Default 80% blocking means that you want 20% film. 3M makes a good product, and

their product is warranted nationwide (labor charges also) for life.

Default Huper Optik. the new Drei or the older ceramic. Neither bends well so they will use a Madico on the

rear window. I just cannot say enough about how incredibly effective the Huper film is. I have the Drei on the west windows of my house (as well as ceramic on my car) and virtually no heat comes through. Even on a brutal 110F+ afternoon.
