Thumbs up Photoblock speed camera paint

Just seen an ad on ebay showing this paint, apparently if sparayed on your number plates it gives a highly reflective shine that causes the gatso to over wxpose therefor making your plate unreadable. Anyone ever tried anything like this out of curiosity obviously...

I found some articles on this before and it was actually tested by a police force, the spray on laquer one (cos i think there's 3 types of products) gave the best results and the police admitted that they couldn't prosecute as the plates were not clear enough, blurry and distorted.

I was tempted but i think it was bout £25 a can

BTW - I'm in s.wales so if you buy one, can i have a spray for a fiver

The stat from a couple of years ago was that only 1 in 5 Gatsos actually has film in at any given time. Unless this has changed dramatically with the advent of digital imaging, you are fairly unlikely to be done if flashed anyway.
