Solar film for cars: THE solution for a cool summer in your car

On summer days, the heat inside your car can make your journeys uncomfortable, even unbearable. This is where solar film for cars comes in as an effective solution for maintaining a pleasant temperature in the vehicle.


Solar films for cars are designed to significantly reduce the amount of heat that penetrates through windows. They use advanced technologies to block a large proportion of the sun's heat-generating rays. This keeps your car's interior temperature at a comfortable level, even under the scorching sun.


By reducing excessive heat, solar films for cars offer several advantages to drivers and passengers. First and foremost, they improve driving comfort by preventing stifling heat sensations and scorching seats. By limiting heat, they reduce the risk of discoloration, cracking and deterioration of materials such as dashboards, seats and plastic trim. This helps maintain your car's aesthetics and durability over the long term.


In addition to the benefits in terms of comfort and interior protection, sun films for cars also offer protection against the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. UV rays can cause skin damage and contribute to premature aging. High-quality solar films effectively block UV rays, offering extra protection for you and your passengers.


When choosing your solar car film, be sure to look for top-quality products that offer both effective heat reduction and UV protection. A top-quality product will be one that lasts the test of time and is easy to apply, even without experience.


At variance-auto.com, we offer top-of-the-range solar films that have been rigorously tested and meet the highest quality standards. You can trust our solar films to provide you with a comfortable and protected summer driving experience.

Thermoforming: a unique and indispensable technique for applying tinted film to cars

Thermoforming is an indispensable technique for installing tinted film on car windows. It enables the tinted film to be adapted to the curves and complex shapes of your vehicle's windows. The result is a perfect, bubble-free fit.


Thermoforming involves heating the tinted film directly on the glass until it reaches a sufficiently high temperature to make it flexible and malleable.


At variance-auto.com, our tinted window kits are thermoformed in our workshop and cut to size from our 4,000 available car models. This makes the installation process much easier for customers, as they receive a ready-to-install kit, perfectly adapted to their vehicle.


By choosing our thermoformed tinted window kits, you save time and hassle involved in cutting and manually adjusting the film on the windows. It's important to stress that thermoforming requires in-depth knowledge and expertise to achieve optimum results. That's why it's advisable to call on experienced professionals to carry out the installation if you're unfamiliar with this technique.


We have a team of specialists trained in thermoforming who are ready to ensure perfect, professional preparation of your tinted film.

How to tint car windows with solar film easily?

The different shades of car window film authorized in France

It's essential to know the regulations governing tinted car windows in France. In France, legislation imposes specific limits on vehicle front windows in terms of visible light transmission (VLT).


French regulations stipulate that at least 70% of light passing through the vehicle's front windows must be visible. This means that you can't tint your car's front windows with films that are too dark, reducing visibility from both inside and outside the vehicle. All tints are available in the right sizes for those who prefer a darker tint.


For the vehicle's rear windows, there are no tint restrictions under the regulations. You can choose from over 6 different tints, ranging from 70% to 5% (full black).


At variance-auto.com, we offer a premium range of easy-to-install tinted films that comply with French tinting standards. Our experts can advise you on tinting options that comply with legislation while meeting your aesthetic preferences. So you can personalize your car's appearance while complying with current regulations.
