Default Privacy Film


wrote in message ...
I would like to put privacy film on my sliding glass doors.
This stuff lets you look out but looks like a mirror to those looking
in.
Problem is they are each 4 feet wide and the only film I can find is 3
feet wide.
Anyone know of 4 foot wide film or some other way to do it.
Or has anyone been able to use 3 foot wide film successfully?

TIA

Lou



I bought a 4' x 14' roll of Gila Film at Lowe's about a month ago. Cost
about $40.

Been using it on standard window glass for many years. The literature on
the product indicates it should be OK for heavier glass. Better have a
helper for installing that four foot width. It's very thin and needs four
hands to keep it from bunching up when separating the film from its backer
sheet and moving it to the glass. You might want to check the price of
professional installation. It's not as easy to install as the enclosed
instructions say.
