5% looks good on a sunny day but you can’t see shit at night. I’ve personally found 15% to be a much better balance of privacy and visibility.
busa89 good news since I'm getting my car done in 15 in a few days
s Smit just don't get tickets left and right!
Privacy? What are you doing that required no one see you?
broderp picking his nose 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@broderp you like people staring inside your car?
It's insane how bright it appears on the inside compared to the outside
thats his camera auto adjusting the exposure. i thought that too lmao
Bruno Mars tinting windows now.
haha yes!
Window Tinting Business I went with 15% all around except windshield (5% windshield strip) on my f150. Its just right for me because from the outside you can barely see inside and its still visable at night when driving.
chrisdsltech give your give me your window tint baby let me tint you up.
When you're 24K that's what you gotta do :)
chrisdsltech ?
The 30 looks very dark. Why didn't you do this outside under the sun? That would have been a much better real world look at the tint.
he's not a professional
J Cut LMFAOOOOOOO
Yeah I know. My 20 tint looks darker than the 15....
yea is there a reason why 30 looks so dark?? Been looking at tint and some are darker than others is there a reason why or type of tint it is??
broderp I got 30% all around for my car and my friends always say it looks like I didn’t even tint them.
Cool video, I have 15 on all my vehicles but thinking about 5% for my next Explorer... one thing I’ll suggest is doing the same video except in outdoor and sunny conditions.. if people haven’t had tint before I think many would be surprised at how much more light and transparent the windows are outside during the day... with this video 30% actually looks pretty dark but 30% basically has zero privacy during the day..
30% has enough privacy to allow you to pick your nose without having people three cars away pointing giggle.
What are you doing in your car that needs 5% tint?
It doesn't matter, it's my car. Is the response.
Yep, and you're a magnet for the police to pull over and unholster as the approach a dark tinted vehicle
???? Are we out here gate keeping car tint layers? Really man?
@@saintpetersburg5818cry more
Yeah, I just got 15% all around, and 50% on the windshield (all XPEL Ceramic) yesterday and I've been kind of disappointed bc it's not nearly as dark as I was expecting. Definitely going to have to go down to 5% and 35% shield next time. Shame tho, going to stick with this for a while since it was $650
I put 5% all around before our family trip from New York to Florida. We drove the first 500 miles at night then the rest during the day. We ended up back in New York because my wife couldn’t see the freakin road signs.
🤣 🤣 🤣
Lol
That means your wife is blind as a f****** bat
Your wife suck and shouldn't drive lmfaoo. Jk but really lmfaoo
Bro I’m dead 😂😂😂😂
I got 5% tints on my windows and now all I see out my side windows is a reflection of the interior of the car. Not good
it ain’t that bad
You probably put the tint on the wrong way.
What did you think was gonna happen homie 😂😂
😭😭🤣
You literally installed a mirror on your windows lol.
30% all day for me. I had 5% and was pulled over by cops and searched on the reg. As an adult in their 40's it gets really old really fast. A little bit of tint vs a lot of tint goes a long ways.
And if you ever get pulled over for another reason you will get an illegal tint ticket on top of the original one.
Yup just actually got 30% on my wrangler and its darker then I expected. Looks good.
squid
Getting my VW tinted today. Same boat, mid 40's and not looking to draw that attention. Dude you just talked some sense into me, lol, now going to do 30% instead of 20%.
I mix. 50 front windshield. 15 sides/doors. 30 back windshield. Works perfectly. Might drop to 15 on back windshield.. might be too dark at night.
One thing everyone forgets to mention is privacy inside the vehicle is increased when covering ALL windows with tint. If you leave say just the front windshield at stock then it’s way easier to see inside the car even from the other tinted windows, whereas if the front is also tinted then it’s much more difficult to see in even with only 15 or 30% tints
Its very hard to do this comparison with a gopro/cellphone style camera because they often dont allow for manual shutter, ISO and aperture, The camera automatically adjust with the lower light levels making it look as if the same/similar amount of light is being let in. You do a great job of working around this problem by having the driver side window, and the un tinted windshield in the same frame, and with the 5% tint you can see the camera struggling to set exposure for both the 5% and the 100%
this
I’m gonna skip all the windows and just throw 5% down the front windshield. 😎
Am I blind or it all looks the same? Why wasn't this done outside?
I think he's using automatic exposure on his camera, which will always normalize for a certain level of luminosity on the sensor. It will make anything darker "appear" lighter, so it always looks around the same. You'd need manual exposure to really see the differences.
Liked the video but you made one critical mistake.
