Solar Film

Thermal guard does contain metallic compounds tats y u c the rainbow colours. Its perfectly normal. If the solar film failed LTA inspection, jus go back to thermal guard as they guarantee passed LTA.

IIRC, the ONLY solar film with any inherent metallic elements at all is V-Kool premium line of solar films... Expensive but highly effective. As many have mentioned before, it's so damned good, it blocks out GPS and ERP signals and you'd have to accept having to cut a small hole for the IU. Also, why it's not recommended sometimes is because over time; about 2-3 years, the edges of the applied film tend to age and yellow but will not peel.

Any guys did the thermal guard basic film and chose the purple sk45 film for their rear screen instead of the clear one?

I'm thinking of doing Thermal Guard too, probably will go to their workshop this Sat to take a look.

I'm not sure how good is rikecool given by C&C. I am at rikecool, I am there to change the file with bubbles, complain abit about the rainbow effect, the boss David actually took the troublem to come down to explain to me the effect, its the latest film and it cuts down alot of UV and reject heat, there was a experiment to show prove too. He show me various gradf of file he has and the one he use for the back was very good.

If u guys are ok with rikecool, can look for David directly, knowing he dont earn from rapairing but still guide me thru his products, no need quote my name coz this is just a feedback from a satisfy customer.

BTW, i dont know about other film spec ah, i just commenting on rikecool thats all.

Did any Forte bros top-up to get the 3M Crystalline Solar Film?
How much was the top-up amount?

If no top-up, how much was off-set (deducted)? 50%?

Seriously considering to get the 3M one.

Thanks Bro for the info.

wah.. no conclusion whether to stick with the Rikecool given by SE or should go for another one... so many opinions here, cannot decide!

Dun go with Rikecool. I already opt out.

u did? and what did you get in place for it?

The rike cool given by CnC good not? the quality...

My SE didn't give me Rikecool, he giving me ThermalGuard instead. Maybe you wanna check with your SE if you can change brand.

come on, no need for apologies, beanbag. we're all learning here.

my SE offer me thermalGuard for 300 bucks , the package was 500 bucks.

rejected and went to infratint to did it , got the 400 platinum package,
service and workmanship is tip top.
boss is friendly and really go into small detail like going ard checking any bubble and asking them to redo.

my front got bubble and boss told his worker to tear and do again.

Koup - front clear
- side and back uniform colour - 60 % heat rejection , 99 UV , reflective 25% , 30% tint IIRC.

what the hell?!
how come the 900-plus rikecool is so terrible then? probly 900 is BS. only 100+ nia.

will be collecting my car nx wk.. the comments given on the free rikecool film is making me confused.. hmm..

better to check with SE what grade of Rikecool film that you are getting ? If it is the low grade film premier 25 or 28 (only 30% IR rej) then either you can top-up to upgrade to higher grade film (higher % IR rej ) or get rebate then do outside CnC.....

i ask abt top up she said only tied up wif rikecool.. i asked for rebate she said not a practise to give cash rebates as an exchange for the solar film.. hmm..

tom she will check wif her manager n get back to me..

please keep us updated on that hellbabe, ok?

treysha wrote:please keep us updated on that hellbabe, ok?

SE says no rebate.. wth.. anione here booked from FULCO and managed to get rebate wen u opt out the rikecool?

If no rebate.... then perhaps you may want to top-up for the higher grade Rikecool film (ask yiur SE for more Rikecool film options and pricing).....

thanks.. will call SE tom

i found out rikecool has 2 package which has same price $900..

premier 28 Ultraviolet Rejection 99.86% Visible Light Transmittance 35 % Infra-Radiation Heat Rejection 80 % Total Solar Energy Rejected 58% UltravioletTransmittance <1%

premium 63

Ultraviolet Rejection	99.86%
Visible Light Transmittance	65.3 %
Infra-Radiation Heat Rejection	88 %
Total Solar Energy Rejected	55 %
Ultraviolet Transmittance	<1 %

so which one better?? 1st time car owner.. blur2.. since same price can choose either one wat..

If I'm not wrong, you may discuss with yr SE to do the tinting outside yourself. They will pay the solar film vendor around S$100+ for value below S$200 (basic package). Any higher package, you will need to top up the balance yourself. They have contact with InfraTint on this arrangement as well.
