Vkool is da best... the rest i dunno la.. should have some of the properties they claim but if its that much cheaper, either its Vkool ripping ppl off due to their brand name or the other brands really tou-gong-jian-liao until can be so cheap
-
I think I will go for a more well know brand. I mean everyone is just a sheet of plastic but what is in it is most important. it is the brand that counts, I will be installin mine this saturday, and i getting my done up from 3M. They are more respectable in their product. I think V-kool is far too expensive. well the choice is yours

Where to get 3M and is it DIY?

Recently I heard V-kool have some kind of insurance on the windscreen. If the windscreen kanna stone and scattered, the V-kool is suppose to hold it. You can find out more about it. I use Rikecool.

Any prove to say that they used sub "standard stuff"? I have got my CoolnLite installed on my car for almost 7 months now and I see some bubbles that has been there since day 1... but just got no time to get them replaced.Originally posted by africatwin:Used it for my previous car ...................no good! they used sub standard stuff.

Huper Optik is good! 99% IR rejection, is higher than VKool. -
I redo my just 1 week after installment. Got 1 long scratch mark after collecting my car. But didn't return immediately. Anyway, with a 10-years waranty, can change anytime when you find bubbles or peeling. Too long after installment, I don't think they will allow scratches redo.Originally posted by Vinsanne:Any prove to say that they used sub "standard stuff"?

For me, I am very particular with the wind screen, got problem immediately change. Other side, not so particular. Got at discount rate, so didn't expect too much.

Anyway under extreme hot sun my hand can feel the different by placing at different place.Originally posted by Vinsanne:Any prove to say that they used sub "standard stuff"?

umm....yes thinking of installing the films but really am not sure which one...
(1) cool n lite, now have promo at $620 if charged on OCBC card (not sure when expires) --> but my friend install & after one month have to go back to re-do due to bubbles appearing on the windows....just recently (6 months later) he experience distortion in viewing out the windows, and no time to go back to the store to re-do
is it worth the hassel to pay cheaper & have to go back all the time?
(2) another set of friends actually swear by v-kool...but seems very exy.
think i will just wait for promo...
ps. if you currently have any probs with your current film, i believe its best to get it re-done sooner than later...just gives the stores an excuse not to fix... -
pls see my reply.... keep us updated if you have made up your mind to install either one....Originally posted by rodtan88:Due to the recent hot weather, I am planning to install solar films. Anybody has any experience with CoolNLite solar films, how does it compare to VKool.
