Hi, the smart tag issue remain the same, need to super slow move in and almost equally fully stop only it able to detect. i guess just have to bear with it, so far the heat resist is good.

just 1 thing that i felt not happy is when after i complain to the hq, the respond from the person in charge are not so good, felt like a tai chi master. below is roughly the phone conversation.

me : explain the problem
PIC : all the raytech staff using it, none of the staff or customer complain about smart tag issue ( this i very much doubt it that none complain except me)
me : maybe im the 1st experience it but now i do facing the smart tag issue.
PIC : you just change your windscreen rit, it could be because your windscreen too thick cause the signal weak.
me : as i understand, the windscreen model is the same type as before.
PIC : maybe your smart tag device having problem.
me : been using the device for years, and confirm is not battery weak as i do change it to figure it out.
PIC : maybe just coincident the smart tag lane detector that u pass trough is weak, try use other smart tag lane next time.
me : each day i passing through 7 toll, all are smart tag lane, which is different area, wont be all of those lane detector is weak.
PIC : how fast u drive into the smart tag lane, u must drive very slow like below 10km/hr.
me : my car are standstill, as the car in front get through, i only move in and i not even hit the pedal, just let it roll in, it still will appear smart tag not detected and i need to hit brake and stop then it only able to detect.
PIC : it could be the liquid apply on your windscreen paper is not fully dry, try use it another week if problem still there u can call us again.

at this point i was so fed up, so i just told the PIC is ok la, i see how then.

btw i not try to attack the raytech, i just share my experience and maybe that is the only PIC that have such attitude and i no idea. no offense. peace

Dear Sifu's

I was offered Bellfort Tinting for my City

R85% V32% U99% T68% at RM2.2k

Is this brand reliable ? already searched the Forum - not much info.

Thanks in adv for your advises.

Does anyone know of Cool Master and ProCool brand? Was quoted rm2.4k Cool Master for 95% heat rejection type. Thanks

Thanks for the reply..It's City. How about llumar? Was quoted 2.1k for the same thing

Raytech or 3M or huper optik ?

Anyone try XPEL ?

And to all Sifus, HO,3m,vkool and others wish one the best for hear rejection/safety film/good price?

yeah you are right and thats I thought but clarified with the 3M tint shop. its all crystalline but they add their own extra security film provided by 3M for those that prefer 50 cause as you said SCS only 40 and 70.

Woah are you depressed or what, take a chill pill.
As I mentioned its a full crystalline 3M with extra layer of their security film for people that doesn’t want SCR 40 or SCR 70 which are too dark or light respectively. yeah you are right the security film is their own addition may be I never wrote that clearly. You sound like a you can get a great deal of 3M, perhaps share your recommendation ?

Even with without security film I get quote about 2.1-2.2k after surveying 4 3M authorised dealer shop, kepong, puchong, bukit jalil and kuchai lama.

What are your thoughts on Llumar Crystal 6?

How is the heat rejection and the GPS and smart tag signal like for HyperGard?

Is the price RM2.8K for Honda city us usual price? Or is someone else able to quote me a lower one? In Penang Island

Used Huper Optik but not 3M.

Huper Optik's heat rejection performance tends to deteriorate over the years. I could feel the heat in year 3 onwards.

I'm a huper optik user.. Surveying out in case there's other new brands which is good since planning for new car. Since I want to a tint shop today tested my huper optik which has been on the car since the day I bought it.

10 years and 11 months..

Im user of huper optik for past 4 cars. I cannot move beyond this brand for tinted and no reason to switch other brand. Literally perfect

I used that Totalgard tint at my wife car, a local car, x70. Reason bought is due to spec offered, IRR, TSER and proven on meter not just saying only. And most due to price offered at rm1k and warranty covered for degradation if happen.

For 3 months using it, it performs quite well. Not feel hot at all during noon time.

But I reserved my review to check if it performs well on 2nd & 3rd year of usage.

Thinking to tint my camry, but i want a rfid and smart tag friendly tint, any brand should i go for?

Depends on what vehicle you drive. Previously I tot smart tag cannot work for all cars (3M), but some like an owner of Toyota Harrier (i think) says it worked. But for Honda, at least Civic and City, it does not. If cut hole, sure can work lar if the tag aligned with the hole but do you really want to do that (cut hole) if your car smart tag don't work for 3M. If it does not, there are many other tints with good quality to look at (if you use smart tag a lot).

My ALVA tint is going 2 years now. If I remember it right, I just avail the mid spec so I paid 700 including removing the old tint. So far so good. I don't have complaints. What I noticed is that it keep my car cooler. As if the aircon is new.

But I agree, I think the problem is the workmanship and the people installing it, Not the tint or product itself.

Anyway, I recently acquire a 2nd hand car and I think I will give Alva another try.

This is just the nature of businesses here. Many problems we Malaysians face with all sorts of products are usually not the fault of the products themselves but the quality of the installation (I just got back from an office block that had a nightmare VRF air-con installation).

With Alva, at least you pay for what you get — semi-decent product, questionable workmanship, low price — but in Malaysia you will also find man companies with high-end pricing that practice dogwater standards. I won’t name names, but there is a very famous “premium” ceramic coating company with branches all over the country, and in every branch, the work area is a joke. The customer cars are so close to each other in the same room, staff working on cars at the same time. You will see one car with workers applying the coat, while the next car barely 6ft away has someone polishing it. They don’t know small bits are flying off the polishing pads and floating in the air, falling onto the car that has the coat in the middle of curing?

Let’s not even start discussing shops using J&J baby soap for tint application instead of dedicated applicator liquids. Heck, they can’t even get the grammar right in this country. “Tinted” is past tense/participle la, tauke.

I saw many good reviews about Vkool, when I try to research there are very minimal stores in PJ area. Can you guys recommend any around PJ area? based at ara damansara
