Hi, for the IRR, did they mention the reject percentage was on which waveform length? Paper data not able to tell how good the film, please go for real test.

For the tinted film, need consider VLT, film itself absorption, internal and external rejection from the film self absorption and so on. Is very complicated methodology to use to define the film quality via paper value. It do affect from your car window thickness and so on.

The simple way was test under heat box. Good film will not be cheap. But cheap film does not mean it can’t use.

If you very particular about the film can protect from skin cancer, market do have, but no cheap.

Personally think it still have to balance on the Budget. Good luck to you bro. If you at JB, come and visit, will share more info with you, not force buying😅.

sometime u can get cheap tint with good rate IRR (90-95% IRR) and verified with the 3M Meter.
problem with cheap tint, it degrate too fast, 1 year can drop to 80% IRR, 2nd year to 65% IRR. The degradation is not covered on warranty

Bro, you are experience👍🏻. I not sure the 3M meter, normally and usual brand was linsheng, but the meter was not accurate. I’m planning to invest on EDTM meter, which was most value and closer to professional measurement method. Professional measurement easily cost RM50k!

This EDTM cost about RM4k. Is cover full range of IR measurement. I’m serious about my business. I will invest this EDTM, its performance almost match the professional tool😬

@barca96 - good tinted can last for 10 years, normal once maybe can last for 5 years, cheaper maybe 3 years, so is about the ROI. Btw, what type of car you going to tint? Car size also will affect the price.

car size is quite subjective.
even a 2 doors car are same price as normal sedan cars

There are few new tint brand with a degradation warranty. Can we as customer get good backup from this or there are plenty of T&C?

Currently on Wingard Royale which was installed 5 years ago, and it seem the tint still work great on high noon time. Was considering to continue the same brand for a new car or might as well try new brand but prefer without any issues of smart tag + remote gate

Hi all,

Looking for tint for my Proton X70 Premium X, can anyone quote me? Requirement as below:-

Prefer security tint with at least 80% heat rejection
Front: 30
Front Side: 50
Rear Side and Back: 80
Sunroof: 90

Thanks.

I've only used VKool and I have to say it serves me well for 10+ years.

Is there any alternative brand today that is as good? Or more innovative brands?

I don't need security btw, parang better than security film

Hi all Sis & Bro,

Don’t too panic on the value show for tinted film. Here was a very good video for the explanation. This Solar Guard film was very high grade. But, I unable to get it with value for money price😅

FYI, that is SOLAR GARD and their LX Series is comparable with V-Kool high end series with 7 years warranty.
You can have both combination as both brand are under one roof

Hi Bro,

Not to anti Vkool, is just some explanation for what is IR and how it calculate. Vkool is good film. Just the price was expensive.

Bro, Vkool was a very best tinted film, but price too expensive. My supplier told me, his tinted film quality can beat the 2nd grade of Vkool film. That’s why he dare to laser print this homologation at his tinted film for quality assurance.

If you want to bullet proof film, the window might now able to wind down. But bullet proof was to protect so window must be always up right😅

That time my friend ask American to test, but AK47 bullet still can punch in very close distance. But for shot gun, is bullet proof. Not check for the film. Is not typical use.
