We’re a HITEK dealer and install two of its ceramic films: Ceramic IR and Ceramic Plus.
Short answer: 502 Tinted is a HITEK window film dealer in Louisville, Kentucky. We install two HITEK ceramic films: Ceramic IR, rated 65% total solar energy rejection and 75% infrared rejection, and Ceramic Plus, rated 69% and 90%. Both block real heat at the lighter shades, and both carry HITEK’s lifetime guarantee.
A tint job is only as good as the film and the person installing it. HITEK ceramic films go on clean and come with a lifetime guarantee that’s honored across the country, not just at one shop. That matters if you move, or if you’re stationed at Fort Knox and get orders.
We picked two HITEK films that block real heat even at lighter shades, which matters in Kentucky, where the front doors top out at 35%.

Both are ceramic, both carry HITEK’s lifetime guarantee, and both come in light to dark shades.

HITEK’s Ceramic Plus pageHITEK’s lifetime guarantee is honored nationwide, which means any authorized HITEK dealer can look at a warranty issue, not only the shop that installed it. Keep your paperwork; it lists the film, the shade and the install date.
The warranty covers the film. Damage from scratches, scraping the glass, or a window regulator that grinds the film is not a film defect. If something looks wrong in the first couple of weeks, bring it back and Shane will take a look.
