DIY Tint Canada

Real prices, no gotchas

What does precut ceramic tint cost in Canada?

Ceramic film costs more than dyed film — you're paying for heat rejection and colour stability that dyed film can't match. Below is what our own precut kits run, and what a shop would charge you for the same work.

Short answer

Precut ceramic window tint in Canada costs $180–$390 CAD DIY vs. $350–$800 at a shop for the same-grade film on a full car. Free shipping over $99, ships from Canada.

What drives the price

  • Film chemistry

    Ceramic ($$$) > carbon ($$) > dyed ($). We only sell ceramic — the payoff on heat, UV, and colour stability is large.

  • Number of windows

    A sedan is 5 pieces. A crew-cab SUV can be 7+. More pieces, more film.

  • Rear-window complexity

    A curved rear window costs more to cut than flat glass — it's the trickiest piece to install and to computer-cut.

  • Shop labour

    A shop's biggest cost isn't film — it's the two hours their installer spends per car. Doing it yourself saves that.
