Application of Window Tinting Films - Limitations of Use
   

Section 32 of the Department of Transport Road Vehicles Regulations [with effect from 1st January 2004] prevents the use of window tints on the front screen of vehicles and restricts the use on side windows forward of the B posts. “… anyone responsible for the fitment of window tints which reduce visible light transmission levels to below the prescribed levels [of 70% visible light transmission] forward of the B post is committing an offence and can be prosecuted.” For more detailed information regarding these regulations please contact Metamark, or the Department of Transport.

For application to buildings care should be taken when applying to double-glazing as heat absorption may cause cracking. The film will have limited performance when used on internal glazed partitions.
