Solar Gard NR UV Clear
Discontinued. Not on Solar Gard's current site. Its clear UV car film is now the LX series. On Solar Gard's US performance sheet of February 2004 and gone from its performance page by October 2007.
Clear UV film is almost invisible. It blocks about 99% of ultraviolet light to protect skin and interiors, but it does little for heat or glare. Compare the types of window film.

Figures are measured on single-pane clear glass; results on your windows will vary. Archived specs may differ from what was sold near the end of the line.
Darkness limits for cars are set by each state. Check your state's tint law before choosing a shade.
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.
