Default Window Tint

I found some 20% window tint, static cling type. $15 for 26"x78"

Can I double or even triple layer it to keep prying eyes out of my van.

If you are real good at tinting, I don't see why not. Depends on the quality of the tint on how much clarity you lose, if that even matters to you. On the front windows, consider the laws in your state regarding that.

I went with the black, light tight curtains. I like to be able to open the curtains and let some light in, and close them and let no light out.

You could've accomplished the same thing with a $1.99 can of black spray paint.

Black spray paint to the inside of the windows works grrrrrreat!!!!!!!!
Looks bad on the inside, but from the outside it looks like really blacked out limo tint at like 0% vlt.

I spent like $50 trying to find the best way to get privacy, this $2.50 expirment worked wonders. Just cant easily reverse it.

Now if i can find some spray paint that will block out my body heat signature from the damn f.l.i.r. Helicopter that loves to fly over me every night.

I use the cling on limo tint in the back grommet windows - you can't see through it for anything, but I would not rec putting cling on on your windows up front, it will just bunch up and malfunction with your window operations

With all due respect the input I can give is that you hijacked Hillbilly Wheeling's thread, and to boot you're talking about a Charger in the Ram Van forum.
