Automotive Styling & Seamless Protection in North Hollywood
Expert protection for every vehicle. From liquid-applied seamless armor to premium ceramic tinting—North Hollywood’s trusted automotive styling specialists.
Advanced Liquid-Applied Protection & Traditional PPF
At Autograff Tint, we offer both traditional paint protection film (PPF) and cutting-edge liquid-applied protection systems. Our Clean Room installation environment ensures zero-defect film application, protecting your vehicle’s finish from road debris, stone chips, and environmental contaminants.
Traditional thermoplastic urethane (TPU) PPF remains the gold standard for flat and curved surfaces, providing reliable protection with a clear, self-healing finish. However, for complex exotic geometries—bumpers, grilles, and intricate body lines—our advanced liquid-applied protection delivers 100% coverage without visible seams or edges. This seamless armor approach eliminates dirt traps and maintains superior gloss levels that showcase your vehicle’s true paintwork.
We specialize in customized protection packages tailored to premium vehicles. Whether you drive a Tesla Model Y, Model 3, or luxury European marques like BMW, Mercedes, and Porsche, our expert technicians develop bespoke solutions that maximize protection while preserving the aesthetic integrity of your investment. Full front-end packages, ceramic-coated PPF combinations, and complete vehicle wraps are available for drivers who demand nothing but the best.
- ✓ Clean Room installation for zero-defect film application
- ✓ Seamless liquid-applied protection—no visible edges or dirt traps
- ✓ Specialized packages for Tesla, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, and more
- ✓ Self-healing TPU with superior gloss and hydrophobic properties
High-Performance Ceramic Tint & Infrared Heat Rejection
The San Fernando Valley heat is relentless, and factory window tint doesn’t cut it. Our premium ceramic window films are engineered to reject up to 98% of infrared radiation—the primary culprit behind interior heat buildup—while blocking 99% of harmful UV rays that fade interiors and damage skin.
Unlike dyed or hybrid films, ceramic technology uses nano-ceramic particles that absorb and dissipate heat without the reflective appearance or signal interference. This means superior heat rejection, crystal-clear visibility, and full compatibility with GPS, cellular, and satellite radio systems. Our precision computer-cut patterns ensure a perfect fit on all glass surfaces, including curved windshields and complex rear quarter panels.
Every ceramic tint installation comes backed by our lifetime warranty against bubbling, peeling, or color change. We stand behind our craftsmanship because we use only the highest-grade films and employ meticulous application techniques. Whether you need 35% tint for maximum cooling or a lighter 50% for legal windshield compliance, we deliver consistent, bubble-free results that enhance both comfort and aesthetics.
- ✓ Up to 98% infrared heat rejection for interior cooling
- ✓ 99% UV rejection—protects skin and fades interior surfaces
- ✓ No reflective haze—crystal-clear visibility and GPS compatibility
- ✓ Lifetime warranty against bubbling, peeling, or discoloration
9H Ceramic Coating & Paint Correction
A flawless ceramic coating starts with flawless paint. Our multi-stage machine polishing process removes swirl marks, holographic scratches, oxidation, and water-spot etching—revealing the true depth and clarity of your vehicle’s original finish. This preparation is crucial; applying ceramic coating over damaged paint only magnifies imperfections.
Once your paint is properly prepped, we apply professional-grade 9H ceramic coating. The "9H" designation refers to the pencil hardness rating—the highest level on the testing scale. Our coatings provide exceptional resistance to light scratches, etching from bird droppings and tree sap, and UV degradation. The hydrophobic properties make washing effortless: water beads and rolls off, carrying away dirt and contaminants without water spotting.
We offer tiered protection options to match your maintenance commitment and budget. Our 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year packages increase in coating thickness and durability, with the premium 10-year option designed for show-quality finishes and maximum longevity. Optional wheel and caliper coating add-ons extend this protective armor to brake components, ensuring total exterior defense. Proper maintenance using pH-neutral soaps and two-bucket wash methods preserves the coating’s hydrophobic properties for years to come.
