Frequently Asked Questions - Residential/Commercial Tinting
Will window film affect my views?
No. 3M window films significantly reduce or eliminate glare which will allow better clarity. The non-reflective properties of these films result in better views from the inside at night.
What are the benefits of 3M Window Films?
You will still enjoy natural light but don’t have to suffer from the heat. 3M films block most of the harmful infrared light and UV rays that can cause health problems. Window films can lower your energy costs during the warm and cold seasons. This lessens the stress on your HVAC system which can now last longer.
Why is my window film blurry or cloudy?
This typically happens immediately after installation. Water pockets form between the film and the glass, creating the effect. This is temporary as after a few days the water evaporates and the film will fully stick to the glass.
Better techniques in installation now exist, avoiding the blurriness altogether. One method is the use of heat lamps. The effect is immediate as you will have clear views after installation.
Ask potential installers on their methods so you can avoid problems like this.
