QUOTE(kkk8787 @ Jul 30 2017, 01:13 PM) i understand that when people remove tint demister may be spoilt. How do good technicians avoid that when removing Depends on the glass quality and technician skill but chances are always 50/50 If the demister spoiled 1. Just ignore 2. Claim windscreen insurance

Let wait and see the further info. As far as I concern, it had nothing to do with windscreen because all the tinting company need to send their product to get the QR code which comply with the new MS2669 standard. This method similar to those SIRIM standard and end of the day business and consumer will suffer.

QUOTE(kkk8787 @ Sep 13 2017, 06:02 PM) seems like a good start. I did e mail the AAA email to ask about it butthe reply, well Ill say non committal answer. Talked to Puspakom branch ketua few years back when my VKool failed although JPJ legal, he said tint can pass JPJ but fail Puspakom coz every car windscreen has different VLT. if he let all JPJ legal one pass, he said not logical coz some already low VLT even u install highest VLT also, total VLT will fail. if the new MS2669 will solve this dilemma , that will be a good news We are required to pay for each test and it is not cheap, therefore most cap ayam cap itik film will die because they cant support the test. End of the day, the extra cost will pass to consumer. Our government is well good in planning the system or law, but end of the day always lack of enforcement. This MS2669 standard rules & regulations are still not clear.

QUOTE(Kitty Zhang @ Oct 19 2017, 10:09 AM) Hope the Raytech and/or V-Cool rep here can answer my query... Under the new JPJ 2018 rules, min. VLT still at 70 front/50 front sides/30 rear sides and rear? Under your product line-up, what's the darkest tint that can pass the new ruling and can get the barcode sticker? Please advise  Add: 1 thing I find funny, my previous car tinted by Llumar, they actually tinted my whole car with VLT 50 tints...which basically means my front windscreen tint cannot pass JPJ/Puspakom, yet they gave my JPJ warranty on my invoice  FYI, the new rules only applicable on the car registered on 1st Jan 2018 onwards. You can consider V-Kool Elite/70 for front V-Kool 55, 40 or 30 for side and rear

QUOTE(WannaGetBuffed @ Nov 2 2017, 04:11 PM) Ceramic 60 for front, Ceramic 40 for driver& passenger, Ceramic 30 for all back The suggestion above are not JPJ friendly nor compliant but very cooling and comfortable to block sun ray in the hot afternoon. No burns at all in the afternoon sun. I did a review of HO after 7 years+ of usage. Deteriorates after 5 years but still better than other brand i used. I have not used any security series from HO as installer say they kinda suck in heat rejection compared to normal HO. Maybe some rich forummer would like to try and review. If front change to SECH 60 it will perform even better

QUOTE(jamespaul @ Dec 27 2017, 12:55 PM) i’ve been saying this about Raytech for awhile.... I have been thinking that there is a magic number of TSER for the amount of VLT. My take is that for a VLT of 70% Max TSER is only 50% +-2% But they can claim higher because of better IRR coverage. Ah well. Our V-Kool 70/Elite with VLT 71% comes out with TSER of 55% http://www.v-kool.com/automotive-window-films/V-KOOL70I am not sure how they calculate this TSER but I have been told the percentage is from the summary of the 3 main areas 1. Visible Light 2. Ultraviolet 3. Infra Red https://windowfilmonline.wordpress.com/2008...-to-understand/

QUOTE(Lord Gitsy @ Dec 26 2017, 10:33 PM) Hi bro, there is no film from any brand that can make your car "not hot" for parking long. My car is using Raytech RX IRR 95%, I tested the car just a little bit warm within 1 hour parking under the sun. Still feel great with it. For example, although the car is tinted with solar control film, maybe only 5% of heat coming in from window, what do you think if this 5% of heat is keep coming for 2-3 hours. The heat will trap inside the car and become hotter and hotter. From my personal experience, it take only 5 minutes to cool down my car, although I park my car for several hours. Install a great tinted film will give you better result  If you still have any worries about it, we hope you can bring your car to us for a solar meter testing. Our window film consultant will solve your problem  Raytech Tinting has designed a special warranty card system to make sure our customer purchased a genuine Raytech product. Raytech principle only distribute limited amount of Standard Warranty card and Hologram Product Label Stickers along with the stock ordering by each Raytech Authorized Licensed dealer. We have only one type of standard warranty card. You must make sure you received this standard Raytech warranty card and two (2) pieces of Hologram Product Label Sticker are pasted inside the card, one sticker is the product code for front windscreen and the second one is product code for the rest of the windows.  In addition to this, do remember heat transfer comes in 3 ways 1. Conduction 2. Convection 3. Radiation Our windows film only help to prevent radiation transfer but at the same time convection and conduction is happening. Thus your car interior will become hotter and hotter if the car is park under the sun for certain amount of the time. This post has been edited by I'm V-Kool: Dec 27 2017, 08:03 PM

QUOTE(jamespaul @ Dec 29 2017, 04:28 PM) Is VKool still suffering from fading? I wonder who makes the OEM tint for VKool? More accurately we called it discolouration, yes and it is depends on the usage and normally it happen after 5 years. Not sure where does the OEM V-Kool come from but it happen after Eastman Chemical bought V-Kool from Solutia http://www.eastman.com/Products/Pages/Product_Selector.aspxIt is a good marketing because we have high end, mid end and low end film and will not oversell the film
