Clear glass will attenuate but not eliminate uv rays. That is what causes upholstered furniture to fade in a house. Once you start putting films on glass uv penetration goes way down. Nearly all sunglasses, for example, block better than 80% of uv light.
Not sure why I have also read not to use any silicon products on the dash - perhaps a subject for another post.
