Window Privacy Film One Way Daytime Mirror Tint Treatments UV Heat Control Vinyl Stickers Sun Block Glass Paper Door Covering Reflective (Black Silver, 17.5 Inch x 15.7 Feet)

I installed this on my home office window and two large bathroom windows. It has worked very well. As long as the light outside is brighter you have privacy. It does have a tint, and does dim the light coming in, but not badly. I am very happy with the results. Install was easier than other tints that I have installed. Use lots of soapy water and it installs easy enough. Two people do make it so much easier. It has been installed for almost a year and still no bubbles, so happy about that also.

I’m pretty happy with this film now that it’s been up for a week. I purchased the silver/black. My main purpose was to make it so no one could see in my house during the day after my inbred, white trash neighbors broke into my house.I was pleasantly surprised with the heat blocking effect it had during the day. Before my purchase, I was concerned about it looking strange with the outer mirror effect but, you can’t even tell unless you stand in front of the window and see your own reflection.The installation was super annoying for me because I’ve never tinted any window before. Plus, I had no help bc my husband’s backside is attached to the bed lol Because of his absolute laziness when it comes to all work home-related, I’ve become fairly handy when it comes to new tasks like this. However, I’m definitly not saying it’s not tedious as hell. The directions tell you to remove the protective film from the mirror side, apply the film to the window and then reapply the protective film to the back before smoothing it on to avoid scratches. This is a major design flaw to me. The protective film isn’t smooth and has this tacky, “grabby” surface that makes it difficult to use anything to smooth on the window film and get out the bubbles. So, there will be scratches on your film. Personally I found no way to avoid this. I even bought a tinting kit that had the scrapers that you apply felt or suede to and used an entire spray bottle of water to no avail. I’ve gotten over the scratches for the most part but honestly-deep down in my nit-picky, subconscious heart it does slightly bother me.After I thought I had smoothed out all the bubbles, I could see this blue haze under the film. This is water and will go away over a few days.The film from the inside during the day gives a slight blurring, mosaic effect. The tint dims my house kind of like a pair of cheap black, sunglasses from a gas station. Light kind of looks like it’s a gray day outside. And at night it’s creepy bc you can’t see out unless you’re very close to the window. It looks like a black piece of plexi glass and with lights on you can see your reflection better than you can see outside. And yes, you can see from the outside in at night.Would I do this again? Right now I would say yes. My neighbors broke in during the day and they obviously cased my house during the day. I feel like the crackheads would’ve probably been more chicken to break in if they couldn’t have seen in at all. But that’s my thinking- I’m not some thieving drug addict, though. Having this film gave me the confidence to open my curtains again during the day and feel some kind of normalcy after having my home’s sanctity violated.Will I leave this up during the winter? Probably not. It’s summer right now so it’s bright out, in the south so we’re averaging 90 degrees out per day so the film is helpful for temperature. In winter, it’s darker quicker so the tint may make it too dark in my house. Plus, the scratches- yes, I’m still thinking about that lol And I’m not sure if I’ll be able to overlook them forever. They’re not horrible but, when the light hits them just right it grates my perfection nerves.I probably will take it down when I feel completely at ease again. My neighbors moved out 3 days after they broke in and I confronted them. I also walked the whole neighborhood and told all my neighbors that they were casing the neighborhood during the day while most people were at work. I had the police driving through the neighborhood constantly and they even parked in my driveway sometimes. That helped them decide that they needed to move ASAP and that their break-in and drug gig was up in our quiet little neighborhood. I say all of this for the other victims out there looking for comfort after a break-in. This window film really did aid in helping me feel comfortable in and away from my home again. So, in my opinion, totally worth the money and headache of hanging..and scratches.. Definitely shell out the extra $13 for a tinting kit because this film doesn’t offer any applicators.

When I bought the product, I bought it so that I could not see the inside from the outside, but when I apply it to the glass surface, I cannot see the outside from the inside. Although I applied it both ways, unfortunately it works in reverse function. I have to look for a new product, my money is wasted.

If you're even a little bit crafty, you can easily put these on the window. No problem I had them up in 10 minutes. They are so easy to install. I was completely surprised at how easy it is, but also it's a cheaper film. You can definitely tell the quality is not that great it's over price but it's very similar to the expensive film so you can put it up and it'll get the job done and it has a potential to look very very nice if you just go slow take your time make a nice cut, make it look symmetrical. I can't stress how important it is to have your windows completely clean no hair no chunks of dirt. A lot of people don't know, but when you put up this type of film, the bubbles behind the glass are normal and they will go away the water will dry out. You have to make sure to squeeze all of the water out and if you leave some behind, it's OK cause it'll dry on its own. Don't stress about every lives bubble give it three days and then go back to it and you can fix the bubbles if you need to, but let it get rid of the bubbles on its own. The film is very durable so you can squeegee 100 times and it'll be in tack. I ordered this film lien kit on Amazon for seven dollars and it came with all the tools I needed to trim it and lay it down. I would order that also overall it does keep your privacy people cannot see through it and you can see owl, so I would give this a try, but keep in mind it's not the best quality film again it gets the job done and it looks like the real deal if you do it the right way use lotta soapy water and just squeegee it out flat

You cannot see out from inside ...it makes the whole window black! Could have taped a black Bristol board on the window for $1.50.

très bien

This was much better than another one I bought. Clear, easy instructions. Thick film. It’s not good at night if this is what you’re needing so this won’t be for you. I need it for day time which is works great.

Bought two rolls hoping to cover kitchen window instead of blind. Scrubbed windows etc. followed the instructions but didn’t work. Just seemed to slide off.

Excellent
