The only reason I would see someone doing that is to have some cool design with two tone tints. Other than that, just take off the old tint and put some really dark tint on.
now i'm not expert on this, and maybe im thinking too deep into this thread (that happens when you've been staring at a screen all day at work). but if i were you i would take the existing tint off or else it will look MUCH darker than intended. Here's my reasoning:
Say you have 20% on there right now. that means that of 20% of light gets through, and 80% is blocked correct. Now if you put 10% on top of that, won't that take 10% off of the light getting through the previous tint, not the total 100% that would normally be getting through??? Does anyone understand what I'm trying to say?
Maybe I'm just thinking too much about this. I could be wrong, but I think the percentages change when you're dealing with layering tints...god i need a drink....
