are HP tint Reflective?

NR refers to film with no metal in it,

HP refers to film with metal in it.

[Guest vital]

what difference does the metal do? sorry, I'm a total newbie...

[Guest S and S]

yes

[hoosierwindowtek]

The metal rejects more heat and HP films typically have a better warranty and last longer...

High Performance it's all in the name. Just kidin

[Guest vital]

are there any visual differences?

[tintguy]

Slight hp's are normally a little reflective. Nothing like a mirror though

[hoosierwindowtek]

usually, the NR films have a deeper, blacker look than HP which have a shinier sheen to them. NR films actually look better when new to most people. However, they don't look as good after a year or so often times so it's better to go for long term.
