Window Tinting: What’s the Best

[MSchnLoneStar19]

Here in Texas and will be taking possession of my New Lonestar in the next week or two.

I would like to re-tint the windows with a hybrid carbon / ceramic tint... but getting confused on the research.

What is the best type and brand for Cab Heat Reduction, Cellular Reception, and Visibility.

Windshield Brow: 25%
Front Side Windows: 25%
Back Side Windows: 20%
Back Window: 20%

Big THANKS in advance.

Pretty sure the rear window and back side windows are tinted glass, not clear glass with a film on it. For the front windows, most have found that 20% is the closest to matching the darkness of the factory tinted glass.

I am getting Ceramic done on mine. Getting Suntek. Limo(5% done on back door windows and back window) and 20% done on front windows. I have my fire dept stuff in back so with limo tint nobody can see in back. Was quoted $275(canadian)

25% is the legal limit for the front windows in Texas. You can blackout the rear. Had mine done this weekend.

I had 3M film installed, lifetime warranty and very good quality.

Carbon, Ceramic, or Hybrid?

Brand ?

Down here in Florida I've always gone with ceramic tint and have always been happy with it. I also get a Covercraft UVS100 fitted sunshade for all of my vehicles and it keeps a lot of heat out of the cabin when parked in the sun.
