Has anyone used that spray that hides your plate from license plate detectors(those stoplights with a camera attached)? Concept is, the camera tries to take ur license plate pic, but it gets a picture that is overexposed and blurry, due to the spray you spray on. I am thinking about doing this and wanted to see any good brands/stories. I am not some sort of renegade BTW. Story is, there is a light down the street that appears 20 feet after a 45 degree curve that changes super quick. There is a HUGE intersection (like 20 feet long) that you have to cross and it has a camera that got me once already. Let me hear yalls ideas!

Here is a site I found on it..^

 

Never used them myself and I don't consider the mythbusters an expert source for the most part but I remember seeing this episode and they did the experiments the right way so I think it should probably answer your question.

Hope that will help you.

 

Beat me to it!

 

yhea myth busters proved it a failure. and personally ur pretty gullible if u think a magic spray is going to hide ur plate

 

save your money. if you really want to make sure you dont get tickts by those cameras take you plates off haha

 

Even if the mythbutsters proved it true I'm not sure they would tell everyone that they found something that could help you break the law.

 

Thanks everyone. BTW, what the heck is a 'magic spray'? I will leave it at that. I will move on to other mods..

 

throw a few nice coats of auto clear on your plates. nice and shiny same idea..... just their spray is 20 and wal mart or auto zone is 5

 

Foil works better

 

or not runnin lights works to. duuhhhh

 

This crap doesn't work like how it was mentioned earlier.

If you want to "break the law" just buy a "Hide-A-Way Plate"

 

Any effect it may have had are negated by the newer double flash cameras.

The only thing that works is a plate flipper, but you'll be in deep **** if you get caught using one of those.

 

 

LOL^ I get your point man. The light is in a tricky location. Just trying to get an edge...oh well.

 

Nah, thats just jokes! I checked out one of those news videos on the spray and it seems like in theory it'd work IF the sun was hitting your car head on. If your plate was in a shadow somehow or it was the wrong time of day, you're screwed

 

We have those cameras popping up everywhere here in Chi-Town.
I use the spray, never ran a light(that I know of) but when I take a picture of my car with the flash on, the plate is overexposed.
My son got a ticket for making a right-turn-on-red, but stopped for a micro-second short of the required time determined by the camera, cost him $100.00. Now I just wait...
