    Thanks for this.

    Might as well save some cash and go with the Solargard.

    Yup, I'd suggest you save your money. The VK tints IMO are overpriced. Maganda performance, but K14 din naman for much less. Di lang kasing porma ng clear tints.

    Yep, thinking of getting Quantum again for our next car.

    Color not as shiny/reflective as the K series, may konteng pagka black..

    Huling gawa ko, parang 5.5K for an FD Civic back in 2009 or 2010, no windshield *ATA* * Santolan.

    Assuming the manufacturers' website info are all consistent (which they probably aren't), the Quantum series should have the highest TSER among Solargard tints probably kasi metallized (tama ba yung term?). Problem lang kelangan laging ilabas sa bintana yung epass/the nlex pass pag sa toll...

    Manufacturer specs/websites:
    Quantum 14 - 61% TSER
    Quantum 19 - 57% TSER
    K14 - 63% TSER
    K28 - 52% TSER
    VK 70 - 55% TSER
    VK 40 - 65% TSER

    Not sure if kasama yung visible light sa % energy rejected... but if it doesn't, then it probably explains why the K14 has better heat rejection than the VK70.

    I can dig up some shots of our cars mamaya na naka Quantum if you'd like, pero semi OT na hehehe.

    Sunday porma/highway car, clear tints all the way! VK40/70 =)

    Pero usually yung offered for free are the VKool OEM Series (lowest grade)

    Ford BGC's free tints are just the OEM-series. If you don't wanna spend anymore, just get OEM 20 (medium dark tint) all around.

    However, I think sports cars are much better off with clear tint (or no tint at all). Ask them how much it'll cost to upgrade to VK70. I'd expect around 15-20k additional for your car.

    sir kasama sa "total solar energy" yung visible light. to see the specs for heat rejection, kindly look at the IR (infra red) rejected

    TSER is the universally accepted metric for actual effectiveness of tint.

    VK70 has 55% TSER and 94% IR rejection, while K14 has 63% TSER and 82% IR rejection. I've had both on my cars, and I can say that the K14 definitely has better heat rejection than the VK70.

    With the VK70, you can still feel the heat of direct sunlight on your skin, which you don't feel with the K14.

    If you want maximum heat rejection, get either X05, K14, or OEM05.

    I have VK70 all around, and mas malamig yung K14 all around ko before. It's about the same as OEM05 all around, but with heat more felt even though di nagsstay yung init pag nakabilad.

    I had mine installed at Vkool's main office in Paco. Ok naman, but may bubbles sa front right window and dun sa dotted part ng upper middle ng windshield, parang hindi nakalapat yung tint.

    From what I gathered, the VK40 is supposed to be the one with highest heat rejection.

    VK40 has better heat rejection than VK70, but it doesn't look clear anymore, which kinda defeats the purpose of clear tint. VK40 looks a lot like OEM35 lang, which is 1/7 the price.

    If aesthetics aren't a major consideration, K14 is the best value for money IMO.

    Yes to both questions. But they have a promo now I think. Nung pinakabit ko VK ko yung kasabay ko nagpakabit ng X05 all around for his Tucson, 18k lang daw. Then nagpalagay din siya VK70 for his moonroof.

Anyone here have 'V Kool' tint?
