double car tint.... added protection?

[rfgoons]

Hi! I bought my car (kia Carens) two years ago with free 3m tint. It is a clear tint (I think it is crystalline but I am not sure). At first it is ok with us but lately my wife and the kids always complained about the heat and the lack of privacy. Hence; last week I decided to add another layer of 3m BC magic tint on the present tint.

Will the additional layer of tint provide added protection in terms of UV and heat rejection?

sir please give feedback on the heat rejection of your double tint. was the installation of the 2nd tint smooth and without any bubbles?

Having double tint will definitely increase the heat and UV rejection. In fact it offers more safety if the window or glass were broken intentionally or accidentally.

Important factor to consider is: when you put a second layer tint, make sure your first layer (usually the old tint) should be a good brand/quality and still in top condition. No point installing a new tint over your "Talong" (purple) color tint or old tint with bubbles or defects.

para sakin malaki tulong sa heat rejection.. 3M medium black 1st layer, platinum medium black 2nd layer..

Hey guys, buhayin ko muna itong thread.

Just like the TS, I had free tint from the Nissan dealership (Platinum Magic Tint, Very light shade), this was roughly 7 months ago, and now I would to change it for a darker shade.

Just want to know if it's ok to put another layer of Magic Tint on top of Magic Tint? Will it no be problematic in terms of reflections?

imho 1st layer magic 2nd layer black tint, may friend did a double layer of super black tint for privacy but driving condition at night really suffers.

i'm thinking of adding a layer of black shade tint over the solargard quantum on my FD... kung medium black baka sumobra dilim, most probably light lang... ok kaya Platinum tint? me black shade ba sila?

Guys a bit of a dummy question: I have magic tint wrapped around. If I add a layer of black shade tint (medium shade) to my existing magic tint, will it still have the magic/mirror effect on the outside?

TIA!!

paps ganyan din concern ko kase yung solargard ko na quantum magic effect e gusto ko pa paitiman ng konti so I'm contemplating na baka lighter shade of black nalang baka sumobra dilim kapag medium... yung brand nalang pinag pipilian...

sir did u go through with it?

i'm thinking of putting a lighter shade of black din on my platinum magic

[cjv_justice]

hindi ko na tinuloy sir... baka siguro pag marami rami nalang extra dough papalitan ko nalang ulit, siguro yung Solargard na black shade... uunahin ko nalang muna yung sa pick-up kase talagang pumangit na yung 3M niya...

besides noticeable parin yung mabilis na paglamig nung interior kahit nabilad yung sasakyan so +1 sa Solargard Quantum...

Sir I went through with it earlier today. Put Solargard Super Black on my existing Platinum Magic and wow it really is hard to see! But I only did the rear window and the rear side windows, on the outside naman it still holds it's magic/mirror effect on all windows which is what I wanted to achieve. I'm not sure if I'll further tint the front side doors.
