Is it okay not to apply film on the car's front windshield?
1 Answers
It is completely acceptable not to apply film. The car's front windshield has a laminated interlayer in the middle, which is designed for explosion-proof purposes. Moreover, modern front windshields generally come with UV protection and heat insulation functions. During the initial design of the front windshield, designers had already considered UV protection, making the application of film on the front windshield largely unnecessary. The benefits of car window film are as follows: 1. Heat insulation and sun protection: The film can effectively block a large amount of heat generated by infrared rays. 2. UV protection: When selecting a front windshield film, the higher the UV resistance index, the better, as it can protect the dashboard components from premature aging due to prolonged sun exposure and also shield the skin of the vehicle occupants from harm. 3. Creating a private space: By choosing the appropriate type, the film usually makes it difficult to see inside the car from the outside while allowing clear visibility from the inside, thus maintaining privacy and safety. 4. Reducing air conditioning consumption: The front windshield is the main heat source radiation area that raises the temperature inside the car. Applying film can improve the driving environment and reduce the energy consumption of the air conditioning, leading to a certain degree of fuel savings. 5. Preventing injuries from glass shattering: The base layer of the film is made of polyester, which has excellent tear and puncture resistance. Combined with the adhesive layer of the film, the strengthened glass can prevent injuries to the driver and passengers in case of accidental glass breakage.
