Hi everyone, I'm looking for tint with budget around 1000-1500
1. Good heat rejection
2. JPJ compliant
3. No problem with GPS/smart-tag/rfid/phone signal
4. Selangor/KL area.

Looking at 3M, Llumar, Huper Optik and possibly Hamel? I read that VKool will block signal right?

You have to break the signals to 2 groups

- smart-tag on infra-red band
- GPS, rfid, phone signal on radio frequency band

All tint affect infra-red to to a certain extent. About half of the solar energy we feel as heat is infra-red, the other half are visible light + small fraction of UV.
To block the heat without making the tint too dark is to block as much IR as possible. The better/more expensive tint block IR even more, those with 97%+ IRR, you need to slow down to almost stop to pass with smart-tag, some toll booth will never able to pass. If you have smart-tag concern, get mid range tint with 85% IR Rejection. However new technologies like the rfid are moving away from infra-red, even the higher end TV started to have bluetooth based remote control.

All modern ceramic tints have zero affect to radio frequency. Just stay away from metallic film, you will be fine.

Although metallic tint has its advantage of reflecting the heat, it is no longer practical in 21st century. (you can feel the glass getting warm with ceramic film, glass is cooler with metallic film)
With metallic tint, when there are 11-13 GPS satellite found in clear sky, you left with 3-4 when got in the car. Yes, GPS still sorta work but location accuracy would be 10m radius instead of 1-2m radius. With that navigation software sometime confused and think you are at the next street in downtown.

Phone still works with metallic tint, but signal strength drops (even if the bar didn't drop significantly, the RSSI reading drops). This is typically non-issue because 4G is fast enough. You left with 10-15mbps inside the car instead of 80mbps+ when close to the cell tower, that's still pretty fast. Again, just get a ceramic film, then problem free.

Last note is most tint quote their IR rejection % in only 900nm to 1000nm range. Check out Xpel XR and XR Plus, the only tint around here that show the spec of both 900nm to 1000nm and also wider range 780nm to 1700nm.

Good explanation bro. That’s why I invest to this meter, almost full range of IR measurement. This meter cost me around RM4k!

And the Bruxsafol film I’m offering was signal friendly, is their patent nano coating technology. Of course, I do have metallic coating film as well.

Hahaha, this is the kind of attitude that will bring u a lot of customers! Bravo...
And this is exactly what most scammers will say! Thank you for highlighting that.

Since I got time, layan u a bit.

1) What exactly can the potential customer scam u ah? Ask u to tint and then run away issit?  doh.gif  Sounds like a certain bossku?

2) U dunno Andy is short form of Andrew?  doh.gif https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andy_(given_name)

3) U think scammer from the UK will have such beautiful number issit? Ppl came back to Malaysia from UK la bro...

You can easily apologise and I would've let this go. But no, you wanna argue. I hope this "helps" your "business" from here onwards.

LYN members, you're smarter than this and feel free to judge based on the available evidence. I rest my case.

Hello everyone, any suggestion for tint around RM500 - RM1000.

1. okay with any brand
2. access card, smart tag, gps, call signal need working good after installation
3. heat rejection should remain same performance after few years usage
4. security good to have (optional)


thanks for any recommendations

I would like to agreed on that
Even my car is not out yet, and will be only be tint this Saturday, based on my own experience dealing and nego with him, I dont think Kent is a scammer, trust me I deal with lot of scammer before this

He recommended me 3M at OKR, and i deal directly with the branch manager, and the branch manager saying Kent is his friend

You must understand, tint market is soo competitive, its a free world, free market, you dont like him just deal with someone else,

And sales is derived from price, I dont know why he dont want to reveal his price for you,,

Hi all,

I am getting my car soon. I am looking at tinting 3M's crystaline series. Anyone here has any experience with it?

I know the tint affects Smart - Tag in a way but what about GPS signal? This is my main concern
*
Using Crystaline for my beemer, it's good so far but affect Smart Tag and costlier by 30-40% of most brand. They have to cut a nice hole for you to put the Smart Tag.
