VistaGray^® and GL-20™

Even when it seems like there's no such thing as a sure thing, you can always count on gray to bring out the personality of your designs - and their drivers. Distinguished, bold, subtle or expressive, our VistaGray glass delivers. Used alone or paired with our GL-20 privacy glass, VistaGray glass delivers a performance and a unique appearance that allows interior colors to look more natural.

VistaGray glass is a shade of neutral gray that complements a broad range of exterior body colors and allows interior colors to remain truer when seen through glass. It offers improved solar control over standard green glass and meets federal requirements for all positions in an automobile. It is in the same color family as the widely available gray privacy glass.

• Improves passenger comfort by reducing transmitted solar energy and resulting heat gain

• Suitable for all automotive glazing positions

• Color complements gray privacy glass and exterior paint

• Reduces air conditioner load to improve fuel efficiency

• Protects interior fabrics from the damaging effects of ultraviolet rays and heat

• Will not distort interior fabric color when viewed from outside the vehicle

Developed specifically for behind-the-driver glazing positions in vans and sport utility vehicles, GL-20 privacy glass is a dark gray tinted, uncoated, heat-absorbing composition, engineered to minimize thermal load and reflectance by controlling the entire solar spectrum. GL-20 glass blocks 85% of the sun's total energy and more than 2/3 of the infrared energy. It also reduces interior reflectance by more than 80% when compared to the previous generation of privacy glass.

• Blocks most of the sun's energy to reduce infrared heat gain for improved passenger comfort, reduced cool-down time and improved fuel efficiency.

• Compatible with existing fabrication equipment and methods

• Reduces interior reflected glare, enhancing driver and passenger vision - even at night

• Compatible with all vehicle paint and trim systems - eliminates transmitted color distortion

• Protects inerior materials from deterioration and discoloration caused by ultraviolet rays and solar heat

• Visually masks interior glass smudges, black ceramic bands and heating grid.
