    Hi! I'm considering VKool OEM 20 tint. Gusto ko lang i-verify kung original yung binigay na sample sa akin ng isang tint room:
    1. no markings (unlike 3M)
    2. bluish gray from the inside (reflective outside)
    3. the film is not as thin as 3M FX series

    Authentic po ba ito? Please let me know. Thanks in advance!

    Have been using 3Ms since the late 90s

    To me, what matters is that the tint's color doesn't fade. Brand familiarity makes me stick with 3M... until Subaru changed the narrative because it uses SolarGard for the vehicles it releases here in the Philippines.

    I have VKool OEM35 on the Vios and 3M OEM35 on the Mazda. Both full windshield. Mas maliwanag ang VKool sa gabi and the difference is noticeable. I will be replacing the Mazda's tint to VKool soon. Mas black lang talaga tingnan from the outside ang 3M OEM compared to the shinier VKool kaya I'm not replacing the tints on the windows and back glass..

    We have different observations. I have OEM20 on my Mazda and CS20 on my Civic. Same lang sila.





    Perhaps because you're using FX-ST instead of CS? Difference is about 300-500 pesos between the 2 for a full wraparound, which is worth it if you find the FXST inferior to Vkool OEM. CS is still half the price of Vkool OEM though.

    Posible. It's the casa freebie tint (paid 2k for full windshield though) so most probably ang pinakamura ang ginamit nila.

    Parang mas maliwanag for me yung sa upper picture. Or magkaiba din ng headlight yan, baka kasi factor din for night driving.

    Yup mas malakas kasi headlight ng Civic (OEM LED) kaysa Mazda 3 (HID Retrofit).

    But on the parts na hindi lit, halos pareho lang visibility.
