Light transmission
Visual light transmission is the amount of light that passes through the
film and glass. Applying window film to vehicle glass will reduce the amount
of visible light transmission.
Back windows
While the back window can be tinted using any of our films, it is important
to note that installing film which has a light transmission of 5% could
cause problems when reversing in areas of poor lighting.
Back side windows
In areas of poor lighting, installing very dark film to back side windows
can also impair vision and also reduce the view of the back seat passengers.
Front side windows
The front side windows are very important to the driver’s vision,
and it is vital that under no circumstances should dark films be installed
to front side windows as this will pose a serious risk to the driver and
other road users. With this in mind, police authorities may fine offenders
or issue endorsements.
