QUOTE(masahito @ May 17 2020, 07:00 AM) actually when u go into any shop to "install" tintthe price they give, half or more of it is consist of workmanship aka installation if the installation is done correctly, u wouldn't have any problem but if the guy's workmanship is bad...all that money will be down the drain if u want to save money, i suggest u buy the tint but find someone that actually have years of experience to install it for u to avoid future problem(because there will be no warranty) |

QUOTE(masahito @ May 19 2020, 03:20 AM) thanks. i just read post before me, someone said that one guy has x70, he buy quality tint film from aliexpress. He pasang with local shop. nothing wrong with buying tint onlinemight try my luck with taobao but bear in mind, there are no warranty to go back to that's why i recommend to find someone really good to install it once and for all....instead of someone that is not that experienced or selling tint and offer very long warranty so u keep going back to claim warranty if the installation is done right, workmanship is excellent....u wouldn't have problem with it for a very long time...prolly until the car is sold |

QUOTE(Jay Chua CC @ Nov 20 2020, 12:00 PM) Max is 5 years. Even the best like vkool will degrade after 5 years. No such thing as long as the car not to say u can'tas long as u can find someone with great workmanship, sure can but i just don't trust a majority of the installer's workmanship out there of all my years experience of having tint... workmanship > all i've seen way too many cases of tint having problems due to poor workmanship, some is partly because they just want it cheap if i can't find great workmanship, i rather not reinstall |

QUOTE(ellimistx99 @ Nov 18 2020, 04:23 PM) Considering getting a tint. I understand RayTech not that great from here, but it's definitely the cheapest! there is no such thing as cheap and qualityI don't think I'd like to spend more than 1000 on tint. The main thing I'm looking for is protecting the car insides from UV because I have leather seats. The VLT is mainly just for privacy. Are there any recommendations for cheap quality brands? For example, if I keep my budget at under 1k which brand would be best within that range? the 2 word do not appear together in the tint world u want a at least "acceptable" tint, you have to start with a minimum budget of RM1k(this is for whole car, all 6 windows) anything below is is not just bad in quality, it might not even work in UV filtration what you're paying for isn't just a good tint film but also a good workmanship and do not mistaken that dark = good UV filtration...it doesn't work that way and it's also illegal as well |

QUOTE(Jay Chua CC @ Nov 20 2020, 02:18 PM) the tint will stay there in perfect condition but the heat rejection already degraded, so the tint will be there just for show. yes, workmanship is just for asthetic but i do not want to go back every 2 week because got problems with it due to poor workmanship eitherWorkmanship is for the asthetic not the heat rejection. heat rejection will degrade over time and at most 5 years the 5-10 years warranty means nothing but wasting the customer's time, kept going back to claim something that should be problem-free u wanna know how important is workmanship? i stumbled upon a brand call nano tint recently guess how did they install their tint?...as shown in their picture at their social media ![]() |

QUOTE(I'm V-Kool @ Nov 21 2020, 11:13 AM) If you are the installer/technician you probably can comment on the technique. We have seeing hundred of car being installed with a lot different way as there is no specific guide doing it. I do agree the workmanship is equally important because in the eye of customer it is aesthetic. But end of the day, it revert back to how much does the car is expose to the UV/Heat and the film quality. If you have cheap quality but great workmanship the film will not last long. Take a look at those OEM installation such as Proton or Perodua. It start to bubble up within 5 years OEM installation always have great QC before they deliver the car, thus the workmanship is at the best Oh there is no product in the world that could last as long as your car, if yes all the business will die QUOTE(Jay Chua CC @ Nov 21 2020, 11:26 AM) Im highlighting this too but he seems to be swearing on the workmanship rather than quality. At the end of the day for him, the tint is just to look nice without any heat rejection lol. some people might think it's just aesthetic in the eyes of the customerAnway, based on his track records, well, he is famous for being know-it-all but the info he is providing errr..... but customer being customer...when the tint has problem, where will it end up again? the seller isn't it?..it always goes back to the seller especially those that promise 5-10 years warranty the seller has to dump more money on tint and more time reinstalling it i've seen my fair share of picky customer nitpicking on the tint, they really got the time to go back to claim that warranty although not me |

QUOTE(I'm V-Kool @ Nov 21 2020, 06:35 PM) Yes you are absolutely right on the workmanship point but workmanship and quality of the film is 2 different issue you're selling V-kool..you have bothJust like your car tyre and engine but not those other midrange tint out there though sadly i saw one here are even looking for sub RM1k tint which i'm pretty sure "quality of film" is no longer in the talk already which is somewhat equivalent or worse than those OEM on proton and perodua already |

QUOTE(I'm V-Kool @ Nov 21 2020, 09:40 PM) Man I still sell and still give product warranty 5 years never made assumption about workmanship = product qualityAt my shop, normally warranty claim arise from 2 different perspective PRODUCT DEFECT or WORKMANSHIP End of the day just don't make assumption workmanship = product quality just saying i prefer workmanship over all...that's all less problem/hassle for me because i can choose product quality but i can't really choose workmanship...it's rare nowadays and the fact that in many cases workmanship problem is blamed on product quality instead This post has been edited by MR_alien: Nov 22 2020, 03:39 PM I'm V-Kool liked this post
