Will puttiing polarizing film on my mortorcycle visor so when I raise it up it will act as a sun visor but will be transparent when pulled down?

I would expect that you would notice a reduction in glare, if you tune the orientation of the filter sheet. Be aware that there is an overall reduction of light through the sheet, even when it is not affecting the glare.

Hm, I don't understand what you have in mind - covering the top half of your helmet with polarizing film, so that there's some shade for your eyes depending on where the visor is positioned? That may work. But you won't get any kind of lighter/darker depending on the rotation - you would need some kind of pair of sheets of film where one rotates and the other doesn't. Also - the film is pretty stiff and non stretchy. Would it be feasible to take paper and get that pressed flatly against your visor? If not, then the polarizing film won't take that shape either.

I would not suggest it, the weight would render your visor unusable. The visor would not stay in the up position and aside from the inconvenience I could also foresee a safety concern.

To be honest, I did not like the sun visor mount. Without adding shims, the fit is loose and it moves around a bit. But it is used with the sun visor in the up position. I cut off the U that mounts on the visor and glued on a piece so I could mount it on the dashboard with an old cell phone button mount. Much more secure now. I really do like the way the arms hold the cell phone though. It is secure and easy to put on and take off. For the price it is a great deal

I tried it on my sun visors which are a similar material to carpet, but not exactly. While the rustolium is supposed to work, i found that the duplicolor fabric and vinyl worked much better on the visors because it was a bit thinner and absorbed better in the fabric. With the duplicolor The fabric is still more or less the same texture afterward. The rustoleum however gooped up on the fabric because it was thicker and did not penetrate it and looked bad and was not the same texture but now a hard feeling with globs here and there. I ended up deciding on a lighter color grey so went to junk yard to get another set of sun visors and I painted them only with the duplicolor. They cam out the best. So I suggest the duplicolor for all cloth fabrics and rugs and the rustoleum for vinyl and plastic only.

I've never needed a visor. If it's really bright, it's very easy to just use the look through viewfinder. The camera can detect when you are looking through that and automatically shuts off the LCD viewfinder. When you pull away from the look through viewfinder the LCD display comes back on. Also, the LCD can swing out and tilt, so that can help in direct sun, too.

NO depending where you mount it you can use you sun visor to block it at night or even in the day time

Hi Charles, This one is fixed at an angle that blocks the broadest amount of light. The reason being is with a gopro you constantly change directions with the camera so it would be tedious to align the polarizer everytime you change angles in relation to the sun. So we made it easy and fixed it horizontally for you. If you need one that rotates our Frame2.0 polarizer will do that. -PolarPro

Visor generally works great, but I agree that it doesn't totally shield intense sunlight you get in the mornings and late afternoons when you face it. I'm not blinded by it, but I'm aware of it.

Its not too dark.... If your good with tint go for it but me ... I wouldnt it would be to hard for me .. Its has a sticky backing which would be easy to stick to the visor but shaping it and making sure no bubles are trapped ... I wouldnt

I personally have had no problems with the visor obstructing my vision. I really only use the visor when I am riding into direct sunlight. I love this helmet!

Hi, I have this helmet and i love it. I've never felt the visor obstruct my view. I don't see how it could if you are looking forward. It doesn't fall on your face.

I have used this film but I applied it on top of 5% tint that was already installed.Honestly, I couldn't tell you if it'll look purple or not viewing it from inside the car but I highly doubt it. It's a dark film and the most it'll look like is a very dark blue but probably not. I would buy one box first to see how it turns out to your liking. Other than that, it's a great tint.

It is vinyl & would be quite uncomfortable for long wear periods. A piece of velcro (Fuzzy side out) would be what I would do if I had to wear it for say 30 minutes or longer.That being said I have used this extensively & compared it to 3 other brands of closeup visors that my flying buddies use for closely inspecting indoor model aircraft details.As much as I initially hated this (due to small field of view) I would say that it is as good as any magnifying visor on Amazon.

Looking at how other folks answered this question, I installed it differently as I am not one to even use the mirror. I would take their advice and install it on the outside surface so the mirror is still available. That being said, I am not a mirror user, so it is not an issue with me. Plus the fact that I live in Michigan, not Florida, so I will probably take the visor off in winter when we don't have much sun. Would I buy it again or recommend it? Yes, I love it! It functions very well and is a good design. Is it a bit pricey? Yes, but you get what you pay for.

The light is made by another company and does not include any lenses. Your visor should already have a set of lenses.

The clear film UV protection I bought must be applied inside as it wouldn't adhere in weather over time. ( As to the first question, to be honest I haven't been able to find anyone to install it yet--- we have a three story high indoor skylight and I'm still hoping the film will do the job to keep art from fading. )
