- 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.
- 20% tint (factory match)
- Close to the privacy glass a lot of trucks and SUVs come with, which is why it gets used so often to match front doors to the back.
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
- Sun strip
- Also called a visor strip or brow: a band of film across the top of the windshield that blocks the low sun a visor misses.
- Over factory privacy glass
- Privacy glass is dyed glass: dark, but weak at stopping heat. Film goes on top of it, which is why the finished glass reads darker than the number on the film.
- Front match
- Front door windows tinted to the same darkness as the rear glass, so the vehicle reads as one even shade.
