What Percent is the Darkest Tint

What is the darkest percent tint you can have legally will depend on what state you are in. Window tint percentage is measured in Visible Light Transmission (VLT) – this is the amount of light that can pass through your car window. Octane is our darkest legal tint and is available in two shades – it blocks out harmful UV rays & glare whilst providing ultimate privacy (and it looks amazing!).
