Shawn C · 08-07-2008, 07:14 AM

Also is it suitable for roaduse, Safe etc?

I don't have it but hope to get it someday. I just got my first ding, and I am taking the Exige to Novus or someplace nearby, to have it repaired. I am sure everyone has read the numerous posts about safety, etc. What I haven't seen discussed, and what I am thinking of doing, is getting the windscreen and the windscreen tear-aways. It seems that the scratch issues, etc could be fixed with the tear-aways, and lets not forget Naval Jelly.

Mr C, I'm not far away (Seattle) so if you ever do but this on, send me a PM, I'd love to come check it out, and hear your experiences.

Cheers,

Trevor

I'm not familiar with this.
Someone suggested 3M Crystalite and I am thinking about using it on my car even on the windshield on the inside.
In this case, it is a car with very flat glass, so I am planning on using the high security 6 mil film.
I don't know how that would work on a curve.
Maybe it is usable on the outside?
They make a very light tint with impressive heat reflection results, in theory.

I have seen impressive safety results with 1 mil mylar.
A friend was asking about using it on both sides of the glass.
