[QUOTE="TNTR70, post: 6285243, member: 606154"] no worries. i've realized that most people on here that post like you did know nothing about tinting. in order for him to get near a 25% reading on a light meter he would have to use a 35% film because the glass although it looks clear does have some color to it, but it's not tint. that is from the tempering process, it sorta "burns" in a color from being heated and cooled many times during manufacturing. 20% film on there would read around 15% making him illegal. 35% will bring it down to around 28% on a meter making him legal. i've been tinting professionally for 19+ years [/QUOTE]
