SunGuard™ Eco Series Charcoal Window Film
Affordable. Forgiving. Factory Look.
Designed for DIY enthusiasts, beginners, and budget-conscious professionals, the SunGuard™ Eco Series offers an ideal entry point into window tinting without compromising on looks. This glue-tinted dyed film delivers a classic charcoal finish with excellent UV and heat rejection, while staying wallet-friendly — perfect for learning, practice, or low-cost installations.
Whether you’re tinting a daily driver, working on a budget build, or doing light residential/commercial jobs, this film offers that factory-style dark look with easy shrinking and installation. Just handle with care: because the dye is in the glue layer, not the film itself, any trapped dust or over-rubbing may cause white spots if the glue is disturbed.
Best for:
Beginners or DIYers learning to tint
Practice installations (great for those who expect to make mistakes)
Budget-conscious projects (e.g., older vehicles)
Shops offering affordable tinting services

⚠️ Important Note for Installers:
This film uses glue-tinting, meaning the dye is in the adhesive layer — not the film itself. That’s what makes it more affordable, but it also means:
Dust particles may show as white spots.
Rubbing too hard during install can remove the dye.
Requires extra care during prep and installation.
A pro can still make it look perfect — but if you’re just starting out or prone to wasting film, this is the best film to learn with without breaking the bank.
