Guys.. i'm using Vkool 40 all round.. for my satria. But my front windscreen shattered ( got bang by a damn big stone at federal highway ) and i have
to replace it with a fresh new one.. So.. how much is the recommended
price for Vkool 40 if I wanna tint my front windscreen only?

really ah? i tot both same company but different product.

sungard is the one that have various colour/type while suncool got only 1 type... which is the neutral one... greenish/bluish colour.

the thing i don't like about vkool is that you can't use your smartag in it while ecotint's range has no problem at all.

as for kristalbond, its very very expensive. heard its about 3K for all 6 windows. my windscreen is not covered by insurance, so if pecah, there goes my money. besides, i'm not even sure if windscreen insurance cover tints replacement or not.

if i'm not mistaken, the current tint ruling is that your FRONT WINDSCREEN light penetration is 70% while the rest is 50%.

We'll just to share with you guys, my tint that I had done 5 months ago (famous brand starting from E) is starting to have lots of small spots, apparently dust? that's what they told me when I went back to the shop, not quite happy bout it since there are so many, the the place where I stick those glass stickers have discolored (abit blackish), is it suppose to be like that?
I think not since this doesn't happen to my other cars
Just sharing with you guys

 

[soulfly]

small spots... are they tiny bubbles?

 

[Beetle]

yup that's what i said to them and they told me it was dust stuck inside....

 

[Dremel]

then that's the shop's fault lar.. they must clean your window thoroughly
before applying the tint film.. as long as in warranty period..
u should ask them for a new sets of film.. for the affected areas only :ph34r:

 

[rebirth]

hi...
as i know, the cheapest price of tinted...
is the black color unbrand ........
maybe 15 bucks to 20 bucks.....for a window......
hehe......i feel so cold in my car with those black tinted
rear window...try it :P

 

[XaMaX]

i think those black tints are illegal rite

 

[malice]

To rebirth
sorry but not to offence you, the el cheapo black tint does not reject any heat / uv light at all, it is just for aesthetically appeal (phychological think)

To Xamax
I have just browsed through the JPJ (updated with bg music) recently, and found out that only 2 reason you are eligible to applied for black tint:
-you have skin problem, get an approval letter from the GOVERNMENT doctor, not those private clinic doctor.
-u are a V.I.P

That's true. I did used 100% black tint (cheap brand dunno what name, just say cap ayam) on all around my car windows, including front and rear windscreen.

I can say the black tint sure avoid the light... but the heat is still there, I can still feel the heat from the sun light. Gladly at the time I had 1 layer of SunCool at my door windows.

The only black tint that has some uv/heat protection that I know is SunGard (make sure it's original lar).

i tot black is illegal for normal cars like us..i think MPV should be ok..saw lotz of Estima and Stream using black tint ;)
