What our customers think

I've never had such an amazing experience before a friend recommended Cen Cal Tinting. I'm used to tinting professionals rushing me and making me feel like I'm an inconvenience. Everyone at Cen Cal Tinting is extremely nice and professional and made me feel like they were happy to be helping me. They obviously care about what they do and their customers and it shows. They do excellent work. I'm beyond impressed with all the tinting and ceramic coating they did. If you have tinting, wrapping or paint protection needs you should request a quote.

James was great from end to end, and Daniel was extremely helpful on everything related to tinting. Very prompt responses, answered all my questions and went above and beyond to ensure I had the best experience. Products are of amazing quality (they have several displays and did a few demos to show it off), and the service was A+. I went with the full front PPF (clear bra), ceramic coating, ceramic tinted the windows + protective/heat film on the windshield. The car looks even better now, and will do so for longer. Highly recommended!

I've had 6 prior vehicles tinted from a different vendor in the past, all which came out great, but wanted to try somewhere else due to scheduling availability and the ability to offer different services (ceramic coating & wraps). This search led me to Cen Cal Tinting in Clovis. I was able to text up front to get all my questions answered and was able to schedule an appointment a couple of days out (on a Sunday!!). Super great customer service, friendly staff, great location, amazing availability and the quality is top of the line! Will be back - they've earned all my future business!

It depends entirely on which windows have 5% tint. If it's your rear side windows and rear windshield, you're completely legal, even in Fresno, and have nothing to worry about.
If your front side windows have 5% tint, yes, you can absolutely be pulled over. Front windows must allow 70% light transmission, making 5% up front one of the most obvious violations an officer will spot. Fresno law enforcement and CHP officers carry tint meters and can measure your VLT on the spot during any traffic stop.
We measure with a meter before you leave, so whatever we fit up front is compliant. See the legal shades on our window tinting in Fresno page.
We specialize in window tinting, paint protection film, ceramic coating, paint correction and vehicle wraps.

Yes, we recommend giving your car a basic exterior wash before your appointment. This helps us avoid rubbing dry dirt or dust into the paint when working on your vehicle, which can cause scratching.
It also makes it easier for us to get great photos of your car when it's all done. You can see recent ones in our portfolio.

California does have rules covering headlight and taillight tinting. Headlights must emit white or yellow light and taillights must show red, so anything that changes the color or cuts the output too far is a problem.
The films we install are classified as protection films with a slight shade rather than a color-changing tint, which is what keeps them legal in California.
How far you go still matters. A light or medium shade changes the look with only a modest reduction in output, while very dark films noticeably cut brightness on unlit roads. We'll talk through how you drive and recommend a shade that keeps the lights usable at night. See the four tones we carry on our headlight and taillight tinting page.
Wait a full seven days after the application before washing your car. That gives the film time to fully cure and bond to the paint.
After that you can wash normally with a pH-neutral soap. Avoid abrasive brushes, harsh chemicals and automatic car washes, which are hard on the edges of the film.
The packages and coverage options are on our paint protection film in Fresno page.
No, it's best to avoid automated car washes if you have a ceramic-coated vehicle. Automated car washes use recycled water and low-quality brushes that can rub dirt and grit along the ceramic coating, damaging it.
Stick to hand washing with a pH-neutral soap, and dry with a blower rather than a towel. Our packages and the yearly maintenance check are explained on our ceramic coating in Fresno page.
