4.0 out of 5 stars Great stuff, can be tricky to cut but easy to apply and remove, June 15, 2009

This is great stuff. It's very easy to apply and the application process is very forgiving. Just clean your windows, spray on a soap and water mixture, peel the backing and apply. You can re-position it to get it just right and the use a credit card to get the water out from under the film.

It looks great. Very professional. And it's easy to remove.

It is rather tough to cut though. The roll is 36 x 72 and if you are cutting long pieces it can be tricky to get straight lines. I used a carpenter's T but I still messed up a bit.

The following comment is not about the product but about Amazon's packaging. I also didn't deduct stars for this:

The packaging is extremely wasteful. The roll itself is packaged in a rectangular plastic box but Amazon put that box in a massive box that could literally have held maybe 100 rolls. The box was stuffed with paper to take up the extra room.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent for privacy, June 2, 2010

I live in a grad student rental on the main floor of an old house. My largest window looks out onto my neighbor's driveway and house. My neighbor is a chronic snoop, which means I felt weird having my curtains open.

So, this window film does the job. In daylight it looks very nice and professional. Though I thought I got all the bubbles out, I can see small bubbles in this stuff by lamplight. Applying this film by yourself is possible, but mine would have come out more cleanly if I'd had another set of hands so that I could start right in the middle without having to hold up a corner. Also, it's a good idea to cut this to a rough size of your window but ensure that it's a tad bigger, then cut down the edges with an xacto knife once you've got the film in place.

After I bought and used this, I learned that you can apply almost any sort of fabric to a window using a corn starch and water solution. A friend and I tried the fabric method at her place and, hate to admit it, it's easier to apply, too. If you're poor, go for corn starch and fabric.

I wanted to let some light in but get privacy- this stuff is great. I was daunted about installing it, but it was easy. Recommend a straight edged cutter rather than a scissor to cut, but I did five windows in about an hour. LOVE IT!
