Tsikot Window Tints

[hbk]

what tint color would look better for a (pumice) gold colored car?

mas maganda ba black o silver shade?

[Ungas]

Depende po sa color ng B pillars and windshield seal. Kung black pillars mas bagay po ang darker shade. Kung body colored B pillars magic tints could be fine also. :D

Malas naman , dapat pala nung first tint palang Dark na agad. So the only remedy is patint ng panibago and tapon na yung luma. Sayang naman kasi ayos pa.

Btw, ayos sa advertisement Ungas ang NSK bearings sa may soler/benavidez ah!!! Sigurado kita ng lahat!

Pwede mo naman patungan yan old tints mo kung branded yan. Basta ang ipapatong mo quality branded din para di sayang. Kung US Guila or Taiwan brand ang unang patong, wag ka na magdalawang isip at ipatanggal mo na yan. :D Btw, kung may balak kang magpatanggal ng tints, ingatan yung sa rear defogger slits. Nung tinanggal eto akin, di ko napansin yung thin aluminum na nakadikit at nagpapainit nito. Ayun sira at ayaw gumana.


NSK sa Benavidez... kay United Bearings yan. Mayaman naman sila eh, kaya nila yan, hehehe.

Hello.

Can anyone recommend a Good Car Tint brand?

of course, 3M is well known in the market for durability...but is there any brand which is better or co-equal but cheaper than 3M?

Often I hear, Solar Guard/Solar Gard ; Classis, etc.

Can anyone refer me to sites where I can get indepth knowledge of car tint?

And if possible, please state the price.

My preference is Magic Tint.

What kind of tint should I put on a new car? I would prefer a tint that will not hinder vision at night... but at the same time, keep nosy outsiders from peeking into the car.

At the car dealership where we just bought a new car, the totally uninterested salesman mumbled something about how that the 3M brands were great. It was available in about 4 shades, and it was supposedly scratch resistant. However, I'm not sure if these 3M tints are bad for night visibility.

Another brand was the Platinum tint. It was supposedly a "magic" tint that offers good night visibility and scratch resitance. I don't know if 3M has the same features... but the bored salesman claims the 3Ms are better, and I honestly don't know why.

Any advice or suggestions? What brand, type, and shade of tint should we use? I'd prefer to keep the cost under P5000. Right now, I'm looking at getting either 3M or Platinum tint with a shade level of Neutral Dark (second lightest). But that's completely arbitrary since I've never seen the tint on an actual car. I would prefer a shade that'll keep people from looking inside the car (just in case I'm picking my nose!), yet at the same time not hinder night visibility much.

3M is good. Even their darkest shades still offer outstanding visibility at night.

What is your vehicle sir. Php5K is already big money for a sedan. Even a wagon such as my Pajero only costs Php 4.5K to tint and that includes a 1-piece film for the whole windshield.

I have not used Platinum but I have tried other brands such as SolarGard, Polaroid, and even the brandless ones. But for my needs, 3M really gives the best value for money. Good heat rejection and scratch resistant with clear visibility pa. Resists fading over time also.

3M and Platinum are both good brands. Choose the tint shade that suits you as any of the two bands will do. Be careful of those who would install your tints. Sometimes they may cut through the rear defogger wires (if equipped) rendering them unsuble. Goodluck.
