Bluetooth is a wireless means for technological devices to communicate, and has become an assumed standard in many high-end devices; but when many people talk about Bluetooth they are referring almost exclusively to wireless headsets for phones. Of all the headsets on the market what makes Bluetooth ideal is that it is wireless, making it hands-free, and it works without pulling excessive power from the cellphone battery. The hands-free feature is perfect while driving, as many states are pushing to restrict the use of cellphones for drivers to those that utilize headsets or speakers. Many of these Bluetooth devices are discreet earpieces, but there is another level to the sophistication of this technology; Bluetooth can be integrated into the sound system of your car.
Customized integration of Bluetooth technology into your car makes use of the audio system, allowing calls to be heard via the car speakers. A microphone can be discreetly installed near the driver’s seat allowing for normal speech. This provides the hands-free talking ability ideal for maintaining safer driving while also illuminating the discomfort that even the best earpieces can cause.
With this type of integration music can be enjoyed without the worry of missing incoming calls. A well-designed system will provide a notification either by visual display or audio announcement. The music interrupts automatically by lowering the volume or muting altogether, allowing acceptance of the call without needless fumbling with dials. Once the call is complete the music resumes.
A Bluetooth-integrated audio system can centralize stereos, MP3 players, cellphones, and GPSs virtually eliminating the clutter that such devices can cause, and provide easy management while driving. Bluetooth is more than just a neat headset for your phone. Bluetooth integration can streamline your efficiency without compromising your safety.

If you are interested in getting your car, home or office windows tinted, the number of tint shops in your area may overwhelm you. How do you choose a shop that will provide a quality tint film and superior workmanship? We have compiled some helpful tips that will enable you to choose the shop that will give you the best product at a reasonable price.
Find out how long they have been business. You want to work with a business that is well established in the community. A shop that has been in existence for many years must be doing something right. Plus, you want to be sure that the shop will still be around should something go wrong with your tint in the future.
Be sure you are working with a trained and experienced team. It takes special skills and training to tint windows properly. This is not a job that you should attempt at home. Be sure that they are using the latest technology and techniques to install tint. For example, they should be skilled enough to tint “to the edge” on all roll up windows. A sloppy or unskilled job will only cause problems in the future. Your window tint should appear “factory direct” when installed correctly.
Ask friends and family for recommendations. One of the most effective ways to find a quality tint shop in your area is to ask friends and family for a recommendation. They can give you valuable insight into the customer service they received as well as their experience as a whole. Check with the Better Business Bureau and browse online reviews to see what kinds of complaints have been lodged against the company.
Check out samples of their work. Take time to visit the shop and ask to see samples of their work. There should be some vehicles they are working on or employee vehicles that you can inspect for workmanship. If you are unable to visit the shop, browse the online photo album they have on their website.
Find out what kinds of tint films they offer. You will want to work with a tint shop that offers a variety of tint film, from standard films to high-grade films. This allows you to choose the products that will give you the protection you desire while staying within your budget.
The shop should be familiar with state laws concerning window tint. Driving a vehicle with window tint that is too dark can result in a fine and will need to be removed. It is important that you work with a shop that understands the laws of your state and will not install tint that is too dark.
Ask about a guarantee or warranty. Before you agree to any work, learn more about what the shop will do if you are not satisfied with the work. Find a shop that will guarantee their work so you do not end up unhappy in the end.
Window tint makes a big difference in the overall appearance and comfort of your vehicle. Be sure that you are working with a quality tint shop so that you get the results and longevity you require. If you are in Greensboro, Winston Salem, High Point, Burlington and the surrounding areas of NC, come by DeDona Tint & Sound to learn more about our window tint services.

A car is a luxury that many of us take for granted. We get in ours everyday and drive to work, school, the store, and various other locations without even thinking twice.

So, to prevent such an unpleasant event from happening to you, secure your car with a state-of-the-art car alarm.
Most consumers (especially in today’s economy) can tell you that a car is a big investment. You put out a lot of money to have convenient transportation that takes you from point “A” to point “B.” Therefore, it only makes sense to secure this investment, just like you would any other. Car alarms are the quick and simple solution that could save you hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars.
In the event that your car is vandalized, burglarized, or even stolen, you are left with a daunting tab or a rising insurance premium. When you have already put so much money into the purchase of a vehicle, why would you risk shelling out large sums of money to repair or even replace your car, when you could have protected it all along?
The installation of car alarm by a trained professional is quick and painless and will pay for itself in the peace of mind it offers alone. Why wait another day? Have a car alarm installed today to protect what is rightfully yours!

