Review: IT WORKS!!! Found out the hard way. - Update: This film works and I found out the hard way. 4am on Saturday I woke to a loud, fast banging that also shook the house. I ran down the stairs to find out what was going on as my alarm went off (glass break sensors). I found a burglar attempting to bust in the window of the back door. Between me and the alarm, he was scared off. He had hit the big glass window of the back door around a dozen times with a small crow bar. This created a little hole in the window, but the film kept the 100 year old plate glass window mostly in place. This film slowed down his entry long enough for other layers of protection to scare him away. Instead of a couple seconds it would've taken without the film, the creep was working on that window for a little while before he was scared off. If I didn't have this film on the back door window, he may have gotten in the house, I don't wanna know what might have happened to my family sleeping inside. As the cops came and searched the area for the burglar, the window hole slowly got bigger as gravity pulled the glass down and tore the film. It started out a little smaller than a tennis ball size and grew to a football sized hole in about a half hour. I loosely applied a decorative window cling film to hold the glass in place until a repair person came out to replace the window later that day. The picture I have attached is from hours after the event and the placement of the film. I have ordered more film and am applying it on every basement window along with bars on the windows not visible from the street. It's all about layers of protection and visible deterrents. This burglar wasn't deterred by cameras or alarm warning signs, but the film slowed him down long enough to be scared off by other means. _______________________ Original Review: My home was burglarized a little over a month ago. The burglars gained entry by breaking a basement window. This caused us to improve our security. Once you are broken into you are very likely to be robbed again. We needed to reclaim our home and feel safe again. One of the many ways We did this was by putting this film on the basement windows and other windows that might tempt a burglar. Overall I would recommend this film because it is easy to install and provides some peace of mind. No security system is 100% effective, but this will at least slow any burglar down. Also we live in an Earthquake zone, this will help my family be safe from broken or falling glass, should the big one hit (knock wood). Pros: - I easily installed this myself, even though I have no real repair/handy type experience. I admit I am a little afraid of power tools. - I feel safer in my home. Cons: - Even though I felt I cleaned the glass really well before, there are still some streaks visible. I didn't see them before I put the film on. I don't know if this is installation error or the product. I have to really look to see them, especially since I put up a thin curtain. - There are still bubbles after a month. I thought I got all the bubbles out, but I guess I didn't. The directions say not to worry about tiny bubbles as they will go away after a month. Well some did, some didn't. Tips: - While the majority of this project is a one person job, but have someone there to help when peeling off the backing and placing the film against the window. If the piece is at all large, like for a standard window, it can be a little had to manage. Remember it comes rolled and wants to return to that position. Also, the film can also slip around a little when trimming. A second set of hands and eyes monitoring that while someone else is cutting may be handy. - Make sure the area is clean, not just the window, and you have your hair secured. I was putting this on back door and windows. I didn't make much of an effort to clean the area, just the window. Now there are a small flake of leaf debris stuck between the window and film on the door, and one of my hairs stuck between the film and a window. They aren't really noticeable to other people and they are in the back part of the house, but I see them every time. - The film does come with a cutting tool etc. They are okay, and will do he job. But be careful, I have a wavy film edge on one window where I learned the hard way. I then used a metal straight edge to trim the edges. Only I notice this, but again I notice this every time I see that window. - Also, be careful when cutting. My finger barely grazed the edge of the film and it sliced a little into my finger, like a bad paper cut. Hopefully, if someone tries to break into my house, they will see the hair, debris, wavy edge, bubbles and know that I put a security film on the window making it harder to break in. I know this is wishful thinking, but I'm a positive person.
Review: Feels like a solid product, hopefully it stands up to it's duties if called upon, installation a breeze. - I just purchased this window film and after a few days of procrastinating I finally put this on my windows. I put this on 4 smaller pane windows and a large sliding glass door, before I ordered I measured everything exactly as I would need and purchased the order for the appropriate amount, they gave me a bit of extra which was in case of minor screw ups and with the extra I was also able to put some film onto a small thinner window as well. Having some extra is a nice touch. While I hope to never need to test this film's strength out, I purchased it for protection from the elements, intruders, and also from my child who may decide one day to throw a ball at the window, for safety reasons you can imagine I don't want shards of glass falling everywhere with a toddler in the home. The film itself is nice, it feels very thick and sturdy. I'm hoping it holds up well in the long run. As for install, the kit comes with a plastic squeegee and a sharp cutting knife to cut the film, your own tools you will need are a spray bottle with some soap and water in it, measuring tape, a straight edge ruler, a pair of sharp scissors or if you have a straight cutting board tool that would definitely come in handy for this job. I have done minor tint jobs in the past on my car windows and with that I would say I have had some previous experience when it comes to installing tint on windows, however car glass is usually a little convex and that makes things very difficult, unless you have some weirdly shaped windows (circles, custom glass that curves) this shouldn't be too difficult to do. The most important thing is to make sure you have a clean work surface for the film and the glass you're applying it onto. I was able to have minimal dust and bubbles enter the film and most of it is because of keeping the glass very clean and very soapy during the entire installation. My advice is to measure your window, (measure twice cut once) and cut the film to the exact size of the window if you can cut very nice straight lines. I discovered this worked much better after half way through the job, it's rather difficult to trim the film once it is on the glass without causing it to get a bit dirty, also you can probably get straighter lines cutting it on a table than on the glass itself. Because the film is so thick and sturdy I wasn't as worried about the film crimping like the flimsy tint would do, just wet it, slide things around a bit and squeegee the water out. Work from the center with a vertical line down the middle than push water out towards the sides horizontally until you get all the water out. I would also recommend doing this at night or if it's not too hot but I prefer night as the water doesn't just evaporate on contact with the window, this gives you more time to reposition and squeegee. I hope this helps, and you have a good install, I feel like it's going to give me a bit more peace of mind that my windows are more secure, and if anything it'll buy me a few extra seconds to dial the authorities if anything were to happen.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Why does the film not stick to the window? / Why did the film fall off from the window a few hours later?**
A: There is a clear "backing liner" layer attached to the actual "film" layer. The backing liner covers the adhesive on the film so that the film does not prematurely stick. When you install the film, the backing liner needs to be peeled off from it.

