Just a friendly warning. Don't go for Vkool. I regretted, but it's not my decision. My Vkool started to peel off, sadly. A new car with bad tint. doh.gif Go for better tint, like Llumar, as suggested by you. More worth it.

Could it be the workmanship instead of the tint? There's no excuses for poor workmanship - for the amount of money you pay, it should be problem free. I would definitely blast them to hell if I had the same problems.

Luckily, my brother's Camry and my Corolla have not had any problems with vkool.

I suggest VPS security film as well. It looks like a decent tint as I've always seen it featured in Hypertune.

I don't mean to create trouble in here, so just speaking out my experience with Vkool so far.
My dad's car, which tinted 5 years ago, have a big problem since 2 years ago. The outer part of the film has changed colour. The colour is similar to petrol on tarred roads.

And my car, not even 1 week after tinting already peeled off a bit. Grr... Really cannot stand of the quality anymore.

Very sorry to hear about your bad experience, if I were in your shoes, I wouldn't use vkool either and make a huge noise in the papers or magazine.

Now, what I can do is to wait till my dad's Vkool completely spoil, then I'll tint Llumar for him. I've heard positive feedbacks regarding Llumar.

im using vkool and yes, it peel off after 3yrs+. but i think it can be claim warranty within 5yrs. im just to lazy to claim it.

zweimmk,
im interesting abt security film, mind to share more info regarding VPS? does it comes with IR,UV,heat rejection?
the alternative i know is Llumar but can't find the heat rejection info.

any other suggestion? if not, i'll get back the vkool security film coz the heat rejection is high. and guess im already change car within the 5yrs warranty period.

I would prefer you to get Llumar. Don't go for Vkool anymore. With that kind of money, go for security film, which covers solar and security.

If I'm not mistaken, that Caldina in Hypertune got broken in fix Palladium 9 after that incident, right? Surely is expensive, man.

Added on August 7, 2008, 11:20 amAs for the tinting How is the 3m Crystaline? I got a special offer for RM1600 somewhere near my house. But I do hate their 3M logo, it makes me feel like some ah beng car full of stickers.

Just take it out. I took out my Vkool emblem also. Looks stupid.
They tint my car with lousy quality and workmanship and expect me to help them to advertise?
Darn... The more I think, the more I'm angry.

So assuming RM 2.4k for the Mazda6, it's still cheaper than the V-Kool option?

It's a bit more expensive than Vkool, seriously. But with that price, you get solar and security tint (basically 2-in-1 tint). For me, I think it's worth it.

I seriously have no idea why also. Not even 1 week. I want to complain to my boss already because he helped me to tint.

Yeah..obviously his Vkool started peeling off, he can go back and get it fix FOC and why would he now go for Llumar? So rich arr??

Llumar is for Accord. Vkool is currently on new car.
