New Harley Davidson motorcycle with their top of the line premium factory paint scheme. "Citrus Heat" Some dealer showroom blemishes. I wanted the blemishes removed with the painted surfaces to show well reflecting the character and detail in the custom paint. Presented to Jason at Monster who recommend a light, level 1 paint correction with a Ceramic finish. From previous experience with our Q-5, I trusted Monster with this project. As expected the bike finished out beautifully Completed on time as quoted with great friendly service. A really professional business. Thank you Monster.

I recently used Monster Auto Lab to install PPF on my truck and the entire experience was truly 5-star from start to finish. From the initial appointment booking right through to pickup, everything was professional, organized, and customer-focused.

The workmanship was absolutely first class. The attention to detail, fit, and finish exceeded my expectations, and the truck looked fantastic when I picked it up.

There are many installers to choose from, and I highly recommend Monster Auto to anyone looking for quality PPF installation and excellent customer service.

Extremely please with the professional service and quality of work these guys do. I chose the full Xpel clear wrap package on my SUV and it came out amazing. Took 5 days to complete and you know why after you see it. Not a single flaw anywhere. I will definitely be recommending these guys to everyone.

Had a great experience with Monster Auto Lab. I recently got XPEL window tint done and the service from the owner was top notch. The whole process from drop-off to pick-up was smooth and professional.

What really stood out was that after chatting with him in the morning and mentioning I mainly wanted the tint for my kids, he upgraded me to a better option for heat blocking at no extra charge. He gave honest, informative advice and helped me choose what made the most sense.

Super genuine service and excellent quality work. Highly recommend.

Thoroughly professional and attentive service Ryan answered all our questions, detailed their procedures and returned our car right on time. I have only had the car back 1 week so can only give an initial impression that the service was provided as promised. On that basis I would give them 5 stars...Mark

FAQ – AUTOMOTIVE WINDOW TINT 

 

What is the best car window tint for heat rejection and UV protection?

For superior comfort and protection, XPEL Prime XR Plus offers maximum heat rejection and SPF 1,000 UV protection, while CS Black provides style and SPF 500 protection. Both help keep your vehicle cooler and your interior safe.

How much heat can automotive window tint block?

XPEL Prime XR Plus blocks up to 96% of infrared heat, keeping your cabin cool, while CS Black provides up to 12% heat rejection. Professional installation ensures optimal performance.

Does ceramic or dyed window tint protect against UV rays?

Yes! Both ceramic and dyed films shield against harmful UV rays. XR Plus offers SPF 1,000, while CS Black provides SPF 500, helping prevent skin damage and interior fading.

Will car window tint interfere with Bluetooth, WiFi, or radio signals?

No. XR Plus and CS Black are non-metallic, so they won’t interfere with radio, cellular, Bluetooth, or in-cabin WiFi signals.

Is front window tint legal in BC and what are compliant options?

Front window tint is illegal in BC, but optically clear films are available for front windows that provide UV protection and heat rejection while staying fully compliant.

How long does car window tint last and what warranties are available?

High-quality window tints last a lifetime. XR Plus comes with a lifetime transferable warranty, while CS Black has a lifetime non-transferable warranty, ensuring long-term protection and peace of mind.

What is the difference between ceramic and dyed window tint?

Ceramic tint offers superior heat rejection, UV protection, and clarity using advanced nano-ceramic technology, making it the best option for comfort and long-term performance.

Dyed tint is a more budget-friendly option that improves appearance and privacy but provides less heat rejection and overall performance.
