What is the darkest legal tint in South Carolina?
In South Carolina, the darkest legal tint varies depending on the vehicle type:
- Passenger Vehicles: The front side windows must allow at least 27% of light in (27% VLT).
- Multi-Purpose Vehicles (SUVs, Vans, Trucks): The front side windows must also allow 27% VLT, but there are no restrictions on the back side and rear windows.
Ensure compliance with local laws to avoid fines and penalties.
What is the closest to factory tint?
The closest match to factory tint is typically 20% VLT. This level closely resembles the tint often applied by manufacturers on rear windows, offering privacy while maintaining a sleek, factory-style appearance.
What is the difference between 35% and 20% window tint?
The percentage refers to the Visible Light Transmission (VLT), which indicates how much light passes through the tint:
- 35% Tint: Allows more light in, offering a subtle dark look. It’s ideal for balancing visibility and style.
- 20% Tint: Darker and offers more privacy, blocking more sunlight and heat. This option is commonly used on factory-installed tints for rear windows.
How do I maintain my window tint after installation?
For the best results:
- Avoid rolling down windows for 5-7 days after installation to allow the film to set.
- Use non-abrasive cleaners and soft cloths to clean the windows.
- Avoid using ammonia-based products, as they can damage the tint.
