Anyone here have 'V Kool' tint?

[mqavila]

Sir LACars,

How much would good tint be for the Kia Carens? Also, can the new tint be placed on top of the existing tint of should the old tint be removed first? I'm just apprehensive about the possible damage to the defoggers... Thanks!

If the tint was installed recently ( less than a year ) dont have to worry about the defoggers. We have a solution to be applied for removing the tint without harming the defoggers provided the existing tint hasn't faded.

Hence, I suggest having the old tint removed, so to also retain the warranty of the new film.

F.y.i If the tint has come from the casa, they normally use a sub-standard film under their freebie program, unless ofcourse you insist on branded films like Vkool, Solargard, 3M etc. to be installed.

The substandard film if not replaced asap, fades after few months or maximum upto a year and then sticks to the defogger. This is where the problem of the deogger comes in, it stops functioning the moment you scrape of the film.

Its best not to rely on the freebie and get something else like mudguards etc from the casa instead of the tint.

Well.... the Kia Carens comes pre-installed with 3M tint so at least it's a good and reliable brand. However, the pre-installed tint is fairly light so it doesn't really do much to shield the passengers from the sun. I'm thinking of having darker tint installed once I have my unit (so brand new pa).

So... how much is full tint for the Carens? Can you give me several options, sir? Thanks!
