what is meant by no more than 25$ reflection?
is it more reflective at 1% or more reflective at 99%?
it sounds like the higher the number the more reflective it is. i just want clarification

mariok answers:

The reflectivity of the film is similar to the mirror like appearance you see on silver type films. The more reflective , no matter the light transmission, the more difficult to see in the vehicle.

Most car films are lower than 25% reflective and match the flat appearance of factory tint. There are exceptions so make sure before you get your installation.
