My car is a Starfire Pearl. But what is Ceramic Tint? Is it a specific color or brand?

I've got that setup, pm me your email because I'm not near a computer. I can snap a picture with my iphone and send it to you. My tint's 35% all around.

They look the same. But the film is more durable to scratches from lowering the windows. Probably blocks more UV rays. I've been using ceramic tint for about a year, it still doesn't show any scratch.
