Rambit's Tint Details

[Rambit]

I went to Tint King yesterday , the place that did my SRT8 tinting to find out exactly what was used. Some have asked various questions, but at the time I was unable to give the exact information. I got everything there was to offer.

It's made by Sun-Gard. The tint I got was 20% Steel-Radiant II. It comes in 35% (light), 20% (medium) and 5% (limo).

It apparently offers 99% UV protection, 65% heat reduction, it's a metalized film and is garanteed not to turn purple over time. When I posted pictures of my car, someone asked about the centre brake light area. I asked the shop & they told me they went arount that area. I looked at it and there are no rough or jagged areas and it blends in perfectly.

Took me a second to figure this one out "stinking", eh?

A slip of the hand does not necessarly mean a slip of the mind! Ha Ha

I have 5% on my car and I love it. However, it does make seeing at night difficult so beware. Also, it is illegal in most states (including my state )

I live in Ontario and the limit is 30 or 35%. I've heard, but can't confirm that the province of Quebec doesn't allow any tinting at all. Maybe someone from that province can comment on this.

My last three trucks have 20% tint & I never had a problem with it visually at night. I have good night vision and have never had to use high beams on the highway. That's me of course and everyone is different. In the city I live in (London), it's very common to see 20% tints. I've never heard of anyone having a problem with the police. Of course if someone wants to be a jerk to them, they could do something about it I imagine.

I have 17% and that too is hard to see out at night.
