"I am absolutely amazed by the comprehensive and almost surgical level auto detailing, professionalism of the staff, pricing and overall experience I had with Waxx It. They are honestly the best deal around and provide a tremendously valuable service. They made my '06 Honda Civic look BETTER than the day it rolled off the lot. Absolutely amazed, can't recommend them enough, I'll be back in 6 months!"

"Donny George: Haus of Wraps Review: Exceptional Service for Tesla Paint Protection and Tinting I recently had the pleasure of entrusting my 2024 Tesla Performance to Haus of Wraps for both paint protection film installation and window tinting, and I couldn't be more impressed with the results. The team at Haus of Wraps demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise right from the initial consultation. They took the time to thoroughly explain the process of applying the paint protection film, ensuring that my Tesla's front end would be safeguarded against chips and scratches without compromising its sleek aesthetic. The attention to detail was evident throughout the installation, with flawless application that seamlessly blended with the car's factory finish. Moreover, Haus of Wraps' tinting services exceeded my expectations. The tint was applied evenly and precisely, enhancing privacy without obstructing visibility. They offered a range of tint options, and their recommendation perfectly complemented the color and style of my Tesla. Beyond their technical proficiency, Haus of Wraps provided excellent customer service. They were responsive to my questions and concerns, and they completed the work within the agreed-upon timeframe. Overall, I highly recommend Haus of Wraps for anyone looking to protect and enhance their vehicle. Their commitment to quality craftsmanship and customer satisfaction sets them apart, making them a top choice for automotive customization services."

Front Windshield:Non-reflective tint above AS-1 line
Front Side Windows:Must allow 70% of light to pass through
Back Side Windows:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
Rear Window:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
California's strict car window tinting laws require front side windows to have at least 70% VLT (Visible Light Transmission), keeping them relatively clear. Back side and rear windows can have any darkness level. Windshield tint is limited to the top 4 inches. California prohibits red, amber, and blue tinting, and reflectivity cannot exceed standard window levels. Dual side mirrors are required with tinted back windows. Professional window tinting services ensure compliance while providing heat rejection for California's sunny climate.
