ceramic tint is the top choice if you live in a hot place like Newport News. It blocks a lot more heat and UV rays than regular tints. Plus, it doesn’t mess with your GPS, phone, or radio signals.
Yes, good window films come with a warranty that covers peeling, bubbling, cracking, and fading. We’ll explain what’s covered and answer any questions before we start the job.
Choosing the best window tint film depends on what you care about most. If you want more privacy, a darker film with lower visible light transmission (VLT) might be the right pick. If you’re looking for better UV protection and to keep your car cooler, look for films designed for heat rejection and blocking infrared rays (IR).
When it comes to automotive window tint, not all films are the same. Basic dyed tint darkens your windows but doesn’t block much heat. High-end car window tint film, like ceramic or carbon films, offers much better heat rejection and still lets your phone, GPS, and radio work normally inside the car.
Proper car window tinting takes more than just slapping on a film. After the glass is cleaned, a heat gun is often used to help the film shape to the curves of your windows. This makes sure the tint is smooth and clear without bubbles. High-quality installers always check the rejection rates for heat and UV before picking the best film for your needs.
