KESPEN Window Privacy Film Frosted Glass Heat Control UV Blocking Privacy Window Film for Glass Windows Static Cling Non-Adhesive Door Coverings Decals for Bathroom Home Office, 47.2 Inch X 19.7 Feet

These were not that hard to install, if you follow instructions and take your time they can look very good. My pictures show during daytime you cannot see inside, and you can see outside with minimal visual distortion. I did not take night pictures, but at night you can see inside. The only downside to these is that looking from inside to the outside at night seemed very poor.This is what I found to work best for install.If you have plenty of material left over after cutting out what you need, use some of the excess to practice with.1. Get a good squeegee - I got this one EHDIS Small Squeegee 5 inch Rubber Window Tint Squeegee for Car, Glass, Mirror, Shower, Auto,Windows2. Thoroughly clean your windows. Don't just wipe them down, clean them. Clean them a few times.3. Measure the glass you want to cover, then add at least a half inch to each edge. So if your window is 20" wide, you want at least 21" of material or more.4. Cut your material to the amount you just figured out.5. Make a spray bottle of soapy water. Don't go crazy with the soap, just a drop or two is plenty.6. Spray your window so that every inch is wet and the water is dripping down - you cannot get it too wet.7. Peel the plastic protective sheet off the film.8. Spray the cling side of the film (the same side that had the protective plastic) with your soapy water.9. Give another couple sprays to the window, especially the top edge if your water has dripped down.10. Place the film onto the window so that the edges overlap the window. The film will automatically cling to the window and some of the soapy water will go away. You can adjust the position of the film as necessary to get the edges overlapping.11. Use the squeegee ONLY in a small section of the center of the window - DO NOT wipe to the edges. This will help the film stay in place while you cut it to fit. You do not want to squeegee to the edges because you still need the soapy water to help the edges stick after you get the film trimmed to size.12. Use a sharp hobby/exacto knife to cut the film. Push the film down so that it gets as far into the corner of the glass and the frame as possible. I found it easier to start from the middle and work my way into the corners. Go VERY SLOW! A nice slow cut will help you cut straight. I also found it helpfull to cut an entire sliver off, and not just to the corner of the window.13. Once you have it completely trimmed, use the squeegee starting from the center of the window and work your way to the outside edges. Do it multiple times, even if it looks like the soapy water is gone.14. If you have any edges that are not sticking, gently pull the edge back far enough that you can spray more soapy water in there, then use the squeegee again.

This window film is absolutely perfect. It gives a true mirror reflection on the outside, while staying one-way from the inside you can see out clearly, but no one can see in.The material is high quality, goes on smooth and easy, and gives professional results.Honestly, if it weren’t for the cheap application kit I made the mistake of buying separately, this would have been a flawless install. (Lesson learned the film itself is top notch.)Highly recommend this product if you want real privacy and a clean, sharp look!

I live in Alaska, just 100 miles south of the Arctic Circle, in the Land of the Midnight Sun. I've tried several different products to darken my room enough to sleep well with different degrees of effectiveness. I was very excited to see this product and surprised that it worked so well. I get nearly 100% light blockage from this film. Unfortunately, it hasn't stayed firmly attached and I needed to use tape to hold it up. But, I'd still buy it again because it works well and was much easier and more esthetically pleasing than the other things I'd tried.

Well, I just want to say this stuff is fantastic. It's super thick vinyl, not like the cheap crap you get for your car. It also reflects light pretty dang good. If you look at my pictures, there is one where you can see the blinds on the left. That is the only window I couldn't complete on my whole house (in pictures) with the 35.4" x 32.8' roll. However, if you look closely, it is also the only one that you can see the blinds through. That alone should tell you this crap works. I live in an area that gets to about 200*F on a cool winter afternoon, and the front of my house heats up like a smelting furnace. My power bill, is, well, astronimcal. And that is just so I can wake up in the morning without wet sweaty sheets. My kitchen, in the afternoon, is like he*l's inferno, and Satan himself would be asking to go back home if he had to stand in front of one of the windows. LUCKILY, after installing these on the first window in my kitchen, it instantly felt about 10 degrees cooler. I couldn't feel the sun beating through anymore. By the way, I have 2" thick vinyl blinds on every window, and they only help so much. Anyway, after finishing the front of the house, I came home the next afternoon and my house felt MUCH cooler, so I did the back of the house. My bedroom no longer gets sunlight in the morning to wake me up through the blinds, and I love it. I totally recommend.Now, to the good stuff. I have never used tint before, so know this:1. Buy a window tint kit. Make sure you get one with a straight edge razor, a squeegee with the cloth wrapping, and a regular window squeegee. I purchased this one for 10 buckaroos: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01J3QVS2K?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details2. Buy a metal meter stick from harbor freight or walmart, because you will need it to measure your cuts as well as to use as a guide for cutting. Also, buy a medium sharpee to mark the areas as well. When I made my cuts, I set it down on a flat hard substrate that I didn't mind gouging, and I set the meter stick to the marks I made and sliced down the meter stick, using it as a guide.3. It is better to cut your squares a little big than a little small. You can always use a ruler or a squeegee to mash the tint to the edge of the window, and run a razor down the crease. If you are cutting excess out in the window frame, which you will most likely do, I used a metal ruler to guide my razor, because it is virtually impossible to keep a straight line if you do not use a straight object as a guide to run your razor down.4. The directions show a bottle for soapy water. Throw the directions out. I found that a big a$$ mixing bowl with a 50/50 dawn dish soap and water solution works just great after screwing around with my first two windows. I used a micro fiber cloth, wet the window generously with my dawn solution, and then stuck my tint to it. Then if the tint doesn't slide easy, as in no effort used, then take it off, and reapply a generous amount of solution. That will do the trick, as now the tint is already soapy, and now the window is now soapy.**** Did I mention you need your glass spotless? Cuz' you do. If you don't, your little cat or dog hairs or boogers will show up under the tint. Use the soapy solution you make, and scrub with a micro fiber, and then use the squeegee you buy to swipe the window clean!!!6. Once you tint is in place, ALWAYS WET THE BACK OF IT GENEROUSLY, because this stuff will stretch and contort and malform itself. If you keep the back of it slippery, your squegee will move easily without scratching it or stretching it.7. Do not press hard. Use light pressure, as you will scratch it or stretch it.5. DO NOT USE A HEAT GUN YOU DO NOT NEED IT DO NOT USE A HEAT GUN YOU WILL DESTROY YOUR VINYL. ASK ME HOW I KNOW.6. Once you have it squeegeed into place, you can start cutting the excess millimeters off to make it fit correctly. USE YOUR RULER AS A GUIDE!!!!7. You need some small gaps in order for the soapy water and air to escape, so even a small amount of gap between the window frame and tint doesn't matter. It still blocks light just as good.8. Once you are down, you can wipe 'er down. Come back in a few hours, and you will be able to see where all bubbles are that you missed. In my case, it was the next day, and they don't look like bubbles as much as baby swirls, which is water trapped under. I just made another batch of dawn solution, wiped down the back of tint with it, and squeegeed the rest of the bubbles out!9. Enjoy your nice dark and cool area!That's my review of this, as I reallly appreciate how well it seems to be working. I'm excited to see how much my power bill drops, because even if it's only 10 bucks a month, this stuff pays for itself in less than a year. I'll be back to update.UPDATE: My first power bill was down $60. 2 months of that in the summer pays for all of the materials. The house has been noticeably cooler as well.
