:cry:
finally January is over and i can have a short month and get my finances back on track.........or not
PC Plod stopped me tonight on the way home from the g/f's, the only traffic cop in St Helens with a light meter
I wasnt bothered as my tints are very very light, you can see through them easily
He tested them though and it said otherwise, only 35% light coming through.........£30 fine for me
It has completely amazed me, and im now wondering if its possible to do the test backwards, if in fact my windows let more light in ?
However ive read about on the net...
"Glass does not let in 100% of light. Clear glass only allows approximately 86% of light to pass & the slight tint of standard manufactured glass varies from the 70% maximum limit up to approx 80% of light passing through, thus any film being applied to these windows will drop the light transmissions to below the regulation limit.
