I had mine done today with, I think he said, Llumar ATR.
ATR Window Tint | LLumar
I have used metallic for years and NEVER EVER had an issue personally.
Sure it can happen, but the antenna is on the outside.
Wanna test it? Wrap your cell phone in different tint films, and make a video for us.
I am BIG on testing... Hence my rat vs soy wire test.
I went to literally one of the best, if not the best tint shop in the Northeast.
Their primary business is buildings though.
He flat out told me "I can sell you the ceramic and make more profit but it is not worth it unless you are down south"
So, what business would tell me (something I already know, because I don't buy into hype or marketing anymore)
they don't want to take more of my money?
Keep in mind, most people are going to automotive-only tinting shops... And this guys primary business is buildings (commercial/residential), then non-commercial aircraft, cars, Ballistic for PD's, then marine vessels.
And just because you mention 3M, I know some things...
You like to pay a premium so guys in suits can jet-set around the globe.
Not saying they don't make a quality product, but for such a large company, they should be able to offer a better price point.
To each their own.
Pay your premium prices, it is a free market.
$320, +30 tip, all nine windows in 20% Llumar. "Lifetime warranty"
No windshield or sunroof at this time, as I could not wait for it longer.
Took about 2.25 hours.
Excuse the filth... Shitty day, and birds got me while I was waiting for them to open.
