Hi bro, actually 6mil safety film is working quite ok with most of the power window, as it is not so thick. As professional opinion, Raytech does not recommend safety film that above 6mil as it will burden and may disruption the power window after 1-2 years. Somehow, thicker film does not means it is better in term of safety, laboratory report on physical performance of safety film in more important. Raytech safety film special engineered between 4-6mil make in USA world class manufacturer, which provide sufficient safety features to consumer car used. We do not make safety film thicker than 6mil.

Did my cars tint at Raytech after contacting Shawn.
After a few weeks I can say is good.

The tint I picked for City is 65% dark, look quite dark during noon but not so dark at nite... must be daylight reflection more so is look darker at daytime vs night.

Guys,

Any good tint recommendation for my Camry front screen only.
I have been using 3M for my car unfortunately I'm sick n tired of winding down my window whenever I have to pass along same tag lane.

I'm looking for front screen tint replacement with high uv rejection rate n smartag friendly as well as I'm only planning to change my front screen tint only.

Kindly advise.

Jack

I've jz finished a tint job on my baby, and it looks F***ING DARK... When I was in the shop I saw a tint like 75%, it wasn't all that dark, in fact it looks JPJ passable at least. When I went to collect my car at night, damn, do I have trouble driving it.... It's a pain driving at night =_=.. Since its my first time doing tinted I learnt my lesson... I know its impossible to lighten a tinted... I have to peel it and re-tint my side and front window to 40%

Bro, you make mistake here.

You should put the sample near to your glass windows look at it
different angle because your glass is not 100% transparent.

Hi sifu! Is it advisable to tint the sunroof? Is it necessary?

Hi, normally I will recommend very dark window film for sun roof, VLT below 30%. That make you feel comfortable and cooler. Some people they might like very clear film for sun roof too. This is depend on your personal favorite. By the way, for your information, Sun roof is not part of car window that restrict by JPJ rules and regulations.

Hi bro,

1) If you wish the window film compliant with JPJ.
a) Front Windscreen = above 70% VLT
b) The rest window = above 50% VLT

2) If you can accept dark film, Non compliant with JPJ. But clear vision on day and night, and people can look into you.
a) Front Windscreen = at least 50% VLT
b) The rest window = Between 30% - 40% VLT.

Window Film below 30% VLT is too dark at night. Hard to see clear on night vision.
Be smart to choose your film.

To solve your current problem, I may suggest you just change the front windscreen tint film to brighter film and see how the result.
If the problem unsolved, then you change your rear windscreen tint film.
If the problem still unsolved, then you can change another 4 doors tint film.

change to latest smart tag machine instead... the slim one heard work better with thick tint...

Do the side windows' tint take twice as long for it to cure compared to the front and back windscreens?

My driver side and passanger side have to change, cuz its too dark. Its 75% dark-tinted. Front I can see but my top side, I tinted too much. I paste a black sticker 10 inches wide. Need to reduce to 7 inch... Haiz... So I just change my front to 40% tint and side to also 40. Rear to 50%.

Anyone ever heard of Winshield window tint specialist? was recommended by my SA for tint, however the only info that i can get is their website and facebook page.

and nobody has ever review or give comments whether it is good, cheap, expensive or giving any problems after installation.

seriously need opinion or info about window tint since its my first time.

website page--> http://www.winshield.com.my/home

facebook page --> https://www.facebook.com/winshieldtrading

thanks

Yes, because FWS and BWS normally is 2Mil film and curing period is about 2-3weeks
For side, depends on the thickness of the film and normally 4Mil will take about 1-2 month to cure.

This is HOMEBRAND, thats why no much international info for this "Winshield"

Winshield is not a great brand, yet selling expensive with its Korea Window Film. My previous CIty was tinted in Winshield, SS2 few years back as recommended by my salesman. It is one of the "so called" good brands product, my car is tinted with RM1800 tint and I actually feel so hot. Thus, I make a complaint to my salesman, my salesman say the tinted is fixed can not be taken out, he suggest me to tint a second layer so I can feel better.

Somehow, there is no JPJ guarantee for that. What the hell is this all about Why should I tint second layer and trouble myself? Why the film is so out of standard? Recommend by salesman as good brand, maybe this brand provide good commission to the Honda salesman?

After read though these window film thread, what these sifus mentioned are right, never go for brands that are unable to review the brand's background, manufacturer, supplier, and those brands that you never heard of before. It's a waste of your money

wah.. thank u bro for replying my question. luckily i didnt install the window tint yet with winshield window tint. Quite worried abt it because no one share or talks abt it in any forums. And from the website also, it didnt mention about the brand of the product used for tint.

now, might considering the Huper Optik for my window tint.

Thanks for the input.

On the other hand, are the white spots at the sides curable?

Yes, we call it as shampoo mark. Normally it appear on Safety Film
This is because shampoo chemical reaction with the film adhesive (glue)

It might take up to 3 months for all the shampoo mark disappear depends on the weather and thickness of the film.
If the shampoo mark still there after 6 months, you can go back to shop and ask for warranty claim.
