Question Baader Solar Film Question

On Thursday morning I will be aiming to get a full solar globe set of images using the meade 6.3 reducer on the Orion ED80 and I've suddenly realized I don't have a 2" IR/UV filter to fit my 6.3 reducer and have no way of converting it to take my current 1.25: filter to achieve correct colour balance.

My question to my learned colleagues is, will the Baader Solar Film perform a similar function. It is after all designed to keep out harmful rays.
