    I've never really thought much about veil, and the alps don't seem to need help, but I would still think it has some value when used with jammers. I never thought for a minute it would stand alone.

    But there is no real way to test that, other than making a ton of runs with the same car and getting an average punch through distance with and without veil.

    I would agree a multi layered approach is sound thinking. Active and passive defense makes sense....however your passive has to actually work at real world distances we drivers face when being shot with laser. A quarter mile isn't realistic to expect any type of protection. I would further humbly submit just basic "reflection management" is just as effective. Angle your license plate down a bit. I use headlight armor on my headlights/fog lights and it significantly reduces reflection back.....just basic reflection management to cut down on my "footprint"......other than that it is beginning to appear a waste of money to utilize paint on laser "absorption". No realistic/realized gains in reducing your signature that I can see now after 2 test (Mirage/Vortex our resident non convicted felons)...
    Oh yeah...I also use a active jammer. LI.....jams all the guns around here. Mirage is the only SOB in Texas with a DragonEye
