I freaking love this stuff. It was so easy to install. This video helped a lot. I installed it on my back windows. One side is so clear but the other side and the rear window are so blurry. I put it where the sun hits it the most so we’ll see how it looks in a few days
Thank you for the lind words. It should clear up after sitting in the sun. If not, I would just peel off the part that looks blurry and clean the window good. Then re-install it like I did in the video. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply. Have yourself a blessed day my friend😁🙏

Great question. You can slightly peel it back and spray some soapy water on it and wipe off the dust, then reinstall with the same process as shown in the video. Its not hard. Also remember the best offense is a strong defense, so make sure to get all dust out and install it in an area that has the least possible of foreign material getting blown on your tint and causing headaches. Great question my friend. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply. Happy Holidays and have a blessed day🙏😎
@@moyalee92 Great question. You will need 3 total. 1 roll for the left side, 1 roll for the right and 1 roll for the rear. You can always play it safe and buy 4 and if you don’t need it, either keep it for future use or return it. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😎🙏

Great question, its not much. Maybe a teaspoon. It doesn’t take much. Great question. Sorry for the late reply, thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
I'm heavily considering this for my vehicle but I saw that you typically cut it about a half inch away from the top of the window. Is it because the top of the window will cause friction and possibly lift the tint?
It's exactly that, but you're supposed to do it no matter what tint you use.... If you don't cut the half inch, it will for sure crease your tint once your window is all the way up...
Yes you are absolutely right. That 1/2 inch fits under the rubber trim and you don’t notice it when you have your window rolled up all the way. Great question. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day. Sorry for the late reply😁🙏
I would recommend 3 rolls. 1 roll for each side of the car and one for the rear window. For the rear window, it’s possible that it won’t reach all the way to the bottom but you hardly notice it from the inside or outside. Ive had no problem with it. It just depends what you desire. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day. Sorry for the late reply😁🙏
I park mine in the shade. It will definitely last longer in the shade than being beaten up by the sun all day. Especially in the summer. It will lose a little hue but will still work just fine. Mine is still going strong. But it fades away too much just buy another roll or rolls and do it again. You are saving a bunch of moolah. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏

@ i think i might just use this one instead of trying the ceramic then seems to have no issues after all these years. Please let me know if you try out the ceramic tint! Thank you and happy holidays my friend.
@ You can’t go wrong using this one. I have had no issues. I will look into trying out the ceramic tint, thank you. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
Hello Jake, yes it will. I will be making a video on that as soon as I can. I was able to install on the rear window with no issue. It will be about 4 inches short. It does not cover the entire rear window completely but to me its hardly noticeable. Thank you for watching homie and have a blessed day😁😎✌️
Hey there trrgamer. Thank you very much. The instructions actually say it will take 1 week for the blurriness to go away. Ive never had to wait that long. My suggestion would be to keep the vehicle in the sun if possible. The heat seems to smooth things out a bit in 3-4 days. I haven’t tried a heat gun or hair dryer to speed the process but that would be my next guess. Just warm the glass from the outside if you plan on doing that. Also don’t get it too hot or keep it one area for very long. I would recommend sticking with the sun method and a little patience😁. Thank you for watching and have a blessed night 😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIYhey man, I recently installed the 20% on my front windows, and the blurryness went away a tiny bit after a day or so, but is still really noticeable a week and a half later. it has been a little rainy recently, could that be the issue?
@@outdoorsadventures3722 No I dont think so. Just to go through a few checkpoints. Both sides of the glass should be clean before installing it. The glass on the outside can be cleaned after installation. Sometimes dried soap is left behind. If you are installing it on fresh glass with no tint then you shouldn’t have an issue. If you install it on top of tinted glass, make sure the previous tint is in good condition or you will see the defects of the original tint (if it had it). The static cling tint wont be perfectly clear like traditional tint but you will be able to see everything you need to see. If its still blurry, remove the tint and make sure everything is clean and just squeegee it back on. Ive only had an issue with the blurriness still around (and I mean blurry) when I installed it over existing tint that was not in the best condition and was a little dirty with leftover dry soapy water from continuously trying to re-apply it on the rear window. Make sure there is no other substance in the spray bottle when mixing your soapy water. I had some interior gloss spray in mine and it would not adhere right due it to being oily. Great thing about it is that you can remove it and re-install it. I hope this helps brother.
