UV Protective Film

Question:

Hello Bea, This issue has been discussed before. http://groups.google.com/groups?as_epq=window%20film&as_ugroup=alt.su… Perhaps reading through the threads will give you some tips? There may be a difference in how long the blocking lasts between film on vehicles (often exposed to sunlight) vs windows (depending on which side of the house the windows are on, even geographical location, (ie how strong the sun is in any city/state/country..etc). Can the dealers provide more info as to what causes the "loss of UV screening". Perhaps then you can decide which product is best for you (weighing cost, efficacity, and application methods).

Hi! I need to have UV Protective film applied to my car due to systemic lupus. Does anyone out there have a recommendation for a particular brand?  Also, I understand some of these films lose UV blocking (ex: LLumar) over time and have to be replaced after 4-5 years.  Other films, such as, "Solarstat", claim there is no loss of UV screening.  I’d appreciate any input you might be able to provide.  Thanks! Bea

Hi back,  We have the film applied to the whole house plus the car and we can’t tell if there is a lessening of the film after 11 years.  How would you test for it?  Ours has a 15 year guarantee.  Wow I have had lupus for 16 years and I thought I would wear our before the film !!!!!!!  ruth

Hello Had uv protection put on my car.  It was done by Zbart.  Nice job too.  Life time warranty.  It was the second step number 32% I think.  It is not considered legal in OHIO, unless you have a script saying you need it done.  Which I carry in my glove box. I was worried about this, but darn it anyhow.  I drive around and low and behold can not see in to other cars cause their tint is darker.  NOW I didn’t know there were so many of us loopies running around LOL NO I realize there are a lot of people with sun sensitvity, but had to make joke too. I suggest you ask your police what is legal and what not in your state too. But I highly recommend Zbart they did a nice job for me. Oh there is stuff you can by in the auto store and put it on yourself too.  BUT clucky me, wouldn’t try that one. janers

I can’t tell from your posting where in the world you are, but your state / country may have some regulations on this.
