Any recommended tinted shop with good workmanship in Penang? Budget around RM500. My priority is more on heat rejection.

What is difference between IRR vs TSER?

No matter what, don’t get the one at my siggy.

I doubt you can get good one for that price.

Remember: dark doesn't mean good heat rejection.

You might want to try UV Kool. I have used it for two cars and am satisfied with the price and installation.

I paid around RM800+ for my Axia and RM1200+ for my SUV.

Can I know the spec you choose? VLT %? IRR %? TSER %? thickness?

Dont need to go for branded , those wat cool wat tech their products like N years ago those time no ppl fight with them thy put high price to chop9 ppl . Now alot brand spec/quality can fight with them all under 1k . Juz need to read review of the products . Im using 1 sputter HD firm RM500 the effect better then > RM1k tint .

RM500 cant get quality tint... if u get also last you 1-2yr..then deterioate
malaysia is all round sunny, invest in a quality tint.

U use how long already? can i know the brand of 1 sputter HD firm? What spec you choose?

for RM500 u will get a set of tint that is actually worth RM100.

increase your budget to 1k+ then you can get some decent tint like Hamel and Rhinepro.

Agard sputter HD
Visible Light Transmission (VLT): 70% - 05%
Darkness Options: 30%, 50%, 65%, 80%, 95%
Infrared Rejection (IRR): 98%
Ultraviolet Rejection (UVR): 99%
Total Solar Energy Rejection (TSER): From 65% to 85%

I'm seeing more and more cars with tints that look like bubble wrap. caveat emptor.

RM500 hard to find with the one that has good worksmanship + high quality one, maybe at most you can get is just for 1 window

mine I spent on nearly 2k for a good tint spec on all windows, I forgot what I bought but hardly feel any heat from sun, but downside is smart tag I need open window to detect and pass the toll

if your the type fall for marketing, then go spend several thousands

parasol brand
all MPV glass = <RM1000
subcompact all glass = <800

Sputter HD will affect RFID scanning sensitivity? Heard that it will block the GPS and mobile phone signal as it uses metallic coating. Does that true?

Raytech wanted 1.4k but decided for M8 for half the price. Quality more or less the same. Heat rejection also same. Workmanship also more or less the same. Doubtful any tint can last 3 years without bubbling or peeling.

The el-cheapo brand used on my MPV already 1 year plus and still ok.

My condo parking using RFID no issue and my phone GPS with google map / waze also no problem but it still depend on each brand's sputter product becoz sputter hv kind of metal inside

Or u can try Totalgard tis brand . Go search this name in facebook or u can check another thread in lyn forum that discuss on TINT

i feel 200 - 500rm tint is all the same, OEM and big claims. Just get someone who does a good job.
More important you get a window shade in your car.

3m tint warranty 5 year, aint cheap for top spec (crystalline,sedan rm2k+) but good workmanship .
Worth it imo

Car thread (fast n furious section) got a guy selling the service

if budget concern, just tint front and rear windscreen.

4 windows pakai magnetic shade je.

For good heat rejection, go for higher TSER as possible