@@outdoorsadventures3722 ok cool. Yea just re-install it and make sure the window is clean. Like I said it won’t be perfectly crystal clear but you can make what you need to make when driving.
Got a question If I install this over my existing tint, will the blurriness take longer to go away since there is tint blocking some sunlight from reaching the static cling? Will the blurriness go away at all?
Thats a great question. If you plan on installing it over existing tint, there shouldn’t be an issue of it sticking. The heat is what helps it stick but I would recommend removing the old tint and starting fresh. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
No sir I haven’t. Not sure if local laws would permit that and not sure if it would be safe. I know sometimes I have to roll my windows down at night to see🤣Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
🙏🤣Thats awesome! I saved myself about the same as well🤣🤣🤣Thank you for the kind words and I am happy I could save you a little money. Have a blessed day 😁😎🙏
Great video 💯🔥 I plan on doing this cause of your video I had questions tho I noticed the tint looks kinda purple, I couldn’t tell in the video but does the tint give the window a purple hue when looking out? If so does the purple color eventually go away? And is it possible to take off the tint and clean it and reinstall if contaminates get on it and are visible after installing it?
Thank you very much for the comment. Yes the tint does have a purple blue hue to it. Its a light hue & It does not go away. It’s mostly noticeable with the 20% tint. 5% doesn’t have much of a purple blue hue to it. The static cling tint isn’t 100% clear. Its more like 90% but I have no issue with it & You can see what you need to see when driving. Yes you can remove the tint and re-install it if contaminates are found underneath with no issue. These are a few of the pro’s and cons. The biggest pro is that its inexpensive, quick & easy installation, can be removed with no glue residue and transferred to other vehicles (assuming the window is the same size or smaller), and won’t stick to itself like traditional glue tint. . Cons,- its not perfectly clear more like 90%, slight blue hue to it and thats pretty much it. It just depends on what you’re looking for. Thank you very much for your question and let me know if you have anymore. Im working on the next video, how to tint the rear window by yourself or with a buddy. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day 😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY I was trying to install this today. The tint keeps peeling off at the bottom when the windows are rolled down. Is there any way to stop this from happening?
@@invincible8516 Most of the time you get lucky and can roll the window down with out the tint getting caught up. I would give it at least 30 mins sitting in the sun and it should be fine. Might still be some soapy water near the edge which is not letting the tint stick to the window. Sometimes that happens to me. I just make sure all the soapy water is gone as much as possible. Let me know if you have anymore questions brother
Thats a great question, that I am not sure of. I would search for static cling window tint colors and see what comes up. It would be cool if they do. Thank you for watching my fiend, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😎🙏
Well I’m sold. I’ve wanted tint but worried about getting stopped and having to remove it then being on the hole for expensive tint. This looks cheap enough and easy to remove that I wouldn’t feel bad
Great question my friend. I made a video on how to install static cling tint for the rear window. You wont meed a heat gun. ua-cam.com/video/5eBCrgIL0c4/v-deo.htmlsi=iaMOdRFiG2kV3dz- Sorry for the late reply🙏 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Great question, nope not at all, assuming it is installed correctly which is very easy. Ive been using it for years and never had an issue. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
You can definitely try but for My next video, I will be installing it on a curved rear window. It went on without an issue. Stay tuned. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
Sorry for the very late reply. What did you end up doing? If you still have it on and its still foggy, I would remove it and re-install it (for future reference) I have had that issue once or twice, and I have installed that tint on a lot of windows. It could be that the section of tint you installed is defective unfortunately. Fortunately it is easy to remove and still costs less to buy another roll of tint compared to getting it professionally installed. Again, I am sorry for the late reply, it has been a rough last couple of months. Thank you for your comment and for watching. Have a blessed day😁😎🙏
Thats crazy my friend. Not sure if I mentioned in the video but try leaving the car out in the sun and it should clear up. Ive done this on multiple vehicles and have never had an issue. Hope this helps my friend. Thank you for watching , sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day🙏😎
Thats a great question. I think it will work but if your taillights have curves to them, a car wash may get underneath the tint and come off slightly. Of course im just guessing. I say give it a shot. I may have some extra tint laying around. Ill see if I can try it out and see what happens. Thank you for your question and have a blessed day 😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY thanks for the reply. I think ill give it a go. Going 70% on my Tesla Model 3 headlights and 50% on the tail lights. Ill squeegee it good and let it cure for a few days before washing it. Im in Arizona so it should bond pretty well. Wish me luck bro.
