Color hue on CTX, IRX, Pinnacle

[HDClown]

Deciding on tint to use on my BMW M340i in Portimao Blue down in central florida and have read some posts saying that Formula One would have a more green hue but regular Llumar more blue hue.

 

I contacted a few of the highly reputable shops in the area and received prices of $250/CTX, $290/Pinnacle, $420/IRX, $490/Stratos (no real intention to use Stratos, but figured I'd throw it out for price comparison).   When I compare all the specs, I am seeing Pinnacle and IRX are basically identical so Pinnacle is a much better deal for me.   I'm just concerned about possible green hues since that doesn't sound like it would look very good on the deep blue paint.   I would be going with 15 or 25 on all sides/rear, nothing on front, interior is black. 

 

I'm not too keen on spending $130 more for IRX over Pinnacle for same specs but if that means I don't have green hues, maybe it would be worth it.  This is a price jump in general for me as all my cars in past 10+ years have been Solar Gard HP Charcoal 13 which I've never had any complaints about, but the guy I normally use is too busy so going to branch out.  I'm willing to spend more this time because I'm interested in ceramic and higher IR rejection.

The hue isn't going to be noticeable from the outside, especially in those shades with a black interior, so I wouldn't worry about it clashing with the blue paint. It's more of an undertone that's noticeable when looking out from the inside, and even then it's pretty subtle for most films, not everyone is even going to notice it. I'm not a llumar dealer so I can't speak for those films in particular but I imagine that you'll probably be happy with any of them.

Pinnacle will look just fine.