Automotive window tint is one of the most popular car enhancements available today. DeDona Tint and Sound offers window tinting for all kinds of vehicles, including cars, SUVs, trucks, and RVs. Aside from aesthetic appeal, there are many reasons that vehicle owners choose to have automotive window tint professionally installed.
1. Reduce heat and avoid overheating. Heat build-up in your car is not only uncomfortable for you and your passengers, it can put a strain on your engine and air-conditioning system as well. Tinted windows help to minimize the accumulation of heat within a vehicle. In fact, some films on the market today offer an 85 to 95% heat rejection rate. That translates into a much cooler car, even on the hottest and most humid days.
2. Protect your vehicle’s interior. The UV rays of the sun can damage the interior of your car. Upholstery may fade after long-term exposure to the sun. Leather seats may crack and become brittle as well. Tinted windows block 99% of the sun’s harmful rays, protecting your car’s interior from pre-mature aging.
3. Protect your skin. Just like your car’s interior, your skin is susceptible to damage from the UVA and UVB rays that filter into your vehicle through the windows. Sun damage to your skin can lead to cancer. Window tinting can block those damaging rays and prevent you and your passengers from dangerous sun exposure.
4. Reduce glare. Tinted windows help reduce the glare of the sun during daytime driving and the glare of headlights at night. This reduction will allow drivers to have a clearer view of the road and ideally, be able to avoid deadly accidents.
5. Improve fuel-efficiency. Because tinted windows keep a car’s interior so much cooler, there is less strain put on the vehicle’s engine and air-conditioner. Drivers are able to save some money because they will not be wasting fuel by cooling down their car dramatically each time it has been sitting for long periods of time.
6. Protection during an accident. In the event of an accident, window tint can help shattered glass hold together, protecting you and your passengers from dangerous shards of glass that may result from an impact.
7. Improve security. Window tinting blocks a potential thief’s view of the valuables inside your vehicle. A criminal is less likely to break-in to a car unless he knows that there is something he wants. Darkened windows can deter thieves who attempt to “smash-and-grab” valuables from your vehicle.
8. Improves appearance. Tinted windows add a sophisticated style to any vehicle. Whether you prefer to make a bold statement or desire a subtler look, various shades of tint are available to fulfill all of your style requirements. However, drivers must follow local window tinting regulations and guidelines in order to avoid costly fines and tint removal.
Visit DeDona Tint and Sound in Greensboro, NC for expert installation of automotive window tint for all types of vehicles. With over 20 years of experience in the industry we have raised the standard for automotive tint in the Triad. Call us at (336) 851-1300 to schedule your appointment now!

Windows are one of the best features in a home. They allow sunlight to brighten the room and give you a view of the world outside. However, too much sunlight can heat up your home, fade your furniture and more. Window tint offers numerous benefits to homeowners that want to enjoy the world outside without dealing with the negative effects that the glaring sun can have on their home.
You may be familiar with window tinting for your car or truck. Take a look around and you will notice it on many vehicles. This same technology is used on homes as well. Many homeowners have discovered the advantages to window tinting. Listed here are six reasons that window tinting is a valuable addition to any home.
1. Protect your furniture. The sun’s UV rays can penetrate through your windows and into your home. Prolonged exposure to these rays can cause your furniture, rugs, carpet and upholstery to fade over time. Many homeowners spend their days with closed draperies to reduce this exposure. If fading is an issue for you, window tinting can help. Window tint blocks the damaging sunrays that can diminish the look of your furniture. With tinted windows, you can leave your draperies and blinds open knowing that your fine furniture and accessories will be okay.
2. Reduce glare. Have you ever tried to watch your favorite program only to have the sun’s glare make it almost impossible to see the screen? Those of us who spend time on a computer are familiar with this problem as well. Tinted windows block a significant amount of the sun’s glare so no matter where the sun is, you can watch TV, read a book, work on the computer or complete any task without the sun’s glare blocking your vision.
3. Reduce the sun’s damaging UV rays. It has been proven that prolonged exposure to the sun can cause skin cancer, as well as other health problems. We often do not think much about sun exposure when we are home. However, the sun’s damaging rays can penetrate a traditional window, exposing you and your family to possible skin damage. Window tint films can reduce this exposure by 90% or more. This simple addition can make a big difference in the health of your family.
4. Increase energy savings. Window tint acts as an insulator that keeps out heat in the summer and prevents heat loss in the winter. This can save homeowners substantial money on their heating and cooling bills.
5.Enhance privacy. Privacy film can be used to prevent others from peering into your windows, while still allowing you to have an unobstructed view outside. You are able to enjoy your privacy without having to keep your blinds closed all day.
6. Improve safety and security. Accidents happen and it is not uncommon for a window to get broken. When the glass breaks, it can shatter into many small pieces and spread glass all around. This can be extremely dangerous to anyone standing nearby. With some tint film, the glass fragments stay attached to the film. This reduces the chance of injury from flying glass and makes clean up much easier.
Tinting your home windows is a good way to add comfort, security and value to your home. This is not a do-it-yourself kind of job. Hire window tint experts in your area that are highly experienced and qualified at properly installing window tint for the home.
DeDona Tint and Sound provides expert window tinting for homes, businesses, and vehicles. Contact us to learn more about our professional tinting services. We serve Greensboro, High Point, Winston Salem, Burlington and the entire Piedmont Triad of NC.

