IS this clear, allowing UV sunlight to help kill bacteria? Or is it opaque?

No it is blue like bubble wrap used it all summer in NJ worked great also helped with over night debis . Had no problem with bacteria or algee just keep cleaning the filter and use pool tabs in a float

It's not super clear but uv will get through. It is essentially bubble wrap. It warms the pool. But I did notice I need more Algaecide for control.

Opaque but don't worry, the clorine kills everything. I left it on for 2 weeks while away on vaccation and came back to a crystal clear and warm pool.

It's opaque. It's blue in color so it looks clear when you put it on the surface. It looks and feels exactly like blue bubble wrap.

It is not translucent. I have never had an algae problem, but who knows what's going on inside the tubing. It is one tough hose....my husband wants to replace all of our others with the Tuff-Guard.

I would have to describe this as translucent rather than clear. You can see through it but it is a milky clear, so to speak.

You can see through it fairly well, you can tell what color the contents are for example, but it isn't transparent like glass. I think the term is opaque.

They are transparent although not completely clear. I'm not sure this is what you're looking for. They're great for shelf liners but have never used them for anything else. I think if you're looking for sun to shine through, then it might be called indirect light. Really sorry I couldn't help you more.

It's practically completely opaque. It has a highly reflective surface. You'll see a reflection of what is on it, but not what is underneath it.

It's some kind of thick, strong synthetic fabric. Since it creates shade, i would think it blocks UV but I don't really know. Light does come through it, just softer and more muted.

Relatively clear or opaque until your animals rub through it multiple times. :)

UV filter coating imbues a slight color tinge, and reduces the amount of light. Clear is actually preferable. UV filtering is unnecessary with modern lenses.

The light is UV and it seems to work well. Not recommended for daily use but once every couple of weeks for a manicure it does not seem to have any negative results.

It goes on pretty clear but may appear slightly opaque. În the sunlight you can see some reflection. Don't waste your money thoughe because it really doesn't work.

It's clear-ish, just a bit cloudy. It would probably show on black. The stuff is incredibly gooey & works very well in keeping critters as well as birds off treated areas. Be careful not to get any on or near the mailbox door as it will make a mess & your mail person will not be happy either. Good answer from "chiefarchitect" below.

Actually it's clear. The film is opaque and the leaf pattern is much less so. I can't tell you how many compliments I've had on this wonderful alternative to curtains. It lets light through while you have complete privacy!

UV lights are supposed to kill algae. These lights only work effectively though if you have a filter (I think they recommended a 1 micron) on the water line before the UV light. If large particles are allowed to go through the UV light, they shield other organisms from the UV light and create the possibility of contamination. The system has worked great for us--we have a well with bacterial issues. We installed a large 5 micron sediment filter and a smaller 1 micron filter on the water line before it enters the UV system.

It is totally opaque. We are using it as a divider to a loft where we have a guest in our house, and she feels secure that no one could see through the divider to her. We are VERY happy with this divider.

Its "clear" but its not transparent. Its got all the duct tape texture so you can't see through it completely but its definitely not colored.

I'm not a molecular scientist but i do believe the exposure to the uv light is extremely minimal.Need notworry about sunburn.
