HEXIS SKYLINE CLIMATE
Metallized film carries sputtered or vacuum-deposited metal that reflects heat. It's durable and color-stable but a little reflective, and the metal can weaken phone, GPS and toll-tag signals. Compare the types of window film.

Visualize the shades: tint preview and heat rejected
The tint preview shows how each shade darkens the view from inside (visible light transmission, VLT); screens vary, so use it as a guide. Heat rejected is total solar energy rejected (TSER): higher is cooler.
