Getting my new car soon, it omes with factory tint which i think is the cheapo ones
So can i tint on top of the factory tint to improve the heat rejections?\
What are the implications?
thanks

can.. it's call double tinting...But remember,if someday you need to remove it for any reason,you have to remove both..So don't install cheapo one on top the expensive one..

Most of the free tints were given by salesman and cheapo stuff! Just rip them off and apply a good quality branded tint film! But please don’t go to those Ah Beng accessories shops to get ‘tinted’!

Can. My sides came with a security tint and I didn't want to spend another few hundreds/thousand on security tint so just layer another high TSER tint on the sides.
I pulled out the front cause the tint I'm getting is way better. Did with 3M and they gave warranty on it as well. |

QUOTE(rtk74 @ Mar 17 2021, 11:16 AM) like i said before, u put 2 layers on it...2nd layer easily is over the legal VLT alreadystock glass alone is around 10+-% VLT already....1st layer i don't know....20-30+%....factory tint looks very clear but u never know the numbers so 2nd layer of tint has very slim margin to play with |
