3m crystalline film

Anyone here have experience with 3m crystalline window tint film ? I’m researching adding tint for my 2019 c43 on order. If you did what amount of tint ? Picts ?

I don't personally have it on my car, but crystalline is some of the best film available. Tint wise, how much privacy do you want?

I always run 15% ceramic in my front and rear side windows with limo (5%) on the rear window. I have been doing that for years. With my black interior, you can't see in the car at night, but you can see in during the day.


If you are in a state with strict tint laws (California, East coast), you might want to keep that in mind.

the crystalline didnt get dark enough for my preference and also it has a odd shade of color to it. kinda like brown tan ish.

I opted for the 3M color stable tint instead and went with 35% around and 50% on windshield. it really comes down to preference and interior color.

Tint

My wife doesn’t like really dark tint. I was thinking about 70% crystalline all around. This would take care of heat in summer with no blackout.

Ok state where I live doesn’t allow tint on windshield. From what I’ve read 70 is so light I might get away with it otherwise 90 on the windshield.

70% all around including windshield would look good if thats what you want. yes i doubt anyone would be able to notice the 70 on windshield. maybe only on cloudy days. sunny days not a chance. it wont be dark.

id go 70 all around includding windshield if thats what you are after.

post pics when its done!
