95 degrees outside... should I park in the driveway instead of garage to help new tint dry faster?
Can confirm as well this is a minor inconvenience but it will dry like paint. -

Good God would you look at that. Shame that it's at a point where these big companies continue to cut corners to maximize profits and give less of a product. -

i think i've had this carbon tint for about 20 years, car parked outside 24/7 noticed the back glass is hazy when the sun shines directly on it. Also, clarity is not so great, even though there are no bubbles. -

llumar backer branding
I saw the LOT number stamped on the backing sheet of the roll I was using yesterday, rather than the Llumar logo. It's the first time I've noticed that. -

after tint was already installed, how would I know if the installer actually xpel XR Plus, instead of just regular XR?
after tint was already installed, how would I know if the installer actually xpel XR Plus, instead of just regular XR? (either deliberately.... or accidentally picked out the wrong tint film?) -

Always call big brand names such as LLumar and have the lot number verified. Also, there is zero warranty for a branded product, if sold to a third party.- 1

Factory tinted glass works by absorption and as many of us know, air passing over the glass carries away any heat build up. If glass is tempered with zero threat from nickel sulfide inclusions, you can install any film. It's a crap shoot whether an owner will experience spontaneous breakage, in other words, it is such a small occurrence percentage it's not thought of as an issue ... say, for recall. Back in the day when I was installing film and a custy asked for their sunroof to be tinted, I would only offer mirrored tint (Solargard's silver 20%, 35% or 50%, custy's choice), most especially when the glass was factory tinted. Today's glass can be scary, when greed is factored in.- 1

I just looked up the #'s for my own memory The absorbance of 70% was 58% absorbance 55% was 65% absorbance I had 70% as a max figure and the next tier down was 45% at 72% absorbance Hence, that was my -uneducated- guess on going with 55%
