Need Infrared clear coatings

I too need a clear Infrared coating or spray that blocks or reflects 800-900nm I/R light off of the surface of a large plastic window. Sorry but my contract will not allow me to disclose the exact purpose of what I am doing. I will say it is very important to me and the project.

Sincerely,

Ed. note: Sorry, this RFQ is old & outdated, so contact info is no longer available. However, if you feel that something technical should be said in reply, please post it; no public commercial suggestions please ( huh? why?)

Hello, John. Your question is just fine! We don't want people to spill State secrets to the world :-)

When we ask people to post their "real world situation" we want to know whether they need to have a coating applied, apply a coating themselves, formulate a coating, or answer a school homework question. We want sufficient details to be able to help them. Finally, we want enough info posted that the problem is interesting to the readers, and implies a sense of sharing and camaraderie, rather than a sense of wholesale technology transfer to the most selfish :-)

Hopefully one of our supporting advertisers will offer you a product in private, or a reader will steer you in the right direction.
