Best 3M tint series (ranking)

[supercar10]

1. CR series
2. BC series
3. CS series
4. FX series

The question is, are the differences between CR and BC alot in terms of price and quality?

[s_quilicot]

AFAIK mas maganda yung may "metal".

how so? di ko lang sure how both compare sa quality (heat,uv protection and visibility) buh the price of the CR is twice of the BC series i think.

[spyghost]

for me, its still the bc series

[supercar10]

yung BC ba yung may mirror-green-silver effect from the outside which kita yung inside konti upclose or black lang siya?

btw, mas latest ba BC sa CS?

[asmdriskell]

how much inaabot yung BC series po?

What's a good 3M tint for a white SUV? I'm looking at either:

1. The CS35 windshield + CS20 everything else; OR
2. BC35 windshield + BC20 everything else.

Tama ba that CSxx series is black while the BCxx series is medyo reflective?

sir kita pa tao sa loob with the combinations you mentioned. CS will look better with white suv.

thanks for the confirmation shotgun and supercar10. this was a really helpful thread for me.

*shotgun, yes, most likely kita sa loob. i don't have 20/20 eyesight so I figured I should stay on the safe side and didn't pick the darkest shade.

*SG, my current car, I think they installed 3M BC. Served me well for 8 years. So I think the CS will do fine for now.

Because the quality of 3M tint before is better than the 3M tint lately. Yung 3M BC10 / BC35 ko sa Trooper umabot din ng 8 years sa amin pero walang problema. Yung CS05 / CS20 nung Explorer ganun din kasi March '08 pa. Tsaka sabi ng Ford Libis galing daw talaga USA yung 3M CS na nilagay nila.

Pero yung BC35 nung Sportage namin, nadaplisan lang ng payong hiwa agad

Yung BC20 ko din sa strada nadaplisan ng steering wheel lock may sugat agad.

^ hirap din ang GPS signal dun sa strada ko dahil jan bro.

[zanecrypt]

Naku, big deal din pala talaga ung metals ng BC sa signals. Hassle nga un naka gps ka hindi ka naman malocate, tapos naka easy tag, di ka naman makadaan ng diretso... Sa ibang threads kasi sabi nila di naman nababawasan bars sa cellphone signal, hehe.

Problem nanaman, sabi ng SA, gita 3m tint lang daw pala ung free, buti nalang naclarify ko bago magkabit, pero naasar din ako, gusto ko iexplain hindi 3m ung gita! Waaaa. Sana kahit man lang 3m fx st baka pwede pa, pero gita? Ay sus. Baka ilet go ko nalang. San kaya cheap magpakabit ng CS? Taga manila po ako. Thanks.

I've never had any problems on 3M Black Chrome. Whether it be using EC tag, cellphone signals, or GPS location. The only time I had any difficulty was when I had a 3.5" thick glass windshield while driving an Expedition.. yet still, tumagos parin siya basta hindi lang nasa far right yun tag.

If you're not comfortable with the visibility of low VLT tints, then you simply answered your own question: get a tint with higher visible light transmission. Go for 3M Crystalline or V-Kool's VK70. Privacy and visibility are like... complete opposites. Fact is, your best bet is actually the 3M BC series as its metalized film acts much like a one-way mirror when viewed from the outside.

im planning to install a new tint on my strada na medyo mataas ang heat rejection but clear. makaka apekto po ba GPS natin pg ganung set up? newbie lang po ako sa tints kaya need some advice.

[gearspeed]

Kung nahihirapan kayo sir kapag gabi go for medium tint or clear tint.Yun nga lang mainit sa loob kapag medium tints.
Foggy pa ang BC tints compared sa black tint.
Ako din naghahanap ako ng CS sa ibang lugar puro FX ST ang meron.Sa main naman like winterpine sobrang taas ng price nila daig pa nila yung ibang stores. Yung sa motortown 5,500 sa passenger car kaso sablay naman ang tint installer kaya ayaw ko na umulit dun lalo na kay George of the jungle na ang alam na isagot sa customer ay "sir hindi na mapeperfect yan" pero sablay na sablay naman sa halos lahat ng windows..

[zanecrypt]

I checked v kool, medyo masakit sa bulsa, ay, hindi pala medyo, sobrang masakit sa bulsa, hehehe. By the way kakagoogle ko, may promo ata sa i-grab ung vkool tints for honda cars nga lang, i think from 36k ngayon 30k nalang or something.

Tama si sir jhnkvn di nga naman compatible ung privacy saka visibility. Kaya dapat perfect mix. Ung comfy during the day sa heat, comfy din during night sa light.

Ive narrowed it down to black chrome or color stable, siguro sa price nalang magkakatalo, magkano kaya sila ipakabit sa strada? Hmnnn.