@@rudyomic21 Awesome brother. Yes hive it a shot and see what happens. Being in Arizona it will definitely cure quick. I would say just a few hours. Nice car homie. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
I just installed this Gila Cling Tint on my car and MAN is it blurry. Did I use the wrong soap or what? Do you know the reasoning as to why it's blurry at first then turns out clear in a couple days (hopefully)? I'm curious if taking a heat gun to it would speed up the process. I feel like I am a hazard on the road with how blurry it is
Great question. Yes at first it will a tad blurry bur it will clear up after a couple of days from exposure to the sun. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😃🙏
For the a standard vehicle you need 3 rolls. 1 for the front windows, 1 for the back windows and 1 for the rear window. The rear window is about 4 inches short from the bottom but is hardly noticeable. Thank you for your question and let me know if you need anything else. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️I will be making a video shortly on how to tint the rear window by yourself or with a buddy.
Did you use black magic? If so I haven’t had good luck with it. But tips that I can recommend is to 1) Make sure the glass is clean on both sides 2) Clean the tint right before you install it on the other side of the glass. The tint may have dried up soapy water on it. 3) Park the vehicle in the sun. It seems to relax the tint and clear it up. Now it will not be perfectly clear like traditional tint but will be close to it. Whenever I have blurriness issues,it’s because of the top reasons. Great thing is, is that you can peel it right off and re-install it. Let me know if you have any more questions. I will do a comparison one of these days of the Gila, black magic and there was one called Green film on Amazon that someone recommended. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎✌️
@@fadededgeofficial3714 Yea it wont be perfectly clear like professional tint but you see what you need to see when driving. It’s a bit of the trade off when doing it yourself. I love it and haven’t had any issues. Hope it works out for you. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
It usually takes a few days out being in the sun. If it is still blurry you may need to let it sit for a little bit longer or peel it back and clean the window, spray the soapy water and make sure to get all the liquid out with a squeegee. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁

Hello Pyro, there are no issues if rainy or bad weather. The tint at first is placed on the outside to trace the window so you can install it in the inside. So it will not be exposed to the elements at all. Thank you for your question and have a blessed day 😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY sorry I didn't explain myself, what I meant is does it affect your visibility during bad weather conditions because I know of some Tints that don't let you see
@@PyroTallahassee ahh I got you now. It would be the same as having no tint at all driving through bad weather. Ive driven through terrible rain where I couldn’t see, regardless if there was tint or not. The only I have is if you purchase the 5% tint or lower, it will be difficult to see at night. I do have to roll the window down to see sometimes at night. Bad weather is no issue, assuming its not a strong downpour 🤣 Thank you for clarifying Pyro
Good video but that why you come to shop I saw your cuts pretty bad but I give u props and 20% over 20% drop it down to 5% keep up the cool Videos man thank you for sharing
🤣you should be ok but I always recommend to follow local laws. Down here in Houston, the cops don’t care a bit🤣Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😎🙏
Great question. It definitely depends on the percentage of tint you choose. I have 5% tint on my work truck and man it sure is dark🤣 Driving at night can be a challenge and have to roll my window down a bunch of times just to make sure I don’t hit something 🤣. But during the day its nice and clear. Thank you for watching and for your comment. Have a blessed day😎🙏
Whats up homie. Go to amazon and search Gila Static Cling Window tint. Then choose the percent of tint you want. I would recommend 5% for the back and 20% for the front. Check local laws. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎

great eye my friend. I did a little research and If you put 20% tint on top of 20% tint, the resulting tint would be considered a 4% tint because you need to multiply the percentages together; 0.2 (20%) x 0.2 (20%) = 0.04 (4%). Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply. Happy Holidays and have a blessed day🙏😎
This is for people that just don’t care what it looks like, how it performs or if they damage their vehicle in the process. If you want it to look good, look clear, actually block heat, and not damage your vehicle, take your vehicle to a reputable tint shop.

