First off I want to start off my review stating that I tried several different window films. I finally swapped over to this one because it had the reflective material that I really wanted to actually reflect away the energy instead of absorbing it, and it is used for the exterior. Let me elaborate a bit on this. I initially tried Gala products that were also all reflective. I tried their privacy and heat control stuff. The problem with those is that they get extremely hot on the INSIDE of the window. That is so ridiculous because all that does is radiate heat still slowly into the room. I saw zero to maybe barely any temperature drop when using that product. That changed dramatically when I tried this stuff. This stuff goes on the exterior and will ALSO heat up a bit, however this stuff is on the outside glass so the wind will carry away some of the heat and the heat will radiate back OUTSIDE of the house.This stuff is so shiny, that as the sun sets I can see casts of light shooting across my lawn that moves along with the sun. That is point one, is that is proof that it is reflecting a lot of the energy elsewhere, preventing that energy from entering the room. The interior stuff also did this but it certainly did not have as much of a reflection as this stuff, and the energy would still get absorbed into the panes of glass as the energy kept passing through the glass. Physically, this stuff works. *Some* of it has started peeling a bit at the bottom of the windows but the windows were atrociously dirty and although I tried my best to clean them, there seemed to be enough debris to allow it to lift a little. No worries, the other parts still have enough of a strong adhesive that it is still sticking so far. I live in very windy Rhode Island too, near the coast! I have already invested in 3 rolls of the 36"x14'. I just keep coming back for more when I come home to a warmer house, knowing that I could further cool it off from the summer rays.A few points before you jump in on this. It is difficult to apply, especially to large windows. I pretty much became a professional after doing it so much with several rolls even from different companies. Just clean the window thoroughly. I use car care products and even used some of my clay bars meant for my car on the windows before putting the film on to try to make sure it was really clean. Use tons and tons of soapy water too, spray it everywhere as you slowly peel the clear plastic off the film. Another note is this stuff has dropped the temperature by maybe 3-5 degrees at most. I ONLY have it on my west windows since that was the problem area for me and I think I could get a further drop if I did it on my east windows. Your results will obviously vary depending on window size and where your problem areas are. Don't expect this stuff to replace air conditioning.
