Most people want to take good care of their cars; after all, we spend a lot of time and money on them, and we want to protect that investment. You know about changing the oil, taking care of regularly scheduled maintenance, and all the other tasks they mention in the owner’s manual. But did you know there’s a simple way to protect your car that many car owners overlook?

Picture this: It’s a hot, sunny day, and you’re pulling into a parking lot for the day. Maybe you’re going to the beach or maybe it’s just a regular work day, but your car will be parked there for a while. You try to park in the shade when you can, you faithfully use the window shade to cover the front window, but still you’re not doing all you can to protect your car.

Failing to protect your car’s interior is one of the most critical car maintenance mistakes you can make. Even with the front window shade or parking in the occasional shady spot, most people park their cars in the sun for a significant portion of the car’s life. Over time, this can lead to noticeable fading of your interior, especially the fabrics.

There’s a simple way to protect your interior with car window film. Window films protect the car’s interior whether you park for short or long times, and you won’t have to worry about using unwieldy sunshades or other such contraptions.

Aside from protection your car’s interior, car window film will help keep you comfortable while you’re driving. Your old sunshade can’t make that claim! Blocking out the UV rays keeps the interior from cracking and fading, and it will keep the temperature lower for your comfort. Filtering UV rays can also help protect your skin from the sun’s damaging effects, which is especially nice for long drives or if you spend a lot of time in your car.

Window shades aren’t limited to the dark colors associated with limousines or custom cars. In fact, you can even have a clear window shade that will filter out the UV rays without changing the look of your car. Of course, if you prefer the added privacy or just like the darker look, you can choose a tinted film.
