for 3M in Kuala lumpur...... i recommend you to go 3M ampang.. alongside MRR2, nearby flamengo hotel...
I tinted there before raya... really satisfied with their workmanship, friendly boss.. and so far 3M is the best heat rejection tinted i ever used..

It's not under HO。
But Smart Window, the dealer who carries the tint. (Another in-house brand tint? )

http://www.smartwindow.com.my/famos.html

The IRR% specs displayed on the website are good enough, the highest grade tint Famos X3,  IRR% reaches 98% with 72%VLT.  ( surpassing Vkool elite IRR% 94) notworthy.gif
But where's the TSER figure?
*
Hi. Yes it has high IRR and UV rejection.

But I can't see TSER as we'll. as what he said he installed S3 for me (which is not available on the website yet as it hasn't even launched in Germany).

TSER is one of the important factor for tint right?

If without TSER, what will happen?

Now I am considering to ask him to tear all tint and install HO for me as promised.

Or should I ask him to add another layer of security tint without additional charges as I feel I am paying a very premium price for a cheap FAMOS TINT.


Do u think it is possible? Thank you sad.gif

Will the TSER for different type of films such as below provide different heat rejection:

Dyed or Colored Films
Sputtered (Metalized) Films
Hybrid Films
Ceramic Films

For example, Lets say all above type having same TSER of 50 (for discussion sake only). Will one type provide a better heat rejection compared to the other?

Thanks in advance.

I would say Sputtered (Metalized) Films. Why?
Because metal always a good conductor compare to others material

Now a day, too many window film brand in market. Basically, 2 things you can must know when choosing the film.

1. Discover the "Brand" that selling USA Original Product. icon_rolleyes.gif
Actually only few brands in market are selling genuine USA product, the rest are not. But how do you know about it.
Tips :
a) The brand that can reveal their USA manufacturer supplier name and website.
b) Brand that recognise by their USA manufacturer too.
c) Original Packaging with brand logo (Many local brand come with blank packaging box)
d) Brand logo stamp on film. (Most USA brand come with logo)
Discover more here : http://raytechfilms.com/customer-info/

2. Make sure you pay for original "Brand" product. icon_rolleyes.gif
Complete Step 1 before Step 2.
Many "Black-heart" dealer carrying USA brand but selling other product to customer to make more profit.
Most of customer do not aware about it.
Tips:
a) You can easily google the original product of the brand on their website.
b) Try to look for the logo on the film before installation.
c) Make sure you visit the authorized shop to get the right product.

Extra Informations :
a) Do not trust too much of the film specification like IRR and TSER. We find many many brand given fake reading.
b) Test the film before and after installation to make sure you get the right tint.
c) Do not trust on non-authorized dealer. Example : Other accessories shop can offer Raytech product. It is impossible. Finally, you getting fake Raytech product with no Raytech logo on the film.

Good Luck.

1) Let me ask you, comparing 50kg of crayon, 50kg of iron, 50kg of crayon+iron and 50kg of sand. Do they have same reading of their weight?

If your answer is YES (they are same weight), please go to No 2. If your answer is NO (they are different weight), please go to No 4.

2) What if 5 years later crayon melted and vaporized, iron oxidized. Will they have the same weight again?

If your answer is YES (they are same weight), please go to No 4. If your answer is NO (they are different weight already), please go to No 3.

3) If TSER given same reading, all heat rejection will be same. Because this is the reading of the heat rejection. Just that we don't know how real is the reading given, how durable and how long the reading can last. Of cause you need to compare the IRR reading, glare reduction, and etc too to determine a good quality solar tint.

If you agree with No 3. Please proceed to No 4.

4) Thanks and good luck to you.

Personally, I will stay away from dyed films and metalised films. The former may be just colour and will fade soon enough and the latter is said to interfere with some transmission for your in-car gadgets.

Hi all! Need help!

The car accessories people installed a tint brand FAMOS and charge me RM2K for it.

He said this brand FAMOS is under HUPER OPTIK, which isn't launched yet.

May I know any car tinter can verify this ?

Anyone heard of this brand FAMOS?

Thank you!!

FAMOS is not under Huper Optik brand film bro....
It's totally different brand. Quality and price also lower than Huper Optik hmm.gif

PS: Remember don't add another layer on top of it. It'll break the official warranty.

I noticed that when I wear polarised sun shades, the windscreen of other vehicles turn shades of purple, blue, green and yellow. Is this normal? Because the red spectrum colour has been filtered hence the polarised shades are spanning out the spectrum of light colours except red?

Nowadays website is easy to setup. With website it easier to sells brand. If FAMOS is under HO, then you should refer HO official website only.

Metallized Window Tint Film
Metallized films are created by applying very thin coats of reflective metal to the tint’s film, ensuring a high-level of safety from the sun’s UV rays while being able to maintain some of the thinnest film possible. This is advantageous as it provides advanced safety and privacy, all with minimal limitations of visibility from the inside of the tinted windows. This type is very useful in vehicles in which being able to efficiently see through the windows is important to your safety.

Ceramic Window Tint Film
Ceramic Window Tint films are at the top of window tinting available on the market. Using modern nanotechnology, the film is thinly coated in ceramic which provides the upmost in protection from UV rays and the heat of the sun. This type of tinting film is generally the thinnest and most effective available, but also will be more expensive than other types of film. Ceramic Window Tint is perfect for anyone who desires the highest quality of tinting. This type of film is also extremely durable and scratch resistant compared to other styles.

I was really interested with HO but when comparing TSER, it's not very high compared with other brands, even diff by 10%. Anybody used HO, Raytech and 3M before can comment on the experiential effect of TSER differences between these 3?
