Any thoughts or alternatives?
100 microns is enough to protect from small stone chips ?

I like using them especially on my McLarens but don't know the brand exactly

I use Clearplex on my GT3. I've had it on for 2 1/2 years now. I track my car and only have a few scratches from debris. The glass is fine.

Cheers

Thanks. Is it perfectly cut to the windscreen size or some edges are left? What about sun glazing or diving in rain/ bad visibility?

Mine was custom cut to fit, not a kit. Visibility has not been a problem and you can't tell it's there. You need to keep it clean so as not to have any debris caught in the wipers.

Having used Clearplex on multiple cars I can tell you that even in the best of installer's hands, it is difficult to get a 'perfect' install. Acceptable and nearly imperceptible yes, but there always are minor imperfections. Luckily they are generally not too noticeable when driving. I consider it to be a 1-2 year replaceable item on a street vehicle, as it will gather small defects from debris over time, especially from a road course where it is very valuable btw.

My next car I'm going to use this new product:

Advertised in Panorama and worth looking into imho.
