It has a fine surface that is a little scratchy and looks like a window that has iced water crystals on it. The tinted vinyl is also 20 gauge weight and is good for windows in tents, boat covers and car covers that need to block some of the light coming in. It almost looks like the tinting on a pair of medium dark sunglasses. A good plastic window material. reinforced vinyl has polyester fibers in the middle of two laminated sheets of vinyl like a sandwich. this vinyl is good for when you want a clear window but the window needs to be stronger and less likely to rip or tear. The polyester fiber mesh that is inside the vinyl layers prevents the material from stretching easily, and only comes in white.
