    Anti-Glare Film?

    Alright I have a touchscreen from http://www.touchwindow.com/miva/merc...4W-ProE_or_USB . I am trying to find some way of keeping this from having such an awful glare. I have heard of films that I can use, but I am worried about the touch part being affected. Anyone have any ideas on how I can accomplish this?

    I dont think I have found any sort of anti-glare film which will significantly make your screen easier to read in the sun. That being said, I still think they are useful in preventing scratches.

    All the films really do is blurr the reflections. If the reflections are bright enough (sun), you still cant see anything on the screen.

    I wonder how much tint would help? I currently have no tint on the truck. Of course it would be limo. Your take?

    So then I guess the only option is to limo tint. That should hopefully keep the glare off. Any other suggestions or am I just stuck? I mean in sunlight I can't really watch a movie!

    a tint definitely helps, I have 23% in front, so it's not too dark.
    also I added Nushield Dayvue. it helps a little, but not much. Also it doesnt get alot of fingermarks.

    i seriously doubt you need limo tint to prevent the glare. but tint is probably the best solution, i would think.
