Many car owners overlook the importance of getting a good tint for the car rear window.
This is because the driver seat is occupied most of the time which makes it natural that car owners are much more particular about the front cabin than the back.
A high-quality tinted rear window allows the car to get the optimized cooling effect, protection of the interior and upholstery, and also shield passengers from harmful rays.
Aside from all of the statements above, getting a better tint for the rear window will also save you from a lot of time-consuming and money-consuming situations in the future too.
Rear Window Bubbles
Low quality window film will cause bubbles to form as it does not have the properties to withstand the extreme heating and cooling environment.
These bubbles on your rear window are not only ruining the overall look of your ride but also obstructs your view while driving.
Within 1-3 years, these bubbles, stretches, and cracks will start forming at the same time once the adhesives have broken down.
In a tropical country such as Malaysia, it is advisable to get a better tint for the rear windscreen as the car is exposed to the hot (sun) and cold (rain) conditions most of the time which allows bubbles to form sooner than you know it.
Replacement of Rear Window Film
If you invested in a high-quality tint for your rear window but want to have a darker shade after a few years, you can easily have the new layer installed over the first layer.
No damage will be done with your demister intact. However, if the first layer of tint has bubbles, cracks, and is peeling, you will have to remove the tint which will come out with the demister.
Installing a low quality tint on your rear window will most likely lead to the formation of these unwanted flaws.
To save the fuss, get a better quality tint for your rear window from the very beginning and you will save up a lot on unnecessary costs in the future.
Demister Breaking
With the arrival of the unwanted bubbles on the rear window, comes the need to replace the cheap tint that has been causing this bubbling effect to happen.
However, the replacement of the window tint comes with a risk which is the demister might or might not survive the operation.
The demister is made up of lines and sometimes dots, located on the rear window that defogs your windscreen.
The demister works like a circuit and if a section of it is broken, there is nothing you can do but to replace the entire demister or for some cars, the entire rear window.
Trusted Car Tint Installer
At the end of the day, a car tint installer with good workmanship is important in making sure that everything goes smoothly during your car window tint installation.
There are numerous unfortunate stories out there where many people paid for expensive car tints but the workmanship was very bad and resulted them in redoing all over again.
A good quality car tint and a good car tint installer goes hand in hand.
So make sure you read reviews of the workshop first before making your appointment.
Imagine installing a low grade tint film for your rear window and then after a year or two, you need to fork out RM 350 (or more depending on your car model) to replace your entire rear windscreen because the restoration of your new car tint will most probably damage your demister.
Demisters cannot be fixed and must be replaced as a whole and for some car models, it only comes with the rear windscreen and not as a separate component.
All of these can be avoided if you get the right car tint installed by a professional and experienced workshop.
