34 Miles Out to Sea, Nowhere to Hide from the Sun: Tint World® and XPEL Team Up to Protect Historic Frying Pan Shoals Tower

$XPELPress releaseSep 10, 2026, 8:30 AM ETRead the release

XPEL and installer-network partner Tint World completed a protective window film installation on Frying Pan Shoals Tower, a decommissioned U.S. Coast Guard light station 34 miles off the North Carolina coast that now operates as a nonprofit eco-tourism destination. The off-grid tower runs entirely on battery and generator power; the installed XPEL Dark Neutral 15% Window Film blocks a significant amount of solar heat and 99% of UV rays, reducing HVAC load and conserving the structure's limited power supply.
