    The must requested video! Here is the tint i left out of my comparison video! 50% Window Tint! We had a family friend want his windows tinted and he wanted legal tint on his front 2 windows which in ohio is 50%! IMO 50% tint is almost useless!! Its very light and ALMOST has no effect. Dont get me wrong there is a difference between 50% and no tint but definitely has no vision blocking attributes at all.

    All about what you're after. Privacy vs Protection. Some of the new 50% ceramics have some pretty impressive, UV, IR, TSER numbers - and night visibility is better than with the darker tints. I really don't care who sees me. And I don't want LAPD getting jumpy due to blacked out windows. A friend just did his new Sportwagen in 70%, (CA Legal limit for fronts) and it looks sharp with that off-white silver paint. That car stays surprisingly cool in 95-100º heat. To each his own - you Ohio guys are O.G. Thanks for the video.

      Ceramic is an awesome film to help block heat. I think a classy install of a light tint in Ceramic still looks nice and helps protect you and the cars interior

  • @davidjohnkess02

    50% is a great film and has a lot of benefits, most block out 99% harmful UV rays and about 20%-30% heat reduction. No it's not a privacy film like 20% and lower but it has a place in the tinting world. So no it's not useless!

    I went with 15% all around on my car. And I’m glad I did. Had 50% front, 35% rear sides and 15 back window and hated it, as sometimes it didn’t look tinted at all from the sides on a sunny day. With my light interior, the 15% came out perfect. I knew even with the 35% front, I wouldn’t be happy then I am now so I took the risk. You can still see through and seeing out is perfect for me as well day and night. Also I believe if you don’t drive like a idiot, you will be fine with the cops. Don’t give them a reason to pull you over then have them ticket you for tint as well. Drive the speed limit and obey the traffic laws and you will be good. Privacy and comfort over everything!!

    @Siberius- Рік тому +2

    I'm thinking 50% or maybe 40% as a middle-ground is possible.
    Some people don't like how dark even 35% is at night time. During the day 35% noticeably changes the colour of stuff out side to look less vivid and bright and nice... plus I'll be wearing sunglasses, so I don't want a darker tint making things too dark with sunglasses, since currently with no tint, sunglasses can sometimes already make things a bit too dark for my liking during certain weather.
    I also like that when looking out, there isn't a very clear discrepancy between the windshield and the side windows. I like the consistency.
    Then it's just more subtle, which is especially nice on a shitty car one doesn't care about lol. The darker tints are almost like a statement, like it's very obvious that ya got your car windows tinted like a cool fella with what they feel is a cool car, instead of it just being like, maybe darker factory windows. This isn't a very important point, I don't think this should stop anyone from doing what they wanna do.
    50% is still providing some privacy over clear (on camera). Can't seem to see facial features, you can see the person, but not the details. I don't care (or want) to be completely concealed in the darkness like it's an FBI vehicle, I just don't want people to be able to like, make direct eye-contact with me lol.
    Then other than that, the main reason I want tint, is so as I can have a UV film on the windows to block over 99% of UVA. Even if it had zero tint, I'd still get the UV film.

  • @qh6888
    @qh6888 4 роки тому +2

  • @luhryan8185
    @luhryan8185 2 роки тому

    Honestly 50% isn’t completely useless, but it would be a waste of money. My previous car has 22% back half and 50% front 2. Not the best. Plus it had almost a white interior so on them sunny days, it appears almost as if there was no tint. The perks is visibility is pretty good day n night. On my current car, I’m running 5% back half, 15% front, 45% shield, and it’s been serving my privacy as well as practicality since it’s drivable at night (I’m kinda just used to it) while providing privacy day and night. I chose ceramic so it would reject heat for the entire black interior. Honestly 2 popular tint combos is 15s all around OR 35% front half, 5% back half. These 2 combos are nice. IMO the setup I’m running is nice and I’m rlly happy with it. It’s basically providing a blacked out look while still maintaining drivable visibility on the front half at night. The dark tints helps at night mostly when ppl high beam from the back. 5% does a fantastic job for that and 15% does a good job.

    Little effect??? The only thing you wont gain is privacy and superior glare reduction however, 50% "tint" as you call it will still keep out 99% UV rays and if you are using a quality film it should reject somewhere around 40% heat. 50% "tint" should reduce the glare by half. If the glass should break another great feature of having any window film is that it will keep the glass somewhat together should it break or become shattered. Any film is better than no film...SMH

      I agree 100%. I got 50% on my front windows and 20% in the back on a 2016 black Honda Accord EX. now I would love to have gone 20% all the way around but I can't afford to get harassed by the police. So I kept it legal cuz I'm from Cleveland Ohio. But the 50% like you're saying still blocks out UV rays and I got a high performance quality film which blocks out at least 50% of the heat. Plus I drive more at night than the daytime and trying to see out of something as dark is 5% out your rear-view mirror is almost impossible. I have 20% in the back and at times if the streets are not well lit up it is not easy to see out that back window. That's why I thank God for The Back-up Camera! Lol.

      I would not consider tinting more than 50% on the side windows (front and back) and the rear window.
      You need to look through the side windows to look through the side mirrors so tint will effect your rear view, not just the curb.
      And you also need to look through the rear view mirror through the rear window.
      If you drive in big cities at night, like myself in Bangkok with scooters on allsides overtaking and undertaking and pulling out, you need good vision.
      You say that you cannot see the point in puting film/tint on windows of only 50% however:
      Any tint film will prevent UV A and B.
      UV B gives you sun burn
      UV A gives you skin cancer

You know there are people with illegal tint like myself who can actually see at night and have enough common sense to roll my windows down if I can’t see in low lit areas or when I’m parking and reversing right? Lol the only thing you need to worry about with illegal tint is your windows at night and to fix that you just roll them down. It general really is not hard at all to see at night though.

    5% tint is totally useless. When I had 5% it was difficult to se out of at night and it didn’t provide anymore UV protection; and It makes the car look tacky as hell.

      You can leave them on but if you do some tint shops will cut corners and only put the tint up to the weather stripping this leads to possible pealing and light gaps, you can also cut it longer and tuck it but also can introduce dirt into the mix, removing the panels to remove the weather stripping allows for easier, cleaner install.
