It's not a coating, it's in the glass itself and not something you can scratch or wash off. The S and X are have been like this for years, both of my S cars use the "red" dielectric mirror on the rear hatch and a different heat mechanism on the top that doesn't change color in water, Tesla is probably using the same non-colorchange methods they use in the other cars for newer Model 3s.
The are switching up the way the technology is implemented because there was a problem with people getting this entire rear glass tinted and it causing the glass to crack sometimes. It was overheating the glass and not allowing for proper flex.
They re-engineered the process so that they could be tinted without breaking.
It's an improvement - not a step backwards.
Yes the rear glass has it.They all do... in the front. Do you have it on the back all the way down to the trunk?
Question now is, why didn't they do the same to the top glass?
Because if it’s not broken don’t touch it. They may introduce more issues to cracking top glass.
The middle is like 1/3 of the size, much less likely to suffer crackingThat doesn't make sense. If this "new" colorless method prevents cracking in the rear glass, how would the front glass not benefit from using the same treatment?
I have a July build performance with IR the whole way:
replacing? Wow, that must be acknowledgment from Tesla that the non orange glass is missing the IR. Please keep us posted here...many of us will need this addressed as well.View attachment 330031 View attachment 330030 I have a 8/18 build and missing the IR on the rear section of the glass too , sevice center says they will relace it tomorrow?

Are they replacing it for the sole purpose that you mentioned it didn’t have the UV coating? These windshields likely come from the supplier treated with UV and not likely that they are checked at the factory and likely not noticed at delivery centers when they’re washed.View attachment 330031 View attachment 330030 I have a 8/18 build and missing the IR on the rear section of the glass too , sevice center says they will relace it tomorrow?
