OK are the anti speed camera sprays such as Photo Blocker or Safeplate worth buying?

Nah, from what I've heard they are prety rubbish.

Better off removing your plate all together. Laughing

If you can't spot a fucking big yellow box while riding out on the road, I'd suggest either an eyesight test is needed or you should hand your licence back.

Yes, of course something (which is most likely just water) sprayed onto your plate will prevent pictures being taken of it. Can I interest you in some magic beans for just £10 each? Thumbs Up

edit: doh, too slow Laughing

I saw this too. No idea if it was one of these sprays though as they obviously didn't go into detail.

They reckon making your plate slightly convex and spraying with gloss lacquer is suppose to reflect the light ! Don't know for sure if it works !
I know I got a spot fine for having what the cops thought was a reflective plate ,it was not just was honeycombe background with no eu number .
I got autoquip to pay the fine as they sold it to me as legal !

A blob of mud accidentally splashed over a couple of digits would be better - and cheaper.

The problem is, if you're speeding, unless that blob of mud is super glued to the number plate, it's not going to be there for very long... Razz

And the police will stop and hassle you for this.