Hey there trrgamer. Thank you very much. The instructions actually say it will take 1 week for the blurriness to go away. Ive never had to wait that long. My suggestion would be to keep the vehicle in the sun if possible. The heat seems to smooth things out a bit in 3-4 days. I haven’t tried a heat gun or hair dryer to speed the process but that would be my next guess. Just warm the glass from the outside if you plan on doing that. Also don’t get it too hot or keep it one area for very long. I would recommend sticking with the sun method and a little patience😁. Thank you for watching and have a blessed night 😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIYhey man, I recently installed the 20% on my front windows, and the blurryness went away a tiny bit after a day or so, but is still really noticeable a week and a half later. it has been a little rainy recently, could that be the issue?
@@outdoorsadventures3722 No I dont think so. Just to go through a few checkpoints. Both sides of the glass should be clean before installing it. The glass on the outside can be cleaned after installation. Sometimes dried soap is left behind. If you are installing it on fresh glass with no tint then you shouldn’t have an issue. If you install it on top of tinted glass, make sure the previous tint is in good condition or you will see the defects of the original tint (if it had it). The static cling tint wont be perfectly clear like traditional tint but you will be able to see everything you need to see. If its still blurry, remove the tint and make sure everything is clean and just squeegee it back on. Ive only had an issue with the blurriness still around (and I mean blurry) when I installed it over existing tint that was not in the best condition and was a little dirty with leftover dry soapy water from continuously trying to re-apply it on the rear window. Make sure there is no other substance in the spray bottle when mixing your soapy water. I had some interior gloss spray in mine and it would not adhere right due it to being oily. Great thing about it is that you can remove it and re-install it. I hope this helps brother.
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY thanks for the tips man, I may try reinstalling one side. Also there was no tint previously.
@@outdoorsadventures3722 ok cool. Yea just re-install it and make sure the window is clean. Like I said it won’t be perfectly crystal clear but you can make what you need to make when driving.
Got a question
If I install this over my existing tint, will the blurriness take longer to go away since there is tint blocking some sunlight from reaching the static cling? Will the blurriness go away at all?
Thats a great question. If you plan on installing it over existing tint, there shouldn’t be an issue of it sticking. The heat is what helps it stick but I would recommend removing the old tint and starting fresh. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁🙏
I bought two boxes of the 5% for a double 5 window tint at the front. Have you tried it as a whole windshield tint?
No sir I haven’t. Not sure if local laws would permit that and not sure if it would be safe. I know sometimes I have to roll my windows down at night to see🤣Thank you for watching and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
@FunkyColdMedinaDIY 👍
Double 5 gets you 0.5 VLT aka less than 1% tint. That's about 25x darker than 5% limo tint.
@johndc2998 yyep that's how dark the back windows are on my Jeep Grand Cherokee
@ absolutely right my friend.
This just saved me over 250$ at my local tint shop!! Lol
🙏🤣Thats awesome! I saved myself about the same as well🤣🤣🤣Thank you for the kind words and I am happy I could save you a little money. Have a blessed day 😁😎🙏
You mean local cartel shop 😅?
lmao bet you tint looks like crap
So we got russian cartel caucasion cartel afgan cartel african columbian cartel woa wow you kind absurdity asbuslutly suprises me @@Breezyaon1
Great video 💯🔥 I plan on doing this cause of your video
I had questions tho
I noticed the tint looks kinda purple, I couldn’t tell in the video but does the tint give the window a purple hue when looking out? If so does the purple color eventually go away?
And is it possible to take off the tint and clean it and reinstall if contaminates get on it and are visible after installing it?
Thank you very much for the comment. Yes the tint does have a purple blue hue to it. Its a light hue & It does not go away. It’s mostly noticeable with the 20% tint. 5% doesn’t have much of a purple blue hue to it. The static cling tint isn’t 100% clear. Its more like 90% but I have no issue with it & You can see what you need to see when driving. Yes you can remove the tint and re-install it if contaminates are found underneath with no issue. These are a few of the pro’s and cons. The biggest pro is that its inexpensive, quick & easy installation, can be removed with no glue residue and transferred to other vehicles (assuming the window is the same size or smaller), and won’t stick to itself like traditional glue tint. . Cons,- its not perfectly clear more like 90%, slight blue hue to it and thats pretty much it. It just depends on what you’re looking for. Thank you very much for your question and let me know if you have anymore. Im working on the next video, how to tint the rear window by yourself or with a buddy. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day 😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY I was trying to install this today. The tint keeps peeling off at the bottom when the windows are rolled down. Is there any way to stop this from happening?
