# 🚗 Protint – Premium Detailing & Protection for the Škoda Kodiaq
## 🦅 A Special Note for Škoda Kodiaq Owners
The **Škoda Kodiaq** is the flagship SUV of the Czech brand—a magnificent 7-seater that represents the pinnacle of European engineering, sophisticated design, and family-friendly practicality. As Škoda's largest SUV, the Kodiaq combines a powerful 2.0-litre TSI petrol engine (190 PS, 320 Nm), on-demand all-wheel drive, a 5-star Euro NCAP safety rating, and a spacious, premium cabin, all wrapped in sharp 'crystal-cuts' design language.
At **Protint**, we understand that Kodiaq owners value:
- **Family comfort** – ensuring all 7 passengers stay cool and protected
- **European luxury preservation** – maintaining the Kodiaq's sophisticated paint finishes and premium cabin
- **Safety system integrity** – zero interference with the Kodiaq's ADAS and connected features
- **Resale value retention** – a well-protected Kodiaq commands premium pricing
> **⚠️ Important Legal Note for Indian Kodiaq Owners**: Indian law mandates **minimum 70% VLT for front/rear windshields** and **50% VLT for side windows** . The Supreme Court’s 2012 ruling prohibits aftermarket tinted films that reduce visibility below these levels . **Penalties** for non-compliance include on-the-spot removal and fines up to ₹1, 000 . **We strictly follow the law** by recommending **removable mesh sunshades** (legal only while parked) and **factory-fitted tinted glass** (OEM option).
## ⚖️ Legal Sun Protection & Heat Rejection
The Kodiaq's massive glasshouse and optional panoramic sunroof require effective heat rejection, but we use only legally compliant methods.
### ❌ What is NOT Legal
- Any aftermarket tinted film that reduces VLT below 70% (windshields) or 50% (side windows)

## 🛡️ Paint Protection Film (PPF) – Invisible Armor for the Kodiaq
