Diamond Fusion Windshield Protection Film on Spyder!
Long story short, we have tested a windshield protection film for a manufacturer from 5 years ago and there was just not enough durability for us at Premier to back it. Fast forward to 2010, we have been testing this new product by Prestige Films Technology who have developed a clear windshield protection film in late 2009. We have tested and used this product extensively and now are confident in its protective capabilities, but also its durability and clarity. One of our major concerns would be wiper scratches. To date, we have put over 15k miles onto our daily drivers and we do not see this as an issue. Below are some specs to the product:
Manufacturer: Prestige Films Technology
Product: Diamond Fusion Windshield Protection Film
Warranty: 2 year 20,000 miles from bubbling, fading, peeling, purpling, and cracking
Thickness: 4.2 mils
UV Rejection: 99.5%
VLT (visible light transmission) - 80% (factory glass is typically 82%-85%)
Heat Rejection: 10% TSER (total solar energy rejection - minimal heat rejection, but better than none)
**does not interfere with radar, am / fm, and other wireless signals
After extensive testing, we are confident in placing this product onto our customers vehicles. For those outside of our coverage area (norcal and socal), please direct your inquiries to Prestige for local installers - sales@prestige-films.com

They key is to avoid having sand blasting and rock chipping occur on the glass. The film will show its wear especially from larger rock hits.

Just to answer a few FAQs:
Q: How do you clean it?
A: There is a special cleaner and sealer for it
Q: How long will it take before the water bubbles evaporate
A: 3-4 days
Q: Will my wipers scratch the film
A: Diamond Fusion has an extremely durable hardcoat that is scratch resistant
Q: Does it affect visibility
A: Diamond Fusion is a clear film with a VLT (visible light transmission) rating at 85%. Factory glass is rated at somewhere between 80%-85% depending on manufacturer
*this windshield protection film also reduces glare for improved nighttime visibility

Darn I wish I knew about this product before I got hit by a rock....obviously it is best suited on new glass, what about applying it on very slight sand blasted or repaired rock chipped glass?

Here are some close ups of it from the inside. It is an optically clear product. We believe Prestige did a great job in creating a very good product that will protect our client vehicle windshields' over time.

Not a problem installing it onto older glasses...that's what we did to our company vehicles with pits and chips. You will still see them though.
