I apologize for the bad audio. I definitely missed that in this video. In the future I'll definitely have voice higher than any music. It's a work in progress and I do all my own stunts. Thank you. I hope you check out my other videos.
It would also help to have music that was less repetitive sounding. You had great content here and that took away and distracted from it. Thanks for the video and keep them coming!! :)
Well I didn't do the best editing the sound but yes Ceramic film will block out more heat than the other lines of film. I always try to use Ceramic for Full Windshield installs and just charge accordingly. I want to make a better updated video about Ceramic in the future. Thanks for checking it out.
I had no idea that the 70% ceramic made that much of a difference. Thanks I just bought a semi and will definitely be adding this to the list of things to do to it.
Wow, I just got 5 percent all around on my vehicle. I was wanting to tint the windshield, but didn't want all the attention that gets from law enforcement. The 70 percent ceramic is definitely the way to go for that! I can't believe that the 5 percent did so poorly in that test, I feel like it's much cooler with the 5 percent versus nothing, but it almost seems like that does little to nothing with that test you did! Thanks for the great video!
Yeah it really depends on the line of film. A Ceramic will block out more heat than just a dark film. Just helping people understand why Ceramic costs more. 70% is a nice film that works and like you said might help keep the law from tripping to much. Thank you for watching, even though I know the sound wasn't very good.
@@kevinhill.8 yes I had someone comment on that, I'll work on that for future videos. I'm just a Tinter Trying to be a videographer at times. Thanks for letting me know.
I live in Phoenix. I have ceramic all around. 20% all around and 70% on the windshield. My windshield made the biggest difference guys. He's on point. Thanks again Update 8 months later: as long as I’m in in a hot state. I won’t ever go back without a ceramic tinted windshield. It’s so good that I’m doing it for my girls car
Thank you for taking the time to comment. That's why I feel everyone can use 70% on their windshield. Thanks again, I hope you checked out some other videos.
@@Demidannyy 20% on the sides is pretty much the norm on the vehicles I tint. Also remember most SUVs and minivans have rear privacy glass that's close to 20% so it's common and most can see well out of it.
@@FadeToBlackLLC how much would it cost to get 70% ceramic tint on windshield, 20 side window and 5% on the 2 small back windows and rear windshield on a mustang?
Thanks for watching some of the videos... We'll be talking more about the business side of things this year. Well that's my Goal. We also go Live and talk with people that have been running tint businesses to learn and share tips.
Just had my car done-- 70 windshield and front, 5 rears. Outside looking in on the 70, you can see a slight tint. Will it cops care especially here in California? I doubt it. Inside looking out? Amazing! It's like viewing HDR in your car. You would probably need to go darker than 70 on the windshield if you are sensitive to bright lights coming at you. Doesn't do a whole lot to dim HID and bright LED headlights but cut the glare at bit.
@@FadeToBlackLLC Yeah Ceramic. It reduces the staring into the sun type of effect of bright headlights. LOL For me I really notice the clarity in my field of view more. Passengers don't even realized there's tint on the windshield until I say something.
@@TheWarptOne very much cool. But think about it's awesome stuffed. I'm one of the only shops that even carry it around here. I'm glad you are liking other.
@@stevecarey5918 really? Windshields are tough especially since you are looking trough it constantly. I just replaced one because the customer thought it was tint and I found out it was his windshield.. A lot of wasted film on my part but he would have never believed me if I said it was his car. They are tough to deal with.
Been rocking ceramic tints for almost 6 years. My last car didn’t have this and I was being roasted like a turkey with the windows up and my arms were clearly a few shades darker. Ever since I got ceramic tints I’ve never had this issue. Need to get my windshield done now.
Ceramic Tint is good stuff, it's crazy no matter how much I talk about it people still have no idea about it. Full Windshield makes a world of difference.
Before you buy tint for your front window (it”s illegal in all 50 states by the way for a reason, look it up) ask your car insurance company if you are still covered if you hit a pedestrian at night while driving a car with a windshield modification that makes it illegal.
There's always that one guy. These are things we know and deal with EVERY DAY as a business owner. I don't tell Gun shops not to sell guns to people when they can be illegal as well. It's something that you need to have common sense with like most things in life. Also this film is clear so you wouldn't even know it's there 70% Ceramic Full Windshield. Thank you for your comment.
70 percent ceramic tint over factory 20 is equal to about 14 percent tint. So basically, you could add a 15% tint on the front side Windows to make them look like they match!
Yes but I'm using this to show how 70% can benefit everyone being applied to a full windshield. Also 70% Ceramic over the rear on SUVs and Minivans because a lot of older people don't want to go dark but this will help keep the interior cooler. I do install a lot of 15% Fronts for another shop, but I myself use 20% and most of my customers are happy with it. Thanks for watching.
I pointed it at the object as if the sun was passing through a window and landing on it. As in your skin or the dash board and heating it up. The Ceramic tint is going to block out heat and less will enter the vehicle that's why I measured after the tint not ON the tint. If that makes sense?
Thats a good selling pitch " when we are young we want Darker tint" in reality 3m tint has different % of shade but all have the same quality of protection. I have 3m tint on all my windows. I have 70% on wield shield 50% on side doors ( driver and passenger) then 20% for my 4 back windows. Its literally light and day in the summer keeping out heat and keeping warm in winter. The front window for 3m for front wield shield is $300 to $500 just for that window fyi. But its worth it because that's where most sun hits. His a good sales person tho. I would said it differently as a sales person myself, I would have said "being younger we just want tinted windows for show but not for quality but the 3m isn't just tint but a item that will improve your vehicle in the summer from the heat staying cool and staying warm in winter". Then break it down further. Because regular tint is useless in my opinion it only provides shade but no heat reduction but 3m provides all around protection with all shades.
You definitely know what your talking about. Yeah as we get more WISER we want things for different reasons. I like to be comfortable and not just be dark anymore ha ha. Sounds like your ride is covered! 👍🏾
Nice video, crazy how much of a difference different films types make. I'm having trouble deciding on my car's tint, I want either 70% or 50% front windshield and front windows tint and 15% back windows tint with 35% back windshield tint (so I can see better backing up at night, that is a concern I have). However I don't know if these combinations make the transition look good or if lighter tint is even necessary for the back windshield tint for when backing up at night. Thanks, would help a lot and I value your expert opinion
When I back up I have a rear camera and I also use my mirrors and not the rear view mirror. I personally like to keep the shades all the same. So you are all over and that drives me a little crazy to be honest. I personally have 50% on both of my windshields so I’m cool with that. For sides and rear just do 20% and keep it simple.
