See what Joe has to say in his photosync tint review. Joe Rose of the DC/Baltimore area just had the Photosync 55/45 installed on the sides and rear and 75/70 on the windshield of his car by AP Tinting. If trying to hit that mark, Huper Ceramic 30 if you are okay with the slightly silverish look or F1 Stratos 30 which has a normal color. Read more to see the proof behind this beautiful tint and exactly why AP Tinting customers are raving. Why we love Spectra PhotoSync Nano Tint manufactured by Prestige Blocks out 99.5 of UV and 98.5 of IR We put this onto BMWs to Bugattis And it. Crystalline typically drops to around 33 on the vehicle, but will still be lighter than the sub-30 you are wanting. Once summer has taken its wrath and leaves begin to fall, normal tints don’t have the technology to lighten up for cloudy days however, Spectra Photosync Tint has the power to do just that. 3M’s Crystalline window tint also features a nanotechnology coating (200 layers of optical film to be exact) that helps it reject more heat than even some darker films. Since my top priority is looks, Im deciding between Crystalline 90 and Spectra Photosync 75. You could blame the high demand on one extremely hot summer, but the sale of this tint won’t dwindle after summer fades to fall. This extraordinary window tint with a solar adaptive technology reacts to the strength of solar rays, lightening or darkening before your eyes. In fact, once this new tinting became available, Rivian abandoned its previously-announced plans to use electrochromic glass in the R1T and R1S, claiming that the tinting was more effective than electrochromic glass in reducing heat radiation into the cabin.The demand for Spectra Photosync Tint has skyrocketed within the last few months, but the reasons why are as clear as the tint itself. Tesla, Lucid, and Rivian all use this new tinting. Meanwhile, new tinting technology became available that greatly increases infrared heat rejection by glass. (Again, the MB SkyMagic roof is framed on all sides, so there is no termination line in play.) Some films, like Spectra Photosync, provide great heat rejection protection even at lighter tints as measured by the film’s TSER (Total Solar Energy Rejection) and IRR (Infra-Red Rejection). Tint percentage isn’t the be-all and end-all though. Second, the film does not go completely transparent, so terminating it above the windshield would leave a visible line in the glass. White Tesla Model 3 tint with XPEL ceramic 35 window + 70 windshield. (Boeing had to flatten the window panels to use this film in the Dreamliner, and the MB SkyMagic roof is a relatively small panel with little curvature.) And as a general rule of thumb avoid mobile tinting. First, the film has limited flexibility, and the bend as the roof descends to form the windshield might have been too extreme. Your best bet for heat rejection is to find a dealer that installs 3M Crystalline, Spectra PhotoSync, or Huper Optiks ceramic line. Perhaps they were expecting developments in the technology before the car entered production, because by the time the car was headed for market the film that was available was not suitable for the purpose.Įlectrochromic film has two characteristics that made it difficult to use in an Air. In fact, the early prototypes of the Air had a switch to control the darkening mounted near the rearview mirror. Spectra Photosync IRD (Front Doors - 30, and Rear Door/Hatch - 70): 750 3M Ceramic IR (Front Doors - 15, and Rear Door/Hatch - 70): 590 I live in a state that that requires a waiver for the front windshield AND has a yearly safety inspection sticker affixed to the windshield. Lucid originally intended to use electrochromic glass.
