The tint film is applied to the inside of your car windows.

Question 6

Can I wash my car after getting my windows tinted?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can. Tint is applied to the inside of the glass, so you can wash the exterior of your car and windows right away. 
You will have to wait at least 1 week before washing the windows from the inside though.

Question 7

What is legal tint?

Accepted Answer

In Ontario, the rear windows do not have any limitations, they can technically be painted.

The 2 front windows cannot be darker then a 70% tint to pass a safety inspection. This very light tint will already be embedded inside the glass, meaning no more tint can be applied to the front windows to legally pass a safety.

Yet, dealerships in Ontario are allowed to sell tint on the 2 front windows to their customers. (After a safety has been obtained) Because of this, ticketing for tint is very much a grey area and is generally left up to officer discression.

Ontarios website says that 30% darkness is allowed on the 2 front windows. Tint manufactures do not grade tint on darkness, but on how much light is transmitted. 
This means that when the Ontario website says 30% darkness, they really mean a 70% tint.

Question 8

Can I match the back tint?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you can! 
Factory tint is 20%, and is most likely the tint that is currently on your rear windows. 
So if you would like to match the back, you would need a 20% on the 2 fronts. 
That will cost $125+hst for any vehicle except a Ford Transit, which costs $149+hst.
