"Erik Chavez: I recently got my windows tinted at ultraviolet window tinting, and I couldn’t be happier with the service I received. The team was super transparent about the options available, and they gave me honest advice without trying to upsell. They really listened to what I wanted and provided the best option for my car. The tinting job itself was flawless. The work was done with great attention to detail. The tint looks fantastic and very professional. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality window tinting and top-notch service. They’ve earned my trust, and I’ll definitely be back for future needs!"

Window Tinting Laws in California

Front Windshield:Non-reflective tint above AS-1 line
Front Side Windows:Must allow 70% of light to pass through
Back Side Windows:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
Rear Window:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
California's strict car window tinting laws require front side windows to have at least 70% VLT (Visible Light Transmission), keeping them relatively clear. Back side and rear windows can have any darkness level. Windshield tint is limited to the top 4 inches. California prohibits red, amber, and blue tinting, and reflectivity cannot exceed standard window levels. Dual side mirrors are required with tinted back windows. Professional window tinting services ensure compliance while providing heat rejection for California's sunny climate.

Please note that window tinting laws may change. Always verify current regulations with your automotive window tinting provider to ensure compliance.
