Review on 🪟 One Way Mirror Window Film: Daytime Privacy, UV Heat Control, Sun Blocking, Silver Reflective, 17.5"x7.8' Vinyl Stickers+ by Jared Gopalan

I put up my window film the other day…and it seems to still be in place.I followed the directions provided as best I could, with exception to placing the peel back on the window as I removed air bubbles. I found it difficult to see what I was doing, so I just left out that step. However, I did cover my card in a lens cloth to protect the surface. You might want to figure this out yourself.My windows were exactly the width of my material. I over cut and trimmed as required. I found the trimming a bit difficult, but the wet barrier allowed for adjustment before trimming. I live in a very old house with wonky window glazing anyway. But I’m not sorry with the results.It’s a decent sized window and I did get a few pieces of lint between the glass and film. I’d say, it’s more noticeable from outside than in… easy enough for me to ignore. I cleaned off a years worth of cat nose smudges before application…so ya, I can live with it. Weird, as I’m a frame straightener.I chose the film range rated for indoor plants. I live in the PNW and definitely feel this is my best option even if it does feel a bit like a cloudy day. I get morning and evening sun that really heats up the house in the summer. Normally in summer, I cannot open my blinds before noon, so cloudy day film seems a better option than curtains for me…and the plants. Very happy I didn’t go with the darkest film.No air conditioning! I’ll see how this goes. I’ve also decided to film all the small window panes in my sunroom, the room normally gets too hot to use in summer, unless your a cactus. I felt like it was pretty easy to film the first window with, about 95% success, so I could do more windows.If your an average joe you can properly affix the film. Follow the directions. If i want absolute perfection I think I could have pulled the film, rinse, and gave it another go. Paying a professional is also an option.Prepare your window. I scraped as well as cleaned the glass and frames.A note: use plenty of water. It’s easy enough to card and release air and water pockets.Take care of film barrier plastic separation. If your tint film creases just a little it will stay.Set up a best lint free place to separate film. I did not and got some spots.Maybe, get a second set of hands so the film never has to touch another surface while working.Understand your standards and what you can live with. My window isn’t perfect, but it’s also not too shabby. If you cannot handle too shabby…
