    Customer looking to reduce interior cabin temperatures for his Panamera as we are in the midst of a heat wave and driving comfort is important to most coming through Premier. We have been running 95-100 degree days here, so this product makes sense. First off, let's answer some FAQs:

    1. How does Prestige's PhotoSync differ from the tints on the market?
    a) Dyed Films (the most popular due to cost and availability) - 20%-30% in infrared rejection / Total Solar Energy Rejection: 20%-40%
    b) Metallic Films (dying breed due to more and more electronics in cars today) - 40%-60% infrared rejection / Total Solar Energy Rejection: 40%-55%
    c) Ceramics (certain ceramic brands actually still use metallics despite claiming none in its composition and will also distort when heat shrunk to fit to the rear glass) - 50% - 80% infrared rejection / Total Solar Energy Rejection: 40% - 55%
    d) IR film - 45%-55% Infrared Rejection / Total Solar Energy Rejection: 40% - 55%

    E) Spectra PhotoSync Solar Adaptive Nano Window Film (only technology of its kind) - up to 98.5% Infrared Rejection / Total Solar Energy Rejection: 61%-65%

    Have you had customers with polarized glasses drive a car with this film? What has their feedback been like?

    Yes, we are waiting for the newest version from the manufacturer, which should be here by the end of September.

    So far no complaints. It is also dependent on the darkness of the polarized sunglasses. The darker they are, the more you will see a light rainbow effect...only from certain angles though.

    Here is a video documenting a test we performed on a vehicle with Spectra PhotoSync 65% installed (65% visible light transmission - OEM glass is typically rated between 85%-89%). The test utilizes a BTU meter and measured in 78 degree weather at approximately 2pm.

    One of the most commonly asked question is how well does Spectra PhotoSync compare with other window tint products. So we decided to actually put Spectra PhotoSync to test against a 5% metallic limo tint. Now keep in mind, the shades we used for comparison is PhotoSync65, 55, and 45, so much lighter compared to limo tint at 5%. There is also one major difference - the limo tint has metals in it so it can produce some decent heat rejection that would be comparable to a lighter ceramic based tint:

    Here is another test we just conducted. Details to this test:

    Product: Spectra PhotoSync

    Site: www.prestige-films.com

    *Weather - 95 degrees
    *Film was half covered for 15 minutes and exposed direct sunlight
    *Time of test: 3pm
    *Products being tested: Spectra PhotoSync75, 65, 55, and 45%

    Pros:
    *No longer have to go dark to block out heat
    *blocks out up to 98.5% of infrared rays across the spectrum while most window films on the market only rejects 20%-30%

    Another test we conducted recently. With Prestige Film Technologies' Spectra PhotoSync Nano Window Film. We decided to document this test to show how well this product performs compared to a leading 30% ceramic tint. The previous test was done compared to a ceramic 40%. Test specs:

    Spectra PhotoSync 65% (yes, we are using a lighter film to compare with a darker 30% ceramic tint)
    *product to the left

    VS.

    30% Ceramic (one of the more popular ceramic tint products on the market....sorry, we are not going to name the manufacturer of this product, but can say it is likely the most well-known on the market)
    *product to the right

    Conditions:

    Outdoor Temperature: 75 degrees

    Test Time: 2pm

    Measurement Equipment: BTU Meter aimed directly at the window films to obtain simultaneous readings for accuracy

    Test Subject: Raging Gray Bull named the Aventador
