The shades on this job
- 5% tint (limo tint)
- The darkest shade most shops carry. Only about 5% of visible light gets through, so from outside the glass reads black and you cannot see in during the day.
- 15% tint (dark)
- Dark, but not blacked out. In daylight you can make out shapes inside if you look for them. From across a parking lot the glass still reads black.
- 50% tint (light)
- A light smoke. Most people would not call the glass tinted at a glance, but the glare drops as soon as you sit inside.
In Arizona the back side windows and rear glass can be any shade. Front side windows have to let more than 33% of light through.
Reading the notes
- Removal
- The old film and its adhesive come off before anything new goes on. Faded, bubbled, or peeling film cannot be tinted over.
- Full windshield
- Film over the whole windshield, usually a light shade picked for heat rather than looks. Arizona only allows windshield tint above the AS-1 line, so ask before you copy this one.
- Rear half
- Every window behind the front doors, plus the back glass. On a pickup that is the rear doors and the rear window.
- Carbon
- Carbon film blocks infrared heat with carbon particles and has no dyed layer, so the color holds.
- Ceramic
- Ceramic film rejects infrared heat and blocks 99% of UV at any darkness, even nearly clear.
