I selected the following mosaic tiles for our large kitchen Island. Work was completed this past weekend. It came out fantastic!

Ha! It may qualify:
aka screening/barrier from the weeds in the empty, adjacent lot. aka carbon offsetting the new-to-me 3.8L in the garage.

Nice! Any idea what the existing rear tint was? I’m assuming it + the 80% matches your 20% up front. We were just having that conversation yesterday for ours. Looks great.

You are legally allowed to tint a full front windshield to a light transmittance of 70% or more. It’s almost clear ceramic window film that will block 99% harmful UV rays, 76%+ InfraRed heat rejection and 43% TSER(Total Solar Energy Rejected). Sun strip(eyebrow) is allowed to be installed above the AS-1 line or 5 inches below the top of the windshield and must allow 25% VLT or more. This 50% ceramic is as light or dark as typical 70% regular film. I have ran 20% on front windows on many of my cars with no issue. I never go darker than that, even though we can go limo on rear and back glass. |

But yes, the match is much nicer using 20% up front. I'd also say 80% on the windshield is nearly clear but the UV protection will make a huge difference in heat shielding. Especially when driving. |

Home Depot. We were going to put it in the garage, but it would have entailed *a lot* of plumbing. There is already hot/cold water and a drain in the utility room, so...

We also bought this to go alongside the new sink and to use for shuffling books around the basement. I may grab another one of these for the garage. The height adjustment is smooth as silk and could come in very handy.

Home Depot has a special running where you get a free tool if you buy their $99 battery pack, which gets you two batteries and a charger. So that battery pack and a power ratchet for $99. But it's not the same ratchet I got because it's 3/8" only. If you're ok with a 3/8" drive, it might be worth it.
