Window Tint Officially Installed

[sparkygreen]

Looks great, I have the crystalline 70% on my windshield and as you said you can’t tell and it really reduces cabin temperature. Only thing I don’t like but not that big of a deal is if you wear polarized sunglasses which I do 95% of the time you get a prism effect sometimes but I can live with it.

Thanks! I had a long drive yesterday and didn't notice any prism effects with polarized sunglasses. I wonder if the darker the tint (70% vs 90%) this is more prevalent?

Strange, are you sure your glasses are polarized? It’s like a rainbow effect, white vehicle’s approaching will have a pinkish hue to them is what I notice the most. Again not a huge deal but it is there.

I thought they were, but upon further review, maybe not. Ill try my Maui Jim's whenever the sun comes back out (been rainy for 2 days).

NC requires inspection but no sticker on the windshield. If your state requires a sticker that gets changed each year, I guess you would need to cut out the tint to leave room for the sticker so it can be carefully removed and re-applied directly to the glass? Check with your tint installer as I have to assume they deal with that issue in a state where stickers are required.

Good luck!

Just jumping in. What is the advantage to ceramic window tint over traditional window tint. Just learned about ceramic coating the paint....and now windows. I gotta catch up.

Ceramic tint does a better job at keeping heat out

Here in Pennsylvania, window tinting is a great way to help offset all the red ink on the governments books. Seems like the only the the states good at is issuing fines!

I’m waiting or the state to open window tinting shops in every town. Only to pull you over 1/2 down the street.

Just got mine done as well, 3M all around, 50% on the windshield and 20% on the front windows to match the factory tint.

Yeah that’s what I get with my polarized glasses. A rainbow effect but it isn’t too bad and don’t really notice it anymore!

I don’t get any rainbow effect with my polarized ray bans and my windshield tint. I think it depends on the manufacturer.
