dirt huffer Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Anyone tint their windshield? I'm looking at doing 55% or 70% ceramic tint. I have 15% on sides now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zalienz Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 I tinted mine, 50%. It made a huge difference in the amount of heat from the sun came in in the summer. A/C works much better and cools off faster. I'm mostly happy I did it. Downside is it's illegal in California, and I have noticed as I am growing older it makes it harder to see at night. But, these days I don't drive a lot at night anymore. dirt huffer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Ridley Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 The 3M Crystalline product significantly reduces IR heat without needing tint. It works very well but is expensive. dirt huffer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrm223 Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 There are clear ceramic products (can't really call it "tint") available that will block 70% of heat trying to come through the windshield. As mentioned, it's pretty expensive, but worth it. You can also get ceramic tint in different levels that will block more heat than any cheap non-ceramic tint, but at a cost. Check out this video, they use a heat lamp & meter to show the difference between cheap junk tint and ceramic.