Automotive protective films are highly effective at protecting your vehicle paint from stone chips, dents, scratches and environmental damage. These thin films provide a durable barrier between your paint finish and potentially damaging impacts. They can also be applied to headlights to protect them from cracks, chips, scratches and hazy build-up.
Protective films are applied to the impact zones of your vehicle. These areas include fenders, hood, side mirrors, grills, bumpers, roof, and more. The films are made of a heavy-duty thermoplastic urethane that needs to be professionally applied. This clear-coated urethane will not yellow over time. It is virtually invisible and allows your paint finish to shine through and permits the sun’s rays to pass through to the paint. This way, if you decide to remove the film, your vehicle will not be two-toned.
Paint protective films keep your paint looking great without altering the appearance of your vehicle. Keeping your vehicle paint in good condition may help you get a better price for your car when it comes time to sell. Protective films are an affordable way to keep your vehicle paint looking shiny and new for years to come. You can still wash and wax your vehicle as usual without damaging the film or detracting from the original appearance of the vehicle.
If you are interested in automotive protection films for your car, SUV, truck, motorcycle, semi-truck, or any other vehicle, contact DeDona Tint and Sound in Greensboro, NC. We install high quality films that are guaranteed to protect your vehicle from paint damage. Our shop is located at 5212 W. Market Street, just a short drive from Kernersville, High Point, Winston Salem, Reidsville and Burlington.

Window tint is an investment in your vehicle. When installed correctly, it offers a variety of benefits to the driver. Whether you own a car, truck, SUV, RV, or semi-truck, tinted windows will keep your ride comfortable all year long.
No matter what type of vehicle you drive, tinted windows can reduce glare and keep your vehicle cooler. In the event of an accident, window tint can help hold together shattered glass to protect the occupants of vehicle. Tinted windows can be a deterrent to potential thieves by preventing them from having a clear view into your car. Plus, tinting gives your vehicle a sleek, sophisticated appearance.
Installing window tint is not a do-it-yourself job. It requires highly skilled technicians who understand the best techniques for installing films. Vehicles must be disassembled as needed to access the glass. The glass must then be thoroughly cleaned before the tint is applied. Without the necessary training and experience, you could damage your glass and end up wasting time and money.
Unlike many other installers, DeDona Tint and Sound uses a technique that allows our trained installers to tint “to the edge” on all roll up windows. The window is covered in film to the edge or bevel, providing our customer with a finish that gives the appearance of being “factory direct”. Most back glass windows are tinted using one solid sheet of film, giving you a smooth gapless install that is virtually worry- free. This type of craftsmanship is unmatched in the area.
DeDona Tint and Sound expertly installs high-grade window tint in cars, trucks, SUVs, RVs, and semi-trucks. Contact us to schedule an appointment. We are located at 5212 W. Market Street in Greensboro—just a short drive from Burlington, High Point, Reidsville, Winston Salem, and the entire Piedmont Triad of NC.

As a truck driver, you probably spend a large part of your days and nights behind the wheel. While you can’t make the miles go by any faster, there are some ways that you can customize your semi-truck to make your ride more enjoyable. Custom audio solutions, navigation systems, Bluetooth integration, and window tinting can make your big rig driving experience more comfortable and entertaining.
Custom Audio Systems: With so much time spent in your truck and out on the road, your entertainment system is probably one of the most important aspects of your vehicle. Music an entertainment is essential for making those long miles go by a little easier. Much of the same technology and innovations that are used for passenger vehicles are available for semi-trucks as well. Now you can enjoy high quality sound no matter where you may travel.
Navigation Systems: When you are traveling from city to city, it can be difficult to find the best route. Traffic issues may require that you leave your current route and find a less crowded alternative. With a professionally installed navigation system, you can be sure that you will find the quickest way to your destination. Time is money when you drive a semi and getting lost simply is not an option. A navigation system allows you to stay on track and prevents costly detours or time wasted trying to find gas stations, restaurants, or other places of interest along the way.
Bluetooth Integration: Operating a huge semi is a big responsibility. Taking your hands off of the road for even an instant can have catastrophic results. This is one reason that Bluetooth integration makes sense for truckers. Bluetooth allows you use voice commands to make and receive phone calls as well as to operate your audio and navigation systems.
Window Tinting: You know the feeling of driving down the highway with the sun blaring through the window. The bright sun will not only make you feel hot and uncomfortable, it can obscure your vision as well. Impaired vision from sun glare is responsible for numerous auto accidents each year. Window tint actually reduces glare and makes driving more comfortable. A high quality film with a high heat rejection rate will keep your interior cooler, even during the hottest days of summer.
No matter what kind of customization you want for your truck, be sure to find a qualified specialist who is highly experienced at working on semis. Not everyone has the knowledge or training to properly equip big rigs. Find a company in your area that offers high quality products with excellent customer service.
Your truck is your livelihood and if you are not on the road, chances are, you are not making money. Therefore, you will need to find a window tinting and auto customization shop that will work quickly and efficiently so that you can enjoy your new features without a lot of downtime.
DeDona Tint and Sound offers a wide selection of customized audio solutions, navigation systems, and window tint for all types of cars and vehicles, including semi trucks and RVs.