- ✓ Multi-stage machine polishing removes swirl marks and oxidation
- ✓ 9H pencil hardness—exceptional scratch and etching resistance
- ✓ Hydrophobic finish makes cleaning effortless, water-spot free
- ✓ 2-year, 5-year, and 10-year packages with optional wheel coatings

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
1What is liquid PPF and how does it differ from traditional film?
Liquid PPF (paint protection film) is spray-applied protection that creates a seamless, 100% coverage barrier on your vehicle’s exterior. Unlike traditional thermoplastic urethane (TPU) films that require precise cutting and application around curves, liquid PPF flows and cures smoothly over complex geometries like bumpers, grilles, and door handles without any visible seams or edges. This makes it ideal for intricate contours where traditional film would struggle, providing superior gloss retention and eliminating the dirt traps that can form at film edges.
2How long does a professional ceramic coating last?
The lifespan of our ceramic coatings depends on which package you choose. Our 2-year coating provides solid protection and is perfect for those who like to refresh their vehicle’s finish periodically. The 5-year package offers extended durability for most drivers, while our premium 10-year coating is designed for show-quality finishes and provides maximum longevity. Regardless of which option you select, proper maintenance—including regular pH-neutral washes and avoiding harsh chemicals—will maximize the coating’s protective life.
3What is the best window tint for maximum heat rejection in North Hollywood?
Ceramic window tint is unquestionably the best choice for maximizing heat rejection in the San Fernando Valley. Our premium ceramic films block up to 98% of infrared radiation—the primary source of interior heat buildup—while rejecting 99% of harmful UV rays. Unlike dyed or hybrid films, ceramic technology uses nano-ceramic particles that don’t degrade over time and won’t interfere with GPS, cellular, or satellite radio signals. For North Hollywood’s intense summer sun, ceramic tint is the gold standard for keeping your interior cool and comfortable.
4Can I get my windows tinted on a Sunday?
Yes, we understand that busy professionals need flexible scheduling. Our North Hollywood facility is open until 9:00 PM on Sundays, giving you plenty of time to stop by for tinting services without disrupting your weekend. We recommend calling ahead at (747) 777-1000 to confirm availability and schedule your appointment, ensuring we’re fully staffed and ready to deliver the premium service Autograff Tint is known for.
5Does ceramic coating remove scratches?
No, ceramic coating does not remove scratches—it prevents new ones and protects against future damage. If your vehicle has existing scratches, swirl marks, or oxidation, those must be removed first through our multi-stage machine polishing process during paint correction. Once your finish is perfectly smooth and clear, we then apply the ceramic coating to seal and protect it. This preparation step is crucial because applying ceramic coating over damaged paint would only magnify imperfections and waste the protective benefits of the coating.
6How much does it cost to tint a Tesla in North Hollywood?
Tesla window tinting costs depend on the film type you select and your specific protection needs. Our ceramic tint packages typically start at competitive rates that reflect the precision and quality of our work. Because Tesla models have unique window shapes and proportions, we use precision computer-cut patterns to ensure a perfect fit. For an accurate quote tailored to your specific Tesla model and film preference, we recommend contacting us directly at (747) 777-1000 or visiting our facility in North Hollywood for a free consultation.
7What is 9H ceramic coating?
9H ceramic coating refers to the pencil hardness rating on the Mohs scale, which measures a coating’s resistance to scratches and abrasion. A 9H rating means the coating can withstand light scratches and provides exceptional protection against environmental hazards like bird droppings, tree sap, and road salt. Our professional-grade 9H coatings create a hydrophobic barrier that makes washing effortless—water beads and rolls off, carrying away dirt and contaminants. This combination of hardness and hydrophobic properties delivers long-term defense for your vehicle’s paint.
8How do I clean my car after a ceramic coating?
Proper maintenance preserves your ceramic coating’s protective properties and hydrophobic finish. Always use pH-neutral car wash soaps rather than harsh dish detergents, which can strip the coating. Employ the two-bucket wash method: one bucket with soapy water for cleaning and a separate rinse bucket to prevent dirt from transferring back onto your paint. Avoid automatic car washes with abrasive brushes and acidic tire cleaners. After washing, a final rinse with distilled water prevents water spots. With this simple care routine, your ceramic coating will maintain its gloss and protection for years.
