What Clear View Plus is for
Clear View Plus is often considered for sunny rooms where people want to keep the view: kitchens with large sliders, living rooms, and office glass where daylight matters. The light shade keeps most visible light; the darker shades add glare control.
The family's infrared rejection is high across the range, but infrared rejection is only one band. Use the TSER column to compare total solar heat rejected.
Appearance and tradeoffs
- Shade names are not measured light values: Clear View Plus 70 is listed at 72% VLT on the master sheet.
- Clear View Plus 70 can take longer to dry than many films. XPEL's April 2026 bulletin covers extended dry times and edge sealing for coastal installs.
- Darker shades reduce glare more but give up more daylight.

The Clear View Plus 70 technical bulletin (Version 2.0) addresses extended drying and edge sealing for that product, including edge sealing for installs within 25 miles of the coast. It does not change the master optical values, and drying time still depends on the product, the glass and the conditions.
Clear View Plus questions
How long does Clear View Plus 70 take to dry?
Longer than many films, and it varies with temperature, sun exposure, shading and humidity. XPEL's bulletin explains why. We give product-specific care and follow-up guidance instead of a universal cure time.
Is IR rejection the same as heat rejection?
No. IR rejection measures one infrared band. Total solar energy rejected (TSER) is the broader number for comparing how much solar heat is kept out.
Does Palmdale need edge sealing for Clear View Plus 70?
XPEL's coastal edge-sealing requirement applies within 25 miles of the ocean. Your installer will confirm the product-specific requirements for your address in the proposal.
