The film is very difficult to apply, took a lot of time and would not hold. Also it cannot take direct sunlight either. Major air pockets are forming and the film is falling off. I’ve used other adhesive film in the past and never had this kind of issues.

I enjoy natural light, privacy, and being able to see the sky and trees. I don't want to see my neighbors, and I feel confident that they're not really wanting to see in my house either. These films make all this possible.I'm delighted. We'll see how they hold up over time. They're sheer in terms of not being too thick, or hard to work with - I gave that a 4 because I am not sure what they mean by sheer. They have some visibility of color for things nearby, but mainly it's just diffused light and shadow.In so far as installing them, I found it pretty straightforward, even being injured - I just did one set of windows at a time over a few days.Measure twice, cut once and check before applying. Maybe trimming as needed. I used a clear ruler, which was really handy to properly note and evenly draw the needed lines. The measuring and cutting were the most difficult part, and it wasn't that hard to do. Oh, if you can, lay out the section of the roll to let it flatten first. Makes it easier to handle when it's not curling up on you.They stretch a wee bit when removing the paper backing, so I found cutting a little short to ensure the corners laid inside the edges of the window worked best. I discovered that the edges of some of my windows had uneven sealant, which impacted how the films laid down on the glass.Once placed, the films are easy to adjust, or even pull back and relay if needed. I used my shower squeegee to smooth out the air pockets and make minor adjustments to the placement. It's just slightly soapy water as opposed to some glue, so low risk to adjust as needed.Easy clean up, and the quality of light is fantastic.

Overall great product. As advertised.Pros:Easy to adhere (don’t be afraid to use water it helps with the adhesive-when it’s not smooth you get more tension)Great privacyAesthetically pleasingCons:It was hard as hell to install. Granted I had two massive sides, it took 3 of us to hold it up and line it even.Use the sharpest tool you can find. Luckily my doors had groves that I could tuck the edges into.I will most likely redo it at some point because you can see some bubble and some water marks up close. For now it does the trick. May shop around for something a little easier, but happy overall

I used this for the sidelights by my front door. It does an excellent job letting in light but giving me the privacy I want. The directions to cut and install were excellent and everything worked quite well. However, I learned a couple of things in the process that should help you with a better result. 1. Measure very carefully the actual dimensions of your glass, and then cut the film about 1/8" less than your measurement. This will give you about 1/16" on each side that will allow you to accommodate the natural variances in the window (I learned quickly that the window glazing etc. is never perfectly straight).2. When you cut the film, it is best to use a straight edge (long metal ruler etc.) and cut with fresh single-edged razor blade or new X-acto knife. This will give you a very clean cut with much less risk of ripping that might happen with a utility knife.3. Make sure your window is VERY clean ... you don't want any dust or lint particles from your cloth ... microfiber is good. OR, if you have an eCloth or Norwex cloth, those work really well.4. Apply the water/soap mixture liberally to the film before applying ... the wetter the film, the easier it will be to maneuver into place. So yes, make sure you have rags on the floor under the window!5. Work the water and air bubbles out from the center moving outward, focusing on the upper part of the film first and then slowly work down. If you make sure your top edges are aligned, the bottom will work itself out (and people will notice imperfections near the top far more than any at the bottom!). Above all, take your time.6. Finally, if you discover that an edge of the film overlaps some of your glazing or wood, don't try to cut it while the film is still wet because you'll just rip it; wait for it to dry so you can make a clean, sharp cut. As long as you have worked out all the water and air bubbles, it should adhere very nicely to your glass.

I cut the film to fit exactly (30 x 41) because I was installing on a skylight over my head. The hardest part was getting a lot of it clinging to the glass at once and then repositioning it. This is probably the hardest installation possible (standing on the top of a six foot ladder with your head in a skylight.) Once I realized I could keep part of the film in place I could position the rest accurately and then adjust the first part to the correct position. On a door or window this would be stupid easy. I used a credit card as a squeegee with many small strokes to remove the water underneath the film. This worked fine. On traditional window tint this would not be fine as it would certainly damage the film. This vinyl film us much thicker and it does not stick to itself like traditional window tint. This is MUCH easier to handle. And if it all goes wrong there is no damage and you can simply start over again. I did not know what to expect exactly but I am very happy with the results and the material is a piece of cake to use and reuse. The installed film looks great and the light sparkles as it comes through. The illumination is broad and gentle giving a pleasing light to the room. The heat is stopped and the UV is stopped. This is a terrific window film. I am buying more to use on more skylights (that I had not thought to do before.) PS This is quite the glowing review but it is legit. This stuff is cheap and works great. Their warranty actually is no surprise, after my experience with it. They say no questions asked money back and you keep the film. That says a lot about this stuff.
