You use one-way reflective window film.... comes in four colors, bronze, gold, silver or platinum.... https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=one-way+reflective+window+film you apply it with a bit of water and a squeegee.Helpful Reply -

The gloss won't make a difference, but the black would definitely block the sun. Just make sure to get paint that you can use on glass, I am sure the associates at your local home improvement store will be able to help you find what you need.Helpful Reply -

You can get shade cloth at some diy stores or order from an agricultural source. the ag store has a 90percent sun blocker rating. its a knitted material and makes a good sun blocking material. I’ve used it as curtians in my tiny camper....and on a few windows for the house.Helpful Reply -

I would use blackout fabric. Cut out bigger than window, then edge with Velcro and then do the same around the window but use a sticky backed Velcro.Helpful Reply -

You need a shade with an energy shield, this blocks the heat an keeps the cold out. It's 2 way purpose is worth the price. A white shade should do it.Helpful Reply -

Traditionally, white will reflect the light, black blocks it. For our windows we put up dark thermal panels/drapes that are white on the outside.Helpful Reply -