You had the camera set to Automatic, so it adjusted the aperture to compensate for the light changes. As you watch the 5% demo it is clearly demonstrated that the camera is keeping the final video at the same brightness. I wish you would do this over with the camera in full manual mode so that we can actually see how dark it really is.
I have a 5% tint in the back of my car, its pretty damn dark, barely drivable in the night and its only on the back.
yeah I tried to compensate for that by showing the difference in light between the nontinted front windshield and the tinted door window. I did try and just set the light adjustment but when I get in the car with 5% you literally couldn't see me, its not that dark in real life so I figured the auto light adjust was the best route for the video.
@@WindowTintingBusiness I just saw this video, I'm VERY thankful for the tint comparison as I'm getting ready to get my front windows tinted. I unfortunately just tried to do a 30% and it failed due to my lack of experience, none the less this is a great comparison but I think for you to get the best effect possible so people can see a side by side comparison you may want to tint one window with all 3 tints then the camera won't be able to compensate for all of them.
You'd have to do it on a vehicle obviously so that you can show the inside and outside view, none the less I am thankful for the comparison.
Thanks Patrick. Great to see amazing people with great talent in our industry sharing their knowledge and experience for others to enjoy and learn from. #Winning

Just go 5% back .....15% front 2 windows....5% up at the windshield strip 👍 .....like my car 😏
how much did that cost for you to do if u don't mind?

@@egokilla1063 yes that will be ok.. keep in mind I have always driven tinted cars ....
@@user-xl4pb5wo1g I think I'm gonna go 15 on front 2 windows then 5 on back 2 and 5 on rear glass thanks man!
I love 5% I have it on my black Altima coupe it’s not hard to see at night unless I’m doing a turn I just simply roll the window down.
It would have been better to view in natural light
My 30 does not look that dark outdoors
This was extremely helpful since I’m about to get my windows tinted
I agree I had 15% and it was dark enough. In the city where you have plenty of street lights you might be able to see at night without rolling down the windows, But in the country ain't no street lights. I had to roll down my windows to see. So I say yes to 15% its plenty dark. Can't imagine trying to drive at night with 5%. Also I was never stopped for my tint, in South Carolina.
From South Carolina also getting tinted 15% at the moment ,good to know that sc doesn’t really pester you about tint
My first car was a 2000 Camry with what i was told was 5% tints... needless to say, shit was done inside that horse 😂😂
😂😂
shit man back in 2004 dude I was 20 and my gf at the time had a 1998 Camry. No tints, but shit was definitely done inside that horse! Camry's are great sex cars.
This makes me think about when I bought 5% from a auto store not knowing what I was doing😩my friend put it on and OMG😂It was soooo DARK!!!!! You couldn’t see a thing💯😂
5% on all the back and 15 on the front two windows with window strip on the shield for me. It damn near makes the front two look 5% from the outside but can still see mirrors.
T AN how’s driving at night?
Mines like that
@@jomanky9523 I gotta roll the windows down when turning into neighborhoods at night

I am thinking ceramic tint 70 windshield, 35 front two windows, 25-30 back two windows and back windshield. It's not about privacy, it's about heat reduction.
Do 35% all around (classy look) and 70 windshield. It won’t give you privacy but it will do the job with keeping heat out
it’s ridiculously hard to find this exact video anywhere else on the internet. thank you for this! so helpful.
i will cut thru all the BS
-ceramic is the highest performing tint available now BUT needs specialized experience to install (not like other tints)
-many shops dont have the skill level to install ceramic CORRECTLY
-so i recently had Huper Optik's Xtreme Optiks installed on new car...only 15 percentage points less infrared (IR) blockage (aka heat rejection) than ceramic...all other specs like UV, etc are similar if not the same
-15 pct points is not that big enough diff to pay 200 bucks MORE for ceramic (but moreso, someone inexperienced might be the installer)
-paid around $300 for a 4door sedan. 35% on all 4 doors and 20% on back window (looks clean; cant tell diff % tint)
- huper optiks is the best tint imo. german company; do your own research
-get your tint at a company that will stay in biz...your install warranty is nothing if they go bankrupt n shutdown
-fyi, privacy glass from factory often does not block heat or IR, UV, etc
Yea bro they all look dark inside ur shop. go outside where there is light. common sense bro......
Thats what im saying. He might as well have showed it off at night
How easy is it to see in rear view and side mirrors at night when diving especially backing up with 5% ? What darkest percentage would you recommend to still safely backup.
Thanks for the s/o ! We greatly appreciate it and keep up the great work with everything. Look forward to linking up in the future. #Winning
If your tinting yourself go 5% all the way around but driver side 20% 👌🏽!
