How dark can I tint my windows in Colorado?
Colorado law requires front side windows to allow more than 27 percent of light through, and the shop states that it makes sure all installations are compliant with state regulations. Shade options range from 70 percent down to 5 percent limo tint. After installation, keep windows fully closed for at least 48 hours, and any residual moisture between film and glass cures out over 5 to 7 days.
