About Window Tint Percentages
Visual light transmission (VLT) percentage determines the darkness of a window tint. VLT percentage is the amount of light that is allowed to pass through a window film. For example, a 30% window tint will allow 30% of the light to pass through the film while blocking 70%. So, lower the VLT percentage, the darker the tint. You can get an approximate idea of the VLT percentages from the image (click for larger view).
