Try each shade on the car

The number is how much light the film lets through, so a lower number is darker. Front side windows in Wisconsin need 50% or lighter, and the rear windows 35% or lighter. The shade sets how dark the glass looks; the film you choose sets how much heat it keeps out.

Questions

Questions about tint shades

See all our FAQs
What tint shades can I choose from?

From darkest to lightest: 5%, 15%, 20%, 35%, 50% and 70%. Darker shades give more privacy, lighter ones keep a factory look, and we make sure the front windows stay legal.

How dark can I tint my windows in Wisconsin?

In Wisconsin, the front side windows must let in at least 50% of light, and the rear side windows and back window can take at least 35%. We check the law for your car before we start.

Is ceramic tint worth it?

Yes, if heat matters to you. Ceramic film keeps more heat out without having to look darker: Union Ceramic IR blocks up to 87% of infrared heat, against 75% for Union Carbon IR.

When can I roll my windows down after tinting?

Keep them up for 3 to 5 days while the film dries, and wait a week before cleaning the inside of the glass. Use a soft cloth and an ammonia-free cleaner.
