Xpel XR+ vs SunTek CIR Automotive Window Tint - Heat Sheet Comparison

[@mo-215]

super helpful in my shopping and comparison. I hear good things about Suntek but to see a demo like this is very helpful, thank you!

[@WonderlandUnited]

Totally awesome demo! Short, sweet and to the point. Thanks!

[@houstonkorbin550]

i know I am quite off topic but do anybody know of a good site to watch newly released series online ?

@Bryant Jayce thanks, signed up and it seems like a nice service :) I really appreciate it!!

[@bryantjayce1273]

@Houston Korbin glad I could help xD

[@starwarsfanforlife]

Thanks for the comparison! I was on the fence now I believe I will get the Xpel for my Model 3!

[@Rmccullo808]

starwarsfanforlife I recommend it. I’ve been installing it on my customer’s Model 3’s and they all love it.

[@SpringfieldsPerfecTint]

We tint and PPF a lot of Tesla’s, using XPEL products. No complaints, all compliments. I have a model S back in here today, having even more work done.

[@brianswails7276]

Did you go with xpel for your 3? The installer I have schedule with uses Suntek..but after watching this video I think xpel would be better. The messed up thing is non of y’all are in New York Area!

[@starwarsfanforlife]

Brian Swails yes I went with the XPEL XR PLUS, the nano-ceramic tint. It blocks heat very well and looks great. I did 32%, now I wish I had done the 20%. I did it different however I split the back window and didn’t do it in one piece. I did 32%all the way around driver to passenger door but the back glad only up to the factory tint. From the factory tint all the way up to above the driver I only did 80% just to get some heat block. Then I did 80% on the front windshield (you can’t even really see it) so it knocks the glare down.

[@brianswails7276]

starwarsfanforlife thanks looking at doing 20% all the way around and 50% for the windshield. I think I’m going to go with one piece for the roof and may do something lighter..but I haven’t decided that yet

[@momurderah]

Amazing video, exactly what I was looking while shopping for a ceramic film for my car

[@ry03pn]

Brilliant! Awesome video.

[@paulinadunn4743]

Thanks for the demo! I would be interested to see how Xpel xr plus compares to the new Suntek Evolve series

[@SpringfieldsPerfecTint]

I would like to see that as well, I’ll have to get a sample. Hopefully with this new line of tint they got rid of the green hue it has and went to a black look. Also their darker films fading to purple and the adhesive failure we’ve been seeing on cars that had SunTek installed less than four years ago.

[@ParanormalMetalMan]

I just got suntek Ceramic on my 2018 civic and I live in phoenix Az where it can get to 120 degrees at worst in summer, 5%back windows and 30% front side windows, do i have anything to worry about with longevity and durability ? The guy who installed it did a fantastic job and I honestly didn't know there were so many brands.. There's a million tinting services here it was hard to decide when I didn't know too much really

[@PhaseSkater]

I got my suntek taken off and relaxed with xr plus. I have a black car and go to Phoenix a lot and used to live there

[@tillman904]

Where did you get that heat box I like it

[@mica122213]

I have XPEL and and solargard and 3M on a few different cars.. XPEL is has darker look where solargard has a purplish hue both while brand new. XPEL is a step above the rest has the right color. In a real world comparison.

[@faultless18]

How’s the 3M film compare and did you get ceramic ir?

[@davehwaful]

Hi #teamxpel! I was wondering where you acquired your demo box! I have been searching for a good demo box to be displayed in the lobby.. Could you help me where you got them? Thank you in advance. Awesome video! 👏👏

[@Sky1]

I just got Carbon 40 installed. It looks pretty good a bit foggy, maybe cause it is new? But first drive with it, I could feel the heat on my arm when the sun came through the glass, seemed like no difference then before I got them tinted over the factory tint. Did not mean to put on a cheap product, do not want scratches. I would have gladly spent more if I could have got a better product.

[@SpringfieldsPerfecTint]

Sky1 we don’t carry a film called Carbon 40. SunTek and I believe Global carries a brand called Carbon. I’m guessing you didn’t come to us to have your tint installed?

