Magneshade 94%

Bob would like to kick me, but I'm the penny-pincher in our family. I got the 90% instead of the 94% Magneshade, and we find that for a couple hours on full-sun days, we still have to put down the solid screen on the windshield. I didn't think there was that much diff between 90 and 94, so I saved $100. We tend to spend longer stays in cooler areas, but we discovered that the sun blazes pretty hot everywhere on sunny days.
We love the privacy factor however. But he's determined we should have gone 90.
I'm wondering if they just put a heavier coating for 94, not a tighter weave.
I'm so in the doghouse.

The 94% or 99% are heavier weaves with less open area. The "UV" protection is not a coating on the fabric it is physically blocking the UV rays from passing through to the glass and on into the coach.
