What is Magic Tint and the principle behind it?

[Karding]

what's the difference between a SolarGard Dark Magic and a SolarGard Quantum?

hmmm, I dont see the Dark Magic or Magic Dark on SolarGard.com site.

Iba pa lang company ang V-Kool

Originally developed for the US space and military program, and now being adapted for commercial use, V-KOOL® is a transparent, infra-red reflective polyester film which can be bonded to glass surfaces. The polyester is coated on one side with multi-layers of microscopic metal particles, and a pressure sensitive adhesive on the underside

Parang its the best film out there from what the quote says.

sunguard is the inexpensive ones. i have it on my ride. medium dark magic neutral sa front windshield, and then medium black on the sides and back. ok ang performance ng tint sa gabi, medyo nadidiliman ako pero nasanay na rin ako :D

karding, mukhang ok ang FormulaOne ah..sayang wala yan dito..i've heard na non-metallic tints are the way to go. so far, halos lahat ng tint offered dito is metal-sputtered tints.

[Karding]

zechs, mas okay 'yata' ang V-Kool. Pero wala naman nyan sa tint shop na pinupuntahan ko Pero the shop uses Tint Tek for micro-edge precision, computerized cutting.

[zechs]

karding, sobrang mahal kasi ng v-kool eh...

[Karding]

zechs, kung mas mahal pa sa FormulaOne ang V-Kool, talagang mahal nga ang V-Kool!! I paid $310 for my FormulaOne Pinnacle for 2-front, 2-rear passenger, and rear windshield. Nung gumamit ako ng SolarGard Quantum sa Civic Coupe ko, $260 naman for front, rear, and rear windshield.

thanks bro. Dark Magic seem to be from Sungard and I got it mixed up with Solargard.

3M is almost twice as expensive as sun guard and solar guard. yung premium line siguro mas mahal but its the cheaper version of vcool. but in fairness 3M tints are the best.

[pissword]

sir karding ang alam ko ang V-kool P15K ang windshield palang or is it whole vehicle na... either way mahal talaga siya

[meier]

sa isang shop sa malugay st. ako nagpa-tint..

pansin ko lang, mas pino-promote nila yung solarguard kaysa sa 3M. mas gusto ko nga yung 3M pero sabi sa akin.. mas ok yung solarguard mas mura pa.. mayroon pa silang isang box with a high wattage bulb, dun nila pinakita kung gaano kagaling yung solarguard magresist ng heat compared sa 3M.. kaya na-convince ako ng mag solarguard na lang.

dalawang klase yung sa solarguard.. yung magic or quantum series at yung bago nilang product, XG series ata..

yung XG super black ang pinakabit ko sa sides ang back at XG medium nuetral sa front.. Ok naman visibility at night.

Windshield $300 na??? One guy from San Diego paid $550 for all four windows and rear windshield. Mahal nga!

but in fairness 3M tints are the best.

In my opinion, V-Kool would be the best since it was developed originally for space programs. If V-Kool can withstand solar rays in the outer space, imagine how much rays it can block on earth. hahahaha

[scarab]

...whole vehicle na yan. quote sa oto ko dati 14k sa vcool including windshield. magkano kaya inabot yung sa teriyaki boy...

[ILuvDetailing]

AFAIK if its 6000 for the windshield pag V-Cool.

[butchokuy]

ok ba yung Platinum Tint, sabi nila parehas lang daw eto ng 3M?

[Loki]

yung neutral magic, okay ba yung for windshield?
ano kaya effect sa night visibility? konti lang kaya difference sa walang tint?
magic dark/neutral lang kasi available sa hyundai na free.

[darryl_f555]

for me, mas gusto ko yung 3M magic tint compared sa ordinary tint dahil mas kita ko ang paligid pag gabi..

[likot]

ok ba yung Platinum Tint, sabi nila parehas lang daw eto ng 3M?

sir naka platinum tint ako dark tint yung black, oks cya sa tanghali kahit tutok sa araw di mainit sa loob ng sasakyan di ka mangingitim!!! pero windshield ko pina 3m magic tint ko yung light lang. kasi kapag black rin baka mangapa na ako sa dillim 3-4 years daw bago kumupas ang platinum i dont know kung totoo to or mas tatagal pa!!! sir sa casa ko po ito pina install!!!!

[likot]

may sinabi sakin tropa ko sa states daw merong tint na super transparent lang as in parang di ka naka tint tapos malakas ang heat resistant nya kahit tanghali di ka maiinitan. the tint cost P50,000 totoo ba to?? anyone from the states that do have this kind of tint?

Scarab - san k nag palagay ng VCOOL?

[meier]

sa mazda 323 '97 inabot ng 3.5k buo yung harap may hati yung likod.. nasa 4k-5k kung 3m as far as i can remember.

kung mag super black ka sa likod, dapat buo din, kasi kitang kita kasi sa loob na may guhit eh... mag-extra ka nga lang ng mga 200 ata.

ang pinagkaiba ng quantum(magic) sa XG, parang mirror yung magic, yung XG black lang. pero parehong di ka makikita.