@@invincible8516 Most of the time you get lucky and can roll the window down with out the tint getting caught up. I would give it at least 30 mins sitting in the sun and it should be fine. Might still be some soapy water near the edge which is not letting the tint stick to the window. Sometimes that happens to me. I just make sure all the soapy water is gone as much as possible. Let me know if you have anymore questions brother
Do these come in other colors???
Thats a great question, that I am not sure of. I would search for static cling window tint colors and see what comes up. It would be cool if they do. Thank you for watching my fiend, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😎🙏
Well I’m sold. I’ve wanted tint but worried about getting stopped and having to remove it then being on the hole for expensive tint. This looks cheap enough and easy to remove that I wouldn’t feel bad
You are 100% right my friend. Its so easy to do and will save a good amount of money. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Did you get it?
Can you do a video for just the front windshield visor
I will put that on list my friend. Thank you for the suggestion. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
You’re funk cold bro
🤣🤣🤣Hell yea! Thanks homie and thank you for watching. Have a blessed day 😁😎✌️
Nice. But how about on a back car window where normally they have to shrink with a heat gun the real tint.
Great question my friend. I made a video on how to install static cling tint for the rear window. You wont meed a heat gun. ua-cam.com/video/5eBCrgIL0c4/v-deo.htmlsi=iaMOdRFiG2kV3dz- Sorry for the late reply🙏 Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Does it get stuck when rolling window down ?
Great question, nope not at all, assuming it is installed correctly which is very easy. Ive been using it for years and never had an issue. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day😁🙏
Do you think this film can be heat shrunk for a curved window?
You can definitely try but for My next video, I will be installing it on a curved rear window. It went on without an issue. Stay tuned. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY when will you have that video out?
@@executiveinvestments In a few days. I have a busy weekend coming so I will do my best to get it as soon as I can. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY thanks. You too!!
It should suppost to stay mine on back windshield just came off and i dnt see any difference
I just installed it and it’s been 3 days now and it’s still foggy, will it clear up by then ?
Sorry for the very late reply. What did you end up doing? If you still have it on and its still foggy, I would remove it and re-install it (for future reference) I have had that issue once or twice, and I have installed that tint on a lot of windows. It could be that the section of tint you installed is defective unfortunately. Fortunately it is easy to remove and still costs less to buy another roll of tint compared to getting it professionally installed. Again, I am sorry for the late reply, it has been a rough last couple of months. Thank you for your comment and for watching. Have a blessed day😁😎🙏
I did this about 6 days ago and my my windows are blurry I did everything step by step I don’t understand
Thats crazy my friend. Not sure if I mentioned in the video but try leaving the car out in the sun and it should clear up. Ive done this on multiple vehicles and have never had an issue. Hope this helps my friend. Thank you for watching , sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day🙏😎
Awesome, now I just need a car and to move to Houston lol
🤣🤣🤣Thats all you need Kiki. Its just that easy🤣Thank you for watching homie and have a blessed day😁😎✌️
Static tint on tail lights. Will it work ? Or will one car wash mess it up ?
Thats a great question. I think it will work but if your taillights have curves to them, a car wash may get underneath the tint and come off slightly. Of course im just guessing. I say give it a shot. I may have some extra tint laying around. Ill see if I can try it out and see what happens. Thank you for your question and have a blessed day 😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY thanks for the reply. I think ill give it a go. Going 70% on my Tesla Model 3 headlights and 50% on the tail lights. Ill squeegee it good and let it cure for a few days before washing it. Im in Arizona so it should bond pretty well. Wish me luck bro.
@@rudyomic21 Awesome brother. Yes hive it a shot and see what happens. Being in Arizona it will definitely cure quick. I would say just a few hours. Nice car homie. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
I just installed this Gila Cling Tint on my car and MAN is it blurry. Did I use the wrong soap or what? Do you know the reasoning as to why it's blurry at first then turns out clear in a couple days (hopefully)?
I'm curious if taking a heat gun to it would speed up the process. I feel like I am a hazard on the road with how blurry it is
Great question. Yes at first it will a tad blurry bur it will clear up after a couple of days from exposure to the sun. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😃🙏
Did it clear up?
