anyone heard about V-Zion tint? Recently my friend buy Kia Carnival which has an original tint (brand name V-Zion). He wanted to darken the tint for rear windows and rear windscreen to avoid prying eye on the car boot, and was offered 2 choice:
1) V-Zion, add-on darken layer, to VLT 20% (for rear windscreen, and rear windows), warranty 5 years. 2) Raytech, add-on darken layer on existing V-Zion tint, VLT 20% (for rear windscreen, and rear windows), warranty only 3 years. Any comments of which choice to take? Price about the same but Raytech have more IRR/TSER data showed in their website. V-Zion has limited info. Is it ok to darken the windows & rear windscreen to VLT 20% and not affecting visibility at night? The front windscreen and driver/front passenger tint will remain original tint (VLT 70%). |

QUOTE(ayamxxx @ Feb 26 2023, 06:35 PM) Yep but the heat rejection loss not that bad la. It's pretty clear now in terms of tint shade, but heat rejection wise definitely not as bad as not having tint. That I can confirm because my car had no tint initially. I drove without tint for a year and I remember vividly how hot the car is without tint. The cabin is never cool, only local areas where the aircond is blowing. When open door, the gust from outside is cooler. And the sunrays, it burns the skin. Am not feeling all of these currently.

Rhinepro diamond 11 user here. Almost 3 years and counting. So far so good but pricey. Warranty is 7 years though. Will see how long it last. Angry Clerk and Kr0ll3R liked this post
