Ceramic IR window tint for Lynnwood: cooler cabins in freeway traffic and privacy in busy parking lots. From $190, at our Monroe or Tukwila shop.
Two to Match (front two windows) is $190, Standard (five windows) is $450 and Large (seven windows) is $550. A windshield strip across the top of the glass is $100, cut around your car's cameras. We stock Ceramic IR in 15%, 25%, 35% and 70%, and we'll go over Washington's rules for each window. Ceramic film rejects heat through the ceramic, not the darkness, so a moderate shade keeps the cabin noticeably cooler without making night driving harder. Keep the windows up for two to five days after install.
From the Martha Lake and Mill Creek side of Lynnwood, Monroe via I-405 and SR-522 east is often easier. From the Alderwood and I-5 side, Tukwila via I-5 or I-405 south can be the better run, depending on traffic. Most tint jobs take one to four hours.
Cars parked at the light rail garage, around Alderwood Mall and at the offices and shops along Highway 99 and 196th Street sit in the open for hours. Tint keeps them cooler and keeps valuables out of sight.
