Michael:

Normal glass effectively blocks the sun's UV rays. So, this would not be a big selling point. On the other end of the spectrum, if SPD glass was effective in blocking infrared radiation, then there is the added advantage of blocking heat.

I think I will have myself coated with SPD film.

That way, I will be assured of not getting skin cancer! :)

Better yet, with a couple AA batteries hooked up to me, I can become a one-man mobile tanning salon! :)

You know--I started to write this purely in jest. But--what if you COULD spray on an SPD film, attach a lead to a battery, and get either a killer tan or an effective SPD 1000 sunblock or anything in between?
