Are you thinking of placing tint over tint? Didn't know that you could do that.

All my cars have been done at Supatint.
20% all round.

Guy lives in Thomastown (Check out fb page)

You can do tint on tint if your current tint is in good shape.

10% all round is nuts! I'm already winding down the windows when reversing the car at night.

Also bear in mind that some window tints react with our keyless entry. Look into this when choosing tints and do a bit or trawling in this forum for more info as im not sure on the specifics.

Yeah I've got tint over tint on my car. It came with privacy rear windows and tinted fronts, but the front tint was a neat job so we could tint over it no problem. Ended up doing a 35% over the 35 front, and a 15% over the privacy rear which was about 30%ish or so. Just worked out cheaper than ripping off the old tint which can be a PITA to clean.