You know I actually never try to upsell someone local when wanting something done. I do think that this is really nice to have on any vehicle. Young or old we all can enjoy the benefits of this film. Thank for watching. I want to film and install it on my truck when I get time.
@@FadeToBlackLLC same, my truck has factory tinted back windows but I want to get some for my front and I'm glad I saw you video before I just grabbed some cheap stuff from Walmart
Been watching your channel and subbed for a while to it and never saw this video I found out the things your saying myself and it’s very accurate if I watched this sooner I would’ve told more people but great video man your a huge inspiration, from a young tinter trying come up like you 🙏🏽
I appreciate the kind words and I’m happy that I was able to help you out. I’m trying to get more Contant on the channel just been busy, but it’s motivating when I hear that I can help out others taking the time to get cotton on my channel. I appreciate you.
I've got to stop purchasing new windshields for my Harley Road King just b'c bugs and sand scar up the plexiglass type windshields. Would this ceramic tint protect my windshield from scratches made by bugs & grit ? Would I be able to replace the tint from time to time as it gets beat up while saving my windshield ? Do you have an opinion or suggestion ?? Thanks for your generous consideration, Sincerely ........................... Steph
If you live somewhere hot as hell. Definitely get 70 ceramic on the windshield. It’s so good that I’m doing it for my girl friends car Monday. 50 is better but in my opinion a bigger gamble. Especially since I regularly travel to California
what about in the winter when you r trying to defrost the front windhshied won teh ceramic tint block the heat front the heater in the truck so the windshield will get ice all over it thanks
No the heat from the defrost comes from the Vents in the dashboard, that has nothing to do with the tint. Ceramic film helps keep your interior temp more consistent during winter so your not getting blasted from the sun entering through the glass.
Does 70% percent ceramic tint come in different grades??? Had a tint guy say there are two grades of it . He charge $120 for low grade $220 for high grade. Which one was you testing.....thanks
The con I see with tinting your windshield is if you had to break the glass to escape your vehicle, especially if you were submerged under the water or on fire.
Even if something hits the glass it will stay in one piece. Use ceramic to block the heat and a nice shade to reduce the glare. Plenty of reasons to tint its. Oh and it looks AWESOME!
I'm trying to figure out a tint for my cars, im in PA so I think the legal is only 70% on all windows. I'm going to have to go ask at the police station I think because the back glass is already smoked. I'd love to at least do 50 but the heat reduction is my main goal. The eye protection at night too, I've been behind cars now who's tail lights are bright enough to hurt.
Definitely go with a Ceramic film. That stinks you can only go 70% though. At least 50% would be nice. I'd do the whole vehicle including Windshield with the film though to help. Even over the oem smoked glass.
Would it mess up my insurance policy if I tint the windshield with that 70% ceramic? Kinda heard that if involved in an accident,it will put me automatically at fault..something like that.
With this 70% it's clear no one can even tell it's been applied. I can't see why how you would have any issues with it? Chances are if you have an accident it wouldn't be related to being able to see out of the windshield. You should see how many people do 5% on there veh now a days. They can't see but it's on them.
In my state it is illegal to tint the windshield at all. Is it possible to get the benefit of ceramics with a 85-90%? Something that will go unnoticed?
Im thinking of doing a 70% on my windshield in ceramic. I see you're using a panaflex on your sample... im being encouraged to go with Wincos 70 by Madico. i was told it has a slight blue hue.. i haven't seen it in person yet. looks like the panaflex was slight blue. are all the 70% slight blue that you have seen. I really think i prefer clear as opposed to a color.. TIA.. great video BTW
The Panaflex actually looks very clear no blue at all. I've seen some Llumar with a slight blue but when looking through it I think it's good. Check out my Impala video with the Colored tint, now that is very different looking through it.
@@FadeToBlackLLC I ended up going with 3M Crystalline 70% on the windshield and panoramic roof of my 22’ Lexus ES Ultra Luxury. I’m extremely happy with the result. No blue hue.. and immediately noticeable glare and heat reduction
@@OfficiallyTonyGianni that's awesome, glad it worked out for you! I have Ceramic on my Van as well and 70 is a great way to avoid problems with the law and reduce heat.
Hello. I recently got 3M ceramic IR 50% windshield tint. Last year, however, I got 3M Color Stable on the side and rear windows. As far as heat rejection goes, is it worth removing the color stable (nano carbon) film on the side and rear windows and installing ceramic film on the rest of the car? I have 35% on the front side and 5% on the rear windows. Will I feel a noticeable difference or should I save the money and keep the nano carbon film on the other windows or upgrade them to ceramic like I have on my windshield?
That's a good question. In the past I had Ceramic on the Full Windshield and Carbon on the sides. If you feel like the sides or rear still feels hotter compared to the Windshield I'd say yes change the sides. If you don't seem to notice I'd leave it. Driving into the sun with a Dyed Film on my windshield back in the day my hand would be hot. I switched to Ceramic and I could tell my hand on the steering wheel stayed cool. So go with what you feel. I hope that helps some. Hard to explain with typing.
@@FadeToBlackLLC thanks! I do feel a little warm from the sunlight sometimes through the driver’s side windows but I’m not sure if it’s worth the money/if it’ll truly cool down the car by a major noticeable difference or not if I switch to all ceramic.
@@gregoireansari6651 that's hard to really say. I drive directly into the sun heading west every day so when I switch to Ceramic I could tell right away. It just depends, a lot of variables but you will have to decide.
Really appreciate your videos, you do great work. I'm looking to get into tinting and want to start with one of my own vehicles. What brand of film do you use or reccomend?? Any feedback is appreciated
I don't really talk about brands it's more of a personal preference. I've been using Flexfilm, Tint Club and now SolarFx for various reasons but they are all good films
@@FadeToBlackLLC I'll look into those, I just didn't want to buy low quality film and end up with purple windows or something like that. Keep up the good work, I hope business is good. Thanks for the input.