**Q: Which of the two layers is the film, and which is the backing liner?**
A: The actual window film that you install is thicker than the backing liner, which would be removed and discarded when you install the film. The side of the film that the backing liner is covering has the sticky adhesive.

**Q: Which thickness should I get? / Should I use the 4 mil or the 8 mil?**
A: The 8 mil is stronger against impact, but the greater thickness makes it more difficult to install properly. The 4 mil is recommended if you mainly need a safety film, which holds shattered glass pieces together in case of glass breakage.

**Q: Why did bubbles (or spots where film is not adhering properly) form after the film was installed?**
A: This is due to the moisture left inside. The film may appear fine when installed, but afterwards, the water can interfere with the adhesive and cause bubbles to form. Apply firm pressure with the squeegee and push out the water to prevent bubbles.

**Q: Is the film applied on the interior or exterior side of the window?**
A: This film is intended for the interior side.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very good product so far
*by T***T on August 10, 2016*

So far I'm satisfied with this product. Pros: - 8mil: this is seriously thick. - one of the box was damaged and patched (I'm thinking by the shipping company), but everything was intact inside. Overall, good packaging. - comes with a nice rubberized squeegee card to help with application. Also comes with instructions, and a 'cutter'. - the box works perfectly to "unroll" the film. Think big wrapping paper rolls around christmas-time in department stores. It's the same idea: 2 plastic supports in the box let you unroll the plastic without removing it from the box. This is very helpful to cut it right... - extra quantity. I didn't check carefully, but I think there was clearly some extra length on the rolls (I bought the same film in 3 different sizes). - transparency looks fine, at least for now. - good "peel as you install" system. Read the instructions and do not forget to peel :-) Cons: - hard to install. Not specific to this brand/model, but 8 mil film is really thick. - I still have a few "bubbles" (not really bubbles, but small pockets of water I didn't push out). I'll see if they go out over time or if I should work on it. - it's just a film. Without ways to anchor it to the frame (glue or other), this will not prevent the glass from breaking "clean" on the edges of the window. - I think to be security film, it needs to pass some falling ball test with some size/weight/repetitions... I'm not sure this passed these tests. i.e. is this certified by an independent company? That said, you might get what you pay for, but this is so much cheaper than going with some high-end 3M film that requires professional installation... So not wanting to pay more than a replacement window price just to get a safety film on some old windows, this might actually be a positive... Installation tips: - use lots of soapy water (6-10 drops of clear liquid soap per 16 oz of water in a spray bottle). I had a "Gila" spray kit from some previous window films I used, but do your own with water and soap work as well. - clean, clean, clean your windows. I did 2 clean with window cleaner (dry each time), 1 heavy rinse with pure water. dry with microfiber cloth (no lint). scrape with razor blades (for utility knifes), rinse again with water. then soapy water, and install the film (from the top of the windows for me) - plan a lot more time than you think it will take. - decide if you will go for perfection or good enough. Perfection will take huge amounts of time. - it really helps if you have the experience of installing some window film (usually not that thick) before. [update 11/22/2016] The film was pretty strong. I got a window broken (weed whacker + small stone), and to remove the entire window pane (that was a dual-pane window with the outside pane broken), I tried to break the inside pane of glass that had the film on it. Kicking didn't work at all. And it took many full force blow with a carpenter hammer to break the glass. The film stayed intact all around. Once broken, I was able to kick it out from the edges, and remove the entire broken pane of glass still attached to the plastic film, and put it in the trash. So from that experience, I'd say the film worked very well. If the film could be put safely from the outside (without possibility to peel it off), the protection would be quite incredible.
