Need some advise. Amongst 3M, V-Kool & Llumar .. which tint and grade offers the best TSER & security?
I have installed Llumar Diamond 6 for security in my previous ride but the heat rejection isn't that good. I'm looking for a change. Oh, it has to be within the VLT guidelines and for the front, Smart Tag friendly. This post has been edited by McFD2R: Aug 21 2014, 02:21 PM |

Having used Llumar Diamond 6 on my 3 previous & 1 existing cars, I had installed 3M on my new ride which I just collected on Saturday. And since my car is parked out in the sun during office hours, I can safely say that 3M has better heat rejection when compared to Llumar D6. Selected the Nano 70S for all my sides and 40S for the rear windscreen. Have to check again my front, can't recall now.

QUOTE(adriankhoo153 @ Jun 25 2015, 11:20 AM) Thanks but I think this time will take all 3M. Rear and side I'm using the same. For the front, I'm using Ceramic 75. No issue with Smart Tag for the past week of passing KESAS, Elite, Duta & LDP. Do let me know if you have any issues with Crystaline 70. I chose Ceramic 75 for VLT compliance with JPJ. But I note that IR is 97% for Crystaline 70. Ceramic is only 44%. Not too sure about Smart Tag but I presume it uses IR technology. So, with high IR rejection, would that block Smart Tag? My criteria for front is JPJ and Smart Tag friendly.Front use crystalline 70, rear use crystalline 40. Side window front nano 70s and rear side window nano 40s.  |

QUOTE(sleepwalker @ Jun 26 2015, 05:55 PM) Crystalline series is not Smart tag friendly (3M will tell you that before you install and will recommend Ceramic if you need to use smart tag very often) but your Ceramic 75 might not be JPJ compliant either. Did you do a VLT test after it was installed?. I'm using Crystalline 90 on the front to be JPJ compliant. Ceramic 75 might pass JPJ if your front windscreen is as clear as the crystal glass you drink your wine from. I was informed it will drop below 70% ... a risk I'm willing to take For 3M series only the Crystalline 90 (86% VLT) and the new Light Shade 80 (85% VLT) are recommended for the front to be fully JPJ compliant. Ceramic 75 has a VLT of 72% and as I mentioned before once you put it on car windows that already have a natural tint, it will drop below VLT of 70%.  I forgot to ask for a test. Will get a tester when I get the time, just so I have a baseline.This post has been edited by McFD2R: Jun 26 2015, 06:02 PM |