Have Black Pearl (I was told 70) on my side and back windows, now want to get windshield done. I see there is a NR70 and a NC75. Would one be better than the other for the windshield? Thanks
Is it normal to have a cloudy haze on your windshield when driving towards the sun with 70% ceramic tint after it was installed 4 days ago? And will the haze go away, or do I need to get the ceramic tint replacement on my windshield?
Some Ceramic will have a haze at certain angles. It's called Low Angle Haze. It might happen at certain times when the sun hits. You should really just talk to the shop that installed it if you feel there is an issue. Thanks.
I just tinted my whole car expect windshield, thinking of getting 70% on windshield even though it's illegal in my state. Because heat comes most from damn windshield
So I’m sold. But here’s my issue. I live in Colorado. No window tint on the windshield is legal here. Can I get away with a 70% if a cop pulls me over for something else would he/she notice? I can not do glare at night I need something!
Hey man I’m really enjoying the channel. Had a quick question tho. I have 3% tint on my rear windows and the front have 15%. I wanted to get my windshield tinted since it gets really hot. I wanted to go with the ceramic film but I also wanted some tint on the windshield. What would look the best for privacy but not have me on alert for the feds. I’m looking for a not really visible look through the windshield but also not something super dark. Preciate it brotha!
Thank you for watching. I'd do 50% on the windshield in Ceramic. A nice light smoke and if you open up the sunroof it let the windows down it will look lighter when you need it to. I have more videos coming up with 50% full windshield content, just need time to get them up.
If you wear Polarized sunglasses you will definitely notice that. Some films might have more of that look than others. The films I use don’t show that.
I’ve never had anyone complain about clarity. People love having their windshield tinted. If it cracks and gets replaced they come right back to have new tint installed.
I want to get my windshield tinted but I’m not sure if i should get 70% or 50%. What do you recommend? I’m in Florida so the sun is VIOLENT down here and my area is pretty lenient on tint laws
I’m debating on the % I should get.. 5% all around & 70% on the windshield OR 5% rear, 15% front & 45% windshield I want the complete privacy plus heat rejection but am a little sketchy with the 5% on the front two windows because of driving at night.. but during the day I don’t want people to see in so that’s why I’d do 45% on the windshield so it’d help but idk
Nice vid. Question for you. I have formula one ceramic tints on all of my cars (including 50 on the windshield). I wanted to get ceramic on my moonroof/sunroof but I was told that it is not advisable as ceramic absorbs heat. I should at least use metallic tint on my moonroof/sunroof since metallic reflects heat and sun since the roof is always hit by sunlight. Is it true? Any thoughts? Thank you!
Some do say it's not good to tint sunroofs. It's crazy I think just did one today with Ceramic. I've never had any issues yet with sunroof. Here in Wisconsin we have have cloudy skies half of the year though. I say if you really want it done, have them do it and them sign off for no responsibility.
@@FadeToBlackLLC Thank you for your feedback. Personally I think it is a good idea to tint sunroof. I have seen a lot of Tesla owners doing it on their panoramic rood. It is hard to get someone to tint sunroof but I did find a couple willing and they both said that it is better to use non ceramic for those. They did have the same reasoning. I do live in Florida so it can be quite hot on the sunroof.
@@ItsCreates well you will have tint where your not supposed to. So I can't say either way? Some have good luck and some people don't. No way to know if you'll attract more attention?
70% is virtually clear so what color you put on it will look pretty close to THAT color. If you install 70% over rear Privacy Glass like my latest video you won't notice it get any darker. Not enough to tell a difference.
Hey I appreciate it. I have to work on the music, that one was a little off but at least you understand what I was trying to say. Still learning how to give a presentation. Thanks for watching.
I can't guarantee you will or not. I don't know where you live or drive the most? I usually Suggest 50% to all my customers because most people can see out of it. It's different when most people have dark windows on the rest of the vehicle. I'd rather be safe than sorry. I also have a ton of 50% Full Windshield vidoes on here.
@@FadeToBlackLLC I live in NYC and I mostly drive at night. The reason I am thinking of tinting my windsheild because I want it to be cool insidr and most important I want to avoid the glare from the sun which kinda blinds me in the day time. Will do 70% block the glare from the sun?
@@shujayethossain6554 70% won't block much glare. You'll need at least 50%. If you have street lights around you'll be fine. I live in the country and I can still see fine at night with 50%.
It won't interfere with electronics but honestly I don't remember if Polarized glasses look wierd through it because I don't wear them. Some film like Llumar looks rainbowish right out of the box and that will look weird but I don't think the 70% does if I remember correctly.
@@FadeToBlackLLC Could you recommend the best brands when it comes to ceramic films as there are a lot and just like you we only want the real and the best
@@mathewlim7401 Well I never say the BEST...any brands can have issues. I've been using MY brands for years with no issues but we all have our preferences. If you want to Email me I'll send over some links fadetoblackllc@gmail.com
It will help, but. Also need to have an idea on what darkness you use. I have 50% on my windshield, and it helps with the glare a lot. It however does not fully get rid of it though
I love all of your videos! can you do a video about how much tint (% & length) a new tinter should buy if starting own business? Also would love a price breakdown of what to charge customers!!! Thank you!
I have a video here based on roll sizes.. You have to look through my videos. I don't post or talk prices, they are different all over the country based on the market and brands used. Call around to the local shops and ask for the popular install prices and that will help you know what to charge. Stay close to them and don't undercut. You loose money and it also brings down the market prices.
Talk to your local tint shop and see what they want to do. You can layer tint. Clear Ceramic is clear shades, like 70, 80 and I've seen 90. I prefer 70 to give some filter of light.
Oh man you said Tints, that's like scratching a chalkboard 🤣🤣🤣 We don't have Inspection stickers in Wisconsin if you look any of my Windshield videos they don't have them. I've heard of people laminating them and sticking them to the tint but I'm not sure.
For some reason Ceramic is now getting pretty popular. I won't confuse them with another level of Ceramic. Most just like the basic Ceramic I've been using now.
