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.
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.
- 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.
