WE HAVE 14′ HIGH GARAGE DOORS<\/h3>\n

Midwest Tinting took our longest standing store in Independence, Missouri, conveniently located off I70 and 40HWY, and completely remodeled it. In 1975 we started with a small, two car garage. Now, we\u2019re standing tall with 5 bays, 14 foot garage doors, and 38 feet in length. We can accommodate semi\u2019s, tow trucks, RV\u2019s, boats, and other commercial vehicles inside our state of the art, air-conditioned facility. Our parking lot, garage space, and flexible scheduling make for an easy, in-and-out the door experience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

PROTECTING SEMI TRUCK DRIVERS<\/h2>\n

Studies show, higher cancer rates occur on the left side of the face and arm of commercial vehicle drivers. Truck drivers spend almost every day with their left side facing the sun. They\u2019re not just driving for a couple of hours a day like the average commuter \u2013 days on end are spent soaking up sunlight. This is your mobile office! Our window films will help provide comfort, reduce glare, and protect you from harmful UV rays. Even when exposure doesn\u2019t turn cancerous, UV rays can accelerate aging and wrinkles. The New England Journal of Medicine released a photograph of a retired truck driver with a condition known as unilateral dermatoheliosis<\/a>. The left side of the man\u2019s face was noticeably different from the right, with significant wrinkling, sagging and tissue damage. He had been a truck driver for 28 years. <\/p>\n

To keep drivers healthy, the Department of Transportation\u2019s (DOT) has amended safety regulations to allow certain clear UV blocking window tint and film on big rig windows. Our films are among the highest recommended lines of film because of the significant UV and infrared rejection rates they offer. Having window film on your vehicle is like wearing 1000 SPF.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Midwest Tinting is proud to offer a wide range of window tinting options, including clear, UV, and IR blocking tint, as mentioned by the IWFA. We urge any drivers that spend extended periods of time on the road, to install UV blocking window tint to reduce risk of skin cancer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
