Window Tinting

The higher the percentage, the lighter the tint. I did 65% ceramic on my windshield and it’s barely noticeable. My wife’s car has 70% and it too is barely noticeable. A lot of people around where I live do 50% and that’s where you can really start tell.

 

ya, it really depends on the local laws and how far you want to push them. MY set-up is geared towards just barely going past the legal and not being even able to tell on the windshield, but still get all the heat reduction

one point for those who don't know, there is no difference in performance with these different light amounts we are all discussion, good ceramic is all like 99% plus UV block

 

One of the few benefits of being in California, cops don't care about tint, or anything really.

 

I did ceramic tint all around. 15% on the front two windows, 5%, or limo, on the rear and back window, and 50% on the windshield. Keeps it cooler in the Phoenix summers. Like my own little rolling cave.

 

That's where I'm at, just don't want legal attention. You have clarified something, I think. Ceramic has a bit of 'reflection' as opposed
to tint(darkening). So if I go with 50% ceramic on the front drivers / pass doors it would be same UV and heat reflection as 20% ceramic? But would let 30% more light in, so would be less likely to attract law enforcement. I'd say most of the guys here wouldn't
even notice 50% if it were on the side doors? Am I correct?

What else I wanted to ask, does clear ceramic reflect heat as effectively as darker?
I'm in Addison Tx today. Just landed. Be here a few days. Anyone recommend anyone here I can talk to?

 

Yes with ceramic you don’t have to go dark for UV blocking , so you can go light color or whatever if you want

and yes 50% won’t attract much attention, but you can check your local laws

can’t help with vendors down there but good luck

 

Been tinting my vehicles darker than legal here in AZ for years and haven’t had an issue with the popo yet. I like the darker tint because I don’t like feeling like I’m driving a fish bowl.

 

Here's a picture of the 20% front when not in the sunlight.

 

How’s the visibility during the night?

 

Tinting the moon/sun roof was the best thing ever. I was highly surprised at how much heat the ceramic tint blocks. So much that I'll be taking the wife's Lexus back in to get hers done as well.

 

100%, my pano roof ceramic works awesome , don’t even need the shade anymore , can enjoy the light without getting cooked or glared to
