Message: <blockquote data-quote="Traveler" data-source="post: 403031" data-attributes="member: 7248">I'm starting to wonder regarding the effectiveness of the security tint films on the market. I've recently heard 2 stories, one from friend's colleague (using a cheap kind of security film, not sure which brand), and another from a fellow member of the club (V-Kool security film). Both cases involved cars stuck in traffic. In the first case, the window was smashed in one hit, while in the 2nd case, two hits to break the glass. In both cases, the thief was after handbag left on the seat (back seat and front passenger seat).I always thought it would take at least a few hits to smash the window? How come only one/two hits to smash the window? Granted that a sharp object should be able to penetrate the window/film but the general integrity of the window/film should last a few hits, if the manufacturers' claims are to be believed. Anyone have any thoughts on this?</blockquote>
