A company called Neverfrost wants to end windshield frosting and help drivers save fuel by keeping their car’s interior cooler with a newly developed window film for your windshield. They also want to increase your windshield’s ability to handle the stray rocks that may come its way.
What Neverfrost is claiming its film can do:
1. Reduce frost forming on the windshield by about 95 percent. It will still form on really cold nights; but that frost should be considerably lighter than it otherwise might be. It’ll also make snow considerably easier to scrape off, as it won’t be able to stick.
2. Increase your windshield’s resistance to rocks by up to 6x. This is possible because the material is on the exterior of the glass (unlike most tints, which go on the inside), and is a bit softer than the glass itself. When a rock hits the film, the force is spread across a wider area.
3. Reject 90 percent of infrared heat from the sun, which is about 40 percent of the total solar energy that’ll enter and heat up your car. That means less A/C required to keep things cool, and thus less fuel burned.
Neverfrost claims that it’s product does this with minimal impacts on optics; it’ll allow 88 percent of visible light through your windshield, which is only about 2 percent less than what most bare glass windshields allow and should be within legal limits in the U.S.
