You're right about vkool price.  Thats the reason the City I installed 3M to try as the salesman said almost the same (bullshited by him).  Thats also the reason why i go back to vkool for new car.

As I said "you get for what you pay".  I saw many people said vkool VLT 9x% and my xxx brand also same 9x%.  It's not the same.

My friend just got a new Forrester.  He might not want vkool, I suggested Huber Optic and not 3M.  Any Huber Optic user here?

My guess is the 3M specs that the salesman give you was not the highest IRR comparing to the VKool Elite that you previously installed thats y difference alot.
Other brand tint also have IRR 9x% and performance can say almost same like VKool when freshly installed, only difference is that VKool performance can last at least 5 years, while the other brands dunno performance can last how long

Not mistaken Huper Optik is under same company as VKool, where VKool tint is metallic type tint while Huper Optik is going for ceramic tint

Anyone can recommend a good shop to install 3M, Vkool or Raytech? After browsing this forum for some time, seems like this 3 brands are the best in the market.

A colleague installed it on his new crv, after 2nd rectification still got bubbles. Got fed up and didnt go back to rectify. Mind you this happened only few months ago. Installation was done by bangla apparently at subang outlet I think and he bought black beauty range

After reading this thread for some time, decided to give Totalgard a try.

Given that their workmanship is questionable according to some reviews here and the fact that i'm not based in Klang Valley, it means I will have to make a special trip up again in order for them to rectify any potential issues that may arise in the future.

Is there another installer with more consistent workmanship that I can rely on?

All specs are bull shit.  Few years ago, when install new H City for wife, salesman recommend 3M and also cheaper so we tried it.  Immediately after installed and park under the sun days later, I just keep quite but my wife (she dont know any spec or tech) notice it and said how come 3M is hotter compare to my car vkool when first go into the car under the sun.  Then go to smart tag jam all the cars behind... I ask her to open windows and put out smart tag!!!

Yes, I do agree on the 3M crystaline heat rejection.
I have my car fully tinted with 3M Crystalline 60 & 40 rest.
I can still feel the heat driving in the hot afternoon, worst if you're in a crawling traffic. Have to full blast aircon.

I went to 3M after many positive reviews on the Crystalline series.
Man, I'm so disappointed.

Before anyone question on my 3M film authenticity.
Yes, is original. Installed at authorised dealer with e-warranty and has the red/orange reflection water droplet seen on the windows.

Any recommended shops for V-Kool Elite in Johor Bahru? I checked https://v-kool.com.my/ and there are only a couple of shops, package is listed for RM3950. Only the shops listed here are authorized? Thx

Was quoted 5k for Vkool Elite and 2.5k for Huper Optik. Is Vkool worth the 2.5k premium? My budget is about RM3k but I don’t mind topping up if it’s worth it.

i using 3M crystalline for 4 years++ still very good heat rejection for my Alza . Better than irispro/total gard from my other family member cars . Price wise 3M 2.8k to 3k++ is already very good heat rejection compared to vkool 4k++ ohmy.gif

After lunch w friend, we walked to our cars parked in the open, i sat in his new X70 w 3M Crystalline asked him why so hot? We then went to my second hand 2016 HRV inside much cooler with the same tint. My friend insisted on his 3M tint authenticity as well.

If genuine, then 3M manufacturer has reduced the performance of their tint within the same range.

Hey, saw that you've been using Totalgard for quite some time, does the tint suffer low angle haze as bad as this?
