So having thougts of speeding / running a camera and wanting to get away with it?

Photoblocker is brillant, it works well. To ensure absolute non identification spray a liberal dose of Stefan's Style Hold lacquer over the top of the photoblocker. The complex polymer chain of the clear hair spray when combined with the photoblocker causes it to white out when exposed to a flash. THis white out occurs when the colour temperature of the light is over 5500 degrees kelvin.
As any good camera buff will tell you, flash temperature ranges between 7000-12000 degrees kelvin, well above the "white out" minimum.

Most definately go out and purchase it, spray it on and rest assured you will be okay from the long arm of the law

I ensure that I am sitting on the speed limit past the cameras, and do not run orange / red.

Yes I have been having a lend, and taking the mickey.
Unfortunately there are many charlatans selling these so called paints, refelctive strips etc, and unfortunately people will still buy them.

Does Nigerian money scam ring any bells, same outcome. A scumbag takes your hard earned cash and you are left with nothing.

The only sure fire way to "fool" the speed / red camera is not to do the wrong thing....... this is not a lecture, just fact in how to beat them.

I sprayed my car with invisibility paint and I think that I got some on the missus. I can’t find her anywhere. Come to think of it, the milk man doesn’t come by anymore either. used:

I saw 2 Fords at the last All Ford Day in Geelong that had number plate covers on them that when you look at them on an angle you cant make out what the plate is but when your directly behind its clear as day.

Mr Policeman was very interested in those cars when he walked past...............lol

Well well, by those shots they look promising. I maybe eating some humble pie
Thou speed / red light cameras are high end models with superior flash units, and wth the benefit of height (greater angle for reflection) I still beleive it would be near impossible to beat....Think about it. The techies would have thought about reflections in the R&D stages of these cameras.

I guess the only real test is to wait untill you accidently go over speed, get flashed and you do not recieve a tin.......or perhaps a sacrificial speed camera run......Hey that would rreally be taking one for the team.

The best defense against these is a top of the line radar detector. They can now pick up all speed cameras and radars aswell , I dont think the photo blocker would work too good seems dodgy as, although until proven wrong, it might acually .

Shame multinovas are infra-red based...theres still a flash to cast light but the infra-red picks up everything....even shows where your eyes are looking....So you can't beat them, unless you either buy a decent radar detector for $800-$1000.

OR and heres a good one.....don't speed
