At Wrapcity, one of the most common questions we get from customers is, “How long does it take to tint a car from start to finish?” The answer depends on a few factors such as the type of vehicle, the number of windows being tinted, and the complexity of the job. However, in most cases, you can expect the tinting process to take between 1.5 to 4 hours.
For a standard sedan, the window tinting process typically takes about 2 to 3 hours. If you’re tinting a larger vehicle like an SUV or a van, it may take a little longer—usually closer to 3 to 4 hours—due to the additional surface area and window count. If you’re only tinting specific windows, such as just the rear or front side windows, the job can be done in as little as 1 to 1.5 hours.
At Wrapcity, we take pride in combining efficiency with precision. Our skilled technicians carefully clean and prepare each window, custom cut the film for an exact fit, and apply it with expert-level care to ensure a flawless, bubble-free finish. We never rush the process because we know that high-quality results depend on attention to detail.
It’s also important to consider drying time after the installation. While the film is securely in place before you drive away, we recommend keeping the windows rolled up for at least 48 hours to allow the adhesive to cure fully. This ensures your tint lasts longer and looks perfect.
Whether you want to improve your car’s appearance, reduce heat and glare, or add a layer of privacy, Wrapcity offers professional window tinting services tailored to your needs. Our experienced team is here to provide you with fast, reliable, and high-quality results—every time.
