Got front windscreen film from Solar Shield two weeks back in my Baleno. Film is almost transparent and absolutely not visible from outside. But the benefit is huge. Did Mumbai - Goa - Mumbai trip last week and could notice the difference in cooling pre and post installation of the film. Peak afternoon temperature would be around 35 degrees in Goa, but with front film and factory tinted window glasses, i was very comfortable with air con temp set at 25 degrees.

Product Details.

As mentioned, you don't have to ask, you can see it. But it may be subtle, and difficult to notice.

In London, I ordered a replacement glass for a Golf. When asked, I said, untinted. When the guys arrived, they said green tinted. Told me a lot of people make the same mistake and they always bring both.

The previous owner of my Polo had never noticed that the glass is tinted. We were chatting, while waiting for my independent garage to inspect his (shortly to be mine ) car. The driver's window was half open. I pointed out the difference in the white wall through, and not through, the glass.

When you know, it's obvious. When you don't: it may not be. But we can always do our own check with a white paper or handy wall.

What was the price for sunfilm and where did you get it installed?

Guys who are looking to get Garware: Pls ask for Supreme series. It's the newer one than the Iceshield we have got all these years.


Note: I do not have the specs.

Thanks Condor for recommending Shreyas! I got this newer films on my Taigun just last week. The application was done at my door step. These films come with 70% VLT and 99% UV rejection. Came at a cost of nearly one third of what 3M Sarjapur road and HSR Layout were quoting.

There are a few marks in the front windshield, the gentleman that Shreyas is, has agreed to get it replaced. Will be doing it next week.

Must also mention how cordial Amar was - I exhausted my daily transfer limits on PhonePe and I didn't make payment for a day. I kept both these folks informed and paid the next day.

I have not driven out the car out a lot except for one early morning airport pickup and drop back. Will wait to drive it out a full day before commenting the effectiveness.

A friend was planning to get the icesheild film applied from another detailer around Sarjapur road and have asked him to talk to Shreyas as well!

There's no harm in posting it here vs a PM that helps one person only.

Why deprive everyone of a good installer.

He is doing a business right? Or is it just a hobby.

Plus there are several forum readers who are not members who might want to avail his services, anyway to each his own.

What I have is the personal number - which again I asked out here in this forum privately. I'd rather be safe about someone else's PII than be sorry.

Great to have the community that we have! I was on the fence for 3-4 months now, somehow couldn’t get the time to install sunfilms on my 8 month only Jeep Compass. I have always had 3MCR70 on my front windshield and RE70 on the other windows on all my earlier cars until now. However, most 3M outlets do not have RE70 anymore and installing 3M CR70 on all glasses just seemed too expensive.

Thanks to the recommendations from fellow bhpian members drive.Helios ( who i think got the recommendation from Condor ), I reached out to Shreyas and he got his folks to install the Garware SHR series ( Supreme) at my office parking. They just needed a plug point connection for using the dryer, so it was a hassle free process. Installation was professional, Shreyas was in touch throughout, would highly recommend his team for anyone in Bangalore. This whole process was such a welcome change from what I have been seeing with 3M outlets ( who now have this take it or leave it attitude)

Initial feedback, the sunfilms look a tad greyish / dark when compared to CR70, also could be because i have not driven it in daylight as yet. Not sure if this Garware supreme series is as effective as 3M CR70, but my usage is fairly simple, I have covered parking at home and at office, and the main purpose was to reduce the heat that seems to directly hit the Head Unit in the Compass during the 8am office commutes.