This video was uploaded over a year ago. Some including myself like to plan out things on my vehicles for the upcoming year. There have been advancements in the Technology of window films that people can consider doing in the future. Thats why I said 2020 when it was upload last time if that makes sense?
I think I need something like this as I suffer from severe ight sensitivity, that means UV lights, the new Ledheadight, and even Florescent lights are quite bothersome to my eyes. Can I still get a dark tinted visor strip along with the clear 70° ceramic?
Depends on who's doing it and what you pay for. I live in a ghetto block and I see these wack ass teens put them on all the time. And it's ugly. They got bubbles and it's not even done correctly. If the person knows where they're doing ( Professionals) you will never have a problem.
@@khmerbraveheart I agree.. They probably didn't pay the money for a good quality film. I provide a Lifetime Warranty so I need a quality product to use.
I install Carbon and Ceramic. Some of the Gen 4 Dyed stuff is a good product. I just found what works best for my Market and pricing. Some of the Dyed colors I don't care for as much either. I like a dark black looking film.
I'm guessing that film has the Low Angle Haze that people talk about with some Ceramics? I've been using Panaflex 70% with no issues. Very clear film. Hopefully you get some clear film installed on there soon.
@@FadeToBlackLLC mmm yeah but Suntek CXP isn't ceramic, weird it's milky looking when the sun hits it. I dont notice it after a while, but when I first put it on I was a bit dissapointed. It does cut a good amount of heat though. 44% TSER if that's anything to go by.
Times have changed. I do a windshield at least once a week. Just did two this week. Both of our main vehicles have full windshields and also the RV on this channel. It's a popular thing up here.
@@FadeToBlackLLC But what about the strip only? I have been told to either do the entire windshield or nothing at all. Why not the strip, does it peel off or something?
The temperature will go up with time so what's the benefit outside protection of the dash? Every tint joint has one of those heat boxes to upsale you the ceramic film. Thanks
I try to share the ideas off keeping the car cooler with Ceramic while your in the vehicle more do that just sitting in a parking lot all day. Driving your vehicle towards the sun on a road hot day Ceramic will help keep the car cooler m Yes there are always certain types of situations you'll have to deal with. It's not perfect but it helps. I'm driving my truck to the West with Ceramic on the fronts and no heat is getting through the film and keeping me more comfortable. My windshield on the truck isn't tinted and I can feel the heat on my hand driving coming through.
I try to use more heat and less Card when shrinking... Check out my Shrink Slow video.. Using the heat to let the film mold shrinks it a lot better. Also maybe don't use the heat all the way up so it's not as hot.
I have no problem shrinking it 22 year tint veteran. I use Avery Dennison 75% windshield film. Fairly new to the ceramic thing. It's so thick it doesn't "flow" like the thinner film for side and back glass. Only get small creases when installing it, even with 2 people. And back rolling is not always an option in brand new cars. Do you spend the extra hour to dismantle the giant plastics and take off the mirror?
Also. I live in the middle of Kansas. A town of about 10k things take longer here to be accepted or "take off " tried clear shield about 8 year's ago and it was a flop
And yes I love stretching the 75% IR film. You can get it to hot and it turns into rubber and gets sticky. Slow and low is the key. Or stretch it hot and then wait a few seconds before using the card.
What i want from a tint is to make it less of a greenhouse and to be able to have stuff in my hatchback trunk hidden enough that passers by won't think to break in and steal it at a glance. I am not a rapper, I ain't in a limo lol

Best ceramic demonstration yet. I knew it made a difference but never expected a total blowout against dyed film. Plus 70% is nearly clear.

There you go ! Very cool, enjoy your Tint.
Thinking along the same lines here.

Amazing! It's like viewing HDR in your car. You would probably need to go darker than 70 on the windshield if you are sensitive to bright lights coming at you. Doesn't do a whole lot to dim HID and bright LED headlights but cut the glare at bit.
Thanks for sharing.. I'm assuming it's Ceramic right?
At night it doesn't seem to help reduce some headlight glare?
@@FadeToBlackLLC Yeah Ceramic. It reduces the staring into the sun type of effect of bright headlights. LOL For me I really notice the clarity in my field of view more. Passengers don't even realized there's tint on the windshield until I say something.
@@TheWarptOne very much cool. But think about it's awesome stuffed. I'm one of the only shops that even carry it around here. I'm glad you are liking other.
This should be commonplace! Driving toward a rising/setting Sun is soooooooooooooooo much better!
I need to do my truck with a full shield. Possibly for content for the Channel.
BEST explanation I've seen. Thank you for posting, kind sir
I know the sound wasn't the best but thanks for checking it out.
I just got my 2023 corvette done with ceramic tint....70% front windshield and 5% on the 2 sides and back window.
I bet that is nice. I just did a 22 Vette last week. Crazy
Installed Suntek 70% ceramic on the windshield today, your video convinced me. Thanks!
How do you like it?
It's great, really reduced the day time glare. Haven't driven at night yet.
@@stevecarey5918 awesome!
Too much distortion and too many imperfections, having it replaced hoping for a better outcome.
@@stevecarey5918 really? Windshields are tough especially since you are looking trough it constantly.
I just replaced one because the customer thought it was tint and I found out it was his windshield.. A lot of wasted film on my part but he would have never believed me if I said it was his car.
They are tough to deal with.
Been rocking ceramic tints for almost 6 years. My last car didn’t have this and I was being roasted like a turkey with the windows up and my arms were clearly a few shades darker. Ever since I got ceramic tints I’ve never had this issue. Need to get my windshield done now.
Ceramic Tint is good stuff, it's crazy no matter how much I talk about it people still have no idea about it. Full Windshield makes a world of difference.
Before you buy tint for your front window (it”s illegal in all 50 states by the way for a reason, look it up) ask your car insurance company if you are still covered if you hit a pedestrian at night while driving a car with a windshield modification that makes it illegal.
There's always that one guy.
These are things we know and deal with EVERY DAY as a business owner. I don't tell Gun shops not to sell guns to people when they can be illegal as well. It's something that you need to have common sense with like most things in life.
Also this film is clear so you wouldn't even know it's there 70% Ceramic Full Windshield.
Thank you for your comment.
SOLD! Going on my new windshield, with a visor.
Let me know how it works out.
