%

The percentage of window tint (%) represents the amount of visible light that can pass through the glass and the tinting material. This value is called VLT(visible light transmission)  and is key to understanding how dark the tint will be. 

  • 100% VLT: No tint; all visible light passes through the glass.
  • 50% VLT: Allows half of the visible light to pass through, being a lighter tint.
  • 35% VLT: Lets 35% of visible light pass through, offering a balance between clarity and privacy.
  • 20% VLT: Only 20% of visible light passes through, making it much darker and popular for those seeking greater privacy.
  • 5% VLT: Known as “limo tint,” it is extremely dark and allows only 5% of visible light to pass through, offering maximum privacy.

Installation process

• Preparation: Thorough cleaning of the windows to remove dirt, dust, or debris that could affect the adhesion of the tint.
• Measurement and Cutting: The tint film is measured and cut to the exact size of each window, ensuring a perfect fit.
• Application: A soapy solution is used to position the film on the glass, allowing adjustments before it is permanently fixed.
• Squeegee: Tools like spatulas are used to remove air bubbles and excess liquid, ensuring a completely smooth surface.
• Curing: The tint film is left to cure for several days, avoiding rolling down the windows to ensure proper adhesion and durability.

To remove the old window tint, we use a steam machine to soften the adhesive and then carefully peel off the film. Afterward, we clean any adhesive residue, leaving the glass clean and ready for new tinting. This process takes time, as it is done with great care to ensure a high-quality result

Origins of Window Tinting

The use of tinted glass in vehicles began in the 1960s, when it was introduced in automobile windows to reduce glare and improve privacy. 

Evolution and Technological Advancements:

Over time, window tinting has evolved, incorporating advanced technologies that offer additional benefits such as protection from ultraviolet (UV) rays, infrared (IR) protection, improved energy efficiency, and reduced glare. For example, dynamic window films have advanced from static versions to smart options that allow adjusting the tint level based on light conditions. 

Applications in Buildings:

In addition to its use in vehicles, window tinting has extended to commercial and residential buildings. Tinted window films in buildings help control indoor temperature, improve energy efficiency, and protect against UV rays, reducing wear on furniture and decor. 

Today, window tinting is a widely accepted practice, both for its practical benefits and aesthetic improvements.
