Ceramic Window Tint Melbourne
Ceramic Window Tinting in Melbourne
Ceramic window tint keeps a car cooler because it stops infrared heat, not just visible light. Liquid R fits two ceramic ranges at our Mitcham workshop: 3M Ceramic IR from $595, with 85 percent infrared rejection, and CoolVue from Defcon Films Australia from $695, with 98 percent. Both block 99 percent of UV, both are metal free, and both come in every shade that is legal in Victoria.
If your car is dark, parked outside or does a long commute, ceramic film is the tint that makes a difference you can feel in January. Call 1800 985 880 or text 0483 930 888 to book.

What Makes Tint Ceramic
Ceramic films carry nano ceramic particles that absorb infrared, the part of sunlight that warms your skin through the glass. Dyed films darken the glass and block UV, but let much more of that heat through. The result is a cooler cabin at the same shade, without the metal layer older heat rejecting films used.
3M Ceramic IR from $595
Ceramic IR rejects 85 percent of infrared and 99 percent of UV, with a neutral look from outside. It is the step most commuters take from a dyed film, and it suits dark paint and black interiors that soak up heat. Our guide to the best car tint compares it with the other films.
Ceramic vs Normal Tint
Darker does not mean cooler. A dark dyed tint can let more heat through than a light ceramic one, and Victorian law caps the front sides at 35 percent anyway. So the real choice is film technology within the legal shade. Our entry dyed film, 3M Color Stable from $495, is still a good tint; ceramic is the upgrade for heat. See the full car tinting price list. Every film we fit is listed on the window tinting page.
Light Shade, Cool Cabin
Some drivers want heat rejection without dark glass, for night visibility or a factory look. Ceramic films and 3M Crystalline from $750 reject heat at light shades, so the cabin stays cool and the glass stays clear. Crystalline is a multi-layer optical film rather than a ceramic, and it is the lightest high performance option we fit. The legal limits are set out in our guide to Victorian tint laws.
No Signal Interference
Ceramic film has no metal in it, so e-tags, GPS, 5G, DAB radio and keyless entry all work exactly as before. Signal problems come from metallised budget films and cannot be fixed without stripping the tint. More in our article on what to know about window tinting.
Ceramic Tint on EV Glass Roofs
A panoramic roof turns an electric car into a greenhouse on a hot day. Ceramic film on the roof glass cuts that heat, or Crystal Shield from $350 adds heat control and stone strike protection with a clear factory look. Read more on EV paint protection. Tesla owners will find more on our Tesla page.
Ceramic Tint in a New Car Package
Pack 3 and Pack 4 of our new car protection packages include 3M Color Stable tint, and both can be upgraded to 3M Ceramic IR or CoolVue. One drop-off covers coating, interior protection and ceramic tint. What else to do in the first month is in our guide to new car paint protection.
Fitting and Curing
Film is plotter cut to your glass and fitted indoors. Keep the windows up for two to three days, and expect a light haze or small moisture pockets in the first week that clear on their own. Our ceramic tint guide covers how it performs over time. More about our workshop, and directions on the contact page.

Yes. Ceramic films come in every shade, and we fit the darkest legal shade by default: at least 35 percent light transmission on front side windows in Victoria.
