  Window Tint comes in various colors and percents. The colors range from bronze, gray, and charcoal. There are other colors but they aren't legal to put on cars in Oregon. The percents vary from 5% also known as limo tint to 50%. The percent refers to the amount of  light that the tint allows through the window.  Dark tint like 5% means it allows 5% of the outside light to pass through the window.  20% tint lets only 20% of the outside light through the window  and so on.  You can easily enhance the look of your vehicle by adding window tint. Even the lighter percents of film like 50% can make a dramatic difference to the overall look of your car.

Portland Oregon Window Tint Law

Oregon State law requires that all tinted cars carry a Tint certificate declaring what percentage of light is passing through the glass and film. They refer to this number as the Visible Light Transmittance or VLT%. If a motorist is pulled over for tinted windows they are required to provide a certificate proving the car was tinted within legal limits. The law requires that the meter reading be 35% or higher for all windows on a car. Many law enforcement officers carry a meter and will perform a test prior to writing a ticket. If your VLT is lower than 35% be prepared for a hefty fine! The picture above is an example of tint on a car that would not pass the meter test. The limits are different, however, for other categories of vehicles. There are limits on how reflective the tint can be too. It must be less than 13% reflective. That means mirror type tint is completely illegal. Red, green and amber colored films are also illegal. In order to be in compliance with Oregon State Law a motorist with tinted windows on their vehicle must make sure it is within these legal limitations. They are required to keep a Certificate in the vehicle (along with proof of insurance) at all times proving the windows are tinted legally. Otherwise they will be cited. Tickets average $350 in the Portland area. If you do not have a tint certificate and your car is tinted, then get a meter test immediately. And have the shop provide you with a copy of the results so that you can put it in your car as proof of compliance. If the test shows you are not in compliance, fix it quick  before you get ticketed.

Roof Moss Portland OR Why is it important to have the moss removed from you roof? The answer is simple, roof longevity. Moss grows rampant in the Portland Metro area. Roof moss removal is key if you want to extend the life of your roof. It is more cost effective to maintain the roof rather than ignore it and have to deal with the consequences of repairing or completely replacing it. A roof has to be able to dry out completely when it is not raining. Having the roof periodically cleaned allows this to happen. There is a danger involved in allowing moss, pine needles, leaves, and debris to pile up on your roof over the years. The moss and debris trap the moisture, holding it firmly against the roof. Over a period of time the moisture weakens areas of the roof making it prone to leaks.
