Spring is short here and the weather is already turning summery. 8)
I'm thinking of window tinting to try to reduce heat and protect the battery. I have never had windows tinted before, but did a thread search and have a couple of questions:
1. Is tint always applied as a film? It's not sprayed onto the glass, right? If film is the standard method, what is the best way to prevent unsightly bubbles?
2. Should I contact the DOT to find out the legal % of tint allowed?
3. What exactly are "ceramic" tints? It sounds like they are non-reflective but provide the best heat reduction.
4. Can a tinting film be removed without damaging the glass or leaving a residue?
Thanks very much for "shedding some light" on my questions.
