Hiya all , hope you are well.

I noticed that usually for car tinting, no matter how good a tint brand you choose for the rear, and side (front/rear) passenger windows .. The shops would usually use another tint for your Front Windscreen .. Usually it would be their 'In-House' brand/no brand tint films , and they would try to " up-sell " you to get a "higher spec" tint with better IRR / heat rejection for the front ..

Please pardon me if I am not fully aware here, because so far my past experiences over the years are only tinting with Independent Tint Shops ... I have not directly gone to those big name brands HQ for tinting before.. (My budget are usually not that high for tinting my cars)

So far... I find that, even though sometimes the specs of these 'In-house' tint films are stated around 80% - 95% heat rejection ... I still find it very hot and does not reject heat well ...

Now I am actually thinking of going to re-tint the front windscreen for my older Honda Jazz , the front windscreen is quite large .. And very hot these few days (no rain) ... Few shops quoted me RM300-400+ for about 90-95% heat rejection ... But I'm worried they will just use generic OEM tints (rebranded to their shop name) , and the heat rejection is actually not at high as they claim...

What would you do if you were me ? Which tint for front windscreen is better, in your experience ? Or should I just save my money ?

Thank you
