Ask 10 different tinters what film to use and you'll get 10 different responses. Try 'em and you'll find one you like.

Quantum by Bekaert is hard to beat for longevity and performance.

Excellent colour stability over a long period of time but harder to shrink and dry out being sputtered. Final results once all on and cured are excellent, can be grainy.

Madico's Onyx is showing excellent results as well 4-5 years down the track but again a s.o.b to shrink.

JWF's Silhouette as you are probably using is brilliant value for money and top performance. Impossible to justify the others asking prices compared to this manufacturer IMHO.

Sgarb....sell the backing sheet instead.

Hanita....excellent performances, nice colours, great clarity.

Huper...Extremely difficult to shrink, hone your seaming skills, brilliant TSER, super optical clarity.

V-Kool.....The ultimate providing you can suffer the drying out and ridiclous asking prices. only very light of course.

The ones I know of in recent usuages.

I have used all of the above films and have settled with LLumar's ATR and PP films. They shrink awesome, have excellent clarity and have never had a problem with dry time in the winter.

I get my film from Tint Terrorist I have no idea what brand it is It just says on the box.
