Veil stealth paint is best used with a remote radar detector that can detect laser down in the grille. Why? If laser is painting your grille area, and you do not get alerted by a radar detector (Veil does not have the capability to alert to laser), then you continue at your speed and get a speeding ticket.
Radar Detectors in the windshield can not detect laser down in the grille. This Bel STi-R Remote radar detector can easily detect laser in the grille and alert you! Add the M45 Laser Jammer to beaf up the Veil and the combination package is the best in the world to detect all radar, invisible to all police radar detector detectors, detects all laser and jams all laser guns!
Radar Detectors in the windshield can not detect laser down in the grille. This Escort SR7 can easily detect laser in the grille and alert you!

FIELD EVALUATION REPORT BY SPEED MEASUREMENT LABORATORIES, INC. Product: Veil Report #: SML0603-31 - Full-Text Field Testing Date: 22 June 03 Report Date: 29 June 2003 Product: Veil is a liquid chemical compound designed to reduce the targeting range of police laser guns when applied to target reflective surfaces of vehicles. Police officers are trained to aim laser guns at license plates or headlights to obtain a speed reading. Seldom is targeting done past 1,000 feet [in the USA, however, European and Asian laser use is frequently at 1000-1500 feet, (300-460 meters)] as legal restrictions in the United States have been placed on targeting ranges of laser guns (see: New Jersey Superior Court ruling 1998, Judge Reginald Stanton). Veil is manufactured by Veil Corporation, 1000 Germantown Pike, Suite C-2, Plymouth Meeting, PA 19462 Laser Variables: Police laser guns use a 904 nanometer wavelength of monochromatic infrared light transmitted at specific pulse rates. Laser guns compute speed by knowing distance. Distance is known by the time it takes for one pulse to travel to a specific target and reflect back to the laser's guns computer. The computer remembers the time each pulse leaves the gun and is looking f or this specific pulse to return. The color of a target vehicle is a great determinate in the lasers gun's ability to target. Black absorbs all colors, while white reflects all colors. Targeting a white vehicle is very easy for a laser gun even without headlights or a front license plate. A black vehicle is very difficult to target as the vehicle's color absorbs a considerable amount of the laser gun's emissions. Test Parameters: As with all field evaluations conducted by Speed Measurement Laboratories Inc. (SML) of products, laser guns are only operated by certified police officers. This practice eliminates any claim of impartiality and insures testing credibility. Members of the El Paso Police Department and EI Paso ISD Police Department conducted the test of Veil. The testing was supervised by SML's Dave Adams. Dave is a E.E. wit h twenty-five years experience with laser at White Sands Missile Testing Range. Two different colored vehicles were used, i.e. a light grey Mustang and a black Mitsubishi. Both vehicles were similar in size and shape and the distance of the headlights from the front license plate was the same for both vehicles. Officers operated a Kustom Pro III laser gun from Kustom Signals, Inc. Distance cones were placed at 1/4 mile and 1000 feet. As a baseline for testing the effectiveness of Veil, both test vehicles were targeted by the laser gun at both cones. Both test vehicles had front license plates. A second baseline was established by removing the front license plates and retargeting with the laser gun. In both cases the laser gun had no problem in reporting the exact targeting distance of each vehicle. Veil was then applied to all front reflective surfaces of both vehicles. When applied to the black test vehicle the Veil was effective in reducing the targeting range of the laser gun to 731 feet at the 1/4 mile cone of 1320 feet, almost a 50% reduction in targeting range when aimed at the treated headlight. Due to the light color of the Mustang, Veil did not reduce targeting range when the treated headlight was targeted. A baseline was established on both vehicles removing the front license plate and targeting the vehicle with a license plate cover attached from both distance cones. The laser gun had no problem here. However, when Veil was applied to the license plate cover and no license plate attached, Veil reduced the laser gun's targeting range from 1320 feet to 725.5 feet on the black test vehicle, almost a 50% reduction in the laser gun's targeting ability. Now the license plate was reattached to the front bracket behind the treated license plate cover. In this instance, Veil reduced the laser gun's ability to report a distance reading from the untreated 1,000 foot cone to 767 feet...a targeting reduction of 24% for the black test vehicle. Veil had no effect in target reduction in the light grey test vehicle. Conclusions: Veil should be used in conjunction with good radar / laser detectors. Field studies consistently report radar detectors will report a laser targeting easily at 1,000 feet. However, when the radar detector notifies the driver of a laser beam presence, it is already too late, even at 1000 feet. This notification means the driver just received a ticket, unless they were using Veil Laser Coatings. As the results show, Veil was effective in reducing a laser gun's ability to target the dark colored vehicle up to 50% in the case of aiming at the treated headlight. This reduction in laser targeting range acquisition afforded by Veil would give a driver with a quality radar/laser detector time to adjust speed until the vehicle came into the effective range of the laser gun. Veil works best on darker vehicles due to the coloration's ability to absorb infrared laser emissions. Even active laser jammers have difficulty in cloaking a white vehicle from laser guns. Light colored vehicles, due to their high reflectivity, are easy prey for laser guns. All testing parameters were conducted in conjunction with accepted police training and field application practices of using laser guns for speed enforcement.

Performance Certification: Veil claims to reduce the targeting range of laser guns on dark colored vehicles. Based on SML's field evaluation, this claim was verified. Veil does not claim to jam police laser guns, only to reduce targeting range. Performance Certification is issued to products that perform as advertised. SML does not endorse, nor condone use of products evaluated. Based on advertising claims of Veil, Performance Certification is hereby awarded for period of one year July 2003-2004. VEIL's performance has been independently certified by Speed Measurement Labs to prevent laser speed detection from 2000 feet down to typical 700 feet.
