Windshield screens are the low-tech but far more effective method of keeping a car's interior cooler, typically by at least 20F when it's really hot out. Slightly inconvenient but unlike this paint, a windshield screen will actually make a difference.

Got in my car after work yesterday and it was 102F inside. It was awful
Lucky! I've seen 150 here in Louisiana.
And even higher when I lived in the Mojave desert. Like, if you didn't leave a window cracked there's a real chance your windshield cracks.

Also great for city climate since heated up cars are acting like a heat battery making it significantly slower for a city to cool down once the sun goes away
Ideally there would be no openly parked cars but I guess this is the next best thing
12 degrees? I guess that's cool but still well within egg frying temperature around here.