Best demonstration I’ve seen on 70% ceramic window tint😎👍!
Glad it was helpful!
I just got 35% XPEL Prime XR done on my windshield and my eyes are thanking me. No need for sunglasses and LEDs don't hurt my eyes.
Very cool!
70 percent ceramic tint over factory 20 is equal to about 14 percent tint. So basically, you could add a 15% tint on the front side Windows to make them look like they match!
Yes but I'm using this to show how 70% can benefit everyone being applied to a full windshield.
Also 70% Ceramic over the rear on SUVs and Minivans because a lot of older people don't want to go dark but this will help keep the interior cooler.
I do install a lot of 15% Fronts for another shop, but I myself use 20% and most of my customers are happy with it.
Thanks for watching.
I'm confused, why would you point it at the heat and not the tint? I would think you would be standing behind the heat lamp and point at the tint.
I pointed it at the object as if the sun was passing through a window and landing on it. As in your skin or the dash board and heating it up. The Ceramic tint is going to block out heat and less will enter the vehicle that's why I measured after the tint not ON the tint. If that makes sense?
Thats a good selling pitch " when we are young we want Darker tint" in reality 3m tint has different % of shade but all have the same quality of protection. I have 3m tint on all my windows. I have 70% on wield shield 50% on side doors ( driver and passenger) then 20% for my 4 back windows. Its literally light and day in the summer keeping out heat and keeping warm in winter. The front window for 3m for front wield shield is $300 to $500 just for that window fyi. But its worth it because that's where most sun hits. His a good sales person tho. I would said it differently as a sales person myself, I would have said "being younger we just want tinted windows for show but not for quality but the 3m isn't just tint but a item that will improve your vehicle in the summer from the heat staying cool and staying warm in winter". Then break it down further. Because regular tint is useless in my opinion it only provides shade but no heat reduction but 3m provides all around protection with all shades.
You definitely know what your talking about. Yeah as we get more WISER we want things for different reasons. I like to be comfortable and not just be dark anymore ha ha. Sounds like your ride is covered! 👍🏾
How does 3m tint keep a car warm in the winter?
can you do a test of headlights shining against the glass to see the difference from the camera how much the glare is reduced?
Nice video, crazy how much of a difference different films types make. I'm having trouble deciding on my car's tint, I want either 70% or 50% front windshield and front windows tint and 15% back windows tint with 35% back windshield tint (so I can see better backing up at night, that is a concern I have). However I don't know if these combinations make the transition look good or if lighter tint is even necessary for the back windshield tint for when backing up at night. Thanks, would help a lot and I value your expert opinion
When I back up I have a rear camera and I also use my mirrors and not the rear view mirror. I personally like to keep the shades all the same. So you are all over and that drives me a little crazy to be honest.
I personally have 50% on both of my windshields so I’m cool with that.
For sides and rear just do 20% and keep it simple.
A true salesman, had me sold at 2 minutes in
You know I actually never try to upsell someone local when wanting something done. I do think that this is really nice to have on any vehicle. Young or old we all can enjoy the benefits of this film. Thank for watching. I want to film and install it on my truck when I get time.
@@FadeToBlackLLC same, my truck has factory tinted back windows but I want to get some for my front and I'm glad I saw you video before I just grabbed some cheap stuff from Walmart
Been watching your channel and subbed for a while to it and never saw this video I found out the things your saying myself and it’s very accurate if I watched this sooner I would’ve told more people but great video man your a huge inspiration, from a young tinter trying come up like you 🙏🏽
I appreciate the kind words and I’m happy that I was able to help you out. I’m trying to get more Contant on the channel just been busy, but it’s motivating when I hear that I can help out others taking the time to get cotton on my channel. I appreciate you.
I've got to stop purchasing new windshields for my Harley Road King just b'c bugs and sand scar up the plexiglass type windshields.
Would this ceramic tint protect my windshield from scratches made by bugs & grit ? Would I be able to replace the tint from time to time as it gets beat up while saving my windshield ?
Do you have an opinion or suggestion ??
Thanks for your generous consideration,
Sincerely ...........................
Steph
No this won't help a cycle screen. Tint is applied to the inside.
Maybe try some high quality PPF.
It’s a great video you convinced me you told me everything I needed to know. Thank you very much to black.
I've been using Ceramic Film on all my personal vehicles.
If you live somewhere hot as hell. Definitely get 70 ceramic on the windshield. It’s so good that I’m doing it for my girl friends car Monday.
50 is better but in my opinion a bigger gamble. Especially since I regularly travel to California
People have 35 percent on windshield here in California
That's getting a little to dark out there, especially since I'm out in the country.
I don't think you can go wrong with 70% but so many want that color/shade now a days.
what about in the winter when you r trying to defrost the front windhshied won teh ceramic tint block the heat front the heater in the truck so the windshield will get ice all over it thanks
No the heat from the defrost comes from the Vents in the dashboard, that has nothing to do with the tint.
Ceramic film helps keep your interior temp more consistent during winter so your not getting blasted from the sun entering through the glass.
Does 70% percent ceramic tint come in different grades??? Had a tint guy say there are two grades of it . He charge $120 for low grade $220 for high grade. Which one was you testing.....thanks
This was Ceramic. There are different types of Ceramic out there and some do cost more than others.
Find the Brand and look it up.
@@FadeToBlackLLC Okay thanks
The con I see with tinting your windshield is if you had to break the glass to escape your vehicle, especially if you were submerged under the water or on fire.
Even if something hits the glass it will stay in one piece.
Use ceramic to block the heat and a nice shade to reduce the glare. Plenty of reasons to tint its.
Oh and it looks AWESOME!
Is there a noticeable reduction of light coming through the windshield with 70%, or do you need 50% for that. Appreciate it
50% would be better for light reduction.
I want to get this done but I’m not sure how the inspection sticker in my state is gonna work since they scrape it off which might ruin the tint.
I'd talk to the local shops and see how they handle it. I installed some 70% Ceramic Full Windshield this afternoon.
I'm trying to figure out a tint for my cars, im in PA so I think the legal is only 70% on all windows. I'm going to have to go ask at the police station I think because the back glass is already smoked. I'd love to at least do 50 but the heat reduction is my main goal. The eye protection at night too, I've been behind cars now who's tail lights are bright enough to hurt.
