With the heat wave hitting a high of between 38-39 degrees Celsius during the day, car owners are cranking up their air-conditioning units to keep cool in traffic.
The tinted glass business in Malaysia is a multi-million ringgit one and every single day dozens of Malaysian car owners get cheated wholesale by car salesmen, car dealers, tint shop owners and car accessory shops. Herein lies the silliness of many car owners. When a new car salesman offers them a hefty discount on a “quality original” tint they smile willingly and agree.The truth is, the tint offered is probably worth RM80 and the cost to install about RM100. That brings the total cost to only RM180, 10% of the discounted price offered to you initially.
When selecting which tint to use, go for the premium brand, that cuts off the heat or the IR. The premium price for the premium brand will guarantee your tint stays the same through the next 5-7 years without any bubbles forming. It is cheaper in the long run.
