VELIMAX 1/2-Inch Reeded Glass Window Film, Frosted Reeds Window Film, Window Privacy Film, 3D Window Decals Non Adhesive for Bathroom Living Room Office, 17.7x78.7 inches

We had our front windows redone and a window that was made of ribbed privacy glass was replaced. This window was too narrow and long to take normal window treatments like curtains or blinds.I was really happy to find this because it makes the new window match the other windows in the house that have the old 1950s privacy glass.Goes up fairly easily with patience.

After much deliberation, procrastination and a few glasses of wine, I decided it would be much easier to cover the glass doors to the craproom than clean out the crap. And I was right. But nervous. I read a lot of reviews stating this stuff was hard to use and stuck to itself and made a mess with the water, etc. I didn’t find any of that to be the case at all.I ordered a roll for each door, held it up and eyeballed it and then cut the whole dang strip lengthwise. I taped it to the wood above the glass insert at the top of the door, sprayed a healthy volume of fine mist water from a travel size spray bottle and grabbed a credit card to squeegee the film to the door and swoosh out the droplets. Had a microfiber towel on hand to wipe away the excess water. It was easier than expected. Just keep watching the sides and make sure it’s lined-up. At the bottom of the glass I eyeballed it, cut off the unused portion and stuck it down using the same water method. Done.The next door I decided to try a different tactic. Because why keep using one that works when you can potentially screw it up, right? Yeah, so I cut as I went. Still taped the top of the roll to the wood at the top of the door to hold it in place while I was lining it up. Then I stuck one side flush to the edge and cut the other side with an exacto knife as I was sticking it to the glass. I made some bad cuts and you can tell but that’s not the point. The point is, the first way worked much better. The film stuff is very easily manipulated, easy to lift off and re-stick many (many) times. The tape at the top was a huge help.The crap inside the room is still visible, but blurred and not screaming at people when they come in the front door, like before the film. (Those were dark days.) The opaqueness is perfect for jambling the contents of the room, rendering the books, crafts, books, pens, books, I’m not sure what all is in there stuff colorful but not identifiable. Perfect!!!I’m trying to get a good pic that doesn’t make it look like it’s not stuck in some places, because it is! This hasn’t lifted or peeled or done bad things at all. It’s been weeks and all I have noticed is the peace and tranquility of the mess-free happy place.So in conclusion, we are very pleased with this project (especially my hubby who just glides past the doors now as if they are a fine piece of art). Hmmm, what else I can hide instead of clean….*Pic shows light from the open windows inside the room, the film is stuck very well to the glass inserts. Oh, and they are beveled glass too so that’s extra cool. You can make out the white cabinets and colored stuff but photo also shows the jambling. It’s beautiful science.** For those who are curious, I applied the film to the inside of the doors. Guess you could do both sides for extreme jambling.

Wasn’t expecting this cling to be amazing or anything, so I’m mostly happy. It is easy to snag when trying to settle out the air / moisture pockets, so there is some wrinkling/minor tears that bother me a little. But works well for intended purpose and would purchase again if needed.

This product either arrived used (all my roles btw) or this product is NOT as described. No backing, no grid work at all.No cling. As in it does NOT stay on the glass. No matter which side is applied to the glass, and I’ve used many other products like this; none of which I’ve EVER thought, try glue to hold it on….which also did not work.Worst product available.