Definitely go with a Ceramic film. That stinks you can only go 70% though. At least 50% would be nice. I'd do the whole vehicle including Windshield with the film though to help. Even over the oem smoked glass.
Ceramic tint makes a huge difference. I alway notice when I'm in a car that's not my own.
I agree. Some of my more recent vidoes I've been using some Ceramic and noticing the difference as well with this hot Temps in Wisconsin.
Would the windshield have a rainbow effect with ceramic from lights at night?
No it doesn't. The rainbow look your describing comes from wearing Polarized Sunglasses looking through film.
Lots of info, very useful but the music in the background makes it harder to hear
Yes that's my bad, I have the Pinned comment stating that I messed up this video. I'm thinking about Remixing it when I get a chance.
Would it mess up my insurance policy if I tint the windshield with that 70% ceramic? Kinda heard that if involved in an accident,it will put me automatically at fault..something like that.
With this 70% it's clear no one can even tell it's been applied. I can't see why how you would have any issues with it?
Chances are if you have an accident it wouldn't be related to being able to see out of the windshield.
You should see how many people do 5% on there veh now a days. They can't see but it's on them.
@@FadeToBlackLLC gotcha! Good to know. Thx for the reply and the awesome info 👍🏽
In my state it is illegal to tint the windshield at all. Is it possible to get the benefit of ceramics with a 85-90%? Something that will go unnoticed?
Actually the 70% is pretty unoticable. Check out my Minivan video. Yes there is an 80-90% film that Llumar makes that works for Windshields too.
3M Crystalline CR90
I just got 70 percent I don’t want cop to pull me over
Even the 70 helps to block out the IR and keep it looking Factory!
@@FadeToBlackLLC the pigs I mean cop won’t stop me right
Im thinking of doing a 70% on my windshield in ceramic. I see you're using a panaflex on your sample... im being encouraged to go with Wincos 70 by Madico. i was told it has a slight blue hue.. i haven't seen it in person yet. looks like the panaflex was slight blue. are all the 70% slight blue that you have seen. I really think i prefer clear as opposed to a color.. TIA.. great video BTW
The Panaflex actually looks very clear no blue at all. I've seen some Llumar with a slight blue but when looking through it I think it's good.
Check out my Impala video with the Colored tint, now that is very different looking through it.
@@FadeToBlackLLC I ended up going with 3M Crystalline 70% on the windshield and panoramic roof of my 22’ Lexus ES Ultra Luxury. I’m extremely happy with the result. No blue hue.. and immediately noticeable glare and heat reduction
@@OfficiallyTonyGianni that's awesome, glad it worked out for you! I have Ceramic on my Van as well and 70 is a great way to avoid problems with the law and reduce heat.
Hello. I recently got 3M ceramic IR 50% windshield tint. Last year, however, I got 3M Color Stable on the side and rear windows. As far as heat rejection goes, is it worth removing the color stable (nano carbon) film on the side and rear windows and installing ceramic film on the rest of the car? I have 35% on the front side and 5% on the rear windows. Will I feel a noticeable difference or should I save the money and keep the nano carbon film on the other windows or upgrade them to ceramic like I have on my windshield?
That's a good question. In the past I had Ceramic on the Full Windshield and Carbon on the sides.
If you feel like the sides or rear still feels hotter compared to the Windshield I'd say yes change the sides. If you don't seem to notice I'd leave it.
Driving into the sun with a Dyed Film on my windshield back in the day my hand would be hot. I switched to Ceramic and I could tell my hand on the steering wheel stayed cool.
So go with what you feel. I hope that helps some. Hard to explain with typing.
@@FadeToBlackLLC thanks! I do feel a little warm from the sunlight sometimes through the driver’s side windows but I’m not sure if it’s worth the money/if it’ll truly cool down the car by a major noticeable difference or not if I switch to all ceramic.
@@gregoireansari6651 that's hard to really say. I drive directly into the sun heading west every day so when I switch to Ceramic I could tell right away.
It just depends, a lot of variables but you will have to decide.
If my vehicle has rear privacy glass and I add ceramic with 70% transparency will it still make it darker?
70 has virtually no color to it so it can't really make it darker.
Ceramic tint is the way to go. I drive a lot and had it installed to block uv light on my skin.
All my personal vehicles are done in Ceramic as well.
Really appreciate your videos, you do great work. I'm looking to get into tinting and want to start with one of my own vehicles. What brand of film do you use or reccomend?? Any feedback is appreciated
I don't really talk about brands it's more of a personal preference. I've been using Flexfilm, Tint Club and now SolarFx for various reasons but they are all good films
@@FadeToBlackLLC I'll look into those, I just didn't want to buy low quality film and end up with purple windows or something like that. Keep up the good work, I hope business is good. Thanks for the input.
Have Black Pearl (I was told 70) on my side and back windows, now want to get windshield done. I see there is a NR70 and a NC75. Would one be better than the other for the windshield?
Thanks
Just do the 70% and keep it simple. 75% is even lighter and 70% is already light.
Is it normal to have a cloudy haze on your windshield when driving towards the sun with 70% ceramic tint after it was installed 4 days ago? And will the haze go away, or do I need to get the ceramic tint replacement on my windshield?
Some Ceramic will have a haze at certain angles. It's called Low Angle Haze. It might happen at certain times when the sun hits.
You should really just talk to the shop that installed it if you feel there is an issue.
Thanks.
I just tinted my whole car expect windshield, thinking of getting 70% on windshield even though it's illegal in my state. Because heat comes most from damn windshield
Yep the 70% would help. Most people can't even see it so I think you should be good.
any difference in color shades between Panaflex 70% charcoal VS Black?
I'd ask Ralph he can explain that way better than me.
Does it help significantly with dashboard reflection?
Not the 70, it's virtually clear.. Used as a heat reducer
So I’m sold. But here’s my issue. I live in Colorado. No window tint on the windshield is legal here. Can I get away with a 70% if a cop pulls me over for something else would he/she notice? I can not do glare at night I need something!
