While detailing & reconditioning are the bread & butter of what we do here at NWAS, we’re also big on film. No, we’re not talking about spending hours in the dark room or melting away in a hot editing bay, but rather the type of film used in the latest & greatest vehicle wraps, paint protection, and window tint installations.
We’ve kept a watchful eye on the window tint market over the last few years, and while the early stages of our tint operations were purely for aesthetics, nowadays it has transformed into something more. Until recently, we only offered one type of ceramic film in 2 shades of transparency, but given more recent developments in film production, emergent technology, and market demand, we’re now offering 3 tiers of window tint options, giving way to a massive range of aesthetic & functional film solutions for any vehicle around. At the top of the mark, you’ll find one of the most impressive window film products to date, Prestige Film Technologies Spectra PhotoSync.
Prestige Film Technologies Spectra PhotoSync installed on Tesla Model S
To highlight this incredibly innovative product, we’ve chosen an incredibly innovative car, the Tesla Model S. As you probably already know, we’re big fans of “future” technology, so it really only makes sense that one of the safest & most advanced vehicles to date would be equipped with an equally advanced tinting system. Like we said, tinting isn’t necessarily just about aesthetics anymore, but also about improving the overall experience of being in your car. That’s where a full Spectra PhotoSync installation comes in; 75% on the windshield, and 35% all around!
Spectra PhotoSync Window Tint
Like any other tint installation, the Spectra PhotoSync film will be custom cut to fit your windows with minimal gaps & perfectly clean edges. Unlike any other tint installation, Spectra PhotoSync utilizes the latest IR and Solar Adaptive Coating (SAC) that was developed in-house by Prestige, and the film will actually adjust its shade and reduce visual light transmission by up to 11% depending on how intense the sunlight is outside! Yes, that’s right, it actually gets darker just like transition lenses for sunglasses. Once the coating is activated, PhotoSync can reject up to 98.5% of all infrared rays, and drastically cut the internal temperature of your interior by reducing total solar energy by up to 79% (TSER.)

Much like our other window tint offerings, PhotoSync contains no metals in its composition, and thus will not interfere with any sort of signal transmission from GPS, cell phones, satellite radio, keyless entry, or the like. Beyond that, PhotoSync comes with a non-transferable Lifetime Warranty from material defects in manufacturing, bubbling from adhesive failure, purpling, and cracking from UV exposure.

Did we mention it looks great, too? Compared to the fishbowl of a factory Model S, the new 35% tint on the side windows really completes the luxurious appearance.

From inside the cabin looking out, it’s hard to tell if there’s even a film on the windshield! There’s still plenty of light streaming in, and outward visibility hasn’t been reduced in the slightest.

From side to side, it’s a bit darker, but hardly as dark as it appears from outside the vehicle.

Once installed, the film itself is crystal clear and visibility is as sharp as factory glass. Aside from the functional benefits of installing Spectra PhotoSync, the aesthetic qualities of the film are unmatched.

Under the simulated natural light of the photostudio, it’s easy to see how much more privacy Spectra PhotoSync 35 offers the interior versus the 75 installed on the windshield.

Even on a cloudy day in the North West, the solar adaptive coating kicks it into gear and brings the visible light transmission down a notch. The windshield is just ever-so-slightly darker, and the side windows level out to a nice, dark, 35%.

And with that, another Tesla Model S is ready to hit the streets. Keep in mind that Spectra PhotoSync is available in a wide variety of transparencies ranging from 35 to 75, so regardless of whether or not you want to get tinted for aesthetics & added privacy, you’ll always have the incredible advantages of the Solar Adaptive Coating & 79% TSER that this product offers.
