Kentucky law
The percentage is how much light the glass must let through: the lower the number, the darker the tint.

Laws change. These are Kentucky’s limits as we know them today (KRS 189.110); we check your shade before we start.

Front side windows must let in at least 35% of light. Behind the driver, cars can go down to 18% and SUVs, vans and trucks to 8%.
Only a strip along the top, down to the AS-1 line marked on the glass. The rest of the windshield stays clear.
No. The darkest Kentucky allows is 8%, behind the driver on SUVs, vans and trucks, and 18% behind the driver on cars. Of Union’s six shades, that makes 15% the darkest legal one behind the driver on an SUV, van or truck, and 20% on a car.
If your car is registered in Indiana, Indiana’s law is the one to follow: at least 30% on the front side windows.

Karen Jenkinsa week agoBeau was excellent. The response time for a quote and booking the appointment were fast! Almost immediate. He discussed options with me on how dark I wanted & offered a very competitive price. He’s got a clean shop and was right on time with my appointment. I highly recommend him for his professionalism and quality!
Karen Ramey2 months agoHad a quick response with a quote to tint my car on a late afternoon. Then had an easy appt booking experience thru text (call was also available). All my questions were answered. Communication reminders via text and email were also nice. The process was done fast and efficiently. Very satisfied with the finished product. I’ve told all my friends and would definitely recommend to anyone needing their windows tinted.
Braden Perkins4 months agoVery good job, Reasonably priced and I love that there is a warranty. The guy was super chill too. Only problem that occurred was it took way longer than expected but I think it was worth it.
