Tinting car windows: more protection, more privacy
It is true that, nowadays, most cars come from the factory with tinted glass. But it is also possible to get them afterwards, as it is an incredibly quick and simple procedure. That is, as long as you have a professional technical team like that of the Ralarsa automobile glass workshop.
The interest in tinting car windows has increased in recent years, bringing benefits both for the occupants of the vehicle and for the car itself. In the past, however, it was merely something aesthetic.
With tinted windows it is possible to block the entry of solar or ultraviolet rays into the interior of the car. In this way, you will be able to drive with more pleasant temperature levels, especially in summer. Likewise, this leads to energy savings, since maximum air conditioning will not be necessary, or it might even be possible to do without it.
The direct incidence of the sun inside means that internal elements such as upholstery or seats can wear out. Thanks to tinted windows, this will remain in good condition for longer, avoiding direct exposure to the sun. In case of an accident, tinting car windows will be beneficial to avoid serious personal injuries, preventing glass from coming loose.
On the other hand, another advantage offered by this type of glass is privacy. Thus, the peace of mind of users increases, since with dark glass it is difficult to see the valuable objects inside.
Rain-repellent treatment for cars: guaranteed visibility
An unobstructed field of vision is essential for the driver of a vehicle. But, what happens when a storm starts in the middle of the trip? It is time to activate the windscreen wipers. Even so, sometimes visibility may be considerably reduced, thus involving risks that must be taken into account.
It is clear that weather conditions cannot be controlled, however there are some methods to make their effects less serious. One of them is the rain-repellent treatment for cars. It consists of a liquid made up of elements such as acrylic resins and is applied with a spray, applying it to the car’s windscreen. Thanks to this, when it rains, water droplets will slide off and will not hinder vision of the road.
In addition to having a complete and correct view of what is in front of us, the rain-repellent treatment for cars also has protective functions. In fact, it is very effective in preventing the accumulation of dirt. Another situation in which it can be very helpful is during winter, as it will make it easier to clean the front glass in low temperatures, especially if ice forms.
Polishing car headlights: superior lighting
When we set out to cover a long route, it is likely that we will have to drive once the sun has gone down. Or there are even drivers who prefer to travel at night. Whatever your case, you should consider the importance of polishing car headlights.
The lights of a vehicle are one of the fundamental elements of the whole, so excellent maintenance is essential. And without it, the car will not be able to pass the roadworthiness inspection (ITV). Thus, it is clear that it is not only something aesthetic, but also that good lighting benefits driving safety.
Over time, the car’s headlights progressively take on an opaque appearance. This results in a loss of transparency, which may be caused by the heat from the bulbs themselves or by the impact of the sun’s rays. In poorly lit scenarios or in the middle of rain and fog, this can work against us, making visibility not the best. For this reason, from the Ralarsa automobile glass workshop we put at your disposal the car headlight polishing treatment. Betting on a journey free from mishaps is possible!
Car window replacement: glass in perfect condition
As obvious as it may seem, each and every one of the windows must be kept free of impacts and cracks. And the fact is, however small an impact may seem, any obstacle on the road can cause greater damage and enlarge the size of the hole. That is why a thorough check of the glass is essential, especially when we are about to undertake a long trip.
At Ralarsa, we also opt for sustainable services. Thus, whenever possible we will carry out a windscreen repair and not a replacement. To determine this, an assessment by a professional and specialized technical team will be necessary. If the glass has a clean hole, that is, without cracks, it can be repaired. If, on the other hand, the hole has cracks and the impact is larger than a 2 euro coin, it is most likely that it will have to be replaced.
For any of these services you can count on us. At Ralarsa we promote road safety and, for that reason, we invite you to visit one of our workshops. Choose the nearest one and make sure you enjoy holidays without unforeseen events on the road – we are waiting for you!
