What's the best car tint brand and color?

[Helly]

thank you for the info sir! V-Kool is the most expensive here right? how about the Crystalline, how would i know if it's genuine or not? may peke ba talaga nito? nakakatakot bumili kasi mahal e kahit pa maging half the price lang ng V-Kool...

As far as I know, wala pang pekeng Crystalline. Konti pa lang naman ang mga installers na may Crystalline. If you want to be 100% sure, sa Winterpine ka magpakabit.

I suggest you just spend the 5k on 3M BC35 (53% TSER) instead of trying out another tint. Sayang din yung pera pag nagkataon na palpak yung Clear Cool. Sa 3M sigurado ka na as long as genuine yung tint.

Thanks Helly. Actually, the casa will already be giving me free tint na 3M BC35. Gusto ko lang talaga clear tint, so kunin ko yung 3M na uninstalled. Besides, the casa can't install na 1pc sa front and back, so I really prefer to have my own installer.

Been looking at other clear tints, and it's unfortunate na V-Kool is no longer available locally (at least wala sa usual LACars and V-Kool Santolan). They're offering SolarGuard LX70, which from the website is actually for architectural use. Sun-Gard local distributor also offers the Sun-Gard Century Nova 70, but is also for architectural use. Ano kaya disadvantage ng using building tint for cars? They actually have higher TSER, and sometimes are thicker tint which makes for more secure and safer windows.

Sa FGC naka pag kabit sila ng whole piece for my new Fiesta... baka pwede mong avail yun free tint at sa FGC ka na lang magpa kabit... sayang kasi yun FREE. Gagasta ka pa ng malaki... unless nga gusto mo nun clear tint.

That's weird. Anong casa yan sir?

Nihhao/Nihhon (Banawe cor Cuenco) is good. Okay din sa Jetcar (tapat lang ng Nihhon). Other good installers: C3 Audio (Banawe cor Dapitan), Maspro (old Banawe, near E. Rod), and Gold Cars.

Salamat sir!

plan to have my new cx7 this week.. few questions po..
1) is there any other 3M authorized dealer aside from winterpine? Yun sana may tint room na secluded (except LA accessories, dami kasi negative feedback)
2) ok na kaya yun cs20 sa front windows, then cs 35 sa rear windows (na may factory tinted privacy glass)? magpapantay na kaya yun kulay nun? (eto yun ni recommend sa winterpine..
3) may iba pa bang ok na brand for heat rejection and to match the factory tinted rear glass ng cx7? (ok sana yun solar gard, kaso dun sa isang sasakyan ko parang may rainbow effect pag gabi from the outside kapag nailwan, sabi sa solar gard dahil sa metal daw yun)
maraming salamat in advance!

I recently installed SunGard medium black on my car... (lighter shade of medium black in front and the darker medium black sa sides and back). So far, am pretty happy with it especially with regard to visibility at night. Price is also a lot better than 3M or SolarGard.

Madaming 3M installers sa Banawe (see my post above), kaso wala nga lang tint room. IMHO, nasa nagkakabit yan. Kahit may tint room kung palpak yung installer, pangit pa rin results.

2) ok na kaya yun cs20 sa front windows, then cs 35 sa rear windows (na may factory tinted privacy glass)? magpapantay na kaya yun kulay nun? (eto yun ni recommend sa winterpine..

Not sure kung magpapantay yung color sa front and rear passenger windows 'coz of the rear factory tinted glass kahit na lighter shade ang ikakabit sa rear. Baka naman ang result is mas lighter pa rin yung rear passenger windows. If I were you, I'd just go for CS20 all around. Kahit di pantay ang color, mas okay na darker sa rear.

Pag heat rejection, mas okay ang 3M BC kesa sa CS.

thanks helly!

bka winterpine na din ako magpakabit, dami mga loko sa banawe e, nag inquire din ako mazda greenhills ( may a/c tint rm kasi sila) kaya lang 4k ang difference sa price (un 3m crystalline para sa front windshield)
-ok nga sana BC for heat rejection kaya lng d match sa rear privacy (factory tinted) glass
