ABSTRACT:
A fluid composition for use in a rearview mirror of the type which contains a U.V. stable fluid light controlling medium, the composition consisting of a solvent, e.g., propylene carbonate, with a freezing point less than -30.degree. C. and a boiling point greater than 80.degree. C., a dye or mixture of dyes, e.g., a 1,2-chrome dye and a phthalocyanine dye, which is soluble in the solvent and optionally a U.V. stabilizing agent, e.g., a benzophenone, benzotriazole or organo-nickel complex, which is also soluble in the solvent. The dye or mixture of dyes has specifically defined light absorbance characteristics and in use is a fluid which is nontoxic, easy to handle, has a relatively high flash point, and is relatively inert to glass, rubbers and plastics.
