Suntek is an Eastman owned company (same owners as Llumar, Forumula One Pinnacle) and Eastman is one of the largest raw material tint suppliers in the world. Then there's higher end films with noticeably better specs such as Xpel Prime XR and XR+, Spectra Photosync, etc. Some tint can cost as much as $700+ to do a sedan. Buy wisely.

More important is the installation. Find a shop with a plotter to computer cut your tint. Many shops who also do PPF use Xpels plotter software which is excellent. The advantage of computer cut is no razor blades on your glass and no cut rubber, etc...

Also find a shop with a closed garage bay. Tinting a car outside, or in an open garage, will increase the amount of foreign debris caught under the film.

Good luck
That is what I did: Suntek CIR
