The product’s description reveals it makes use of “reinforced five-layer material”.
This consists of one layer of aluminium foil on polyethylene, one layer of Oxford fabric, one layer waterproof, one layer of flame retardant cotton, and one layer of polyester taffeta.
The underside is said to be “very soft and gentle” due to the use of textile components.
This reliably protects the windscreen and the paint of the vehicle from scratches and damage, the seller says.
