That's the biggest drawback. We actually print/sell perforated vinyl and that is the biggest problem with it. Only way to avoid this is to have it printed, and then you have it laminated. The lamination has a UV coating that protects the vinyl, plus water doesn't pool in the perfs like GWolfe mentions.
It comes in rolls and is white. It is installed just like window tint, but goes on the outside of the window. I've not heard of any issues with heat on the windows.
I actually used some on my bedroom windows because I hated the light coming through at our favorite campground. I got some scrap from work (white) and then sprayed it lightly with black spraypaint.
It served it's purpose, but I was planning on going with some of the ceramic tint for both heat rejection and looks.
Higher end fifth wheels use the perf vinyl on their windows. It is a good look.
