What a film is allowed to tint the front glass and the process of tinting car windows

Recently, the question of which film can be toned the front glass, gained relevance in domestic expanses. According to the current rules of road traffic for drivers there are tough restrictions on how to tint the windshield and front side windows. Although it does not mean that these glass cannot be covered with toning.

Valid values

GOST 5727-88 prescribes the following:

• the windshield of the car should skip the light of at least 75 percent;
• glasses of front doors - more than 70 percent.

At the same time, GOST does not regulate the tinting of the other windows of the car, so they are allowed to tint with a film with any light-resistance.
However, it is said that glasses with toning should not spoil the perception with the driver of red, yellow, white, green, as well as flowers and shades with a blue tone.
Based on this, it can be concluded that the use of toning films with the SP 80 or SP 90 index is not enough that does not bring the desired effect, but also prohibited by law due to the fact that:

• any factory windshield on a modern car absorbs the light of 15-20 percent of light;
• windshield, operated for several years, does not miss light in an amount of from 20 to 25 percent.

The weakest toning with light absorption from 10 to 20 percent, taking into account the characteristics of the glass, during the diagnostics, the autoinspore can give the result, which close to 30 percent.

Perfect tinting is missing toning.

This does not apply to the rear windows. Toning in front Even with a permissible lighting value does not make sense, because by the time of the following technical inspection, the light-resistant glass will inevitably decrease.

The second way is to apply stickers to the top of the windshield. Its allowable width is prescribed by GOST 5727-88. Often, this figure does not exceed 15 centimeters, but here you need to take into account the border of the regulatory zones, the operation of wipers, the driver's corner of the review in all sorts of situations.
The third way is to use glass with electrochromas - the most expensive pleasure of three options. Such glass allows the driver to change the level of light-resistant. But it is necessary to take into account the fact that it is not legal.
