## Local detail

There is very little professional tinting available locally in Wicklow Town, so most people end up travelling for it either way. We are about forty minutes south on the M11 — usually the shorter of the options.

Wicklow's commuter belt runs hard into Dublin, so cars here rack up motorway miles with the sun low across the Irish Sea for most of the morning. Heat-rejecting film keeps the cabin usable without cranking air conditioning, which matters more on a long daily run than on short town trips.

For anyone commuting through Dublin, worth knowing: the legal limits on front glass are national, not county-based, so a legal tint here is a legal tint everywhere in the State.

## Getting here

M11 south from Wicklow Town, exit for Gorey — around 40 minutes.

Roads used: M11 Junctions 17–18, R750 coast road, N11 Rathnew, R772 Ashford.

## Driving and parking in Wicklow Town

Wicklow Town parking on the Murrough, at the harbour and around the courthouse is open and east-facing, so cars take direct morning sun off the Irish Sea and hold the heat all day.

## Vehicles typically tinted from Wicklow Town

Long-distance Dublin commuter cars racking up motorway miles, estates and SUVs, and a growing number of hybrids where cabin heat costs fuel and range.

## Same-day collection

Forty minutes south on the M11 — an early slot means the car is back with you the same evening.

## Why drivers in Wicklow Town tint

Long Dublin commutes, east-coast morning sun, and motorway miles that make heat rejection worth it.

## Frequently asked questions — Wicklow Town

### Do you tint cars in Wicklow Town?

Yes. We serve Wicklow Town from our workshop in Gorey, Co. Wexford, about 40 minutes away. You drive the car to us; there is no branch in Wicklow Town and we do not fit outdoors.

### How much does window tinting cost in Wicklow Town?

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 Wicklow Town?

Our Gorey workshop, roughly 40 minutes from Wicklow Town, also used by drivers from Rathnew, Ashford, Brittas Bay. 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 Wicklow Town 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 Wicklow Town 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.
