Your car tinted at home or work

Ben Smith brings Global Tint's mobile fitting service to Kettering driveways and workplace car parks. The van carries the equipment and its own power, so you won't need to provide electricity for the job. Rain doesn't stop us fitting the film, because it goes on the inside of your car's glass.

Tinting a full car usually takes 1.5 to 2.5 hours, depending on the vehicle. In your car, film reduces glare and heat, provides privacy and blocks up to 99% of UV. We visit customers around Barton Seagrave and Burton Latimer too, so you don't need a workshop trip.

Window tint shades

For your Kettering car, rear side glass and the rear windscreen can take any of the available shades. The percentages show how much light passes through: Onyx 5% is darkest, followed by Luna 20%, Twilight 35%, Fifty 50% and the lightest option, 70%. Your installer advises which shades are legal, and the website's tint viewer shows the shades on your own make and model. For windows in a building, see our separate Kettering home and office film page.

What happens when the installer arrives?

They look over the car, go through the shades and which are legal on each window, then fit the film from inside the car. Most cars take 1.5 to 2.5 hours, and you get a warranty card, a microfibre cloth, a keyring and care instructions at the end.

Does the weather matter?

Rarely. The film goes on the inside of the glass, so rain doesn’t stop the job, and the van carries its own power and everything the installer needs.

What if something goes wrong later?

Car tint comes with a lifetime warranty for as long as you own the car. If it peels, bubbles or fades, the installer comes back to your home or workplace and fixes it.

How we work

Everything comes on the van

The van is independently powered and carries everything the installer needs, so you don’t have to provide electricity or a garage. A driveway or a workplace car park is enough.

What you get with every car

Every car tint has a lifetime warranty while you own the car, and the job isn’t finished until you’ve seen the result.

A clean handover

Before leaving, the installer goes round the car with you so you can see the finished windows, and leaves the car clean.

Lifetime warranty

For as long as you own the car. If the tint peels, bubbles or fades, we come back to your home or workplace to fix it.

Aftercare kit

A warranty card, a microfibre cleaning cloth, a keyring and care instructions. Small water bubbles or a slight haze are normal while the film dries, and they clear on their own.

    The film goes on inside the car, so a wet day doesn’t cancel your booking.

    Great job

    “Ben, arrived at my home in the time slot allocated to me. He was polite, very helpful and friendly. The job was completed swiftly and professionally. He left me a free micro fibre cloth and card with £10 off if I use him again. 👍🏼😊 Thanks Ben I'd definitely recommend you.”

    “An awesome service overall! I booked to have my windows tinted after getting a quote (incredible value) online. Ben arrived exactly on time and was chatty, friendly, and kind. He cut and fitted the tints within a couple of hours and the end result looks amazing. I was also able to pay using his portable card machine. I highly recommend using Global Tint. A no hassle, friendly service.”

    “Well all of the positive reviews were right ! From start to finish Renan was outstanding. We discussed the tint shade that I had selected and agreed that it was right. Despite installing in 30+ degree heat Renan didn't stop. He clearly knows his stuff and his advise about drying time etc was spot on. The tints have totally transferred the car and has made a real difference. Thank you ! Keep up the good work ! Thanks Dean”

    “Great experience from start to finish. Great communication even down to a text an hour before Mike was due as he was doing the job at my house which was the bonus of choosing Global Tint. When he turned up was a very pleasant guy, got on with the job and was finished within three quarters of an hour with no problems and the job was done perfectly. Would definitely use global tint again and recommend them to anyone.”

    Fantastic service

    “Couldn’t recommend this company enough, went above and beyond to pick up my keys from my work address to make sure I got the job done at home today (which I knew would be a hassle) - Great communication throughout, would definitely use again. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers to the questions drivers in Kettering ask us most.

All window tint services provided by Global Tint Kettering are lawful and compliant with the local Kettering government laws. 

Do you cover the Kettering area beyond the town?

Yes, the area beyond the town is among the places we serve, along with Kettering itself. We also cover Geddington & Stanion. You can have the film fitted at your home or workplace once you've got a price and chosen a time.

Do you have a tinting workshop in Kettering?

No, the service here is mobile, with no Global Tint workshop in the town. We tint your car where it's parked at home or work, and the fully equipped van carries everything needed for fitting.

Is Bedford served by the same installer?

No, Bedford has its own Global Tint team, separate from our franchise owner, and is 21 miles away. Use Global Tint’s Bedford car tinting page for the service details in that town.

How much light must the front windows let through?

For cars first used on or after 1 April 1985, the windscreen must let at least 75% of light through and the front side glass at least 70%. Earlier cars need at least 70% through both. The limits apply to the glass and film together, so the film's percentage alone doesn't tell you what's legal.

What does the car tint warranty cover?

It covers tint that peels, bubbles or fades for as long as you own the car. For a Kettering fitting, your installer comes back to your home or workplace to fix the tint. You'll also get a warranty card, microfibre cleaning cloth, keyring and care instructions after the fitting.
