Not sure what you mean but the windshield tint is on the inside so it should hold up as good as the rest I assume. They put it on the outside to mold it first then transfer it to the inside.

I’ve tinted the windshields on my last 3 rigs the trick is NOT using cheap tint. Each of my prior vehicles had the windshields tinted over 4years with issue at all but all had Crystalline film.

13m long video of tinting three windows is rather impressive.
Not sure how to interpret that hopefully it’s in a positive light, thanks I hope

What is the vlt on the windshield?

I agree on the quality of the windshield tint. Also the installer is important. I currently have 50% on my windshield of regular tint which is not as clear as I would like so I plan on getting it redone. Also my installer did a shit job on it.

ahh thats what I get for replying before I finished watching. They were molding it to the outside when I replied and though it was the exterior, protective film I've heard about.

thanks for clarifying

This was 90% and totally agree I learned alot about how it has to be molded without damaging or distorting the film for clarity.

Oh ok cool thanks man unfortunately there seems to be a few more hateful people on here these days so it’s hard to interpret comments sometimes. Thanks man really appreciate the positive vibes. It was a rad process and cool to see them do it. It actually only took them about 90 minutes from pulling the bronco in to pulling it out. It was very fast process. The windshield was the biggest task.

Yea truth be told I actually went in there and requested that too but they weren’t a dealer for that film for exterior. They also told me it’s hot or miss on the longevity of it. I’m still doing some research as I’m still interested in doing it.

Not sure I'd want to go though the expense of tinting the windshield on my Bronco given their propensity for cracking if you look at them the wrong way.
