Wisconsin market context
Why Wisconsin aftermarket shops grow on SalesThumb
Milwaukee carries the luxury demand (Mequon / Brookfield); Madison sustains a steady younger ceramic + PPF market. Green Bay pulls a meaningful commercial fleet + Packers-tourism wrap business. Salt-belt winters drive paint protection.
Wisconsin film tint laws
Wisconsin allows 50% VLT on front side, 35% on rear sides + back glass for sedans. Multi-purpose vehicles can run any darkness on rear + back. Windshield: top 5 inches AS-1 line. Medical exemption available.
SalesThumb's state VLT compliance check uses these WI thresholds at quote time. Out-of-spec selections trigger an auto-attached customer waiver to the invoice.
