Film comparison
Film names and VLT are not interchangeable. Every shade lists its light transmission and, for the LLumar films, the measured solar and infrared rejection, so you can compare appearance and performance side by side.
Ceramic performance for everyday comfort, glare control and a clean neutral appearance.
Advanced infrared-focused ceramic technology for drivers prioritizing cabin comfort.
Clear film with LLumar’s nano-ceramic technology, for drivers who want protection with minimal visible darkening.
Our house carbon film: a clean dark look with everyday heat control, at the most accessible price on the sheet.
Our house ceramic film: stronger heat rejection than carbon with the same neutral look, without the LLumar price.
LLumar values are from LLumar’s North American automotive performance data (document LL0116NAEN, revision 03/26) using the manufacturer’s stated reference-glass testing: TSER is total solar energy rejected and IR is solar infrared rejection (780–2500nm). PRO house-film shades are nominal until the supplier’s data sheet is published here. Vehicle glass changes the installed result. View the current manufacturer data
Select ceramic films are designed to help manage solar heat without relying on the darkest appearance.
Choose a VLT that supports your comfort and appearance goals while preserving useful visibility.
LLumar’s current North American performance sheet reports more than 99% UV protection for the listed CTX, IRX and AIR shades under its stated test conditions.
LLumar states CTX does not block electronic signal transmission and describes IRX as compatible with electronic connectivity.

Coverage planning
Virginia measures the total light that passes through the film and the factory glass together. No shade is legal on its own: legality is confirmed with a meter reading at install.

Same vehicle and view. Actual shade varies with factory glass, lighting and interior color.
Front side windows must let through 50% or more on every vehicle.
Rear side and rear windows must let through 35% or more on cars, with no limit on SUVs, trucks and vans. Factory privacy glass counts toward the reading.
No tinted film is allowed on the windshield below the top sunshield strip without a DMV medical authorization.
LLumar tint FAQ
Questions worth answering before installation.
LLumar CTX and IRX ceramic films and LLumar AIR clear film, plus our own PRO Carbon and PRO Ceramic house films. Available shades, vehicle compatibility and your recommended configuration are confirmed before installation.
No. A name such as IRX 35 is a product designation. Use the measured visible light transmission value in the current LLumar data sheet when comparing film.
LLumar publishes a no-signal-blocking statement for CTX and describes IRX as signal-friendly for electronics. We do not extend that statement to products for which it is not published.
No. The digital studio is an appearance and education tool. Vehicle classification, factory glass and the finished-window meter reading all matter. No shade is legal on its own: legality is confirmed with a meter reading at install.