Love this RUclips channel, you guys have come a long way since you all started this channel!
Thank you so much. I really appreciate the kind works ❤️
30% is not that dark so don’t be fooled. I have 30% and you can see right through it
Yes I feel like it’s totally pointless. I have 35% as well :(
Did you go with ceramic? I have IRX 30 all around on my car and if the sky is any kind of bright you might just barely be able to see in. Shop even checked it after install and it hit 30%
Can you see good at night? I'm thinking about getting 30% on front 2 windows
Robert F bro you can see straight through it 😂 it’s not dark at all even in the night time
Anna Anna Momanna, Bobanna I got 2% tint now. I layered a 5% over my original 30%. It’s dark asf to the point where I roll my windows down when turning in the night time
Just got 15% in the front and while it looks nice I’m not happy with the visibility. I don’t think it’s worth keeping and also getting harassed by cops about it. I regret my decision and I’m asking the shop to replace it with 35% so that I can see at night. Seems dangerous to me but not everyone has the same vision.
yes the vision aspect is definitely a relative term. Plus different states allow different darkness's as well.
That's crazy. I just got 15% all around, and 50% on the windshield (all XPEL Ceramic) yesterday and I've been kind of disappointed bc it's not nearly as dark as I was expecting. You can see in easily from the outside both during day and night, and the visibility at both day and night is perfectly fine, as if there's not even tint there. The sides you can barely notice a tiny change in brightness but on backroads with no streetlights, I can still see perfectly. Definitely going to have to go down to 5% and 35% shield next time. Shame tho, going to stick with this for a while since it was $650
Here's another video showing what 15% Window tint looks like from the inside. ruclips.net/user/shortskAgAOo3LuV4
Since my vision is horrible! I’m gone get 15 on my doors. 20 on back windshield & 20 visor strip in the front.
great video to let people know how the tint looks from the inside. keep up the great work.
I have 5% on one of my vehicles all around... night visibility is poor, have to roll the windows down. On my new vehicle going 15% on the front two windows and 5 on the rear.
15% is good at night. I have 20% in the front and 15% on the back and I can see when I back up. 5% is hard to see at night.
Most states permit 35%
15% or 5% is usually limo passengers.
On a standard passenger vehicle 15% or 5% are referred to as "get shot" tint.
That's because an officer walking up to a heavily tinted window is more likely to snap the holster or tilt release their sidearm for quick draw access.
If a cop can't see into your vehicle as he approaches he has no idea what's behind the glass waiting for him
That is why you will find the cop with his hand on his holster ready for a quick draw.
this is why you roll down all your windows when a cop comes up to your car
If you want privacy go 20 , 15 or 5 percent tints anything else is too light, u gonna be able to see straight threw. The 30% in this video only looks dark because he’s inside a garage
Foreall dawg
Good shiit
Which is more darker 5,% or 30% I am confused secondly it should be in the sun so we can figure it out but very nice video
The percentages represent the amount of light it lets in, so the lower the number the darker the film is. I’m working on a follow up video to this video to have better comparisons
I WENT 5 PERCENT CERAMIC ON MY BACK 5 WINDOWS AND CLEAR AIR TINT DRIVER AND PASS DOORS AND FULL WINDSHEILD AND LEGAL IN CALI.
after watching this, I think my ute has 15% on everything behind the driver(legally can only go 35% on front doors)
But you still have to stick your face up to the rear doors and canopy to see whats inside
i had 5% on my rav4 . It was really nice tint . It kept sun and heat out of the cabin and no way in hell someone could see through it and it also looked very sleek! The bad thing about it is you can say bye bye to your mirrors at night its a pain trying to use them because of the tint. I still recomend the 5%
Sma 556 I would think less people would get hit if more people had tint. When the sun sets the glare is bad.
Seems rather silly to be concerned over looking "cool" over being safe. Recommending 5% is not a good idea.
a rav4 is not "sleek". A 90 Mustang Fox Body, is sleek and aggressive.
Thank you
It’s clear from many angles. Good review
From the inside, that 30% is barely noticeable. Being in a sunny state of AZ, higher than 20% VLT is ineffective at reducing glare and heat inside.
I’m in Arizona and just bought a new car and thinking about 5%. Just deciding if I’ll be a cop magnet, but I’ve heard cops don’t pester you about tint too much in arizona
I have 30% tint on my Challenger. It's dark enough that other drivers can only see my figure but not any of my facial features. Another advantage is you can see out at night and another advantage is cops won't annoy you about it. My roommate has 15% on his Jeep and you really can't see shit at night.
can you tell the difference on any % from ceramic versions
and basic
I have 30% tint on my Honda and I did 15% on the back. You can see straight through 30%. Looks great at night, but during the day total visibility. Drives me NUTS. Getting a re-tint of front side two.
