Guys,
What's the tint formula, the lower the number , the darker shade the tint ?
Thanks

yes. lower # is darker. Have to take in consideration the color of your interior. I have black interior and didn't want to go really dark to prevent situations with LEO's so I went with 35% all the way around, but typically most people go with 20%.

I've got 20% color stable on sides and rear, to match moonroof, crystalline front, no problems seeing out at night. Tints have come a long way sinc 1980's limo tints....

I just installed 3M Crystalline on the whole car and thoroughly impressed with how cool it is in the sun. Highly recommended.

50% front, 40% sides, rear, roof.
