Motorcycle Forum / General / Sportbikes / May 2007Tinted or Mirrored Visor - NOOB
This may sounds like a really basic and stupid question but can someone tell me what the difference is between a tinted and a mirrored visor? Thanks On May 25, 7:28 pm, trevrobwh...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: > This may sounds like a really basic and stupid question but can > someone tell me what the difference is between a tinted and a mirrored > visor? A tint being like a sunglass dark coating and a mirror being a mirror that blinds uncoming traffic with the reflection of your bling. > On May 25, 7:28 pm, trevrobwh...@yahoo.co.uk wrote: >> This may sounds like a really basic and stupid question but can [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > A tint being like a sunglass dark coating and a mirror being a mirror > that blinds uncoming traffic with the reflection of your bling. A proper mirrored visor is mirrored on the inside, so you can watch yourself without having to look at a mirrored building. BTW, you will always look cool with a mirrored visor.

Both reduce the light level however in tinted the plastic has an opaque additive whereas the mirrored visor achieves the light reduction with a thin layer of metal which is sputtered in a vacuum onto the exterior. Different metals and thicknesses achieve different reflection colours > This may sounds like a really basic and stupid question but can > someone tell me what the difference is between a tinted and a mirrored > visor? > > Thanks > This may sounds like a really basic and stupid question but can > someone tell me what the difference is between a tinted and a mirrored > visor? > > Thanks I wouldn't want a dark shield either way. If it's that sunny and hot, I'd rather pop the shield up for some fresh air and wear sunglasses. And a dark shield isn't what you want in the dark. |
