The VLT (Visible Light Transmitted) means the amount of natural light that is transmitted through the glass and window film combination. This means a window film with a 35% VLT value will stop 35% of the natural light entering your car windows and allow in 65%. Therefore films with a lower VLT will transmit less light and therefore be darker and conversely films with a higher VLT will transmit more light and therefore be lighter.
Generally the majority of metallic films still perform better as far as keeping out heat than non-metallic films however there are now a small and much more expensive range of ceramic constructed films which have extremely high Infra-Red (IR) performance of up and over 80%.
In most cases a non-metallic film will give a "blacker" look in a pure sense; however the compromise from a pure black style metallic film is lower heat performance. We do have a range of low shine hybrid/ metallic films which will give you that black low sheen look while maintaining the high performance.
