    Hello,

    Ask ko lang kung meron bang way para hindi tumagos sa loob ng car ung init pag nakabilad sa araw? Parang sauna kasi eh. Thanks!

    V-Kool V40 series tint would help. Will cost you 30-50T depending on vehicle.

    pareho lang ang insulation ginagamit sa bahay at ang nasa pic ni RC-V, it comes in different thickness lang. May binebenta ang Ace Hardware nito and mga upholstery stores. I believe it is sold by meter

    V-Kool V70 is clear, V40 is lighter than medium. If you want something more affordable but still with good heat rejection, try V-Kool K-series tint.

    any tint will diminish vision at night.
    some might counter, as per their experience, that it does not.
    well, that may appear to be under ordinary conditions. but in extraordinary conditions, which, i daresay, we can not predict when they will happen, the diminished ability will make itself known, often with disastrous results.

    That being said, is it the best thing not to use tint on your windshield( or atleast just use tint at the bottom and top portion of it)?

    In some countries, and for good reason, it is illegal to put tints that are darker than 70% and/or having a VLT lower than 90% below the AS1 line. This line is typically 4-5 inches from the upper edge of the front windshield. Though, it can vary slightly from vehicle to vehicle. You can put a strip of tint of any shade above this line, but only tints specified above are typically allowed below the line.



    There's an optical difference above and below this line. The quality of the optics below this line has better clarity than the part of glass above the line. In contrast, side windows including the rear windshield is only rated AS2 (some are even AS3) which are typically of lower clarity. Hence the importance of the front windshield's AS1 area as this is what any driver use to operate the vehicle 99% of the time.

    Mainit talaga sir specially pag direct sunlight mo naparada. Sakin maghapon bilad both front and rear windshield may heat deflector na, parang sauna pa din.

    What I do pag safe naman sa pinarkingan ko open 4 doors para labas mainit na singaw then mga after 2mins pwede na. Mainit pa din pero kaya naman na ng aircon. Bagong linis din aircon ko kaya mabilis lumamig.

    1. Buy a good window tint (full)
    2. Buy window visor (para pwede mo i-open ng konti ung window mo at ng makalabas ung init.
    3. Put your AC to fresh air

    4. Hanap ka ng shaded area to park.

    ^^^ Actually, you can tint front windshields as long as VLT is 70% or higher.

    Yeah, about that. I read that the tint's VLT should be 90% if using it below the AS1. At least, that is the DOT standard, as is most our own standards are roughly based on.

    actually, a number of states in the USA allow front windshield tints, with at least 70% light transmittance.
    but a number of states allow absolutely no front windshield tint, except for the top 5 or 6 inches..
    what is the phillippine regulation? i don 't know.. marcos forbade tints among the common tao during his reign...

    BTT:

    Aside from getting good tints, try to check your Aircon if its working properly. The quality of refrigerant can also be a factor. The difference of the cooling is almost night and day. Parang brand new car yung lamig.

    Just for reference, on my mom's car with ordinary tints, no problem kahit bilad. It can cool down the cabin in a few minutes. This car was recently serviced sa casa using original freon. While on my car, AC was serviced sa Banawe using ordinary freon, its cold but not frigging cold.

    original freon? ordinary freon? are there such things?
    but i do believe in an honest full charge and a half-charge..

    ^^^dr.d., yuo the freon is a factor. iirc, the good frein is made in EU Eufron ang brand. There are cheaper alternative which is almost 35% cheaper china made.

    But the later is not that good when it comes to cooling efficiency. All type of refrigerant may china and may eu.
