[QUOTE="g54b16psi, post: 3815758, member: 49052"] Glad to help! As a rule of thumb, you can use non-reflective ("black") types of tinting on single-pane tempered glass window around the home, such as storm doors and windows in a newer garage door, etc. Any tempered piece of glass will be marked as such with an etching in one of the corners of the window. For everything else, to be safe, it needs to be reflective. Also, reflective films give you amazing privacy during the day because they look mirrored from the outside, but at night when you have lights on in the home people will still be able to see in (like a limo at night with the lights on inside - you can see them but they probably can't see you) so additional window treatments are still needed for privacy unless you don't have neighbors to worry about.
