osprey 0 Report post Posted August 20, 2010 Hi, I am looking for privacy window film to cover my full length window. That is to say, outside can't really see thru easily but from inside, can see out, yet retain teh clear glass effect. Does anyone got lobang or recommendation for this ? Appreciate your advice.

You are actually asking for a "one-way mirror", lighting conditions are important for this application. "Observer" side must be always darker........no such thing as True one-way mirror. Curtain is still the best, try make a 2-layer curtains, one thin, one dark. Apply thin to let light in, but others can't completely see through.... http://www.apexfilms.ca/one-way_two-way_mirror.htm Edited August 21, 2010 by bepgof Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JadeShrimp 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2010 (edited) Mine is corridor unit, hence I used those frosted films to stick onto my windows. Effect is very much to my satisfaction and I don't have to install curtains or blinds for privacy. Edited August 23, 2010 by JadeShrimp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pearl 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2010 My service yard overlooked the corridor therefore have also DIY the privacy window film for my kitchen glass windows. A few shots of the done up glass windows can be seen in my blog. We have followed these steps as directed by the DIY shop owner :- 1.Cleaned the window glasses. Spray the mixture content from the spray bottle on the entire window, to make it wet and slippery. 2.Carefully moved the cut window film on the slippery glass to it exact location and position. 3.Use the plastic window blade to adjust the film on the glass and to scrape off the bubbles downright under the film. 4.A pen-knife may be necessary to trim off the little excess measurement of window film at the glass corner edge. 5.And once done, let the window film dry up for awhile. 6.Do the same step from 1 to 5 doing the same for the next window glass.
