Not 5% Tint!

So i buy a kit from advanced thats 5%.. its pretty dark and thats what i wanted. i messed up and needed more so i went to our local napa to get some more 5% not the same brand but im thinking its gonna be close.. NOT EVEN CLOSE! this stuff from napa says its 5% but it looks like 35%... so i ripped my good side off and did both sides with the napa brand.... oh man i wasn't happy it was like. it might turn darker at least im hoping it will.

but you guys rememer my dad telling me to rip it off well i did and now its really light. just thought i would tell this story.
