Scratch Resistant Window Tint Film

Back in the early years of the window film industry even as last as tech 1980s, many window tints did not have any type of coating to protect against scratches.

Even when installing you had to use a soft cloth wrapped over a hard bondo type squeegee in order not to damage or scratch the film. Property owners considering smart film installation as a premium window solution will find that durability and scratch resistance are equally important factors when evaluating long-term performance and value.

Also the homeowner or building maintenance personel had to use extreme caution when cleaning windows that had solar window film installed because the slightest abrasion could ruin and heavily scratch the window film, making it unsightly to view outside the said glass.

But in time the invention of hard coat or scratch resistant coatings help eliminate this once major problem with solar window tinting films.

Those seeking scratch resistant residential and commercial window film will appreciate how modern advancements have eliminated the fragility concerns that once made routine window cleaning a stressful and damaging process.

Even though 99.9% of all window films today have some sort of a protection coating against scratches, some are stranger and more durable than others.

We have seen some that by just using a "5 way" hard tool with medium pressure, the film could be scratched and gouged. While others you could take a thin piece of extra light grade steel wool and it would take 15 to 30 seconds to wear through the protective barrier.

All window films are not created equal. Sun Tint being a mulitline dealer and having used most all film on the market has learned over 30 years which window films are the best.
