everyone i have asked said not to use it, interfere with radio, radar/laser detection(vr website)
and its not as good as ...(huper optiks ceramic?) in deflecting heat
and if you ask around.... the best tint is not going to be metalic

I heard the titanium stuff was affecting cars radios that had the antenna integrated into the car/glass.

I even had a tv in my car with the antennas on the inside of the rear window with metallic tints and never ever had a problem with reception..
So you can blow that theory out of the window! Its proof from personal experiance.

Unless you have a V1 or are tinting the windshield(illegal mostly everywhere) I would not care if the tine is metallic
Regardless, if your tint is metallic or ceramic, your car electronics are eletrically grounded. The sole pupose of ceramic tint is for heat diffusion. Don't buy anything (comercial) made of titanium. Titanium is the buzz word of the day.
The uses for Ti are its strength to weight ratio and low corrosion. And yes Titanium corrodes. Ceramic on the other hand has no corrosion value, but has less flex. It has great heat dispursion, and high rigidity. All of this is great for aircraft manufacturing, and of little importance to window tint.
In addition, any tint applied to a glass surface will disperse and defract a light source. What this means is that when a laser is fired at your car, the tinted surfaces will defract the beam, thereby slowing the reaction time of your detector.
So, mount your R/L detector below your tinted windshield visor.
P.S. Go with a bronze tint. Color also plays a factor.
here is some pics of the metallic tints i use, as you can see it has a nice reflection and you cant see in at all...really keeps the car cooler in summer.
