I put up some IR cameras and built boxes with 1/8 inch clear plexiglass on the front and at night time all I can see is the camera it is like the plexiglass is a mirror at night time. Is there anything I can do like maybe tint it or ???

Thanks in advance
Randy

First you need to move the camera so it is touching the Plexi. You might have to make a tube that will go around the lens to keep the lens from seeing the IRs.

Sort of like the messages that contain " I just found great new software", with the Engrish spelled wrong.

might need to take the front caps of the cameras then put them against the plastic -with a boot around the main lens to stop bleed-thru

you might get secondary refections otherwise
