Ceramic Window Tinting Slidell

They usually describe the same thing. Nano-ceramic film uses ceramic particles to work on infrared energy, which is a major part of the heat you feel through glass, and many installers call that an IR film. Kepler's automotive ranges, IR and IR+, are both nano-ceramic. Because the naming varies between brands, the useful step is to compare the published figures for the exact film and shade rather than the label on the box.

Kepler ceramic film is designed to work across the solar spectrum rather than on one part of it: ultraviolet light, visible light and infrared energy. Visible light transmission, the VLT number attached to each shade, describes how much light passes through the film. It is a separate measure from solar heat performance, so a darker shade does not automatically mean more heat rejection. Ask your installer for the performance data on the specific Kepler film and shade you are considering, then match it to how you use the car.

Ceramic film gives you control over three things at once: the light coming through the glass, ultraviolet exposure that fades interiors, and the infrared energy that makes a cabin uncomfortable on a hot Slidell afternoon. Kepler's IR and IR+ ranges are both nano-ceramic, so you choose the performance level first and the shade second. The film is non-metallic, which keeps phone, GPS and keyless signals clear of the interference some older metalized tints caused.

Tesla owners in Slidell can also read about Tesla window tinting, as the glazing and the right film vary by model and year.

It depends on the vehicle, the number and shape of the windows, whether any existing film needs removing, and which Kepler range and shade you choose. A large SUV with a wraparound rear window is not the same job as a two-door coupe. Ask a local tinter whether they carry Kepler film or can get it.

Give the film time to cure before cleaning it, then keep to soft cloths and a mild, ammonia-free cleaner. Abrasive pads, scrapers and harsh chemicals are what damage film over time, not normal washing. Your installer will tell you how long to wait before rolling the windows down. For step-by-step advice, see our "how to clean window tint" page.

A simple heat lamp test gives you a feel for it. Put a thermometer behind a tinted window, aim the lamp at the glass and compare the readings with and without film in the path. It is a demonstration rather than a laboratory measurement, but it shows how much radiant heat the film is holding back. For published figures, ask for the data sheet on your exact film and shade. Separately, check that the shade you want suits the rules on our window tint laws page.

Louisiana sets rules covering which windows may be tinted and how much light the film must let through, and they differ by window position and vehicle type. We keep the current details, diagrams and technical data on our window tint laws page. Read it before you settle on a shade, and confirm the specifics with your installer, since choosing a film and meeting the regulations are two separate decisions.

Dyed films mainly reduce light, and metalized films add reflectivity but can interfere with in-car signals. Nano-ceramic films such as Kepler IR and IR+ use non-metallic ceramic particles that target infrared energy, so you can get meaningful heat control without going very dark and without signal interference. The fair comparison is always between the published figures for particular films at a particular shade.

Ceramic film sits at the top end because of how it behaves day to day: a clean, even appearance with no metallic mirror look, clear views out, no interference with phones or keyless entry, and heat and UV control that you notice most in summer traffic. Choose the shade for the look, and the range for the performance level you want.

Kepler supplies film to independent installers, and those businesses handle customers, quoting and fitting themselves. Ask a local tinter whether they carry Kepler film or can get it. Where availability is not confirmed, it is worth asking an installer directly whether they can source and install Kepler film for your vehicle.
