The only films that will be on Crystalline performance level will be Huper Optik Ceramic, Huper Optik Drei, and Prestige Photosync. However, Photosync is pretty new some people question their numbers because of the lack of outside testing.īefore you read below, keep in mind just because it says Carbon, Ceramic, etc doesn't mean it is any good. Just depends on the specific brand in question. Also "nano" just means the particles are smaller.that is it. I am sure they will have a "nano" film available at Pep Boys or Walmart soon. Here is Flexfilm Panaflex.top piece is out of the box and bottom piece is little under 3 years. I have seen it start turning purple around the 10 month mark.3 cars all total all installed by us. Not to mention the images below is the rest of Flexfilm's lineup. So I'm all in on the Nano films (CXP, CR, PS) and had Crystalline on my last car. This time around I was going to use CXP mainly due to cost-to-value ratio vs. Crystalline: similar performance specs across the board at 40/50% of price. Additionally, I didn't care too much for the colors of CR: 70/60 looks bluish and 40/50 bronze/brown hue.

CXP looks more grey/charcoal uniformly across all shades. However, my local dealer threw me curve by introducing Panaflex Ceramic.

The installer thought the PF ceramic does a better job in performance and is more expensive than CXP. I'm not so sure - all the specs I've read seem to indicate better performance numbers from the Nano films.

Plus I'm wary of this Panaflex ceramic since I only see limited info for film and company. #SPECTRA PHOTOSYNC VS 3M CRYSTALLINE PLUS# Can you guys help with the sanity check here? What am I missing? Thanks. I think you may be reading into "BRANDS" way to much. My recommendation to you is go to your most experienced local shop and use or have them use what they recommend to you, overall a good standing business will take care of you.īut most of all these "brand" companies selling these updated films to customers/dealers is also new with exception of some manny's out there who've had ceramic for years. The more you read into brands the more confused you'll get. Thank you for that very useful info I'll be sure to stay away from the Panaflex. In regards to the Ceramic, I've had Formula One Pinnacle on my wife's minivan and it's been going 4 years strong. It still looks classy and very factory like to this day. My sole reservation about it is there is no Pinnacle 70 or 80 for the windshield. I would have to go to Air 80 which I've read cast more of a blue hue to it. Yes, AIR 80 has a touch of blue, but it is so minor I personally don't notice it. #SPECTRA PHOTOSYNC VS 3M CRYSTALLINE PLUS#.


See what Joe has to say in his photosync tint review. Joe Rose of the DC/Baltimore area just had the Photosync 55/45 installed on the sides and rear and 75/70 on the windshield of his car by AP Tinting. Read more to see the proof behind this beautiful tint and exactly why AP Tinting customers are raving. Once summer has taken its wrath and leaves begin to fall, normal tints don’t have the technology to lighten up for cloudy days however, Spectra Photosync Tint has the power to do just that. You could blame the high demand on one extremely hot summer, but the sale of this tint won’t dwindle after summer fades to fall. This extraordinary window tint with a solar adaptive technology reacts to the strength of solar rays, lightening or darkening before your eyes. The demand for Spectra Photosync Tint has skyrocketed within the last few months, but the reasons why are as clear as the tint itself.
