Car window tint film kit: the roll, knife and squeegee in the same box
This car window tint film kit contains everything you need to tint your windows yourself: a roll of 50 x 300 cm tint film, a cutting knife and a squeegee. The PET film blocks a large proportion of UV rays, reflects sunlight heat and protects the privacy of your passengers. Five shades are available, from very light 70% to very dark 5%.
Why tint your windows with this film
- Heat-rejecting film: 40 to 60% of solar heat rejected depending on the shade, for a cooler interior in summer.
- UV protection: 80 to 100% of UV rays blocked, so seats and plastics fade more slowly.
- Privacy: people outside can no longer see into the back seat.
- Less glare at night and in bright sunlight.
- Complete installation kit: cutting knife and squeegee included.
Which film shade for which window?
The percentage indicates the proportion of light that passes through the film. The 70% shade remains very light and is designed for those who mainly want UV protection. The 50% and 30% shades darken the windows without making them opaque. The 15% and 5% shades create the black-tinted window effect seen on premium sedans and SUVs, ideal for the rear window and back windows of a family vehicle.
What the law says in France
In France, the windscreen and front side windows must allow at least 70% of light to pass through: darker film is prohibited on these windows and may result in a fine and the vehicle being impounded. The rear windows and rear windscreen can be fitted with dark film, provided the car has two exterior rearview mirrors. For road use, therefore, only fit the 50%, 30%, 15% and 5% shades on the rear windows.
How to fit tint film on a car window
Thoroughly clean the window to remove grease. Cut the film slightly larger than the window. Remove the protective film by sticking a piece of adhesive tape to each side of a corner and pulling. Apply the film with the adhesive side to the window, which should be wet with soapy water, squeegee out the water and air, then carefully cut along the seal with the knife. Do not roll down the window for a few days. For a curved rear window, fitting tint film requires a little patience and a hairdryer.
Frequently asked questions

On the windscreen and front windows, only film that allows at least 70% of light to pass through; on the rear windows, all shades are permitted with two exterior rearview mirrors.
How many windows can be covered with a 3-metre roll?
Generally, both rear windows and the rear window of a city car; measure your windows before choosing.
