Hi all sifus and pros, I'm looking for full car tint + sunroof for my x50 with good heat rejection (TSER > 50%), budget around 2k.

Previously went to 3M nearby and got quoted 3k+ for full crystalline series and 2k+ for crystalline on FWS and SFW with house brand on the rest (to meet my budget).
Asked for spec for house brand and it is IRR ~90% but no TSER.. abit worried, but might give it a try, also 5 years warranty.
Do you guys think I should go for it?

Also checked for Hamel brand tinted, all the spec looks too good for the price tag.. TSER/IRR on par with 3M crystalline series but half the price of 3M (hamel guy showed me discounted package price dunno is marketing strategy or not, the poster design also does not look very professional..), with 10 years warranty some more, 1.5k-2k can get 95-97% IRR, ~56%TSER with security films (5mil).
found some reviews about hamel brand on this forum too, some earlier posts said it is garbage.. while recent posts gave alot of raise..
Anyone here with experience with this brand? yay or nay?

Newbie here would like to hear some recommendations and suggestions from sifus here (open to other good brands too!)
Thanks in advance!

I PMed Hamel thru Whatsapp.. but I dont think they are the same guy.
Hamel guy also told me their tint will become darker/brighter following the sun.. not sure if its another marketing strategy

I tried to get Llumar at first but the specs for my budget is not really good.. tried different combinations but the price is still high. However I heard that Llumar is a good brand in terms of their security films so might give it a try after filling up my wallet first XD

Anyway thanks for the feedback

x70 full car with sunroof tinted with Diamond 6 for only 2.1k? at authorized shop?

got some great tinting deals from dog999 about a month ago.
I went for the 3M Crystalline series but can still feel the heat of the super hot sun these days if follow JPJ standards for the front windscreen (not saying that 3M tints are bad I think they might be one of the best already).
but laws are laws if scare saman must bare with the heat; if scare the heat must bare with the risk of getting bagua

Llumar is well known brand, and is popular with their security tint but comes with a price which is usually quite high. I have checked official Llumar website before it did state that they cover JPJ for P4-35. I was tempted for this too but over budget

3M CR is good in terms of heat rejection (although i still feel the heat for front windscreen due to high VLT) and has been around for many years but do note that it is not a security tint.

for the sunroof tint they usually give you their house brand, so better ask properly for the specs and warranty and feel the heat rejection yourself physically at their shop. Of course if you have budget you can ask for 3M CR tint too but it is quite expensive because x50 FS has two pieces of sunroof glass I think might add another 500+

yea.. should've just yolo and go for lower VLT
next time is gonna be many years later but i assume you mean higher TSER with high VLT (JPJ compliance)?

it still depends on your choice of tint regardless the brand, because most tinting brands have different grades too, i.e. if you choose RayTech, they have cheaper variants with lower TSER/IRR or higher grade variants with better heat rejection or security tint.

TSER value will determine the total solar energy rejected (or simply heat rejection). it is better to feel it yourself with the different grades of tints they have so you will know the difference. usually higher end ones you will feel lesser heat out of it. if you feel like the heat rejection is ok for the RM 1.5k variant you can go for it, everyone has their own budget and expectation

but be prepared if the TSER value is lower than 50% because it might be VERY HOT in msia

you did not cut hole for the smart tag but managed to get pass the booth? last time I was stuck at smart tag lane..
not sure if I'm going too fast or it's the battery is low (you know, the smart tag display don't really work )

but the next time I opened the window and used the smart tag outside it works.