Did you go with ceramic? I have IRX 30 all around on my car and if the sky is any kind of bright you might just barely be able to see in. Shop even checked it after install and it metered 30%
Why you care so much who sees you? Lol
Hey mate what kind of tint is that? Looks nice. I'm trying to decide whether I want carbon, ceramic or nano ceramic tint. I kinda like the matte finish that the carbon has.
Hi just wanted to ask at evening what would be the visibility 30 %
Thank you! Helped me decide on tint before.
I hate my tint laws, 45% max on the front passenger and drivers windows but luckily everything behind can be as dark as possible, so I've got 5% on the very back and it makes the front look like it's not even tinted at all
In my country you can't put anything at all on the windshield or front door windows.
I've always done 5% all the way around. Little hard to see at night but other than that no issues or complaints.
@@JW-gr3mx u heard the man he said 5% all around lol
Thx. Getting tint on the 28th. Going with 15
Eyyy getting tints on the 28th as well. 15% too
5% rear half or 35% all around?
Always wondered how tint looks from the inside. I noticed it looks darker outside than inside. Thanks for video.
Stuart worthchild Belavini 3rd yea me too
That is the point of it
Yoooo this in Virginia! I’ve had my windows done there multiple times and Virginia Beach or Norfolk. I can’t remember.
Would love to see this same comparison in and out view at night as well as with interior lights on and off
I would recommend doing this outside since that is where you usually drive cars lol ;-).
Nevada law let's me get that 35% front, 5% back 3 pretty good considering what California has lol
Thanks for the video. Getting tints done today but couldn't decide on a percentage. Are these ceramic or regular tints? How great of a difference is there?
Sorry but I read “getting tits done today...”
In my experience the darkness from the inside is much clearer in person than a video. So for most tints it's silly to do interior vids. I get it though.
So far I did 15% on the back of my Focus and wish I went with 5, lol. But I'm gonna do 30 on the front windows and the whole windshield at 50. I'm in Ohio. I don't get the visor thing. Just do it all at 50. Way more practical and provides more heat reduction.
I had 5% on my Impala but I think I'ma do all 15 cuz at night it's so hard to see and the cops love messing with ppl in Florida
I agree when you first started it didn't look like there was anything on the windows outside next
ANYONE ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM I tinted my 09 Nissan Rogue 5% all the way around and I literally can't even see inside any of the back windows but the passenger door and driver door window you can see only the steering wheel and dash. Is this because more light is comin in from the front window? I feel like I was told I got 5% but didn't.
you are correct. because your front windshield is not tinted it is letting more light in from the front making the front to windows to appear lighter. your back windows would look exactly the same if you did not have your rear windshield tinted.
How big of a difference is it at night for outward visibility 10% vs 15%? Getting mine done in two days and I'm not sure which one to go with
what’d you end up going with? i’m considering the same thing
@@jaycrzy5737 I went with 15%. 10% is way too risky especially at night. 15 is more than dark enough. I think it's perfect
Not sure why the facination with dark tint. DO this with more reasonable/ legal tint such as 40 and above...
Can I get stop by having a 35 frontside window
Hey Patrick yesterday i was tinting a straight rear window on a 2017 f-250, everythin went well and clean but as I hard tooled the 1/2" dot matrix along the side of the window my film wouldn't stick. I've been told elmers and scotch glue, but the dot matrix isnt much at all. Maybe i should've sanded the dot matrix?
+Ryan Flores make sure to use a good scrub pad. Could have been oils or something to make it shine. Or you slip solution could have been too soapy. You could always try steel wool also triple zero works best for me. Thanks for watching and good luck!
Window Tinting Business thanks Patrick I remixed my slip and lowered it a bit, also used a blue scrubby pad and it finally stuck! Iv never had an actual instructor so Id like to think you and Ralph van pelt are my instructors bro. Thanks for the tips man
Is 30% tint the same as 70% visibility?
Dude this is the most informative video I found for that subject. Thanks a lot :D you made me decide the % ;)
I would suggest taking a photo of each VLT level by setting camera parameters such as ISO, aperture, exposure fixed so that the image captured will be consistent from highest to lowest tint vlt level as compared to video the camera will automatically adjust the exposure of the image whenever it is pointed to lighter or darker side.. However, I found this video very informative.
