As soon as summer comes, most car owners cover the windows of their favorite car with tinting (after all, tinting is nothing more than a film). Of course, those motorists who oppose it can offer air conditioning as an alternative, however, in some cases, it does not save from the heat.
Auto glass tinting is such a delicate process, both technologically and legally, that non-compliance with the law of the Russian Federation is simply unacceptable. There are three types of imprimatura, although only the first type is actually used: tint film, spraying, colored glass insert.
The undoubted advantages of glass tinting include the following:
- improving the appearance of the car, because removable tinting is tuning;
- relative safety, for example, upon impact: glass, thanks to the tint film, will not shatter into fragments throughout the cabin;
- thermal insulation that helps save fuel by reducing the load on the air conditioner;
- reduction of glare, both by sunlight and headlights whenhigh beam on;
- UV protection. Of course, such a property can be expected if the removable tinting is of very high quality;
- security against theft: it becomes much more difficult for an intruder to view the salon, and break the glass too.
Of course, imprimatura has a minus - this is a deterioration in visibility, which depends on the degree of darkening of the glass. Although, if you turn to the law, the light transmission must be at least 95 percent of the windshield (otherwise - 5 percent tinted), and at least 70 percent for the side windows of a car (perforated tinting - 30 percent).
Unfortunately, there are very few conscious citizens who fully comply with the percentage of tinting of their car windows. And as a result: when passing a technical inspection, motorists, for whom it many times exceeds the permissible norms, have serious problems. To prevent this from happening, most car owners have recently given preference to such a type as perforated tinting - this is the same darkened film, only with holes. Its main advantage is that it has a very high percentage of light transmission, since light enters through these small holes.
It is worth noting a few important nuances if you decide to tint your car:
- it can be painted and metallized, and it is the latter that is preferable, since it has high performance characteristics, among which you cannote the resistance to fading and increased thermal insulation. You can distinguish such a film only by touch: metallized perforated tinting is much tougher than dyed;
- Imprimatura care is very important. So, as soon as the film has been stuck, five days of glass in the car should not be opened in any case; for a month it is impossible to wash tinted windows with water from the inside; perforated tinting "does not like" touching itself along the edges; when you wash the glasses, be sure to wipe them dry and never use any brushes.
Actually, perforated tinting is the choice of everyone, but the main thing is that he must be conscious.