I think you'll be good with 70%. Most people don't even notice the film is even on the car.
good point about the sunroof
Thanks for checking it out
Hey man I’m really enjoying the channel. Had a quick question tho. I have 3% tint on my rear windows and the front have 15%. I wanted to get my windshield tinted since it gets really hot. I wanted to go with the ceramic film but I also wanted some tint on the windshield. What would look the best for privacy but not have me on alert for the feds. I’m looking for a not really visible look through the windshield but also not something super dark. Preciate it brotha!
Thank you for watching. I'd do 50% on the windshield in Ceramic. A nice light smoke and if you open up the sunroof it let the windows down it will look lighter when you need it to. I have more videos coming up with 50% full windshield content, just need time to get them up.
Rainbow effect after 70 % windshield tint install normal?
If you wear Polarized sunglasses you will definitely notice that. Some films might have more of that look than others. The films I use don’t show that.
Except it takes away from the clarity. Spring time sucks but summers in CA makes up for it.
I’ve never had anyone complain about clarity. People love having their windshield tinted. If it cracks and gets replaced they come right back to have new tint installed.
Fade to Black! Great Name!
Thank you!
I want to get my windshield tinted but I’m not sure if i should get 70% or 50%. What do you recommend? I’m in Florida so the sun is VIOLENT down here and my area is pretty lenient on tint laws
I'd probably do 50% Ceramic so it has some color and will help block out 50% of the light.
Fade To Black LLC thanks for the feed back!! :)
I’m debating on the % I should get.. 5% all around & 70% on the windshield OR 5% rear, 15% front & 45% windshield I want the complete privacy plus heat rejection but am a little sketchy with the 5% on the front two windows because of driving at night.. but during the day I don’t want people to see in so that’s why I’d do 45% on the windshield so it’d help but idk
I'd suggest the 15% on the fronts just so you can see at night. You'll need to roll down your window to see at night with the 5%.
Nice vid.
Question for you.
I have formula one ceramic tints on all of my cars (including 50 on the windshield). I wanted to get ceramic on my moonroof/sunroof but I was told that it is not advisable as ceramic absorbs heat. I should at least use metallic tint on my moonroof/sunroof since metallic reflects heat and sun since the roof is always hit by sunlight. Is it true? Any thoughts? Thank you!
Some do say it's not good to tint sunroofs. It's crazy I think just did one today with Ceramic. I've never had any issues yet with sunroof. Here in Wisconsin we have have cloudy skies half of the year though.
I say if you really want it done, have them do it and them sign off for no responsibility.
@@FadeToBlackLLC Thank you for your feedback. Personally I think it is a good idea to tint sunroof. I have seen a lot of Tesla owners doing it on their panoramic rood. It is hard to get someone to tint sunroof but I did find a couple willing and they both said that it is better to use non ceramic for those. They did have the same reasoning. I do live in Florida so it can be quite hot on the sunroof.
What about inspection sticker , won’t they cut the tint when you go to get the inspection done?
We don't have inspection stickers thankfully!
Debating on 50% or 70% llumar windshield. Can’t decide. I night time drive a lot. I have good vision. What would u recommend ?
I think you'll be good with 50%. Thanks
@@FadeToBlackLLC will 50% attract attention from the police? I have 35% on all other windows.
@@ItsCreates well you will have tint where your not supposed to. So I can't say either way? Some have good luck and some people don't. No way to know if you'll attract more attention?
How would a 65%-50% ceramic over 70%
70% is virtually clear so what color you put on it will look pretty close to THAT color.
If you install 70% over rear Privacy Glass like my latest video you won't notice it get any darker. Not enough to tell a difference.
Woah! Thanks for explaining so well. Subscribed!
Hey I appreciate it. I have to work on the music, that one was a little off but at least you understand what I was trying to say. Still learning how to give a presentation. Thanks for watching.
I just got a 40 percent ceramic tint done on my windshield today. I have 20 percent all around my car. Is there any chance it will get darker?
You mean like over time will your current tent that get darker ?
No
If you want darker you have to get darker installed
No it won't get any darker like Reedith said. If it's not dark enough for you then add another shade to make it darker. Thanks for watching.
Good one.....Can anyone let me know how to recognize the original 70% llumar flim other than the llumar printing on the flim..
No clue, I replace a lot of film and have NO idea what brand it is. Also the name on the film usually wears off after a while.
I am thinking of doing 50% ceramic tint on the windsheild. Will I have any problem seeing while driving at night?
Thank you!
I can't guarantee you will or not. I don't know where you live or drive the most? I usually Suggest 50% to all my customers because most people can see out of it. It's different when most people have dark windows on the rest of the vehicle.
I'd rather be safe than sorry.
I also have a ton of 50% Full Windshield vidoes on here.
@@FadeToBlackLLC I live in NYC and I mostly drive at night. The reason I am thinking of tinting my windsheild because I want it to be cool insidr and most important I want to avoid the glare from the sun which kinda blinds me in the day time. Will do 70% block the glare from the sun?
@@shujayethossain6554 70% won't block much glare. You'll need at least 50%. If you have street lights around you'll be fine. I live in the country and I can still see fine at night with 50%.

I have a whole bunch of vidoes in my back window Playlist. I use a light and also White Line Tape from Mytintstuff.com
Ok thank u happy holidays
Great demo! Question: Does this 70% ceramic interfere with polarized sunglasses, radar/laser protection, etc?
It won't interfere with electronics but honestly I don't remember if Polarized glasses look wierd through it because I don't wear them. Some film like Llumar looks rainbowish right out of the box and that will look weird but I don't think the 70% does if I remember correctly.

Will this help with my light sensitivity?? I cant stand peoples LED lights at the night time
Some people say that it does help with glare at night from headlights.
It will help, but. Also need to have an idea on what darkness you use. I have 50% on my windshield, and it helps with the glare a lot. It however does not fully get rid of it though
I love all of your videos! can you do a video about how much tint (% & length) a new tinter should buy if starting own business? Also would love a price breakdown of what to charge customers!!! Thank you!
I have a video here based on roll sizes.. You have to look through my videos.
I don't post or talk prices, they are different all over the country based on the market and brands used. Call around to the local shops and ask for the popular install prices and that will help you know what to charge. Stay close to them and don't undercut. You loose money and it also brings down the market prices.
I have regular tint and want ceramic, would it make sense to layer on top of the old tint? Also does the clear ceramic come in different percentages?
