Marshalltown, Iowa
Iowa sets the window tint limits that apply to vehicles driven in Marshalltown, and knowing them before you choose a shade saves a lot of trouble later. This guide walks through how the rules are measured, how they differ between passenger and multi-purpose vehicles, and how to keep film on your car compliant once it is fitted.

Running film that falls outside the Iowa limits can lead to fines and other penalties. In many cases the result is a correction notice, which means removing or replacing the film and showing that the vehicle now complies.
Stripping out non-compliant film can be slow work and often leaves adhesive behind. Rear glass needs extra care, as defroster lines can be damaged during removal.
Iowa's tint rules are set out separately for passenger vehicles and for multi-purpose vehicles, and the permitted shade can differ from window to window. Visible light transmission describes how much light passes through the glass and film together, which is why the existing glazing matters as much as the film you choose. The diagrams below show how the limits are laid out for each vehicle type.
Passenger Vehicles
Passenger vehicles, such as sedans and coupes, have their own set of tint limits covering the windshield, front sides, rear sides and rear window.
A non-reflective tint / sun strip, is allowed Up to AS1 line as long as it does not go past the AS-1 line on your windshield.
The Iowa law allows 70% of light visibility for front side windows.
The Iowa law allows any shade of light visibility for rear side windows.
The Iowa law allows any shade of light in visibility for the rear window.
