Here is my personal experience after researching window film for my new car for months.

I finally got tinted with Raytech Cheras.

Spec: Ultra 70 for FWS and RX 6mil for the rest

Review:

Raytech Cheras customer representative was very friendly and helpful on explaining and demo. The tinting was done in about 2 hours. Towel was used and no shoe or dirt marks on my light beige color leather as instructed to be very cautious.

I followed the instruction post-tinting and waited 2 weeks to see if there are any defects or dust. Meanwhile I am relieved that the heat resistance is superb and as advertised and you would feel only a little under the sunlight.

However there was few issue regarding dusts and on my FWS and Side window, I arranged my appointment for the warranty and get back to retint.

They are very helpful in identifying the dust and helped me to retint the windows to perfection without any further questioning or denying, I have got to compliment them for the good responsibility and professionalism. They have retinted 2 times on the same window to perfection with no dust at all.
Only one small thing is that when they retint my left rear window there was no towel used but luckily my power windows and indoor ambient led light still working.

My driver side window still got some dusts and will return to retint after my car coating is done.

SMART TAG: 10/10 (No issue at all, pass through with 100% so far with low speed)

ELECTRIC GATE: 10/10 (No issue at all, the 434 remote signal can send from 20m away)

HEAT REJECTION : 9/10 (At par with Vkool Elite on my other car, only a little heat under the sun)

WORKMANSHIP: 6/10 (Dusts spotted at all panels including RWS, maybe due to busy/peak hours and the lack of towel when retinting on my rear window)

RESPONSIBILITY: 10/10 (Retint to perfection without hesitation)

CREDIBILITY: 10/10 (So far)

Overall I would recommend Raytech for the good heat rejection of RX (98% IRR), credibility and responsibility of the workers.

*Will continue to update in the future and share my experiences/reviews on this tinting job after months or years.
*
So the Raytech Ultra 70 and RX 6 mil tint is on par with VKool Elite in terms of heat rejection? Impressive. In my experience, the Vkool Elite has good heat rejection, the best I have tried so far. Not that I have tried many tints but the VKool Elite is definitely better than the Huper Optik Sech60 and C40 in terms of heat rejection.

Mine is installed with Wingard Royale, spend 2k after discount.

Spec wise: IRR 90%, TSER 60%. Got better product, Wingard Regal, IRR 95%, TSER 75%, but above my budget. Both JPJ compliance.

SMART TAG: No problem
AUTO GATE: No problem
HEAT REJECTION : I say it good, dont feel any sun heat anymore. Been putting the car outside for 3-4 hours during noon, seem like not much heat.

WORKMANSHIP: Depend which shop u visit, mine do in Kajang.
WARRANTY: 10 years, so anything i can do visit here.

You are absolutely correct, V-kool Elite so far i think is the one with best heat rejection with smarttag friendly feature.
My Vkool Elite still very comfortable and little or no reduction in heat rejection after 7 years.
I opt for the Raytech only for the securty features.
Raytech performance still under testing and will update after months/years in case if the heat rejection drops.

I would have opt for the 3M Crystalline 70 if theirs is smart tag friendly. I think their specification is quite true and not over-rated. Only that you have to trade the good IRR with Smarttag, see which one you prefer.

Judging from the Smart tag friendliness I think you would know how "real" the IRR heat rejection as advertised.

There are just too much tinting company/house brand with OVERRATED specification such as 95% IRR & more than 50% TSER which is more "HEBAT"than big brand such as 3M and Vkool with cheaper price. Once you pass through SMartTAG without slowing down as if there are no tinting, scorching skin under the sun, you will know how it is like.

Having thoughts of changing my current tint.

Since it is risky to remove the tint at back window, is it possible to leave it and do the front windscreen and side windows?

And would they charge cheaper or same price as installing all sides?

I followed my friend to Raytech Georgetown last week. Saw a comparison on another brand product which shows 95%IRR on the catalogue but when Raytech salesman use meter to test the product, the reading is a bit higher than FX which is 75%IRR shocking.gif . Meaning FX performance of 75%IRR is better than some brand outside who selling 95%IRR. Price wise...was at reasonable level.

My friend upgrade his front windscreen film to Q70 (90%IRR) and the performance  is really good. thumbup.gif
I think my next car might want to do same combination. Hope to get good price there. biggrin.gif

Hi bro, thanks for choosing Raytech and rating for Raytech products. Sorry for the workmanship problem and we will try to improve the workmanship in the coming time and hopefully can be 10/10 from our customers. For your info, there will be little reduction gradually in heat rejection after few years for window film because every products have its lifespan and depend on our usage. What we guaranteed is the heat rejection will always good in 7 years. You can contact us anytime if any problem happen on the film. We are glad to assist you smile.gif

Nowadays, every time I enter my car and I feel the immense heat burning my face, I will think of Vkool. Well, if you don't try the tint you won't know, in my case choosing the Huper OPtik based on goo reviews here on the forum. Turned out to be a bad choice. No more Huper Optik for me next time.

Good to hear the raytech's performance in heat rejection is good.

Sorry to hear that, but sometimes buying tinting is more to trial and error type.

Unless you have few cars or few friends that willing to try all the type of tinting to find out the good ones.

For that I am lucky to have few friends from different brands to try all the type. thumbup.gif

Lord Gitsy, just wondering how can we check the degrading of heat rejection? Do you have any device in your shop to measure the rating?

No worries, i dont mind sharing it here but will try my best not to offend anyone.

First I tried few times with the Groupon tinting offers RM 160+ to RM 499 type, from 60% IRR to 99%IRR as they claimed. Well, it is better than without tinting at all, but the specifications are not as advertised I afraid. You can feel the difference by comparing those with big brand similar IRR item. Some big brand 65% IRR is better than those 95% IRR security from groupon.

Tried Agxxx, it is better than those groupon one but inferior to the big brands.

V-Kool Elite on my 7-year-old car and the heat rejection still performing well and I dont need to retint. Only bad thing is one of the window started peeling. Overall definitely worth it for 7 years.

Just tried Raytech U70 and RX 6mil, so far feels the same with the V-Kool Elite but of course heat rejection slightly lower. Probably due to Solar film vs Security Film, need to sacrifice some heat rejection to security but so far quite okay.

Lxxxx tint on my friends car, Pal. Titan. series all heat rejection not as good as compare to the VK Elite and RX6mil.

3M havent got the chance but soon after my friend going to tint it with Crystalline 70 and Nano70s.

Thanks for compliment and support. Every single product would have their own lifespan and I would say yours can last 7 years means that you take care of it very well.

I have notice you guys keep talking on V-Kool Elite, but do not install on your own car?
Maybe want to test out others film or out of budget? (No offend, just asking)

By the way, have you guys heard of V-Kool 55 which the performance is even better than V-Kool Elite and JPJ compliance?
