QUOTE(bashlyner @ Dec 17 2021, 04:58 PM) Oh wow really? The workshop people told me no issue with smart tag but I am not sure what is the IRR they talk about. I should be installing the Infusion Pro 60% VLT on front window, not sure about the IRR. Would it be safer to go for 90% IRR? I think it will work if using 90% IRR for smart tag

Had installed Infusion Pro yesterday at Kajang. No chance to witness the effect yet due to the weather. However for Infusion Pro they say it will disrupt Smart Tag signal so end up need to cut a small space at the corner to allow the use of Smart Tag. I am not sure about Ceramic Plus better you ask them.

The reason choose this tint last time was due to smart tag. Maybe the other tint had a combination of metal + ceramic to get better heat rejected value, hence with metal tint, it will make smart tag won't work.

Based on 1 year 2 months of usage of this tint, it still works great on heat rejection. But smart tag definitely won't work, I resolved it by RFID.

An authorized dealer called SPK Auto Custom, recommended by Totalgard HQ since I unable to visit their Kepong HQ in weekday. Totalgard HQ actually recommended another workshop in Shah Alam but I checked the workshop review in Google it's not very good so I went to the Kajang one. The workshop is quite thorough in cleaning up after installation I have no complain there, they even test all the wiper and headlamp sensor for me to show there's nothing affected. The charges is the same as what Totalgard advertised if you installed in their HQ. Beside the distance I need to travel to Kajang, I would say the overall experience is quite satisfactory. One extra thing to mentioned, the workshop cut the corner on the upper right of my windshield to allow smart tag signal to go through, but they then also added another strip of dark tint at the top of the windshield so it would still look dark and not awkward, unless you look closely then only can see the part they cut out.

They replied saying Infusion Plus is better than Ceramic Plus, clearer and better heat rejection. Most likely will go with the better one. What VLT did you guys choose for your cars?

Hi All, Mazda CX5 quote me RM1.8 for this Llumar tinted film.
May I know if this worth it or any recommended?
Because they said if I tint outside, it could be void my warranty.

Anyone have any experience with Honda recommended tint? I know they have 3M and Ecotint. Recently went to Honda Sri Utama and they recommended this "house brand" called Global Window Films by 3M, not sure if they mean riding on 3M brand name. Any sifus can comment? From the 3 packages, doesn't seem to be JPJ compliant, only got this 3.

Fresh install is good but after months will degrade. Oem brand usually from china /taiwan made film but they rebrand thierself (inhouse brand) 3M is a good reliable brand that manufacture their tint film and import from USA. I send u a pm if u need more details, or can check my topic for window tint/coating . Thank you.

Spend some time for reading and install it at reputable 3M shop and get online certificate after install on warranty. I get good offer at Llumar Kajang for Diamond 6. Get few Llumar branch and call them for current offer. This post has been edited by ayamxxx: Dec 22 2021, 07:10 AM

Do you guys usually remove tint at the back (windscreen) or just double layer with previous tint?
Scared if remove previous tint, heat filament will damaged.

QUOTE(neo_himura @ Sep 30 2020, 09:31 AM) Hey guys. Any recommendation for tinting and coating in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah for my coming soon X70? 1) Already surveyed Raytech but after reading some comments here, I was thinking of getting other brands. Other than that how is their Radium Q3 coating quality? 2) There is a shop providing LLumar and another shop called Tint-Shop providing V-Kool. But I havent seen their price list yet. Are these two better than Raytech and can provide better value for money? 3) Not sure if anyone selling 3M tint here. Couldnt find any info in google or fb. 4) There is another shop call Ceramic Pro GT i think providing coating service. Anyone has experience with them? I'm open to any suggestions. Thanks guys  Hi, I m getting a new X70 as well. Could you share yr experience, which one u finally go for & how much? Thanks.

Had 2 experience with 2 cars, name change required remove all tint. Last time VLT not unlimited as now. Get to proper tint shop, their skilled tech can open the rear tint without any issues. Don't go to accessories shop, go to tint shop. Rm50 This post has been edited by ayamxxx: Dec 22 2021, 10:15 AM
