Car window tinting in Bray
Bray is a straight run south on the M11 — under an hour, and no city traffic at either end of it.
Bray drivers usually weigh up going into Dublin or coming south to us. South is the easier drive: the M11 the whole way, no tolls on the route, no city parking at the end of it, and the car goes straight into a workshop bay rather than a queue.
Bray runs a lot of seafront and Dublin-commuter mileage, which is the worst combination for glare — sun off the Irish Sea in the morning and low sun on the way home. Heat-rejecting film on the front sides, kept inside the legal limit, is the change commuters here notice first.
If the car is a family car doing Bray-to-Dublin runs with kids in the back, the usual spec is a legal front pair plus a darker rear set — cooler back seats and no glare in car seats.
