Prestige...

Performance numbers are TSER around 49%, VLT around 68%, VLR around 11% and solar absorption around 34%... appears to be non-metal, IR absorbing... impressive film indeed. Very similar to Vista Films Harmony series.

The new marketing strategy is playing with minds as if all films do not do as it does... I certainly wouldn't want to be in the room when a consumer with a physics background says, "What the puck. you think I'm stupid or something".

Had it happen a few years ago when I went to estimate a job for 4 mil... homeowner had another in earlier and still had a sample left... commenced to do the stab the screwdriver in the film test and see if it'll tear... both mine and theirs tore as if they were the same film. lol2.gif The look on that man's face was priceless...

I'm not 3M so all I can say is that if it is the film that takes a different slant on it's marketing approach. I would suggest taking some extra physics courses to deal with some interesting observations that are going to pop up... twocents.gif

Well whoop de forking do

Dave I do respect your knowledge of the window film industry and your obvious experience from both sides of the fence meaning our side and the corporate side. I also can appreciate your bias when it comes to the products made the company you work for.

But I have to say the transperancy of your posts when it comes to bashing the other brands out there and hiding behind some play of words is really becoming a bore.

Really Pmuz...

No bashing of a product has taken place... bashing a 'claim' isn't bashing a product.

Great position exerpted in quote:

Inevitably, claims will be made in the marketplace by manufacturers, industry members and retailers about the virtues of their products that allegedly distinguish them from competing products. Consumers are rarely in a position to rationally evaluate the legitimacy of such claims. What “sounds good” may have the desired “sales impact,” but often “sounds” have no substance and ought not to be persuasive, simply because they are false or misleading. “Good sounding” music played during a car commercial does not prove that that vehicle performs better than some other whose musical accompaniment is less “impressive.”

The marketplace will be better informed about window films and better skilled at ferreting out false, confusing, and misleading claims designed to persuade by means other than transparent language, relevant scientific evidence, and rational argument. The intent is not criticism or disparagement of any company or its products, but only as an assessment of certain claims and the evidentiary basis for them. The standards for evaluating product performance are an industry-wide issue and responsibility, a matter of scientific and public standards, not a matter of individual preference or corporate marketing strategy.


B-ding... I'll let someone who focuses far too much on the answer to your question, answer your question.
