- Attach it on one side and unroll it, use a stick, or bring along a step stool
- No it won't (it never has for me). You never touch the windshield.
- Why would it scratch the windshield? It's never scratched mine.
- Unless there's a huge difference in the material temperature after being in the direct sunlight for 10 hours in 95 degrees and 90% humidity and 110 degrees and 0% humidity - nope.

 

Just what I want to do every time I park my truck. Drag out a stick or a step stool.
OK. Being careful will avoid this I guess. But it might be tough when I have to reach so far across the windshield. LOL. Because dust and loose dirt get on the windshield. Then you're putting something on top of that. This could scratch the windshield. That's why people shouldn't use car covers outside.
Humidity doesn't play a role in this case. 110 on a windshield is much hotter than 95.

 

Okay - I guess they're not the best choice for short people (or tall people with 8" lifts) living in Arizona that have really sensitive hands (to heat).

They work great for tall people (I'm 6'-2") living in the southern Piedmont of NC that don't have sensitive hands.

They also work great for mothers that are 5'-8" living in the southern Piedmont of NC that don't have sensitive hands and drive minivans.

 

Humor appreciated.

I am short, 5'7". Have to roll with what God gave me.

Can you fry an egg on the windshield of your truck in the summer in Piedmont? I can in Phoenix. If my hands are sensitive, that's OK. Ladies love soft hands.

That is why there are different products for different people. All is good.

 

Glad you liked it - I was giggling as I wrote it.

Yes - you can easily fry an egg. With the high humidity, the 95 degrees feels like 105-108 because there's no evaporation or heat transfer away from the windshield. Plus the water vapor acts like a magnifying glass. That's one of the reasons I picked it - it keeps the windshield cooler (and God knows there's a lot of windshield to keep cool), not just the interior.

I have 'hard' hands, but I can lick my eyebrows.

 

And I bet it would be a real hoot trying to remove that brilliantbob sunshade with the windshield wipers frozen to it when you get freezing rain, sleet, etc.

 

They cover the wipers - so it's not an issue.

The material is super slick - ice and snow slough off (we just had 4" of snow and freezing rain).

 

Whatever, but just for info, here is a link to one of their photos.

 

And here's another one:



And more information:

WeatherBuster – Silver
With its space-age polyester fabric, the silver WeatherBuster has been laminated with a silver aluminum Mylar film developed for the space program and widely used as a thermal barrier in consumer, industrial and aerospace applications where insulation and heat reflection are critical.
Even if you install your WeatherBuster over a wet windshield and the temperature drops to freezing, the fabric will not stick or crack.

 

This is like dueling banjos!!
