How much does window tint cost in Milpitas?
For a sedan at 68 Auto Film, LLumar Formula One Pinnacle is $599 for all side windows and the rear window, out the door (tax included). Adding the windshield makes a full car $999. The 4 side windows are $449 and the front 2 windows only are $299 in Pinnacle; windshield-only tint is $399. Classic, Stratos and AirBlue 80 pricing is by text — text us your car for an exact price. SUVs, trucks and other vehicles are quoted per vehicle.
What's the difference between Classic, Pinnacle and Stratos?
Classic is a color-stable dyed, non-ceramic film — the most affordable. Pinnacle uses ceramic particles to reject much more heat. Stratos is LLumar's best: a Hybrid-Matrix nano-ceramic with the highest heat rejection of the three. All block over 99% of UV and carry LLumar's lifetime film warranty.
Can I get heat rejection without dark windows?
Yes — LLumar AirBlue 80 (AIR 80) is nearly clear at 77% visible light transmission, yet rejects 43% of total solar energy and 86% of selective infrared energy. It's most often applied to windshields (text us for pricing on your car) but can go on any glass. It's also the answer when you want lighter than Classic's lightest 50% shade.
Does window tint block UV rays?
Yes. Every LLumar film installed at 68 Auto Film — Classic, Pinnacle, Stratos and AirBlue 80 — blocks more than 99% of UV rays, protecting both passengers and the interior.
Will tint affect my GPS or phone signal?
No. LLumar lists Pinnacle and Stratos as no-signal-interference films, and none of the films we install use metal that can block signals.
Do you tint the windshield?
Yes. On a sedan, windshield tint is $399 in Pinnacle. Classic, AirBlue 80 and Stratos windshield pricing is by text — text us your car. California law allows only a strip at the top of the windshield, so full-windshield tint is installed at the customer's own discretion — ask us and read our California tint law summary before you decide.
How is a Tesla priced?
We price a Tesla Model Y like a sedan, because the glass area and install time are about the same — Pinnacle starts at $599, out the door. Other Tesla models and EVs are quoted per vehicle; text us your model for an exact price.
What warranty comes with my tint?
Every tint job at 68 Auto Film includes LLumar's lifetime film warranty.
What does the tint deposit cost, and is it refundable?

When can I drop off my car?
Drop-offs start at 9:30 AM, Monday through Friday, at 51 Minnis Cir in Milpitas. Text or call (510) 657-6868 to line up your appointment.
Do you offer paint protection film too?
