When I first got my 370z I did 5% all around including the windshield. THAT was dumb and way too dark. But 5% with a 20% windshield is my sweet spot

I am sorry. I don't understand 5% all around and 15% on the windshield. New car owner here. Please explain. Thank you.

@fredbetan9117 The side and back windows were Tinited 5% (Dark tint). The window you look out of (Windshield) is tinted 20%(Little bit lighter but still dark)

I get 20% all around with a 5% strip on the windshield - never had a full windshield tint but I've driven vehicles with full windshield tint (20%) and it was nice during the day. I wouldn't do it myself, though.

Great Video Thank You, I am from South Florida i have a tint exemption which allows me to tint without restrictions. My car is 5% Nano Premium, Windshield is 15% nano. I upgrade the headlights to the brighties led i could find i still run high beam at night with fog lights, i have seen many times cops pull out when i pass they run my tag and soon they go around or turn back. As you said you cant see inside. I have had people people try to open my doors especially when parked in parking lots. I wait for people to try to open the door at that second i cracked the by window and my Geeman Shepherd 100lbs on guard and waiting alwaya does rhe trick. I also have the same setup on my older van i converted into a rv bed tc game system the works its amazing being able to pull into a walmart or where ever turn off the lights crawl into bed knowing pwople cant see in. Thats always a plus. And during the summer 100+ you can seriously tell a difference. I never feel rhe hest coming in which is great and jt helps the ac to work alot less.

I've enjoyed all of your tint vids and you helped me with the decision to tint my windshield. Currently, I have 20% all around and 50 on the windshield but want to darken the cabin without touching the sides. Would you suggest I get 40 on the windshield, 5 in my rear window, or both?

Looks dope. I put 15% on my windshield not too long ago. I had it removed a few days later because the "silvering" effect of the dot matrix looked especially bad with the dark tint. Clarity wise, no problems during the day but driving at night in the mountains with no street lights (I live in Colorado) is a bit dark and some might have an issue. Did you learn to live with the dot matrix issue or do you have a fix for it?

@@carjockey2135 Most aftermarket market windshields have raised dot matrix. I just had my Volvo windshield replaced with factory glass and the dot matrix was not raised. It’s as if it’s painted into the glass. This makes for a proper tint job because the tint will lay flat against the glass.

People never consider the number and size of windows, along with the interior color. More windows = more light so it looks lighter. I have 20 with a 35 windshield on a sedan with an espresso color interior. It looks much darker than the white interior with the same setup.

@KyleClimaco 6 ай бұрын

yeah this is true, great points to consider. I've only had black interiors, but have worked on teslas with white interiors. it feels like the only way to get a blacked out look on those is to paint the windows lol
