I like the idea of the film.


Film is okay. Some cases it will cause the glass to break, voiding the
warranty on the window. Minor details.


If you're worried about it breaking the glass, apply it to a piece of Lexan
and put it in the window.


You don't even need lexan, which is a very strong version of plexiglas
or whatever the generic name is. It's used for football helmets. YOu
can use the weakest and probably the cheapest version of opaque
plastic. Every city has a plastic store, and some sell left over
pieces fwiw from projects they make for customers.
