Lower percentages appear darker
A 5% shade allows less visible light through than 35% or 65%, so it creates a darker appearance and greater privacy.

Read the preview correctly
Shade appearance and measured VLT are related—but different.
Use the simulator to compare appearance. Final darkness and legal compliance depend on the vehicle's glass, installed film, and window location.
Factory glass changes the result
The film works together with the glass already in your vehicle. Factory privacy glass can make the completed result appear darker.
The finished system is what gets measured
The film label does not guarantee the final meter reading. Total VLT is measured through the installed film and factory glass.
One premium nano-ceramic film
Choose the appearance—not a performance tier.
Every available shade uses QuickShade's premium ceramic film. There are no confusing film levels or upsells to compare.

Tint limits vary by registration state and window location. Use the Kansas and Missouri guide for local requirements and the linked nationwide resource for vehicles registered elsewhere.
Simulator questions
What to know before choosing.
What does a window tint percentage mean?
A tint percentage generally describes visible light transmission, or VLT—the amount of visible light allowed through. Lower percentages appear darker. The final measured VLT depends on both the installed film and the vehicle's factory glass.
Will the finished tint look exactly like the simulator?
No. The simulator is an illustrative comparison. Vehicle design, interior color, factory glass, lighting, viewing angle, and your device screen can all affect how dark the finished tint appears.
Does factory privacy glass affect the finished appearance?
Yes. Factory glass can already be darkened, especially behind the driver on many trucks and SUVs. Adding film changes both the appearance and the complete glass-and-film VLT measurement.
Does QuickShade use the same ceramic film for every shade?
Yes. QuickShade installs one premium nano-ceramic film across the available shade choices, with verified 96% IR heat rejection, 99% UVA/UVB rejection, and a manufacturer lifetime warranty.
How do I check whether a tint percentage is legal?
Tint laws vary by registration state and window location. Review the Kansas and Missouri comparison, or use the nationwide resource linked there if your vehicle is registered elsewhere. Review window tint laws.
