In general, the following will have the greatest impact upon the ease or difficulty of your installation:

• Your skill level as an installer
• The complexity of the lights
• Using the correct tools and fluids

Which Tools Do You Need?

Although you can (theoretically) install your Rtint Blackout film wrap without any tools we don't recommend it. At a minimum we recommend the following

• A squeegee to help in applying the film and releasing air bubbles
• Rapid Prep to clean and prepare the surface of the lights
• Rapid Tac helps to reposition and apply the tint film
• Rapid Clear to polish your Rtint Blackout films
• Seal-It Pens to seal the edges

Is Blackout Rtint Film Legal?

None of our tinted Rtint light films are recommended for use on public roads and should only be used for show purposes. Still, if you decide to apply Blackout film to your headlights and taillights you should know that many localities and municipalities will ticket you for their use. Please check with your local police department to find out if tinted headlights and taillights are legal.

Can You Use Rtint on Mirrors or Windows?

We do not recommend using any Rtint light tint films on mirrors or windows because the film is not optically clear meaning that it may reduce visibility despite transmitting visible light.

What Does 5% VLT Mean?

Rtint Blackout film, is one of our most popular shades and will black out your lights by about 95% while still allowing 5% of light to exit the housing. Clearly, Rtint Blackout films should only be used on show vehicles as they may block too much light to be practical for application taillights and headlights.
