After reading whole day. I would like to share my thought with those who are inexperience as me, and looking for good tint + security + JPJ less kacau + reasonable. Don't shoot me too harsh. just my thought ok.
1. Don't go for ayam brand. You will regret.
- Agree, if consumer always can get Ayam brand at Groupon, Living or Deals.
2. Most recommended: Huper Optik (HO), VKOOL & 3m
- Go for International brand.
- Try to get more info on the brands such as certificate, manufacturer, technology and more.
- The more info you get, the more genuine and reputable of the brand.
- Eq. International Brand website usually end up with ".com" while Malaysia is "com.my"
http://www.v-kool.com/ and
http://www.v-kool.com.my/3. Security film, for eg: 4 mil, just merely thicker. In general: It takes ~ 8 seconds to break your window with 4 mil tint, while normal tint takes ~ 4. seconds.(subject to skill and tool)
- Yes, do not believe so much on those safety film video demonstration.
- Sometimes it cost you more to replace the film in case your glass shattered.
- Always remember that safety film is shattered resistant.
5. Some security film might not have good TSER compare to normal film. So you have to judge you want better heat rejection or want a few more seconds before someone break your car windows.
- Depends, some of the security film come with good heat rejection and of course additional cost for it !
6. My own experience: Regardless of seller and brand, your friends will get quoted price cheaper than you for rm300~500 for the same spec, or vice versa. That's kinda sad. That's why you only allow to PM for price (so called professional). No choice la. cari makan. i understand. but still a bit sad, cause different too much d. rm100-200 still can accept. but 200~500 is too much. Nobody like to be water fish. So for new guys, always ask your friends for price comparison!
- The best way is take time to visit the tint that you have selected.
7. Afterall, the most recommended tint spec I found is:
a. HO- FWS & RWS SECH60, All other sides C50S-4mil (security)
b. HO- FWS SECH60, All other sides C40
c. HO - whole car SECH 60.
d. VKOOL - FWS & RWS VKOOL elite, all other sides VKOOL SAFETY 4mil (security)
e. VKOOL - whole car vkool elite.
Brand/Model VKOOLElite SECH60 C70 VKOOLSAFETY4 C50 C40 C50S-4
Visible Light Transmittance 73% 59% 71% 72% 52% 42% 52%
Visible Light Reflectance 8% 8% 10% NA 12% 9% 14%
Ultra-Violet Radiation Rejection 99% 99% 99% 99% 99% 99% 99%
Shading Coefficient 0.50 0.54 0.62 0.61 0.58 0.53 59%
Infra-Red Heat Rejection 94% 83% 91% NA 69% 80% 67%
Total Solar Transmission NA 46% 38% NA 38% 29% 39%
TSER 55% 54% 47% 50% 50% 55% 49%
8. I research the spec above from official website. new inexperience should do so for your prefer tint.
- Well, difference people have difference requirement. However is good to compare all the specification before make decision.
9. Beware of double layer tint, or tint over 6 mil tick, it will spoil your power window. (too heavy i guess?)
- Put double layer tint on your windows is bad choice because
* Cost to replace is double when your glass break !
* Product and summon warranty usually is void !
10. In the end, balance between the price and the spec is what will you should consider to make your decision.
- Yea, but whenever you select the brand you should know your BUDGET !
