Re: [VAC] Tinted defelective windoew paper



I had tint applied to my '78 Argosy on the side windows and rear flat 
windows only.  Used, if I remember correctly, one it was about 80%.  It 
looked dark from the outside but it definitely darkened the interior.  
However, the heat from the sun was our concern and it really cut down on 
the heat.  A secondary benefit was that is was very effective in blocking 
the view from the outside to inside of the trailer and we  appreciate the 
privacy when at a close packed rally or rv campground when you don't have 
to pull down shades or whatever you have.  Be sure an use a good quality 
3M film as it will last longer.  The only curved window treatment I have 
seen was done with multiple strips and I didn't think it look very good.
