Description
Description
Aurora85 transmits 85% of visible light, which puts it close to bare glass.
Key attributes:
- Visible light transmission (VLT): 85 ± 2%
- Total solar energy rejected (TSER): 35 ± 2%
- Infrared rejection (IRR): 50%
- Ultraviolet rejection (UVR): over 99%
- Internal visible light reflectance: 12%
- 2 mil multi-layer composite, 8-year warranty
This is the clarity end of the range. Where other films start by taking light away, Aurora85 leaves the windshield essentially open and works on ultraviolet and total solar load instead, rejecting more than 99% of UV and 35% of total solar energy through a multi layer composite structure.
The film carries a cool blue technical cast in reflected light that shifts noticeably when the glass is wet. That optical signature, combined with the very high transmission, makes it the natural specification for electric vehicles with large glazed areas and for markets where windshield tint limits are strict.
Supplied on 1.52 m by 15 m rolls at 2 mil applied thickness. Position Aurora85 on clarity and UV protection rather than on maximum heat rejection. Customers whose priority is infrared performance belong on Helios75Pro.

How TeckWrap compares
Not all film is the same
Cheap film won't last a season. Legacy brands charge a brand premium. TeckWrap sits in the middle: professional-grade film at an honest price.
The cheap way
Budget Film
Saves money up front, then bubbles, fades and cracks within a season.
How it blocks heat
✕Dye absorbs light. The glass heats up and radiates inward.
Solar energy rejected
✕Around 35 to 45 percent, even on the darkest shade.
Infrared rejection
✕Low, and it falls further as the dye breaks down.
Signal interference
✕Metallized film blocks GPS, keyless entry, and radio reception.
Color stability
✕Turns purple, fades, and bubbles as the adhesive fails.
Warranty
✕A shop warranty that ends when the shop closes.
The smart way
Order a Sample
TeckWrap Film
Professional-grade film at an honest price. Reversible, paint-safe, and color-shifting.
How it blocks heat
Rejects infrared instead of absorbing it, so the glass stays cooler.
Solar energy rejected
Up to 70 percent total solar energy rejected, stated per SKU.
Infrared rejection
Up to 93 percent infrared rejection, published on every product page.
Signal interference
Ceramic lines are non metallic. Phone, GPS and TPMS unaffected.
Color stability
Does not fade to purple. Color change is a covered warranty failure.
Warranty
Eight years, manufacturer backed. Five on the sputtered silver lines.
See the finish in person before you commit.
The legacy way
Legacy Brand Film
Comparable film, but you pay a brand premium.
How it blocks heat
–Ceramic or multilayer. Same method, at the legacy brand price.
Solar energy rejected
–High TSER across the range, with a matching price tag.
Infrared rejection
–High IRR. Check which band it was measured on.
Signal interference
–Ceramic lines are clear of it. Metallized lines are not.
Color stability
–Color stable across the warranty period, at a higher price.
Warranty
–Lifetime on paper. Read what the exclusions actually remove.
Window Film / Aurora ultra clear FAQ
Find it by topic
Choosing & buying
Who is this film for?
Two buyers. Markets where windshield limits are strict and almost nothing else passes, and electric vehicles with panoramic windshields and large glass roofs where a darker film changes the whole cabin. It carries an 8 year warranty at 2 mil.
Should I take this or Helios75Pro?
Decide on infrared. Aurora85 is the clarity and UV film at 50 percent infrared rejection and 35 percent TSER. Helios75Pro gives up 10 points of light transmission and returns 54 percent TSER. If the complaint is heat, they belong on Helios75Pro.
Look & colour
Why does it look blue when the glass is wet?
The multi layer composite carries a cool blue cast in reflected light, and it shifts noticeably on wet glass. That is the construction showing itself, not a fault, and it is the thing customers ask about first.
Installing
The film looks hazy and there are small bubbles. Is it faulty?
Almost never. That is mounting solution still evaporating through the film, and it clears on its own. Give it a few days in warm weather and up to a few weeks in cold. Cure time is 24 hours minimum above 15°C (59°F) before you touch it.
When can I roll the windows down?
Not for at least 24 hours, and longer in cold weather. Dropping a window before the adhesive has set drags the film edge down into the door and peels it. This is the single most common self inflicted failure on a fresh tint job.
Damage & durability
Will it turn purple or bubble in a few years?
Not on these constructions. Purple fade and bubbling are dyed film failures, where the dye breaks down and the adhesive goes with it. Sputtered metal and nano ceramic layers hold color and performance instead of drifting. Warranty periods run 5 to 8 years depending on the series.
Specs & performance
Is 85 percent even a tint?
Barely, and that is the specification. Aurora85 leaves the windshield essentially open at 85 percent visible light transmission and works on ultraviolet and total solar load instead, rejecting over 99 percent of UV and 35 percent of total solar energy through a multi layer composite.
Does darker mean cooler?
No, and this is the most expensive misunderstanding in tinting. Darkness is privacy and glare. Heat rejection is construction. Zenith70 at 75 percent visible light transmission still rejects 88 percent of infrared and 45 percent of total solar energy, while a cheap dark dyed film can reject far less heat than that while making the car harder to see out of. Buy the construction, then choose the shade.
Which number should I actually compare?
TSER, not IR rejection. Infrared rejection measures one slice of the spectrum and is the number films are marketed on because it reads highest. Total Solar Energy Rejected accounts for the whole solar load, which is what you feel. When a film advertises a huge IR number and never prints its TSER, that is the answer.
Why does internal reflectance matter?
Because you drive at night. High internal reflectance turns the inside of the glass into a mirror after dark and throws your own dashboard back at you. The side shades across this range hold internal reflectance to about 5 to 6 percent, which is low for the category and is a comfort figure nobody advertises.
Legal & warranty
See all FAQsIs my tint legal?
Check the net figure, not the film figure. Your glass already blocks light before any film goes on, so a 35 percent film on factory glass lands well below 35 percent measured. That is how people pass at the shop and fail at the roadside. Front, rear and windshield limits differ by state and country, so confirm locally before ordering.