Getting pulled over immediately in Maryland with anything under 20% legal tint is 35% here but it’s hard to tell the difference between 20 and 30. I tried 5% when I lived in AZ and took them off in a month, couldn’t see a damn thing at night. 15 works just fine out there.
Lol years ago I had 5% and was pulled over the day I got it. Had it 3 years and was pulled over 5 times for my tint.
Few questions for you, what % of tint is legal on everything? Also where are you located? Have been looking for someone to tint my windows.
depends the state that you live in.
5% sucks at night for sure, and rolling the windows down to see when it's cold out really turns any girl off 😂 imma go 15% and compromise with sight/privacy, living in CA sucks w/70% law, everyone's tinted tho so doesn't really matter unless you're drug trafficking, just know if you're running 5% you're also giving a valid reason to be pulled over whenever 🤔
How is it at night?
15% isn’t bad at all. If it’s not well lit then you might have to roll down your windows
Do you A review for night time driving with the tint on I want 30 right now I have 35
Where do you get 30% tint
Around here its 35, 20, and 5%
Very helpful and informal. Gives me an idea of what tint i want.
Just trying to follow the laws of florida. I have an SUV, and they say the back windows have to have more than 6% of light and no more than 35% reflectiveness. So what is the darkest i could legally go?
I just bought a Toyota Corolla SE 2019 with tints but I cant tell if they are 20% or 15% only around noon or when the atmosphere is dark I cant see through it but during day I can see through but not that vaguely
Tint...15 and 20 are so close it will always be hard to tell them apart.
Look at the lower right part of your driver window. It will say what percentage you have there.
I started with 5 kinda blah. Decided on my new truck I would go darker, so 2% it is. All the way around, its definitely dark but looks flawless and havent had any cop issues here in Michigan with it ..so far
Sean Jackson u fuckin crazy lol
I live out in Mason, MI
Plan I’m getting 5 all around and 20 on the shield for my car. I here cops are relaxed here anyway
Good video! I’m going for 15% percent 5 % it will be difficult for me to see through at night, thanks
I currently have 5% on top of my 20% in the back (had 20% all around but kept getting pulled over) so took the 2 passenger off and doubled the backs 🤣 fuck 12 still got it darker than I wanted
that looks good!! my car is getting tint right now.. 20% in front windows and the back will be 30 or something...
How does the 20 look
How do you like the 20 percent?
Your camera has auto exposure so you can't really tell how dark the tint is from the inside?
I had a 30% on my vehicle awhile back, but tint is illegal here over 10%, eventually got it removed due to the harassment by law enforcement.
Edit: Got another car and tinted the fuck out of it anyway eh
I was looking forward to getting a flat pancake cake for the birthhday celebration but instead i got the shitty donut shaped cake. I wanted starscream as the happy meal toy but got some helicopter one instead. My whole life has just been rife with people intentionally doing things to mess with me.
Legal limit is 28 I. My state
Harvey Specter decided to start his own business
Just got 5 percent except the front and back of the car. Had to drive it with the windows up for 30 miles in the afternoon. I would have laughed if I got pulled over a couple minutes after I had just taken it out of the shop. In California i can probably get away with it on the freeway but If it rains I’m probably screwed.
I used to always get 5 or 10% in Cali while I was in high school. I had more than 8 fix it tickets. Racking up 1000s of dollars. Haha I'd never get away with that in LA it's 35%. I'm in Colorado now it's 27%. I miss the10% but not worth it so hard to see and youre a cops reason to tag you.
NJ sucks. I can't legally do anything to the front windows smh.
Will Rain-X or water repellant products wear down the window tint?
The window tint is installed on the inside so nothing you out on the outside will effect it. Just watch for ammonia based products
It would be nice to see what it looks like outside in bright sunlight
question. I'm new to this. Does the percentage mean how much light is blocked out, or how much is let in?
The VLT (visible light transition) represents the amount of light it allows through.
I have 20 percent on my front windows and 5 percent on the back windows and my rear is 20 percent
What’s the legal tint
Yesss I really love this video was very informative 30% for me I'm 60ish lol but thank you
Just saw a vid showing %35 %20 %5 so im confused. Is it same as 30,15,5,?
Man with 5 percent u can't see ur side mirrors for shit, no wonder ppl with dark ass tints don't know how to merge lanes they can't see their blind spots
Personally I love 30% Ceramic film. Looks so classy.
PLATINUM is it dark enough where you cant identify the face?
Yabby Gideon No, not in sunlight. I have 20% on my truck and people can still tell it's me during the day. I'm doing my whole windshield in 35% so that'll go away soon
