Solar Gard PureVue 60 Window Film — High-Clarity Ceramic Solar Protection
Solar Gard PureVue 60 is a high-clarity ceramic window film transmitting 60% of visible light. It provides effective infrared heat rejection and UV protection with minimal change to the glass's appearance — ideal when you need solar performance without a visible tint.
Key Benefits
- High visible-light transmission — at 60% VLT, the film is nearly invisible on the glass while still blocking a significant portion of solar heat.
- Ceramic infrared rejection — selectively targets heat-carrying infrared wavelengths, keeping interiors cooler.
- Zero signal disruption — the non-metallic construction preserves full wireless, cellular and GPS performance.
- UV filtering — blocks up to 99% of UV radiation.
- Neutral aesthetics — low interior and exterior reflectance maintain the original look of the glass.
Ideal Applications
- Residential homes in HOA-regulated communities where dark or reflective films are prohibited
- Museums, galleries and libraries requiring UV control with maximum light
- Office towers with floor-to-ceiling glass that occupants want to keep bright
- Retail storefronts needing merchandise protection without dimming the display
Buyer Guidance
PureVue 60 is the choice when appearance matters as much as performance. It is virtually undetectable on most glass types, so it works well in design-sensitive environments. If you need stronger tint and privacy, step down to PureVue 50 or 35. Supplied as uncut rolls by The Window Place USA; professional installation is recommended.
Available Sizes
Available in 36″, 48″ and 60″ widths, each in 50-foot and 100-foot roll lengths.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can you see PureVue 60 on the glass?
It is very subtle. Most observers will not notice the film once it is installed, especially on tinted or low-e glass.
2. Does it still reject heat at 60% VLT?
Yes. Ceramic technology targets infrared wavelengths independently of visible light, so meaningful heat rejection is achieved even at high VLT levels.
3. Is PureVue 60 approved for dual-pane and tempered glass?
High-VLT ceramic films generally pose the lowest thermal-stress risk. Confirm compatibility with your glass manufacturer to be safe.
4. Does The Window Place USA ship nationwide?
Yes. We supply Solar Gard film across the United States. We do not provide installation — engage a qualified local installer.
5. Which PureVue VLT should I choose?
For maximum clarity and minimal tint, choose PureVue 70. For a balance of tint and performance, PureVue 50. PureVue 60 sits between them — noticeable heat rejection with almost no visual change to the glass.
