  • @ONI1013.
    @ONI1013. 3 месяца назад

    One other thing to mention is not just the darkness, but the _hue_ of the tint. Most people think tint is just shades of gray, but in reality, there are assortments of color which will look dramatically different against the color of your car’s interior and exterior. Also if your back window already has factory tint , color matching it would help get you that “seamless” factory look.

If this video was an essay and the only thing that could go wrong is NOT DELIVERING on what is said to be covered...5 out 5 stars. STANDING OVATION with an almost rabid clapping. I am sure I will cry when I have time to process what is happening in this video. I even THINK I get those accounts of people tearing their cloths off and running around like a lunatic. I want to YELL with excitement. Give me something aromatically rich and exuberating..NO, you have already given me enough. Im not going to be able to get enough sleep for a week. Stay with me here, but I think this video should be shown at those Anonymous meetings. YOU can't hear me clapping, so YOU are left with this reaction. WELL DONE SIR. WELL DONE. BRA-VO.

  • @JeLifeCoach
    @JeLifeCoach Год назад

    What a great video. Thank you! If the glass from factory comes shaded or tinted ans the glass is rated at 70, is it true or untrue, that whatever values tint I put on (35 or 50) will read darker than its number because of the glass not being clear but shaded. So .7 x .35 = .24. In your experience does that hold up or no? A 35 or 55 tint will remain looking as you have demonstrated here? Thank you!

    Hello- I am curious on if the tints appear lighter when you are looking from the side, because sometimes I see tints and they are dark when I loom directly at them, but when I look from the side they appear lighter. Also, I was wondering what a good tint is to not really be seen much, I ride around in a 2009 Porsche Panamera and people stare at it alot, I currently have a 80% tint on it and its wrapped in a lime green color and I want My cars color to be brighter than the tint, I was thinking of putting some really dark window tint like maybe a 20-40% tint because I usually drive with the windows rolled down.

    Sad to say it BUT, Basically the ones that Look good are going to be Illegal in most states.
    (For quick reference go to 0:45 shows tint ratings.)
    First 2 aren't legal ANYWHERE.
    20% the 3rd darkest is only legal in New Mexico
    The 4th 35% Ok for about half the country.
    A few states Only allow 70% the lightest tint in the video. NY, DC, IA, CA, AK, DE and RI.
    No Tint allowed at all on the front windows 😩 NJ, VT, NH

    The colour of your interior can even make a difference to how dark the car looks when tinted. Light colour interiors will make your tint look lighter from outside as more light is bouncing around inside the car.

  • @Denverian
    @Denverian 5 дней назад

    if you are ever wondering or tempting, go for 60-70% ceramic optical clarity windshield film + 30/35% carbon film all around. Worth every penny for glare control and heat rejections. I tried a variety of tints over various cars (sedan/hatch/suv/minivan), and anything above 50% on side windows is too light, and anything below 50% on windshield is too dark for many driving conditions. You can go for below 30% all around but at that point it's beyond functional and it goes into an aesthetic realm, which you better know what you are getting into. I've seen people doing 30% or below on windshield and it's undriveable, don't do that.
    Lastly, if you've got SUV/minivan and not planning on doing any tints in the back windows because of factory "privacy" glass, think twice and apply light ceramic films. The privacy glasses are only adding visibility shade and still let infrared (all the heat) and UVa (bad UV) through. Need a film to block the bad UV and ceramic film for infrared heat rejection. Same thing for EV glass roofs, apply ceramic film or get a cover.
    Finally, if you ever get pulled over for whatever reasons, just roll down all the windows so that the officer can see inside the car without any obstructions, and you should be good from any tint related issues

    My suv has the factory rear tint at 20% & I got the fronts done to match. It’s still not as dark as I’d like, so I asked & they recommended that I’ll get the most effect by tinting the front windshield at 50% and that’ll darken the entire car. Is that correct? I’m considering getting it done.
