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.

3M Crystalline 70 confirmed no problem to use smart tag.

Hi bro, thanks for your interest on Raytech products.
Both tints are GPS friendly, just the Ultra 70 will have slow detection on SmarTag.
Raytech Q70 is friendly for GPS and SmarTag as well smile.gif

I have recently been quoted RM1.8K for Llumar T4-50. The specs are:

VLT: 50%
TSER: 45%
IRR: 90%
UV: 99%

Thickness 4 mil.

Would this be consider as an entry level range? I was wondering how come the price is so steep, presumably is due to the brand is it?

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.

Bro,
How much roughly do you paid for the Raytech tint??
I just need a ballpark figure as a guidance.
Last time I used Ecotint Raybarrier for my FD and even after 6 years I am truly satisfied.
What happen to Ecotint? Nobody mention them here.

The branch is pushing for SunFighter tint.. They have it on their demo car. The colour shades is nice..
They are offering me RM 1300 for a 4mill security tint. TSER is claimed at 50+% (Cant remember exactly).
Anyone tried this brand? Forget to ask the warranty

Thanks

Hi bro, to a genuine USA product, the most important aspect you must know are :
a)The product you pay for it, is original or not?
b)The product you pay for it, is good quality and genuine from USA or not?
c)The specification of the film you pay for it is true or not?

1. Ask about USA manufacturer detail.
Maybe most of the tint shops might claim that their products are from USA, but when asking about the USA manufacturer info, no answer will be given. Do some home work, online check on this matter. The genuine brand will normally reveal the supplier of USA manufacturer information.

2. Make sure the product is not "Home-brand" or not original brand.
Some tricky dealer may input other product which is not original one, sell as original product and given a "new name" this call "Home brand". You guys please online check on the original product name and spec before enter the shop.

3. Original Packaging and logo stamp on film.
All original USA product is come with standard packaging and the film is printed the brand logo. Be aware when you can not find any logo on the film when you tint your car.

Bro may pay a visit to the seller shop to try understand the point and do more research icon_rolleyes.gif icon_rolleyes.gif

ECOTINT Penang warranty is difficult. Front windscreen kena PUSPAKOM tear off, so I called them up for warranty. Denied... saying, I quote "How I know the one that kena tear off is our product?"

It's ok, I thought, malas want to layan this people...

Now use 2V Tint.

It is covered. They chose not to replace it.
If the tint and glass meets VLT of 75%, it can stay on. Unfortunately, most windscreen glass are pre-tinted, making the combination lower VLT than 75% so kena tear off.

as far as my experience with puspakom last week, it either u clear of the tinted, or else u will get Failed for puspakom. U can ask runner there for their experience as well. most will agreed, that better off to clear the tinted before meet Puspakom

my case, even it already no-tinted on it, it does not mean my windscreen and rest is 90% VLT, there r slight chance it will have less Vlt % on it.
