Window Film and Tint FAQs
Q. Will window film break my windows?
A. No - installing window film will not break your windows. When window film is installed it does cause your window to increase in temperature adding additional stress, however, the majority of window films are safe and offer a manufacturer's glass break guarantees.
Q. Will window film stop fading?
A. Most people associate fading with ultraviolet light so it's easy to assume that a window film that rejects 99% of the UV rays could eliminate fading. However, heat, visible light, and interior spot lights are also contributing factors. Ask our Solar Solutions Specialists for their recommendations.
Q. I just had film installed on my windows and there are some bubbles - What is that caused by?
A. Solargard window film is installed with a wetting solution and it takes time for the water to evaporate. The time can vary from 30 to 140 days depending on the thickness and the outside temperature. All films, when professionally installed, are warrantied against peeling, bubbling, and cracking.
Q. Can I get a privacy window film that gives me privacy at night?
A. A highly reflective film will give you privacy where the lighting is situated. For example, during the day, the light is usually greater on the outside and darker on the inside so you would have daytime privacy. At night, when the lights are on in the inside and it's dark outside, you will have the reverse effect -- you WILL NOT be able to see out and people from outside WILL be able to see in. If it's a rainy day and you have lights on inside, you may have EQUAL visibility.
Q. What about the office buildings downtown - they have privacy all the time?
A. That's what most people think because they usually see those buildings during the day, but next time you are down there take a look at night to see if anyone is burning the midnight oil and you will be able to see into the office.
Q. How do I clean the windows after the film is applied?
A. Use a soft cloth and mild soapy water. Do not use anything abrasive.
Q. My window cleaner scratched my film - can it be patched?
A. If you patched it, it would look like a patch. The film should be removed and replaced.
