PRODUCT CARE & GUIDELINES

Do not roll your windows down for 3 - 5 days during the spring and summer months (5 – 10 days during the winter). We place the film down behind the window weather-stripping but it needs time to adhere to the glass and the water to dry.
Do not clean windows for 30 days. Must be tint-safe, ammonia-free glass cleaners or mild detergent and water using a soft microfiber cloth.
Complete dry-out time, including trapped moisture, water bubbles and cloudy-look take as long as 30 to 60 days after installation to dissipate.
Do not use anything abrasive when cleaning the film. Paper towels are fine but do not use any type of scouring pad.
Do not use any window cleaners with ammonia. The best cleaner (and least expensive and healthier) is to use a couple of drops of baby shampoo or dishwashing liquid in a spray bottle. For optimal results consider using Autobahn Premium Glass Cleaner as it is specially designed to maximize the longevity and performance of our window films.
Do not let go of your seatbelt when you remove it. If you let go of your seatbelt as you remove it sometimes when it recoils it can hit the window and nick the film.
Remember, the film needs time to dry and adhere to the glass therefore it may have some slight distortion and cloudiness which will eventually disappear once the film has completely cured.

rules and regulations

Ontario Window Film Laws.

Canada window film laws are different in each province. This section provides relevant information about laws regarding the installation of window film in Ontario.

THE HIGHWAY TRAFFIC ACT

Historically, Ontario laws have not expressly specified whether front window tinting is legal or not. According to the Ontario Highway Safety Act, you may not drive a vehicle if:

[...] any window to the direct left or right of the driver’s seat [...] substantially obscures the interior of the motor vehicle when viewed from outside the motor vehicle.

Therefore, It has historically been up to an individual police officer to determine whether your tint “substantially” obscures vision in your car. The acceptable gradient of visible light transmission that meets this subjective requirement has generally been interpreted as 35% VLT (65% opacity/light block) in Ontario.

New Ontario vehicle inspection regulations state that cars manufactured after January 1st, 2017 may not have any aftermarket window tint applied to the windshield. OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) or factory-made cars can have 30% VLT (70% opacity/light block), and tinting may not extend more than 75mm from top of windshield.

Ontario law does not restrict tinting and darkness on your back side windows and rear window. Reflective tint is not allowed. Ontario’s traffic law also requires having left and right external rear view mirrors in case rear window is tinted (sec. 74.2).
