Coavas Reeded Glass Window Privacy Film, 3D Fluted, 17.5"x78.7"

Right off the bat you might think they sent you the wrong color when you get it, but trust me it’s not. We ordered the one that looks clear and has prismatic colored effects in it. When it arrived it looked smoked on the roll, like tint for car windows. We decided to install it anyway, thinking it’s just for a bathroom so it doesn’t matter all that much. Turns out once it is unrolled and installed it is the right color. It’s not tinted at all, is very clear and translucent, and has the colored prismatic effects just like we wanted. Installation is pretty easy. The instructions said to clean the window, then spray water on the glass, then peel the backing off of the film and apply it to the glass and use a credit card to smooth out the ripples. Only thing I lacked was a spray bottle so I just used a wet rag to wet the glass and then applied the film. That worked great. For trimming to size I just rolled the film out and cut it to the exact length needed for the window width. I used a metal ruler as a guide and just used a pocket knife along the edge to cut the film. It cuts easily. I figured I’d cut one length exact so I don’t have to trim it two directions once on the window. You have to cut it anyway to remove it from the roll, so just cut it exactly to length. Then I pressed the film onto the glass, and being cut exactly to length it fits side to side just right, and then I had the top edge all the way up, so that means it fit perfectly on three sides. All I had to do was trim the final side. I use the credit card to smooth out the air bubbles and then press the final side tightly against the window frame and use my pocket knife to cut it for a pretty smooth fit. The final result looks amazing.

I've included pictures from inside and outside, day and night. The window film is just about perfect based on what I expected. They look a lot like Venetian blinds and give a decent amount of privacy. Because of the gaps between the stripes, of course you can see through a bit (especially if the other side of the screen is brighter than the side you are on), but that's to be expected. I like that I can still see who's on my porch if I need to, and it's not completely blocked off. As far as installation, I didn't have too difficult a time installing this. It was almost exactly the right width so I just needed to trim off the edge with a knife. I used Windex to clean the window first, then sprayed both the window and the film with a spray bottle of lots of plain water. It went on well, and I used a plastic card as a squeegee to push the bubbles to the edge. This worked fine and I was able to eliminate all the bubbles. Some people have mentioned that when they ordered this, it came with vertical stripes and not horizontal stripes. This wasn't the case for me. I got horizontal ones. If I hadn't, I had planned to cut the film up and put it up with horizontal stripes anyway, but it wasn't necessary. I'm quite happy with this. I had Venetian blinds on that door before, but the cats kept destroying them. This, they won't break. And because of the clear stripes between the frosted ones, the kitties can still see out!

Looks and functions great! We needed something to block the view from our dog who normally barks at everything that walks by, and it works for that purpose. The fun 3D effect looks really great too, especially when back lit. Light sources on the other side of it create a trippy block of color. Especially cool when then a moving light passes by, such as headlights. We love it. Docking 1 star because installation was a little tough—measuring and cutting large pieces perfectly straight was tough (one of our panels doesn’t quite reach edge to edge bc I cut it badly), but eventually figured out it’s better to cut a few centimeters bigger and trim down with an exactly knife once it’s on the window. Definitely needed to add soap to the water spray mix. A large squeegee also makes removing bubbles a lot easier (we had a 6 inch one that we gave for cleaning in our shower). Messed up on one panel by accidentally letting the sticky sides touch each other after removing the backing film, but wetting it helped to separate it again. Price was a little better than alternatives.

I’ve been looking for something a little different from a full frosted look that would give a little more of a modern feel. This is going to give us privacy without taking away the natural light.

Don't be like me and not read instructions! I thought I had to simply cut to size spray water and put them in place, nope! They fell off, so I watched the very helpful video and realized it had a backing you have to peel off first, duh, that makes so much sense now! Pulled that backing off hung them and they have not come off! It looks really good and blocks light enough without making it dark. It's a little tricky to work with because it's in a roll and not flat, but if I can do it anybody can!

Product was thin and hard to apply. No instructions were included, but there was basic brief printed on the outside of the box. There was no 3D texture to the film itself, which I found odd considering the product description. I considered that maybe I was inept, but after the adhesive started decomposing in my 2 parts distilled to 1 part 70% isopropyl solution during application, I chose to tear it off my window and bin it. Gonna try another listing.

Product ripped and was challenging to get up. I just ordered 2 more rolls to try again. Its pretty if it can go up easier. One roll was good the other not so much.

Used on one panel of a three sided clear glass shower stall that needed a little more privacy. The directions recommend using two people to install and it would have been helpful but I managed to get it up myself without much difficulty. I had a spray bottle of water with a drop of dish soap added and used it generously to help positioning and then used a small rubber shower squeegee to get all the bubbles out. IF YOU HAVE PETS, BE SURE TO VACUUM THE AREA WELL BEFORE INSTALL. There is a lot of static electricity when you remove the backing and it is easy to end up with pet fur between the film and the glass that will show and leave a bubble that can't be removed.

O efeito é bem realista. Gostei

Use el producto para bloquear una ventanita a la cual le daba el sol directamente por la mañana y era un poco molesto
