Maximum Light Transmission: The clear tint is specifically designed for night racing or very low-light conditions, ensuring the brightest possible view of the track.
Choosing the Right Tint
Selecting a shield is a functional decision based on your racing environment. Use the guide below to ensure the Clear SD1 Shield is the correct choice for your needs:
-
Clear: The professional standard for night, indoor, or low-light racing.
-
Amber/Yellow: Ideally suited for overcast weather or dawn/dusk to enhance track contrast.
-
Tinted/Mirrored: Best for daytime driving to eliminate glare and reduce eye fatigue.
-
Iridium: Provides the highest level of protection from intense sunlight and harsh glare.
Compatibility Note

Vudo Exclusion: This shield is not intended for use with the Vudo helmet, as tear-off post locations and mounting hardware differ.
Maintenance & Installation
To maintain the integrity of the antifog and anti-scratch coatings, clean the shield using only mild soap and water with a soft microfiber cloth. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners, which can damage the specialized surface treatments. For peak safety and visibility, replace your shield immediately if it sustains deep scratches or significant impact.
