I 100% agree Howard. It would be nice to have some sort of a clarification as to the actual ingredients. I was just wanting to see what my bottles listed as the ingredients since there seemed to be a differing of opinion on the matter. I by no means am pointing any fingers as to which is the correct listing of ingredients, only stating that my current inventory matches the photo that Ralph has posted. We have turned our inventory of the Film-On products many times since the date of the MSDS.

 

Got me  :dunno

It's probably just a clerical or record keeping error.  They are generally rather careful over there.

 

In the meantime, I will hold off on drinking any more of it until this is cleared up!

I think that I will stick with the Single Malt's if I am going to be drinking anything.

Hey Howard, 

 

Maybe you can send me some of your solution for my colonoscopy.  I need a good slip solution that I can trust. :lol   lol

 

You got it Ralph.  Our crew will send you 2 gallons.  You can use any leftovers to install some Flex.

 

Just kidding.  I hope it goes well and they find nothing.

 My understanding is that only those 2 ingredients are present.  Perhaps the packaging was never updated to reflect the current contents?

:yeah Any possible other ingredients may fall below the bar for reporting on SDS, in that the percentage is too low to be deemed worthy of reporting. To my understanding Film On underwent a slight reformulation earlier this year. I find it just a bit thicker when dispensed.  :dunno

Hi Smart,

 

Once again - I think you figured it out.

 

I bet $1 that a revision to the MSDS will be forthcoming, perhaps as a result of this thread.  The current MSDS indicates that it is safe to drink small amounts, but the additional items on that list are definitely unfit for human ingestion.

 

Although the new formulation may not be safe to drink, I am sure that it's safe for film.  I have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for that team and they would never do anything which could negatively impact the longevity profile of their film.

 

As far as I can tell, there is no ppm threshold for required inclusion in an MSDS.  The only guidance I could find was "significant quantities" which is open to interpretation. 

 

Regards,

 

Howard

      EXPERIENCED TINT & PPF INSTALLER NEEDED IN NORTH DALLAS

      I am looking for an experienced Window Tint and/or PPF installer for a new shop opening in North Dallas (Frisco, Prosper, McKinney area). Must be damn good with a strong work ethic and put out quality work. You’ll have plenty of freedom but work is expected to get done as customers come first. For the right person, Job has the potential to become more but that depends on you and your goals. Feel free to reach out anytime.

      TintX Puremax and Koolmax

      All Right cool. I've been practicing with an inexpensive tint I found on amazon. Its called Rockrose. I'm just about ready to make some cards to pass around to get clientele. I've been debating if I should start with Puremax cuz its a lot cheaper or Geoshield cuz of the great quality I've heard of. I'll probably go with Geoshield so I can make it easy on myself and make sure I do great quality work for my customers. Are you already doing doing jobs for customers? If so, did you stop using the Puremax and now only use Geoshield?

      Heavy Ghosting - Geoshield "Geo" Line

      Ghosting week require a smoother, more even and spread out shrink. Look at my old "ryk shrink" using 2 heart guns with an over/under setup. That would be my suggestion.

      Heavy Ghosting - Geoshield "Geo" Line

      Hey all, I am not a pro tinter but more or less just someone who likes to experiment / DIY. Wanted to ask if there was anyone here who has used the Geoshield "Geo" line for automotive purposes? I really like the color, but I get really bad ghosting for anything that requires decent shrinking. The film is specced as architectural, but has a PS adhesive so some use it in auto applications. I sent an email to see if that is the reason why it's for flat glass .. lol This is a sputtered TiN film and has a beautiful color imho. This reminds me of Huper Optik, and not quite sure but I think Johnson had a line called "InsulatIR" that I could never get my hands on to try. The film has a slightly purplish reflection (TiN I guess), when put on green auto glass, filters out and looks super neutral. ❤️ I've had it on my auto for a while but my rear window is a mess when the sun hits it (ghosting) and was curious if this is just not suitable for auto Any info would be appreciated. Skill issue, ie: shrink with lower heat? lol Thanks.

      chameleon window tint good quality

      If you don't mind trying to source some, there is a large Japanese manufacturer that makes a bunch of dichroic - looking films. It might be your style, but it would be hard to get your hands on some. https://www.braintec.co.jp/filmlab/ I believe some of the films do have decent heat-rejection, but because of the nature of the films, looking through them can be really funky. They are well-known in Japan and would likely be of decent quality. Also, very expensive. Depending on where you are, shipping would also be $$$.

      TintX Puremax and Koolmax

      I feel the difference in quality with geoshield. Not only is it easier to peel the liner off but shrinking feels better and I think the material feels slightly thicker(helps with not creasing) Only downside that the price noticeably different. For mainly everything Its atleast another 100 on top of for example stuff from tints Lexen. I haven’t tried solarfree either.

      Automotive Tint Comparison

      At least twice, yes. Although since we don't know what vehicle it is you're planning to tint, that was a bit presumptuous of me.
