The box had a glass sheet with the three types of film they offered... you then put your hand in, under the glass & slide the glass, feeling the 3 different temps of the lamp on your skin.... with the two metallic based films they offer, you could feel a significant amount of heat... then, the ceramic film... almost NO HEAT whatsoever was felt. Amazing. They say it blocks out 75% of heat & Sunrays therefore protecting your interior for the long haul. The place I used also has a LIFETIME WARRANTY against anything. Not only thier product, but scratches from seatbelts, window breakage, etc.

We had it put on in early Sept... it was a really hot day...when we got in after it was installed, the temp inside the car with the sun glaring in was amazing! It made a huge difference. Plus it's not dark looking from the inside out, but it's dark looking inside from the outside.

I have used the cheaper metallic based tints on several other cars in the past because of the price... so I DO know there is a difference in product.

You get what you pay for, it's that simple.
Where did you get it done? Do you rember about how much it cost? Do you remeber the brand of tint it was?
