Yesterday, Garware Classic Lite Ash sun film installed.

50% VLT on 4 side doors & 70% VLT on rear. Specs looks good (40%&30%heat rejection with 99%UV rejection) for this film & 3M was not available in our area!!

Some queries raised in mind:

  • Why sunfilm require to past innerside of the door?
  • Can we paste outerside also? some excess film still available.
  • In front glass shield, can we install sunfilm layer on upperside & lowerside above to dashboard?

Pl. guide. thanks.

I have 3M, they are better than some of the films I see on other cars but I'm quite sure better films can be made   A bad film will spoil the curves of your car, but then on regular cars (<15 L), what's the point in spending a fortune on the film - it'll never add to your resale anyway. Garware costs less because it's made here and they don't have loyalty and import expenses that other brands do. Don't write them off - if they don't work, you know who to sue, and Garware knows that you know, so they do a decent job at making the films. If Garware films are good for buildings that stand in the sun for decades, they are good for your car too - they didn't build such market share on low quality.

Make sure you go for high visibility, it's vital for safety on Indian roads.

Some queries raised in mind:

  • Why sunfilm require to past innerside of the door? - I don't think there's any rule or method. the guy might have done to prevent scratches on the films from outerside.
  • Can we paste outerside also? some excess film still available. - Yes, I have seen many films installed on oterside of the window/glass.
  • In front glass shield, can we install sunfilm layer on upperside & lowerside above to dashboard? - Yes, we can install, you will find many people have installed a strip (about 2.5-3 inches) on the top/upperside of the windshield, but I've never seen any lowerside film strip (my view - it may spoil the look)

Pl. guide. thanks.

Dpj, can you please share the price of the installe sunfilms?
