Need info on solarscreen pps vinyl window material

I am considering using the solarscreen pps vinyl window material for some sections of my dodger.


Does anyone have any input on how much it degrades light transmission at night?


Thanks in advance,
Rit

Capemiker,
I know this thread is old, but did you ever have any luck obtaining information about Solar Screen PPS? I am thinking of using it on some windows, but have been unable to find a vendor that sells retail. Thanks for your help.

No, sorry, never was able to get data.
I stayed with Strataglass and made separate wind/sunscreens out of pet proof fiberglass screen. They inhibit daylight vision, I'd say 30%, but if you move your "line of vision" while looking through them, one can see fairly well. At night they cut vision by at least 60%
The inter change system Has worked out well.
Sea u,
Rit
