Window Tint

[Karding]

Ahhh, sobrang init sa Cali and di ko na matiis talaga... :lol:

eto, nag pa-tint na ko. Hindi Llumar tint ang ginamit, Johnson Window Film scratch resistant, fade-resistant, with 23-micron pressure sensitive layer ang ginamit. Ganito din yata ang feature ng Llumar, not sure.

Charcoal Titanium

thanks afrasay.

di talaga ako fan ng tinted windows. Pero sobra na talaga yang araw na yan, iba na kulay ng left arm ko :lol:

PROMDIBOY, maraming naguguluhan sa LAW about window tinting. Usually, kapag nasita ka ng pulis, sasabihin sayo na bawal. yung ibang nasisita ng pulis, hindi alam na may amendment (year 1999) sa LAW allowing you to have a tint:

It must let 88% of the light pass through it.

kung nakikita ka pa ng pulis, medyo safe ka pa. hehehe.

this is what I would do when I get pulled over.

As I recommended to someone else just take the ticket, cause pointing out the cops' mistake will only make him look for something else to write you up on, Then go to his station and inform the desk sergeant (or whoever is manning the desk), of the issuing officers mistake on the law. In my case he was called in from the field, and made to reverse the ticket (as well as eat crow publicly) right there on the spot, it never went to the courts.

grabe dito sa US, kung hindi mo alam ang law...left and right kang ma pull-over ng parak. then kapag nag contest ka ng ticket, 99% of the time, dropped ang charges ;) I just got a speeding ticket a month ago, I'm fighting it and requested a Trial By Written Declaration. Only a few ppl knows about the Trial by Written Declaration, nagbabayad na lang sila ng fine.

Tickets issued by the Police are just another way of State Sponsored Extortion as outline in www.ticketassasin.com

Nice Karding ... pogi points :p

Ako din nag patint two weeks ago. Talagang nakaka tulong ang tint sa init. Maski bawal ;) Ako nag palagay ng 35% fronts and 20% rears.

spazzkid, you can get away with it too kapag yung manufacturer ng tint may certificate na nagpapatunay na the tint is to reduce UV Rays. Minsan, depende sa pulis, lalo na kapag mga haters at may topak. masyadong vague ang pakasulat ng Law about tinting that when you fight it in court, judge would likely dismiss your case. Pero gaya ng sabi ko, yung ibang nahuhuli, walang time magpunta sa court kaya nagbabayad na lang ng fine kesa sa hassle. Not in my case, pumupunta talaga ako ng court :lol:

FLiPMaRC, bawas yata pogi points, di na kita yung pogi sa loob :lol: :p hahahahaha

ang ganda ng auto mo pre. ang linis tignan. pano ba sila magtint dyan sa states? banawe style din ba na spray bottle na may shampoo at cutter, o may iba pa silang technique? hehe =)

[Karding]

thanks momoy. nag observe ako and here it goes...

1. linis outside windows
2. may spray bottle with built-in torch!!
3. Then binasa yung outside windows ng spray bottle (amoy shampoo).
4. nilagay yung film sa labas ng windows
5. window shape is being traced and cutted at the same time.
6. nilinis inside windows
7. nilipat yung traced/cutted film from outside to inside.
8. spray spray at paminsan minsan eh may torch.
9. spatula na
10. tapos na...hehehe.

akala ko nung una eh sa labas nila ilalagay ang tint :lo: sabi ko, "abah! high tech sila! sa labas ang tint! or dalawa ilalagay na tint?" yung pala, nag trace lang sila ng shape ng windows...hehehe.

akala ko noon ang tinting, derecho na agad ang sukat sa loob ng car, sa labas muna pala...hehehe

the good thing about this shop, lifetime warranty!!! :cool: super packed ang shop, mabuti na lang ma-aga ako dumating. Nung pa-alis na ko, eto na mga Porche, Mercedes CL500 , BMW 745iL Lexus SC400, matindi pala talaga ang shop na to. Wala pa ngang plate number yung mga luxury car. Pero mura lang, sa other shop, I was quoted $260.00 all around. Then dito nga, $135.00 all around lang.
