Car Window Tint Film 5% VLT Limo Black 2-Ply Solar 6m x 65cm Roll | BLACKGLASS IX Scratch-Resistant Privacy Tinting, UV Block, Strong Adhesive, DIY-Friendly, for Rear Windows, Home and Office

I've used many different tinting films over the years and this is the best one yet. A lot of the films out there are cheap and that's appealing! I get that. Why spend £30 on tinting film if you can get it for far less? Well, the reason is simply... You get what you pay for. I've used cheap tint before and had I known the more expensive stuff would be so far above and beyond - I'd have bought the premium stuff long ago. Cheap tint is thin, difficult to work with, easily creased and doesn't shrink very effectively. Then (if) you get it laying down properly it's highly likely to peel under the heat of the sun because of a lack adhesive. You've all seen those cars going around with bad tint. HOWEVER! on to the BLACKGLASS TINTING FILM. This stuff is high quality tinting film. The most premium I've tried. You won't regret paying a bit more for this, it's far easier to work with and to achieve the look you want. It cuts very well (use a sharp blade! The film is quite thick compared to cheaper stuff. I replaced my blade halfway through the job to ensure I was always cutting efficiently). It lays down very well and the backing is easily peeled. Make sure and clean your windows well (and I mean, really, very well. Especially around seams, to get rid of all the dirt.) Any micro particles can show under the film for an undesirable look. Use lots of soapy water for laying the film once you take the backing off. Spray the exposed adhesive side and the window before laying it down. Remember - you cannot use too much soapy water, keep it wet until you're ready to commit to laying it down and squeegee the film. It's going to be a bit messy. Don't worry about the mess of soapy water. Cleaning up after isn't so bad. There is enough film to tint the rear windscreen and rear passenger window panels (vauxhall insignia) and that's with me redoing the rear windscreen (rear windscreen is massive so did it in two halves vertically, decided to change and do it in two halves horizontally instead as I hid the splice under a defrosting line, worked well) and one back window (forgot to shrink). So you have some excess to cover your mistakes. But not much - so take care. The film shrinks really well with a heat gun. I found that I had to heat shrink the film on all window panels as they all have curve to them. But your experience may differ depending on car make and model. I went for the 5% limo tint for maximum effect as we have a 7 month old. The sun was shining in and causing him discomfort on longer drives, even with sun visor fitted to the window. Tinting the windows was definitely a good decision, not only does it drastically reduce sun glare (5% limo does anyway), it also blocks majority of harmful UV rays and reduces the overall heat in the vehicle. Good for summer. Overall I am completely happy with this product and would happily buy again from BLACKGLASS. The result I was able to achieve was worth spending double of what I normally would on tinting film. Check photos for an example of my results. Perfect all round.

Very good product I never ever leave reviews on products but I feel as though this product does deserve one, I have never tinted a window in my life and used this for tinting the back windows of my car and it went perfectly, the installation is a little tricky but that has nothing to do with the product just its a hard skill to learn, the tint is very good as well from the outside you can't see into the car whatsoever even when you are face to face with the glass, from the inside you can still see out just not as easily. the roll came in perfect condition with no creases or dents and the amount that comes is surprising I could probably tint 3-4 cars with one roll, overall Im very satisfied with the product and felt safe to order it ass they seem to be making contact with all unsatisfied customers with refunds or new rolls of tint so I felt as though if it went wrong they would be there to respond.

Come packaged well and looked good but found it little hard to install myself and cut so ended up having it installed by professional on camper project- nothing wrong with product though if your good at installing it

After following the installation instructions the film initially went on ok, but the started proof at the corners. Also on some windows instead of appearing black from the outside they appeared rainbow coloured. Had to hold the pealing off film with black gaffer tape to prevent total peel off. This sounds bad but it was for a window van to prevent people looking inside which it did. Not a cheap product, sadly very disappointed.

Never tinted windows before so watched some videos, on YouTube and those that are linked in the product instructions, read the instructions before starting. The job isn’t perfect but that’s down to my faults. The product is great, easy to work with and was exactly as described. I would purchase this again.

Re-Edited: Ordered the 5% for a lexan window in my van, great product, easy to apply. I have ordered the 75% for the front. I have installed the 5% at the back without any issue, but the 75% unfortunately its very hard as a film and doesn't shrink with the hot gun bit it's becoming more rigid and doesn't stick at all. After 3 weeks unfortunately started to come off in the corners and won't stick again. Used on car glasses and lexan sheet from both is coming out now

I would just like to correct some of the queries regarding using on heated screens, yes you can. Do not listen to people on here that have no knowledge. This product is fantastic, as good as the expensive brands. You should be heating it to shrink it to the window shape, especially rear screens, so yes it does work with heated screens. If your not hearing it to shrink it, you won't fit it properly. This product shrinks nicely, as good as top brands, it sticks, it smooths out, no issues what so ever. Done 2 cars with this product and will use from now on. I can't comment on uv protection as I have no way of measuring it, but if you shrink it and fit it properly, you should have zero problems with this product. It is excellent.

Great product used to tint the back and side of a large tropical fish tank. I never learn in the old adage of "buy cheap, buy twice" I stupidly bought a cheap tinting film and it was like 2ply tissue paper. This on the other hand it top quality. So easy to work with. Clean the surface with a lint free cloth. Spray the area with diluted washing up liquid. Soak it in fact as it gives so much wiggle room. Squeeze out with these cheap blue squeeze things. (Only need one but they came as a pair) Retractable craft knife to cut back what wasn't needed. And then gave it a sweep over with my daughters hair dryer which is more like an afterburner of a Tornado fighter jet. The finish is perfect.

No tools are included, such as a knife or scraper. I don't know, but I thought it didn't want to stick very well. difficult to get good results. but incredibly fast delivery.

Super produit

Easy and great

DO NOT BUY!! THIS TINT IS VERY LOW QUALITY AND IS NOT FIT FOR PURPOSE. i applied it to the same again after it started peeling the first time. thinking i done something wrong i had a professional tint it again and it only lasted 3 weeks before it started peeling again badly. it doesn’t stick and is harder to apply to begin with because of how low the quality iS.
