Window tinting laws

[Guest chrisbiz4444]

I am considering starting a tint bussiness, The only problem is that i live in a state where no tint is legal. However the boarder state alows 35% but almost everyone i know wants 20% or darker so how is there even money to be made here. I see other body/tint shops doing it all the time in the area up to even 5 %. Do you have any advise for me because i really want to get into this business but this law seems like a real problem. Can i tint the windows darker then 35% or am i responsible for it if i do? I feel that if i do not offer darker tints i wil lose about 70% of the work i could be geting.

Nah MA and Rhode Island, There is almost no point of starting a tint business down here unless you give the people what they want. 90% of people will not pay 150$ for a 35% tint job. The majorty of the people down here get tint for the look or the privacy. There are 2 shops in my area making tons of $ but they offer all shades of tint. There has to be a way around this. I really want to start somthing but without offering atleast 20% it will go nowhere around here.

I'd say do what you gotta do, if your a small part time shop starting out act like it. If you want to PM me I can explain.

Think about other services you can offer. If you can figure out window film then vinyl and ppf should be a no brainer. Car starters, alarms, etc etc
