At Sun Stoppers, we install XPEL TRUE-BLACK window film to give your vehicle a sleek, dark finish that blocks out prying eyes.

WINDOW TINT SHADES WE OFFER FOR HEMBY BRIDGE

Window tint shades are measured using VLT (Visible Light Transmission), which tells you how much light passes through the film. A lower VLT number means a darker shade. We offer a full selection of tint shades that stay within North Carolina’s legal requirements.

A lot of window films claim to reject heat and look great. Very few actually do both. XPEL window films pair real protection with the clean, upgraded look your car deserves.

CERAMIC PARTICLE TECHNOLOGY

XPEL PRIME XR & XR Plus feature advanced ceramic particles that filter the sun's infrared radiation. They outlast and outperform traditional metallized or dyed films in both durability and heat rejection.

SUPERIOR HEAT REJECTION

The ceramic particle technology in our films blocks the majority of the sun's heat-causing infrared energy, keeping your cabin cooler and putting less demand on your air conditioning.

CRYSTAL CLEAR SIGNAL

Unlike older metallized films, our nano-ceramic technology will not disrupt your radio, cellular, or Bluetooth signals. Your connectivity stays strong regardless of the shade you choose.

UV RAY PROTECTION

Beyond heat rejection, the ceramic particles in our films block harmful UV radiation, giving your skin and your car's interior stronger protection than standard metallized or dyed window films.

XPEL Prime XR

Crafted with nano-ceramic construction, PRIME XR Ceramic Film delivers crystal-clear clarity and a clean finish that holds up for years while rejecting up to 88% of infrared heat.

XPEL Prime XR Plus

Driven by multi-layer nanoparticle technology, PRIME XR PLUS automotive window tint combines a bold, dark appearance with the highest level of heat rejection on the market.

XPEL Prime CS

If top-tier heat rejection is not your priority, XPEL PRIME CS is a solid choice. It still blocks 99% of harmful UV rays and delivers color-stable, glare-reducing performance that will not fade, crack, peel, or turn purple over time.

Robert Harris

“Just had another vehicle of mine done here. Process was quick and easy. I dropped of my truck and got a call roughly an hour later that the job was completed. My only dislike is the prices, there are less expensive alternatives out there but ultimately I chose them for my convenience. Still overall satisfied with my choice to use Sunray Tint. Thank you for the fast service and the “cooler” truck!!”

Thomas Bejimi

“Wow! In and out in less than an hour for the front 2 windows. Prices are fair, and staff is extremely helpful. They give you a detailed description on what you’re paying for before you make a decision. It makes sense onto why this shop is so highly rated.”

Zak Martinez

“I’ve gotten two vehicles tinted here and both times, things went fantastically. The staff is always professional and helpful, service is done quickly, and (most importantly) the tint looks great! I also got two other quotes for the same services at other tint shops and Sun Stoppers was $100 less. Highly recommend this business for all tint or ceramic paint protection needs”

Jose Seixas

“Had a great experience here. Called on a Thursday afternoon with some questions, and less than 24h later, my mini van had tinted windows. They were very clear in explaining the different options and tint %. No upsell to the most expensive material and they got the job done in less than two hours. The waiting area has great internet, free drinks and comfortable chairs. Price is fair as well”

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT WINDOW TINTING

How much of a light gap is normal after a tint installation?

With a quality installation, there should be almost no visible light gap when your windows are rolled down. Our technicians at Sun Stoppers are trained to achieve zero light gap on every job, even on frameless door styles.

Does window tint help reduce fuel or energy costs?

Window tint does not directly improve gas mileage, but it keeps your cabin cooler so you do not need to blast the AC as much. Over time, that lighter AC use can make a noticeable difference in fuel efficiency. For EV owners, especially Tesla drivers, it also helps preserve battery life and extend driving range.

How dark can I legally tint my windows in North Carolina?

NC tint laws set different VLT limits based on window position and vehicle type. Front side windows need to allow at least 35% of light through, while rear and back windows can be tinted darker. We make sure every installation meets North Carolina’s legal standards so you stay compliant on the road.

If you have spent any time in Hemby Bridge between May and September, you already know what the sun can do to a parked car. It only takes a few minutes for your steering wheel to become untouchable and your seats to feel like they have been sitting under a heat lamp. That kind of heat does more than make you uncomfortable. It fades your dashboard, cracks your leather, and puts extra strain on your AC every time you start the engine.

That is exactly why so many drivers in the Hemby Bridge area turn to Sun Stoppers for professional window tinting.

Here is what window tint does for your vehicle:

  • Keeps your cabin cooler, even when your car sits in the sun all day
  • Blocks UV rays that cause skin damage and interior fading
  • Reduces glare so you can focus on the road without squinting
  • Adds privacy and helps keep your belongings out of sight
  • Gives your vehicle a sharper, more polished appearance

Hemby Bridge is a small town in Union County, North Carolina, with a population of around 1,600 residents. It sits just about five miles from Matthews and roughly 13 miles southeast of Charlotte. The town got its name from a bridge that once crossed the north fork of Crooked Creek, built by Dawson Hemby back in the 1840s. The Hemby family owned close to 1,000 acres in the area and operated a corn mill near the bridge site. That quiet, rural character still defines the community today.

Despite its small size, Hemby Bridge is well connected. Residents have easy access to I-485 and the Highway 74 bypass, which means Charlotte, Indian Trail, Matthews, and Stallings are all a short drive away. Popular local spots include The Bridge Restaurant on Indian Trail Fairview Road, Sweet Union Brewing Company, and the nearby Lake Park area for a relaxing afternoon outdoors.

If you live in or around Hemby Bridge and want to protect your car from the North Carolina sun, give us a call at Sun Stoppers. We serve Hemby Bridge through our Matthews location and cover zip code 28079 and all surrounding areas. Contact us today for a free estimate. We look forward to hearing from you.
