Photoblocker is a spray that causes the plate to reflect overwhelmingly so
that it is unreadable by flash photo,but not visible with ordinary
eyesight.
It does not affect radar in any way.
Some states have laws making altering a plate *in any way* to be a
violation.Florida is one of them.

A photoflash reflects so much light the dynamic range of the camera is
exceeded,and the digits are unreadable.
Probably some ultrafine mica in a clear lacquer to cause high reflectivity.

The high reflectivity part is fact.

Scott, you are WAY too jaded.

Reading between the lines in that original post - all that raison d'etre
stuff and crows flying and the emergence of self-driving confidence, I
suspect that the mere act of everyone spraying this on their license plates
is bound to bring harmony to ENTIRE world.

I can just imagine it: LLBs, 85th percentile advocates. law enforcement
officers, tailgaters, government revenue generators, SUV drivers and sports
car drivers smiling and tipping their hats to each other as they go by,
maybe even pulling over and having tea together on little white-cloth tables
right there on the roadside. Heck, I think it might even end global
terrorism

Are you so blind that you can't see it? Don't you think all of that is worth
the mere $19.95 or whatever it is and the time it takes simply to spray it
on your plates. I do. I surely do.

1. Photoblocker spray works
2. It works for cameras that use flash
3. If it only works for one time that i was going to get a ticket and
saved me $300 or more it had paid back for how much I have bought it
for.
4. Do not be cheap and cry for the product that is actually doing you a
favor
5. .............
6. .............

Or, you could just do what I do: don't run red lights. That will save you
the cost of this spray and the cost of a ticket.

Here is my opinion, from the website highwayrobbery.net.


FAQ # 11: What about license plate covers, windshield sprays, or even
wearing a mask, so the camera can't get a clear photo of your plates or
your face?

Answer: Aside from the controversy as to whether covers or sprays can
actually blur the photos as claimed by their marketers, there is the
problem that the average person who gets a red light camera ticket is
not a speeder or aggressive driver, but is older, drives at moderate
speeds and has a clean driving record, so doesn't think that they would
ever get a red light camera ticket. Thus, it's not likely that they
would purchase and install protective measures "just in case."
If you decide to wear a mask, be sure it doesn't cover your eyes or
restrict your peripheral vision.

And, if you would like to find out about the sprays, visit the website
of Phantomplate, Inc., the manufacturer of PhotoBlocker(tm) spray.

[Yes, even I have a spam ad for Photoblocker.]

And by the way, you can recognize me when I drive by, by my Tinkerbell mask.

The spray is not visible so it is still legal.

The police would not be able to know that the license plate has been
tampered. Photoblocker spray is a clear spray and illegible to the
naked eyes, no one will know that you have it on. Look at their
website:

I wouldn't _ever_ buy this stuff, if for no more reason than I wouldn't
ever patronize spammers.
