Maybe it is but it's glorified

I guess they think if you put sugar on it will taste better going down?

At Sema last year, Moonraker's booth was right next to SolarGuard's booth. It was quite sad, people were falling all over themselves at the SG booth, and the moonraker booth was totally empty, no one was even looking at it. Kinda felt bad for them. But, not bad enough to buy any!

Moonraker is manufactured in canada by a company named Alpeena, the shop here in NY that I tint for offers it. I would not put this film on my car. I prefer a higher quality film. There are several things I h@te about the film, heat shrinking is one of them, the other is the adhesive. It seems as more & more cars come back because the tint is cominf off the sides from underneath the gaskets, this film must take to ling to dry, or simply it just sucks. I do understand u'r point about there being so many competitors in NY . We get the cheapest damn customers coming by to get tint put on their cars, they don't want to pay. But I believe that is the shops fault,  when I get a customer and I tell him his choices 99% of the time he will go with a better brand. U see what happens is that we work for people that , foe example, the guy I work for has no idea how to install the film nor has any clue about what brand is best or % of film, nothing. He only knows that he can make $$$ with this film, but he doesn't know that in long run he is losing out. Why? Because if for every 10 cars u do, 6 come back and u have to replace a window here & there , u will be losing out on film, and not to mention , the customer will not be satisfied , he will think u guys suck at installing because he has to come back frequently to have this done...so your better off installing a quality film that will last and look alot better, u'r customer will be happy...

I had that occur with MMM film back in Florida on a Pathfinder... stripped it all in 10-15 minutes... called customer to come get it and had to tell the story...

No charge... didn't have it in me to take his money for a minor stripping effort...
