Genesis GV80 Coupe: The Importance of Pre-Tint Inspection
Congratulations to the owner of this stunning Genesis GV80 Coupe, a fully-optioned vehicle nearing a ₩100 million price tag. As a special gift for the owner's son returning from military service, the vehicle received a premium window tinting treatment at the O-neul-car Gwangju Dong-gu branch. To ensure customer satisfaction and save valuable time, a thorough new car inspection was conducted before the tinting process began. This meticulous inspection covers everything from minor exterior scratches and panel gaps to ensuring all electronic features function correctly, especially crucial for advanced vehicles like the GV80 Coupe. The entire inspection process is transparent, with the customer involved every step of the way.
Why Choose Huper Optik FNASE Window Film?
For this particular GV80 Coupe, the chosen window film was Huper Optik's premium 'FNASE' (Fine Nano Ceramic) series. FNASE film is renowned for its exceptional heat rejection capabilities and crystal-clear visibility. However, it is also known for being one of the more challenging films to install due to its susceptibility to heat-induced distortion, often referred to as 'blooming' or 'white haze.' This makes professional installation by a certified and experienced shop paramount. As a certified Huper Optik dealer, the O-neul-car Gwangju Dong-gu branch boasts skilled technicians with the expertise to achieve flawless results with this high-performance film.
The FNASE Window Film Installation Process
The chosen tint specifications for this GV80 Coupe were 30% for the front windshield, 5% for the side windows, and 5% for the rear windshield. The 30% front tint offers an optimal balance, providing glare reduction and privacy without obstructing the driver's view. The 5% tint on the sides and rear maximizes privacy and significantly reduces solar heat gain inside the cabin. The installation process begins with meticulous masking of the vehicle's paint and interior to prevent any accidental damage.
Installation process:
- Surface Preparation: Thoroughly cleaning and degreasing all glass surfaces to ensure optimal adhesion.
- Film Cutting and Shaping: Precisely cutting the FNASE film to match the exact contours of each window, often using specialized software and plotters.
- Heat Application and Shrinking: Carefully applying heat to the film to shrink it and conform to the curved glass, requiring precise temperature control to avoid distortion.
- Application and Squeegeeing: Applying the film to the glass with a slip solution and meticulously squeegeeing out all water and air bubbles to ensure a smooth, clear finish.
- Edge Trimming and Curing: Trimming any excess film around the edges for a clean look and allowing the film to cure properly.
The unique properties of FNASE film necessitate expert handling of heat application to control its expansion and contraction. The technicians at O-neul-car Gwangju Dong-gu are adept at managing these variables, ensuring the film adheres perfectly without imperfections. Post-installation, a final inspection is performed to guarantee no bubbles or debris are trapped beneath the film. Huper Optik authenticity stickers are applied to the windshield and side windows, confirming the use of genuine products.
