Jim, Below is an old post that answers your question. I have this sunshade material (Axius) on the top of my Alon canopy and also keep 3 or 4 pieces handy to use as temporary shades. It comes in several levels of tint. The "limo dark" stuff is what you want. One layer really cuts down the sun. Two layers blocks it almost completely. In the Alon with the canopy closed, this sun shade material makes all the difference in the world. (I've seen this material at auto parts places other than those mentioned below.)

Ask for Axius Auto-Shade or call 1-888-992-9487 for a dealer near you. It is an easy-to-apply window tint film that is removable and reusable. Kinda' like the little pieces that Sporty's sells for an arm and a leg, except this is BIG window film that leaves you with leftovers. This is "static cling" material. No glue involved. It claims to block most all UV. Although no claim is made for IR, it sure cuts down on the heat too! It has served me well and has NOT damaged my plexiglas. If it damages your 'glass, I never wrote this message. <g> BTW... It does take some TALENT to install any film WITHOUT a ton of bubbles. Practice makes perfect. Good luck with the soap, water and squeegee. Cheers, ############## **************Get trade secrets for amazing burgers. Watch "Cooking with Tyler Florence" on AOL Food.
