    Red acrylic is my latest solution but I still feel it is too bright. Last
    night I added three layers of red film over the red acrylic and it did give
    a dimmer view but I would still like to go a little dimmer. I had the
    thought last night of trying a thicker piece of red acrylic. I'm using 1/8"
    currently.

    I'm looking forward to hearing what others have to say.