[@bklynjohn717]

If your refering to suntek carbon, they have a haze to them which i hate. Im in the process of having my suntek csrbon removed and going xpel ceramic.

[@JoeRussellProductions]

This is impressive... but one note here. The XR+ is not the same as the regular XR stuff. I wish you included the Xpel XR in this video comparison as well. XR+ is about $150 more all around the car (not including the front) than the regular XR. Not sure if that is worth the extra 9% heat reduction. Thoughts?

[@SpringfieldsPerfecTint]

Joe Russell, we have it in our heat box now. There’s a big difference between the XR & XR PLUS, in terms of IR reduction and even optical clarity. If you’d like to come by sometime, we’d be happy to show you the comparison.

[@JoeRussellProductions]

@@SpringfieldsPerfecTint I am not sure how I missed it... but I now see that you did compare the regular Xpel XR to the plus. Excellent job! My bad! Can't come by because I am in CA.

[@Hakuna_My_Tatas]

Joe Russell, ultimate protective film quoted my 2014 Accord sport sedan $600 for the Xpel Prime XR Plus. Not sure where in CA you are, but give them a try. I have an appt with them this coming Wednesday. Hopefully they actually do install the XR plus and not some generic ceramic tint. Perfect tint, would I be able to do some type of test to verify that they did install the right XR+ tint? Would an infrared thermometer do? Wondering where i can get that heat sheet and try to replicate that test once the tint is done and do it inside my car out in the sun.

[@JoeRussellProductions]

@@Hakuna_My_Tatas Thank you for the referral! UltimateProtectiveFilm.com gave me the best price as well, though I will likely go with Wincos film instead of XR Plus. Thanks for the suggestion!

[@WindowTintWarriors]

hey boss, Where can one get that heat box?

[@SpringfieldsPerfecTint]

Window Tint Warriors check with your tint supplier

[@WindowTintWarriors]

Perfect Tint for that exact Heat box?

[@TheWarlock86]

How you doing? Thank you for the information! I use a lot of suntek CIR but im been thinking on getting xpel xr plus too, how do you get that product? Im in Houston tx, thank you for the response in advance! Great video by the way!

[@Rmccullo808]

Alex Diaz I used CIR for a bit and just couldn’t get behind that product. I didn’t like the extreme green look and the heat rejection didn’t stack up

[@TheWarlock86]

@@Rmccullo808 yes im having same feeling that is too green, i haven't had any customer complains but i feel the Xpel XR looks better than CIR

[@SpringfieldsPerfecTint]

The color and performance of Xpel is far better than SunTek. We didn’t like the color of CIR either. It’s also very hard to get a tool scratch in Xpel, where SunTek would easily get fine scratches with the best tools. To get Xpel, you would need to contact Xpel and they will have a rep reach out to you.

[@wolfy1377]

What's the price difference on the cir and xr+

[@chrgav1286]

Rafael Sanpablo Depends on where you get it from and location but CIR in my area is $399(Nevada), which is not worth it. I would go with Xpel XR which is priced at $350 and has a better IR.

[@chrgav1286]

I believe their XR+ is similar pricing to Crystalline, Huper and Photosync which is $500+(Nevada).

[@D1G1TALSYNAPS3]

Double, the price increase is 100%

[@chrgav1286]

D1G1TALSYNAPS3 what price increase 100%?

[@davehwaful]

Any updates on where you got the tint demo box?

[@SpringfieldsPerfecTint]

David Hwang I got mine from my film supplier

[@davehwaful]

@@SpringfieldsPerfecTint right is that XPEL? Or someone else? Thank you for the reply

[@SpringfieldsPerfecTint]

David Hwang Xpel offers a nice one. I got this one a long time ago from another supplier, but don’t remember who.

[@davehwaful]

@@SpringfieldsPerfecTint ah understood. Turning feature is what I really want though.. I got XPEL's wow box but it got its limits.. thank you!

[@ryandyson5398]
