"I've brought my wife's Mustang and Civic in to get ceramic tint. Finally brought my Accord in after years of sitting in the sun with windows up. The tint was basically baked on the windows. and all I can say is Immaculate tinting done by Jose and his people. Came out perfect. Same as my last 2 vehicles."

"I cannot begin to express how happy I am with the service given by Albert over at MAB. He is extremely meticulous and makes sure your car will come out better than you ever expect. I’ve had him come a few times over the last month and all I can say is he goes above and beyond to give your car the love it needs to look showroom ready. Albert also did an amazing job ceramic coating my wheels and applying ceramic sealant on my car and it came out AMAZING! Got compliments on my car left and right from how beautiful and perfect the paint and interior looked. He also went the extra mile and drew patterns on my carpets to make it look very exotic. Hands down best mobile detailing service in the greater Los Angeles area."

California's strict car window tinting laws require front side windows to have at least 70% VLT (Visible Light Transmission), keeping them relatively clear. Back side and rear windows can have any darkness level. Windshield tint is limited to the top 4 inches. California prohibits red, amber, and blue tinting, and reflectivity cannot exceed standard window levels. Dual side mirrors are required with tinted back windows. Professional window tinting services ensure compliance while providing heat rejection for California's sunny climate.