YEAH !!! TEXAS ! 🥳🎉
🤣Thank you for stopping by Robert and thank you for your comment. Got to represent the great state of Texas. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
How much tint did you use
For the a standard vehicle you need 3 rolls. 1 for the front windows, 1 for the back windows and 1 for the rear window. The rear window is about 4 inches short from the bottom but is hardly noticeable. Thank you for your question and let me know if you need anything else. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️I will be making a video shortly on how to tint the rear window by yourself or with a buddy.
I used static cling from Walmart and I can’t see out it for shit, any tips? Can you do a comparison
Did you use black magic? If so I haven’t had good luck with it. But tips that I can recommend is to 1) Make sure the glass is clean on both sides 2) Clean the tint right before you install it on the other side of the glass. The tint may have dried up soapy water on it. 3) Park the vehicle in the sun. It seems to relax the tint and clear it up. Now it will not be perfectly clear like traditional tint but will be close to it. Whenever I have blurriness issues,it’s because of the top reasons. Great thing is, is that you can peel it right off and re-install it. Let me know if you have any more questions. I will do a comparison one of these days of the Gila, black magic and there was one called Green film on Amazon that someone recommended. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIYit just looks like orange peel I hope it clear up, if not ima get a pro to do it
@@fadededgeofficial3714 Yea it wont be perfectly clear like professional tint but you see what you need to see when driving. It’s a bit of the trade off when doing it yourself. I love it and haven’t had any issues. Hope it works out for you. Have a blessed day😁😎✌️
How long until it will clear up it is very blurry right now
It usually takes a few days out being in the sun. If it is still blurry you may need to let it sit for a little bit longer or peel it back and clean the window, spray the soapy water and make sure to get all the liquid out with a squeegee. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😁
Factory tint is not film. It is baked in the glass, so not the same as applying over typical tint. Just an fyi. Thanks for the review!

How does this tint do in rainy/bad weather?
Hello Pyro, there are no issues if rainy or bad weather. The tint at first is placed on the outside to trace the window so you can install it in the inside. So it will not be exposed to the elements at all. Thank you for your question and have a blessed day 😁😎✌️
@@FunkyColdMedinaDIY sorry I didn't explain myself, what I meant is does it affect your visibility during bad weather conditions because I know of some Tints that don't let you see
@@PyroTallahassee ahh I got you now. It would be the same as having no tint at all driving through bad weather. Ive driven through terrible rain where I couldn’t see, regardless if there was tint or not. The only I have is if you purchase the 5% tint or lower, it will be difficult to see at night. I do have to roll the window down to see sometimes at night. Bad weather is no issue, assuming its not a strong downpour 🤣 Thank you for clarifying Pyro
Good video but that why you come to shop I saw your cuts pretty bad but I give u props and 20% over 20% drop it down to 5% keep up the cool

is this tint available in India???
That I have no idea. My apologies. Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply and have a blessed day my friend🙏😎
Need to check clarity at night
Great question. It definitely depends on the percentage of tint you choose. I have 5% tint on my work truck and man it sure is dark🤣 Driving at night can be a challenge and have to roll my window down a bunch of times just to make sure I don’t hit something 🤣. But during the day its nice and clear. Thank you for watching and for your comment. Have a blessed day😎🙏
how long do you have to wait until u can roll your window down?
a day if you leave it out in the sun. 3 days if in the shade.
The link please
Whats up homie. Go to amazon and search Gila Static Cling Window tint. Then choose the percent of tint you want. I would recommend 5% for the back and 20% for the front. Check local laws. Sorry for the late reply. Thank you for watching and have a blessed day🙏😎

20% on 20% would be 1% VLT.
great eye my friend. I did a little research and If you put 20% tint on top of 20% tint, the resulting tint would be considered a 4% tint because you need to multiply the percentages together; 0.2 (20%) x 0.2 (20%) = 0.04 (4%). Thank you for watching, sorry for the late reply. Happy Holidays and have a blessed day🙏😎
This is for people that just don’t care what it looks like, how it performs or if they damage their vehicle in the process. If you want it to look good, look clear, actually block heat, and not damage your vehicle, take your vehicle to a reputable tint shop.
