STATE REGULATIONS:
In Australia, each state has regulations covering the type of film that is allowed to be placed on passenger vehicles. Basically the regulations do not allow very dark or highly reflective films to be placed on cars for safety reasons. The maximum allowable darkness, or shade of a window film is 35%VLT.

WHAT DOES VLT MEAN:
V.L.T. stands for Visible Light Transmittance. This measurement refers to the amount of natural light that is able to pass through the window once a particular film has been applied.

IN GLASS RADIO AERIALS:
Some cars do not have standard telescopic rod type aerials, but have the aerial built into the glass. If “normal” metallised automotive window films are applied the AM radio band reception strength will be greatly reduced, (FM to a lesser extent) and this may effect the number and stations that can be received in your area. For in glass aerials we recommend that a non–metallised film be applied to ensure good radio reception.
