rabbitgoo Window Privacy Film One Way Window Tint for Home, Removable Reflective Heat Sun Blocking Anti UV Glass Door Covering, Mirror Tinting Film House Office, 17.5 in X 6.5 Feet, Silver

TLDR: AMAZING product, easy install and, most importantly, IDIOT PROOF!Now for the review:I like pretty things. So, when I saw these privacy films on a buzzfeed post, I knew I had to have them! I bought the one-way privacy film and the pretty rainbow one. Well… my excitement got the best of me.The films come with instructions but, how hard can it be, right? I opened the box, threw away the directions, and started “installing”.First mistake. If I would have read the directions, I would have known that I had to ADD WATER TO MAKE IT STICK. I figured it out a little later than I would have wanted, and thankfully I only made one scratch on the film. Once you add water, the films stickiness is unmatched - it gives you some grace to move it around, but it will stick after a little while.Second mistake: buy the right size for your window! I was too hurried to measure my windows, and bought a size too small. I thought “oh, that’s fine. I can just cut it.” Well yes, and no…. The film is easy to cut and tailor to your window… IF you’re able to cut in a straight line. I went at it with a little blade and obviously did not get the straight lines this film would have gladly given me.Despite my inability to read, the film doesn’t look all that bad! It’s definitely a one-way screen and, if you look outside through your window, you can still see the outside very clearly with a nice blue tint. It definitely makes a difference against the sun, and my room feels a bit cooler.After butchering the privacy screen on the first install, I decided to read the directions for the pretty white one that emits rainbows: a world of a difference. The instructions take no more than 30 seconds to read, and it made a complete difference! No bad lines, no ugly streaks, no mistakes. Took me less than 5 minutes to install after I left the film under some books to straighten it out.I love these films and, once I get over how stupid I was the first time, I’m definitely going to buy these again to re-do the first window. I don’t regret this purchase! Beautiful tint at a very affordable price.

This is exactly what I was looking for and I’m so happy I took the risk and bought it.In the photos I attached, you’ll see the before and after or the window I wanted to cover.Let me explain the second image. The glass on my window is frosted and I initially put the film on the inside of the window. You can see in the photo how it didn’t adhere well and left a ton of air bubbles and ripples no matter how much I tried to smooth it out. It fell off in less than a hour. The third photo is of the film on the other side of the window and you can see it worked perfectly. It adhered and was very easy to work the air bubbles out of and left it completely smooth and flawless.All this to say, if you have a frosted glass window, I recommend putting it on the smoothest side which might sound obvious at first but it depends on which side you wanted it to be on (indoor v outdoor for example).Let me tell you about the installation process now.It’s pretty simple but you definitely need to take your time. It’s going to look ugly and imperfect if you rush at all because the film is delicate and cuts like butter. I followed the instructions that were included and attempted to leave a little excess on all sides to trim it perfectly after it stuck on the window. This method was very difficult for me personally since I was doing it alone so it slipped around quite a bit if I needed to hold it firmly to make a cut. I ended up ruining one section just trying to trim it to fit the window.After that, I measured the window precisely, I’m talking down to the sixteenth of an inch and cut it exactly to the measurement of my window. It made it so much easier to put it on for me and it looks great. If you use this method, take your time. Measure twice and cut once as they say. Use something straight to trace the lines all the way down the material so you can make a clean cut. I recommend using an exacto knife or razor blade for the best cut although scissors did cut it with no problem. The most important thing for the entire process it to take your time and go slowly.Aside from cutting it out, the installation is easy. Just clean your window thoroughly, spray it with water, spray the adherent side of the film with water, and apply it.The only thing I wish was different is that it came with a squeegee. I didn’t have one small enough to fit the corners so I used a credit card which worked fine but I like the idea of them including a tiny squeegee with it in case you really don’t have anything to use.You get a good amount on the roll and could use it for several windows depending on the size.Overall, this is exactly what I was looking for and I’d recommend it to anyone. It’s easy to install, looks sleek, and sticks on well!!

I really wanted to give a review to provide some tips. These are really great privacy window screens and you can’t see in or out. I provided a pic at night so you can see as well the difference with and without the privacy screen as I wasn’t finished putting them all up. The clear film that is on it, can be a pain to take off so that requires some patience. I would highly suggest cleaning the windows with soap and water first and then going back to windex. I provided a pic to show how the screen will show every flaw on the window versus a clean application. I didn’t do a very good job with my first application in terms of cleaning, just thought that two windex rounds would do the trick but nope, once I sprayed with water, shamefully it was black. It’s not a big deal as I will be getting this window replaced due to a crack in it. I wanted to show the difference between how it will look if your window is dirty versus clean so please take the time to really clean your windows. A good box cutter and a wedge tool will help ensure clean cuts and getting bubbles out of this is super easy. Its not a sticker, it just adheres to the window so you can easily remove and adjust as needed. That’s what I love about this, it’s very forgiving if you make a mistake. I’m only removing one star because of the clear film. You wouldn’t know it was on there if you didn’t read the instructions.
