i just found out about this on the news. supposedly, if you spray your plate with this stuff it will block it out when a picture of it has been taken. which makes the shots taken by cameras while running red lights useless. anyone else here of this?

a cop i once new, said that there was a spray that could be bought from any hardware which does that, but he wouldn't tell me what it was... so i'd say that spray would work thumbsup

strange that they advertise it like that... but these days they can sell it, it's only illegal once it gets put on a road registered vehicle

just use a hair jell spray... it's the same thing.

or wax ur lisence plate couple of times... it works that way too.

car polish compound works also...

well basically, anything that makes ur car shine will do the trick

there's many ways that you can do to make the lisence plate invisible to the cameras with flash light without spending extra money. (hence, using what you already have in ur house.)

just a heads up for ppl dont want to spend extra money. thumbsup

Do you guys live in areas where lots of photo of plates happens?

I don't notice it too much here, I know it happens if you run a toll, or at this particular railroad crossing, if you cross tracks BEFORE the gates are completly up, you will get a ticket. I have actually seen the camera's flashes going off every single time the gates go up.

Other than that, I never really noticed cameras

Why do people need this?

To avoid redlight cameras? If you run a red light, you are an absolute moron and deserve to die.

Photo radar? That I can understand. But, I've never seen that in the US before. spineyes

I know what you mean. I live in the south suburbs (Frankfort, near Orland Park). Adding camera lights around here would put our PD out of business. Cops have nothing better to do around here but stop people any chance they get, unless they need a doughnut, in which case they would flip on the sirens and rush over to Dunkin' Doughnuts.

go to the camara store and ask them for a spray that will "over expose" items, its the same concept, then try it your self, use ur digital and take a picture with and without flash...

You think this would work on the EZ-pass cameras? then you could just drive through EZ-pass and if they cant get your plate they cant send you a ticket...lol just an idea.

Never heard of it. Sound interesting though.
I know of retractable license plates for bikes though.

Tempe police uses photo radar vans alot, especially around ASU. other than that, it is pretty rare.

As for the spray, I also saw a news report about it, but the guy said you would need to reapply after every car wash.

i know they work,but im still nervous about sparying that shit and running a red to test it, i cant afford anymore tickets. The red light camera's are just fines right? i dont think they can assign points

chrome license plate frames do the same thing. I beat this one camera a shit laod of times. When i drive my other car without the chrome frame..i get the ticket in the mail the next day. BUTT with the celica... i never get caught. Tihs is because the flash reflects off the plate adn they cant read the #z. I tried taking several pictures with a normal camera..and the same thing happens.
