Tint Solar Gard or Llumar

Ok, i'm getting tint done on the G next week and the shop has the Solargard HP Charcoal 32 and Llumar ATR 30 but can't decide on which film to get.
Also i want to avoid the "green hue" look. Anybody have these films? Please need help to decide

I have read on the net that some windows films have a green color. Also our cars have already a factory tint which gives a slight greenish look to the windows. The llumar ATR and solargard HP charcoal are my available choices

My boyfriend manages a tint shop - not too sure on Llumar, but I do know that Solargard is one of the higher-end films out there. Not too many shops use them because it costs more and is thinner (which makes it harder to work with) but most their films are lifetime guaranteed against fading.

Ive had Solargard Supreme and the Ceramic on 4 cars now and think its a great bang for the buck. Another thing is that Solargard is extremely clear, some other films distort your view (youll notice this more during night driving, looking out your rear window).

Ceramic tint absolutely does NOT have a green hue! At least not Solargard.

Look into 3m. I don't think either of those brands are necessarily good.
