Hi all,
This is a version2 of the "HOT TOPIC" that we had discussed for the past few years.
Thanks all the supports who had actively utilized this open forum as a discussion stage.

Please continue from this thread.

By the way, we had active forumers on Raytech, Huper Optic, 3M and VKool.

Do come in and discussion here.


Thanks!

1st Thread:
https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/418792/+3020

Summary:
1. Raytech, V-Kool, 3M are good in heat rejection. As long as it is original products. Beware of imitation products in the market.
Raytech Official Website
V-Kool Official Website
3M Local Distributor


2. Front Windscreen Films are very important where the most important thing is that housebrand can't compete with huge brands like Raytech Ultra70, V-Kool Elite or 3M Crystaline 70.

3. Beware of house brand in the market. Go to the window film specialist outlets to seek for more advice.

4. Always seek for warranty card for consumer rights and privilege after investing in car tinting.

Thanks all. I had add in the V1 link and closed the previous thread.
PM me if need to add more suggestion here for improvement.

Agree with this!

SaharaX and Llumar are different categories. Its not apple to apple comparison.

Hi All,
Seeing this topic has been so active here, can anyone share with us on that brands are recommended and not recommended here??? The message here is to bring out the awareness on being a smart consumer, beware of house brand products and most importantly is BE ORIGINAL.

Right?

Please ensure the product you choose are original product.
I just had a bad experience back in 2013 where I tint my Mazda6 in Subang (Behind RT Pastry), spent RM1800 with Huper Optic. Ended up, no warranty card and its a fake product! How do i know its a fake product? I have 3 cars with Huper Optic C40 and this 4th car with the same product performance is totally different. My mistake as well where the time when the shop install my window film, i was not there to ensure there is hologram or marking printed on the film liner.
Shop owner keep telling me there HO will send the warranty card to my house and I had wait for 2 years. However the 1st 3 cars that was tinted with Original HO comes with warranty card.

Hi Bro,
yeah......once enough, scare already. but i didn't really go there for 1yr, and never notice that they closed down already. Ahhh.......my tint warranty gone case already since they tell me that I can only go back to that shop for warranty. Never provide me any warranty card at all.



Anyhow, I learned a lesson here, hope everyone aware of unethical tinted shop.

Hi,
Yes, Ipoh should have 3M. Please refer to below. However, just need to beware of house brand "3M" like my HO case.

3M Auto Film Sunfree Tinting Centre
Auto Accessories & Supplies
Address: No.3, Jalan Raja Permaisuri Bainun (Jalan Kampar), Perak, 30250 Ipoh
Phone:05-255 5808

Raytech N85 is JPJ compliance as my sister's car is with N85 and its stated in the warranty card.

Beware of housebrand bro......

whole car at rm2800......thats alot!

You can easily get it at 20% less from the price u have. But maybe its more expensive there in Sabah.

Hi Bro,
There should be a little warm as visible lights still penetrates through the windscreen. Dashboard will absorb heat from Visible Lights and therefore heat is there.
However, good things on Ultra70 (Not sure what film you choose for side, as I am using Ultra70 @ FWS and V97 @ the rest) is it dissipate heat fast enough. My current ride cools down in less than 2mins.

May i know which films you install before Ultra70?

V-Kool is freaking expensive!!! U got it from Tint-Shop?
Which range or series for Solar Gard?

Hi Bro.....meaning u want to install the tint at the outer surface on the window?
If so, then confirm cannot.

Hi Bro,
Beside genuine Llumar, 3M, V-Kool, Huper Optik and Raytech, I would say most of the rest of the brands are with different technology. Imagine, if you select "Secure 90" with rm999, why not go with genuine products like HO or Raytech with a little bit of topup? Of course Llumar, 3M or V-Kool is good too, but I guess (Just my assumption), their price should be very far from rm999.

Hi,
Anyone have experience with RhinePro? Sounds like US Brand, but can't find the manufacturer. Price is very flexible too!
Any comment on this?

Actually I'm worried that is a rebrand Korea film and doubted on its quality.

Yea....i also just get to know that Raytech has new products after u post it here.

Bro,
You are comparing the wrong level already.
Cool World is house brand where we can't even find their manufacturer in USA. I went once and their product couldn't satisfied me. If you want it to be cheaper, try search in groupon, you might have a chance getting cheaper price from Cool World.

As of I know, XD-3 is lousy, even XD-5 is still not up to standard yet.

Hi Bro,
While i am searching for FSK's background, i found that you are the only one who asked this brand before.
Though enough to do research for its background and furthermore the price is freaking expensive among housebrand.

Again, my friend who wanted to buy a car in Penang and Salesman introduce this brand.

How about Armourguard or Armourshield? I saw some of my friends do Vkool Elite for front windscreen and sides are either Armourguard/Armourshield. Else they will recommend REM.

Sorry Sorry...wrong info....hahaha.
Anyway, is Armorcoat under VKool too? How about REM?
