## Local detail

Bray drivers usually weigh up going into Dublin or coming south to us. South is the easier drive: the M11 the whole way, no tolls on the route, no city parking at the end of it, and the car goes straight into a workshop bay rather than a queue.

Bray runs a lot of seafront and Dublin-commuter mileage, which is the worst combination for glare — sun off the Irish Sea in the morning and low sun on the way home. Heat-rejecting film on the front sides, kept inside the legal limit, is the change commuters here notice first.

If the car is a family car doing Bray-to-Dublin runs with kids in the back, the usual spec is a legal front pair plus a darker rear set — cooler back seats and no glare in car seats.

## Getting here

M11 south from Bray, straight through to the Gorey exits — about 55 minutes outside rush hour.

Roads used: M11 Junctions 5–7, N11 Dublin Road, R761 Bray seafront, Southern Cross Route.

## Driving and parking in Bray

Bray seafront, the DART station and the Southern Cross parks are all long-stay open-air, so a commuter car is often sitting in sun and salt air from 7am until evening.

## Vehicles typically tinted from Bray

Dublin commuter hatchbacks and saloons, family SUVs with kids in the back on the M11 run, and a steady number of EVs.

## Same-day collection

Fifty-five minutes straight down the M11 with no tolls and no city parking at the end — an early booking is a same-day collection.

## Why drivers in Bray tint

Seafront glare, heavy Dublin commuting, and family cars that need cool back seats.

## Frequently asked questions — Bray

### Do you tint cars in Bray?

Yes. We serve Bray from our workshop in Gorey, Co. Wexford, about 55 minutes away. You drive the car to us; there is no branch in Bray and we do not fit outdoors.

### How much does window tinting cost in Bray?

The same fitted prices apply wherever you drive from: from €90 for a set of front windows, from €140 for a rear set and from €190 for a full car excluding the windscreen. Saloons start at €100 and SUVs or jeeps at €110, up to €240 for a full SUV. There is no travel charge and no quote-on-the-day surprise.

### Where is the nearest place to get car windows tinted to Bray?

Our Gorey workshop, roughly 55 minutes from Bray, also used by drivers from Shankill, Enniskerry, Kilmacanogue. Because everything is fitted indoors in one dust-controlled space, the finish is consistent in a way mobile fitting cannot match.

### How long will my car be with you?

Most cars are finished in two to three hours, so a run from Bray is a single trip. Drop it in the morning and it is normally ready the same afternoon. Leave the windows up for 3 to 5 days afterwards while the film cures.

### Is the tint legal to drive in Wicklow?

Yes, when the shades are kept inside Irish limits: at least 65% light transmission on the windscreen and 50% on the front side windows. Rear doors, quarter glass and the rear screen have no darkness limit, so those can go as dark as you like. We check the shade against the limits before we start, not after.

### Will tinted windows fail the NCT?

Legal rear tint does not fail an NCT. A car fails when the windscreen or front side windows drop below the light-transmission levels above, or when damaged film obstructs vision. If a previous installer went too dark up front, we can strip it and refit a legal film.

### Does the tint block UV and reduce heat?

Quality automotive film blocks effectively all UVA and UVB, which is what fades dashboards and bleaches rear seats. Heat is different: dyed film mainly cuts glare, while ceramic film rejects a large share of infrared. We will tell you plainly which one your budget buys.

### Can you remove old or purple tint before fitting new film?

Yes. Old film is steamed and peeled, the adhesive cleaned off the glass, and the car re-tinted properly. Tint removal is charged at €200 because it is slow work, and rear screens are done carefully to protect the demister lines.

### Do you tint vans and jeeps for Bray businesses?

Yes. Rear and load-area glass on vans, jeeps and crew cabs can be blacked out completely for load security, with the cab glass kept inside the legal limits. Commercial vehicles are priced on the SUV / jeep scale.

### What is covered by the warranty?

A Lifetime Manufacturer Warranty on the film — covering bubbling, peeling, cracking and colour change (purpling) — plus our own Lifetime Installation Guarantee on the fitting. Damage caused by ammonia-based cleaners or blades on the inside of the glass is not covered.
