Frequently Asked Questions
We know tint can be confusing with laws, shades, and film types. Here are the most common questions we get at Clarity Tinting.
Sedans: 35% all around on all side and rear windows. No tint on the windshield besides a sun strip at the top.
SUVs, trucks, and vans: 35% on the front two windows, any darkness allowed on the rear windows. No tint on the windshield besides a sun strip.
This is a simple overview, not legal advice. Always double-check current Oregon tint rules if you’re unsure.
For most daily drivers, we recommend 35% on the front two windows to stay legal and mainly depending on how much privacy you want.
Standard carbon film mainly provides privacy, minimal heat rejection, and adds some glare reduction. Ceramic film blocks more heat, making the car feel cooler. Nano-ceramic is the top tier, giving maximum heat rejection, better comfort, and highest clarity.
Full vehicle tint jobs take about 2–3 hours depending on the vehicle, film choice, and how many windows we’re doing. Bigger SUVs and vehicles with more glass can increase service time.
We recommend waiting at least 1-3 days in warmer weather and 3-5 days in the colder weather.
This is normal while the film is curing. Moisture gets trapped under the film after install and slowly evaporates. As the film dries over 1–3 weeks, the haze and small bubbles disappear. Don’t poke or press on them, just let it cure.
After the first 7–14 days, you can clean the inside glass using a soft microfiber towel and a tint-safe, ammonia-free glass cleaner. Avoid razor blades, harsh scrub pads, or anything that can scratch the film.
Quality film installed properly will not damage your rear defroster lines. Ceramic and nano-ceramic films are also designed not to interfere with things like Bluetooth, cell signal, or keyless entry.
