bingo.gif you can get just about any major mannys lifetime NR film and you should be able to get ~10 years out of it depending on where you live. Plus, if it ever fades then you have the warranty for it beer.gif

That depends on the law, the manu will not honor any warranty on !llegal film. In most applications, 5% is !llegal....

if you can find it:

dti 35grgrgr -one of the best films ever, i would compare it to atr and charcool for overall performance.

the polyester was from a japanese co. called toray.

it lasted for a long time, but dti had some delam problems. it eventaully turned purple after 5-7 years.

dti became msc-solar gard and they stop buy from toray.

Be sure to get some samples of different manny's 5%. some 5's are so dark you cant see nothing but shadows looking out (ValueTint) and some are lighter and have good clarity (SunTek). i'm still searchin manny's for that perfect 5% that has good clarity, color stable, and is a nice black color on the outside.

ATC 5 has a nice deep black look, no reflectivity. It is color stable so it will hold its color for a little while but eventually fade out

It really holds its color and darkness, I just saw a car I did when they first gave out samples of it and its perfect. The car is parked outside too.

bingo.gif I've done a ton of cars with that film 3+ years ago and their all still holding up very well.

I know its still dark, but side by side with a true 5% film, you can tell a difference on two cars.

You can't expect their least costly 5% to last. Purple - couple of years, and bubbling - after 3 years. twocents.gif
VIP tint + glass
+1 on ATC05

as in the Supreme?

Supreme 8 is a 8% film, so side by side with a true 5% its noticeable lighter dunno.gif

5% NR Diamond Black from solarfree is superb.... its a damn thick film at 2 mil, color stable, and a little pricey but its worth it imo. ill post some pictures of my customer's car soon.

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
