How do I clean the tinted windows on my BYD Dolphin?
Wait about a week for the film to cure. Then clean with a soft microfibre cloth and water or a mild ammonia-free glass cleaner. Avoid ammonia-based sprays, abrasive pads and sharp objects near the film edges. That is all the maintenance your Dolphin's tint needs.
Does Quad Film tint turn purple or bubble on a Dolphin?
No. Purple fade and bubbling are the signature failures of cheap dyed films. Quad Film uses multi-layer sputtering and nano-ceramic construction that is colour-stable for the long term. Every Dolphin passes a torchlight QC before leaving the bay, and every series carries a 5 to 15 year warranty, so any lifting or discolouration is covered.
What is the difference between Quad Film and cheap RM300 dyed tints on a Dolphin?
A RM300 dyed tint is coloured plastic: dark windows, weak heat rejection, purple fade within a year or two, no real warranty. On an EV like the Dolphin, weak heat rejection also forces the air-con to work harder, which eats into your range. Quad Film starts at RM1,400 for MATRIX with 99% infrared rejection, 99% UV rejection and a 5-year warranty. MEGALUX reaches TSER up to 85% at VLT 5 on the rear windows. You feel the difference every afternoon.
How long does it take to install window tint on a BYD Dolphin?
About 2 to 5 hours for a full car. The exact timing depends on the number of glass panels, windscreen curvature, the film series chosen (multi-layer sputtered films need more controlled heat-shrinking time), whether old tint needs steaming off, and the workshop queue when you arrive. We confirm your exact time slot when you book.
Will installing third-party tint void my BYD Dolphin's warranty?
No. Tinting does not touch your Dolphin's battery, motor, electronics or bodywork, so your BYD manufacturer warranty is unaffected. Our installers follow a documented 8-step process with door panel protection and torchlight QC. Every Quad Film series also carries its own 5 to 15 year warranty, plus a 100% Money Back Guarantee for Workmanship at authorized installers.
Will dark tint on my BYD Dolphin affect my night driving visibility?
Not with the right shade split. Keep the front at VLT 70, the JPJ-compliant setup for your Dolphin, and night visibility stays clear. If night clarity matters to you, METALUX is engineered with Night Vision Technology for optimal visibility in the dark, even for drivers with astigmatism. Use the darker VLT 20 or VLT 5 shades on the rear glass only, where there is no legal limit.
How much does it cost to tint a BYD Dolphin in Malaysia?
A full car tint for the BYD Dolphin starts from RM1,400 for MATRIX (nano-ceramic, 99% IRR, 5-year warranty) and goes up to RM4,600 for MEGALUX (48-layer sputtering, TSER up to 85% at VLT 5, 15-year warranty). In between: MIRACLE at RM2,000 (100% UV rejection, 7-year warranty), MAGNETRON at RM2,500 (hybrid sputtering, 99% IRR, 8-year warranty) and METALUX at RM3,200 (97% IRR, Night Vision Technology, 10-year warranty). All prices cover the full car, all 6 glass panels included.
What is the best VLT percentage for the BYD Dolphin to pass Puspakom?
Your Dolphin's front side glass comes in at about 76% VLT from the factory. Malaysian regulations require at least 50% final VLT on the front sides and 70% on the windscreen, so the front film needs to be at least 66% VLT. With Quad Film's VLT 70 film your final front VLT lands around 53%, safely above the limit. The rear glass is 25% privacy glass with no legal VLT limit, so go as dark as you like at the back. All five Quad Film series come in VLT 70 for the front.
A note we share openly: on the windscreen, even a VLT 70 film combines with factory glass to read in the low 50s, so on paper no heat-rejecting film passes a strict JPJ meter test there. In day-to-day practice it reads visually clear at roadblocks, and most owners go ahead. If you want to be 100% safe on paper, we can leave the windscreen untinted or fit a virtually clear safety film, and we can meter your actual glass free first.
Which Quad Film package is best for my BYD Dolphin with 6 glass panels?
Your Dolphin has 6 glass panels, a standard configuration, so even our entry-level MATRIX (nano-ceramic, 99% IRR) at RM1,400 delivers a big comfort jump. For the best performance-to-price ratio, MAGNETRON at RM2,500 is the smart pick: hybrid sputtering plus nano-ceramic, 99% IRR, TSER up to 79% at the VLT 5 rear shade. If you drive a lot at night, METALUX at RM3,200 is engineered with Night Vision Technology for optimal clarity, even for drivers with astigmatism.
Is Quad Film compatible with the BYD Dolphin's Smart Tag and RFID?
Yes, with the right setup. Touch 'n Go RFID runs on UHF radio. With the non-metallic films, MATRIX and MIRACLE, the RFID sticker reads through the tint. With metallic sputtered films (MEGALUX, METALUX, MAGNETRON), we fit the sticker on the headlamp, which is the more reliable position anyway. SmartTAG transponders use infrared, and every heat-rejecting film partially blocks infrared by design, so our installers leave a small untinted patch on the windscreen in front of the SmartTAG unit. Your toll scans work as usual.
