Ack!

The sunlight turned the tint mostly clear!!?!?


Seems like the sunlight somehow "burned away" the silver on much of the space blanket, leaving it to be little more than clear plastic stuck on my skylight!

Guess those things really are designed for single use only, and NOT as solar tinting!

Oh well, now we know!
