REFLECTOR:Tinted Windows

[jack davis]

Some auto stores sell a spray on tinting.  I don't know if it works on
plexiglas.  On an auto glass window, it seems to hold up very well.  One
important point when using it, is to be sure the window is completely clean
(use a razor blade to be sure all particles are off the surface).  If you
don't, the spray tint will "bunch up" and will not give you the quality you
are looking for.
