All questions

The full list

• Will the film affect my ERP transponder, GPS or mobile signal?

  No. Every Infratint film is a metal-free nano-ceramic, so there is no metallic content to attenuate signals. Your In-Vehicle Unit (IU) reads ERP gantries normally, our films are fully compatible with the next-generation On-Board Unit (OBU) for ERP 2.0, and CarPlay, Android Auto and GPS all work exactly as before.

• What is the LTA's rule on window tint VLT?

  Singapore's Land Transport Authority requires ≥70% combined glass-plus-film Visible Light Transmission on the front windscreen and ≥25% on side windows and the rear windscreen. We measure post-installation VLT on every window with a calibrated photometer and guarantee a pass at VICOM inspection.

• What happens if my car fails VICOM inspection because of the tint?

  If your vehicle fails VICOM VLT measurement due to film we installed, we re-do the installation at no charge. We measure pre-release so this is rare, but the guarantee holds.

• How long does the install take?

  Most full-car installations take about 3 hours. Add 30 to 60 minutes if existing film needs removing first. It's a same-day service, so there's no overnight drop-off: you can wait in our customer lounge or explore nearby amenities while we work, one car at a time in a dust-controlled bay.

• How long does Platinum99 last?

  Platinum99 holds its appearance and heat-rejection performance for 10 to 15 years in Singapore tropical conditions. Its 7-year warranty for the original owner covers bubbling, peeling, silvering, fade and adhesive failure.

• Why is ceramic film worth more than carbon or dyed?

  Ceramic uses nano-particles to selectively reject infrared at peak heat-rejection wavelengths while staying optically clear. Carbon rejects modestly via absorption; dyed rejects very little and fades to purple in 12 to 24 months in Singapore sun. Quality ceramic delivers far higher total solar energy rejection than carbon, and dyed trails both by a wide margin.

• Will the tint look obviously dark from outside?

  Windscreen tint stays optically clear: the LTA's 70% VLT rule effectively requires this. Side and rear windows can go darker. We typically recommend 30 to 40% VLT on side windows for privacy without compromising night-time visibility. Rear glass can go further if you prefer.

• Can I roll my windows down right after installation?

  Wait at least 24 hours for front side windows, and ideally 7 days for rear side windows and the rear windscreen. The pressure-sensitive adhesive cures over 3 to 7 days in Singapore conditions. Rolling windows down too early can disturb the bond and create edge defects.

• What about water bubbles in the first week?

  Small water bubbles immediately after installation are normal: they're application solution evaporating through the film. They clear within 3 to 7 days as the adhesive cures. Persistent bubbles after two weeks are uncommon; bring the car in for inspection if you see them.

• What cleaners can I use on the tinted windows?

  Use an ammonia-free glass cleaner and a soft clean microfibre cloth. Ammonia damages film adhesives and hard coats. For everyday cleaning, mild soap and water with a microfibre is also fine. Avoid abrasive products entirely.

• How much does Platinum99 actually cost?

  A full-car Platinum99 install starts at S$788: the top of our 3-tier range and our most heat-rejecting film. Windscreen-only Platinum99 from S$300. MPV/SUV adds S$50. WhatsApp us with your vehicle make and model for an exact quote, or see the full price table at /pricing.

• Do you offer warranty replacement on tint from other workshops?

  We can replace film originally installed elsewhere as a paid retint. Warranty work at no charge is only for film we installed under an active Infratint warranty. Out-of-warranty retints are quoted at our standard rate.
