What's the best car tint brand and color?

[Raynim999]

Changed my casa tint to Sunbloc today in Road Fit. Nice installation rooms, friendly owner - Sir Paul and very detailed service. I got the SUNBLOC Ultra and Ultimate combination and very happy with the results... aircon at 27 degrees is now abit cold for me at noon.. need to try baking the car under the sun and see how it goes..

Nice! Paul is indeed very helpful although I still need to bring back my car to him because of some hairline scratches and very minimal bubbles in the tint.

Master !

Sorry whats VLT ?

For the windshield i installed the ultra clear... driver window medium ultra and rest is ultimate dark.. i know many will laugh coz of three different shades but i just need lighter shades in front after my experience with my old car.. manyak tint...

Total damage 16k..
Total install time : 3 hrs ( including old tint removal and added shock spring buffer)

Super satisfied with the windshield tint performance... i think this is also alot cheaper than LA Cars..

Huh? The scratches and bubbles were there immediately after installation of the tint. I drove my new XV when I picked it up from the casa straight to Road Fit to have it tinted. I noticed the hairline scratches the following day after inspecting the whole car under the sun.

As for the bubbles, those should disappear after 1 week (I'm sure you were also given that info) but there were some that didn't go away. That is most probably due to mishandling of the installer. Nobody's perfect in tint installation. Fortunately, Paul backs his product up 100% and will fix these minor issues when I bring it back to his store.

And regarding my bad luck, I'm not sure where you're getting at with your comments. Everybody has gotten into car accidents, regardless if it's a minor or a major one. It's not always your fault when you get into these accidents. If you never gotten into one, kudos to you.

And yes, my XV is a brand new 2018 model that I got just 3 weeks ago, November 11 to be exact.

When I had mine tinted there, I had 3m tint installed prior to that from the casa total installation time was around 6 hours for the whole wrap around replacement. I think 3m is much more difficult to remove(?) since the supervisor told the tint installer that it was 3M and they needed to soak it longer to properly remove the rear tint and they advised me it would take a bit more time.

Got the mid tier ultimate ceramic around 11k for a sedan; 35 vlt ws and 20 vlt for the rest. Take note their vlt 20 for the ultimate ceramic is not neutral but shaded bronze.

Yup sa WS. Pero napansin ko parang yun windshield ang nagdadala. Kasi parang lumiwanag yung sides din after magpalit. Or baka totally cured na kaya naging lighter.

Windshield talaga magdadala dahil yung light tatagos sa windshield and masisinagan yung tint mo sa sides so mas liliwanag yung tingin mo, regardless of how minor yung sinag na yun.

And one more thing pala, nadadala din ng LED headlights. Wag ka magdadark sa WS kapag hindi LED headlights mo

I know you're against dark tint may it be in the windshield or the sides. But it really depends on the eyes of the driver. To each his own bro.

You might remember me complaining about how I was having a hard time with the dark tints in my sides but after a while I gotten used to it even during the night.

Yup I enjoy vlt 35 over vlt 20 for the ws (a bit of a trade off though since I can been seen from the front more). I feel much more confident driving in dimly lit areas now since I can spot pedestrians easier.

I feel that it rejects heat better than the 3m one but fx st is just dyed tint if I'm not mistaken. Only test I've done is windows down and windows up with the sun up for the SunBloc Tint. It significantly reduces the heat I feel but maybe this is true for a window with no tint.

Maybe others who've switched from other brands can share their experience?

How long was the tint on your car before bringing it to Road Fit? I think mine was 3 weeks on already before I decided to replace so it could have significantly cured by then.

We have to flaunt our good looks so dapat clear yun windshield hehe

Totally agree with the pedestrians in dim lit areas.. they just pop out of the blue( or dark)...