Talk to your local tint shop and see what they want to do. You can layer tint.
Clear Ceramic is clear shades, like 70, 80 and I've seen 90. I prefer 70 to give some filter of light.
what about the state inspection stickers? do they mess up the tints on the front windshield?
Oh man you said Tints, that's like scratching a chalkboard 🤣🤣🤣
We don't have Inspection stickers in Wisconsin if you look any of my Windshield videos they don't have them.
I've heard of people laminating them and sticking them to the tint but I'm not sure.
The Nano tint is the best ceramic tint would've dropped that temp to the low 20s easy!
For some reason Ceramic is now getting pretty popular. I won't confuse them with another level of Ceramic. Most just like the basic Ceramic I've been using now.
What does the year have anything to do with it?
This video was uploaded over a year ago. Some including myself like to plan out things on my vehicles for the upcoming year. There have been advancements in the Technology of window films that people can consider doing in the future.
Thats why I said 2020 when it was upload last time if that makes sense?

Check out Flexfilm but I also have a buddy that tints in So Cal that could get that done for you. I'll post back with his info.

I think I need something like this as I suffer from severe ight sensitivity, that means UV lights, the new Ledheadight, and even Florescent lights are quite bothersome to my eyes. Can I still get a dark tinted visor strip along with the clear 70° ceramic?
Yes I put Visor strips over Full windshields all the time.
Does the 70% stop glare from the dashboard?
Depends on the quality of film you use. Cheaper films tend to have more glare. Higher quality like Ceramic helps prevent the glare
This won't block out a ton of glare, it's mostly to help reduce heat without having to worry about going dark and the Law looking at you.
Where’s a good place to buy tint?
Tint Club or Flexfilm online. 👍🏾
Does this make the view grainy or distortion at night? I heard it does
No not at all. You wouldn't even know it's there by looking through it.
Depends on who's doing it and what you pay for. I live in a ghetto block and I see these wack ass teens put them on all the time. And it's ugly. They got bubbles and it's not even done correctly. If the person knows where they're doing ( Professionals) you will never have a problem.
@@khmerbraveheart I agree.. They probably didn't pay the money for a good quality film. I provide a Lifetime Warranty so I need a quality product to use.
Do you install carbon ceramic tint or dyed ceramic tint?
I install Carbon and Ceramic. Some of the Gen 4 Dyed stuff is a good product. I just found what works best for my Market and pricing. Some of the Dyed colors I don't care for as much either. I like a dark black looking film.
What brand of ceramic tint do you recommend?
Try to some Tint Club.
I have 70% Suntek CXP on my windshield, but it's noticably milky. I will install Global QDP ceramic sometime soon.
I'm guessing that film has the Low Angle Haze that people talk about with some Ceramics? I've been using Panaflex 70% with no issues. Very clear film.
Hopefully you get some clear film installed on there soon.
@@FadeToBlackLLC mmm yeah but Suntek CXP isn't ceramic, weird it's milky looking when the sun hits it.
I dont notice it after a while, but when I first put it on I was a bit dissapointed. It does cut a good amount of heat though. 44% TSER if that's anything to go by.
Should i get my front windshield tinted also? I have heard only doing a strip or the entire thing?
Times have changed. I do a windshield at least once a week. Just did two this week. Both of our main vehicles have full windshields and also the RV on this channel. It's a popular thing up here.
@@FadeToBlackLLC But what about the strip only? I have been told to either do the entire windshield or nothing at all. Why not the strip, does it peel off or something?
The temperature will go up with time so what's the benefit outside protection of the dash? Every tint joint has one of those heat boxes to upsale you the ceramic film. Thanks
I try to share the ideas off keeping the car cooler with Ceramic while your in the vehicle more do that just sitting in a parking lot all day.
Driving your vehicle towards the sun on a road hot day Ceramic will help keep the car cooler m
Yes there are always certain types of situations you'll have to deal with. It's not perfect but it helps.
I'm driving my truck to the West with Ceramic on the fronts and no heat is getting through the film and keeping me more comfortable.
My windshield on the truck isn't tinted and I can feel the heat on my hand driving coming through.
Great demonstration!!!! This made up my mind.
How bout 55% ceramic. Will it be too dark?
I can't speak for everyone else I know can only see out of my eyes but I think in the 50s is good.
How do you keep from creasing it when installing it. The stuff I use is super thick and doesn't install without putting small creases
Also what product line do you use and what is the mill thickness?
I try to use more heat and less Card when shrinking... Check out my Shrink Slow video.. Using the heat to let the film mold shrinks it a lot better. Also maybe don't use the heat all the way up so it's not as hot.
I have no problem shrinking it 22 year tint veteran. I use Avery Dennison 75% windshield film. Fairly new to the ceramic thing. It's so thick it doesn't "flow" like the thinner film for side and back glass. Only get small creases when installing it, even with 2 people. And back rolling is not always an option in brand new cars. Do you spend the extra hour to dismantle the giant plastics and take off the mirror?
Also. I live in the middle of Kansas. A town of about 10k things take longer here to be accepted or "take off " tried clear shield about 8 year's ago and it was a flop
And yes I love stretching the 75% IR film. You can get it to hot and it turns into rubber and gets sticky. Slow and low is the key. Or stretch it hot and then wait a few seconds before using the card.
informative, but the music is too loud. your voice and the music need more separation
Yep, I've been told that a few times about this video in these comments. Something I'm working on moving forward. Thanks for watching.
What i want from a tint is to make it less of a greenhouse and to be able to have stuff in my hatchback trunk hidden enough that passers by won't think to break in and steal it at a glance. I am not a rapper, I ain't in a limo lol
That's a really good reason, people can't take what they can't see. Check out the Fishbowl video I just uploaded.
Can't find anyone to do windshield at all, might have to diy
Give it a shot at least you tried.
Great video. Alot of things I never thought of like the tint on sunroof and over factory for keeping car cool. Thanks
Most people always think dark, but there are other reasons to use window film. Thanks for watching.
Just remove it before your court date

Good informative video. Over 30 degrees lower than dyed limo, what a difference.
Sorry about the audio but you definitely get the idea of what Ceramic film can do.
