The roof allows more heat in than I'd like

Does anyone know if it's safe to put nano ceramic tint on the sunroof glass as well as the back windows to block more heat? I have the laminated acoustic glass so it's already darkened so I am thinking to get like a 50% or 70% film just to block more heat.

Has anyone done this and was happy with the result?

I have an appointment this coming Tuesday to get all of my glass, including the windshield and the panoramic roof, tinted, using this manufacturer’s products:

I am using the same shop that installed the same product on my ‘24 MINI JCW and have been quite pleased with its heat/UV properties. It’s really not too expensive either to have everything done.

I'm watching because I want to do this but I just haven't finalized on exactly what to use yet.

Do you have HUD?

I got the XPEL tint with the 99% heat rejection (forget the model name) and it's made a big difference in how much heat gets through. Highly recommend it. Now I can keep the sunroof fabric cover open as well.

Any issues tinting the windshield? HUD is blurry?
I have the acoustic privacy glass and I have tint on every pane and there's zero issues. Just make sure you go to a reputable place and get high quality tint.
