Located in the heart of El Cajon, California, Cali Auto Glass & Tint has evolved from a trusted local glass repair shop into a state-of-the-art automotive restyling and protection facility. Our mission is simple: to provide San Diego drivers with the highest tier of craftsmanship, transparent pricing, and the most premium materials available in the industry today.
When you hand over your keys to Mike, Richard, and our team of master technicians, you are partnering with professionals who treat your vehicle with uncompromising respect. We understand that your car, truck, or SUV is more than just transportation; it is a major financial investment. That is why we have outfitted our newly expanded facility with advanced, climate-controlled bays. This ensures a flawless, dust-free environment for highly sensitive installations like Paint Protection Film (PPF), Ceramic Coatings, and high-end vehicle wraps.
Unlike high-volume shops that cut corners to turn cars over quickly, we rely on absolute precision. From utilizing state-of-the-art computer-cut plotters for our 3M window tint—meaning a razor blade never comes close to your factory glass or weather stripping—to using premium OEM-equivalent urethane for every single windshield replacement, we do it right the first time.
We proudly stand behind our work with comprehensive Lifetime Warranties against leaks, bubbling, and peeling. Whether you are driving in from La Mesa, Lakeside or Santee, or relaxing in our comfortable customer lounge with a coffee while we work on your vehicle in-house, you will experience the gold standard of customer service from the moment you request a quote.
Protect your investment and enhance your driving experience with our industry-leading materials and master technicians.
Beat the Southern California sun with computer-cut window tint. As an authorized 3M™ dealer we install House Brand, Geo Shield and 3M™ films that cut heat, glare and UV, backed by a lifetime warranty against bubbling, fading or peeling. Two windows start at $99.
Windshield replacement, chip repair and side window replacement with OEM-quality glass and in-shop ADAS camera calibration. Every job is done in our El Cajon shop for a proper seal, and most windshields are done the same day.
Transform your vehicle’s aesthetic with full color change vinyl wraps and custom chrome deletes. To protect your factory paint from highway rock chips and road debris, we install 8-mil thick, self-healing Paint Protection Film (PPF) as a durable, invisible shield.
Our professional-grade Ceramic Coating forms a permanent, liquid-quartz bond with your vehicle’s clear coat. This hydrophobic nano-ceramic technology makes water and dirt slide right off, locking in a deep, wet-looking gloss that lasts for years while protecting against UV oxidation.
Rejuvenate your vehicle to showroom condition. Our comprehensive auto detailing goes far beyond a standard car wash, utilizing clay bar decontamination for the exterior and deep-extraction cleaning for the interior to remove stains, odors, and allergens.
Prevent costly OEM replacements with our impact-resistant Windshield Protection Film. Functioning like a heavy-duty screen protector for your car, this optically clear layer absorbs the kinetic energy of flying rocks, drastically reducing the chances of pitting or cracking on the highway.
