I need to make a semi-transparent mirror for scientific project. I wonder if just pouring 1/2 of the solutions per same sq.ft. will make it half semi-transparent.

hello angle is spray silver and hydrochome spray any diffrence in opticle performence ? and is hydrochrom good as for front surface mirror ? and use for opticle instruments?

I have a mirror with yellowing that won’t go away with any sort of cleaning. I’ve tried quite a few suggestions I’ve found. Will re-silvering it get rid of the yellow?

super, very clear, thanks.

Does your multistrip work on acrylic mirrors? Most acrylic mirror sheets have a similar backing that is blue or grey. Removing these backings is essentially turning these into first surface mirrors! I've been using isopropyl to remove that backing, but it doesnt always work that well.

Here is another supplier showing their process on a smaller part (helmet). This is a lot more basic but I’m guessing the products snd steps are the same. I think 3M makes the materials

Around the 13:30 mark. So in the chance an area wasn't "clean enough" and the mirror did not take to that portion, what would you suggest as a means to correct this? I have a spot right in the middle of the glass and have used over half of the 3 solutions provided in the kit. Thank you

How can i buy this ?

How do you discard the extra chemicals?

Magical how the reflective surface suddenly materializes

t=827s take that bullshit off the web address to make it start at the begining! Great vid. I started refinishing a mirror and failed to look at the actual mirror closely. As you can guess, it has the flaws you mentioned. I am glad to hear there is an economical way to deal with that given most of my work done on the frame is done already.

if you remove the black paint and do not remove the silver can you place a screen behind it and see it through the mirror?

Hi, your website seems to be down now.

Wher i kind find tbe material i use

❤❤❤

Thank you for this! Are there safety measures we need to take when handling this chemical? Respiration masks/ filters to avoid breathing in the gases?

distilled or deionized water?

Short story. I inherited a dresser. I have a picture of my grandma standing on it. She appears 2-3 yrs old, born in 1913. The dresser was owned by her dad prior to marrying her mother. Dresser age 112 +. I attempted to resilver 20 years ago. Found one place locally. One old guy there did it, there was a waiting list. He retired with me still waiting. Found another shop, 300 miles one way. Iwould have to leave my mirror. I wasn't comfortable with that. NOW I DISCOVER I CAN PULL THIS OFF MYSELF! Thank you Thank Thank you. I have a few This will be so rewarding. I had given up hope. I was researching mirror film. LOL. I found your video instead! Even if not perfect, much better than what I have now. I want to look in the same mirror that my grandma did as a child. I'm pretty handy, but wish me luck!

For a moment there I thought you had found a way to develop an actual chromium coating. I was prepared to be blown away, since aqueous chromium is so hazardous and you guys have such high standards for safety. Oh well. Maybe another time you’ll thoroughly surprise me. You’ve done it before :3 keep up the good work! I’m glad to see you innovating for the model-making and cosplay community. This looks really accessible ❤

Should you use mask 😷 while spraying and other chemical process? Or is it fine with those chemicals? 🤔

Where can we buy the kit?

Thank you!

Great video but all links are dead 😞

Great video. I watched a man make mirror in his shed he didn't have a kit but it the chemicals and not the Krylon stuff which cannot get ATM. Are these kits available worldwide do you supply overseas or have stockists? Could you just buy a piece of glass and do this, and is there a thickness in the glass you need. I was looking at turning glass from picture frames into mirror too.

Does the silver solution have a shelf-life?

How do you work out how much silver nitrate per sq ft of glass so the solution doesn’t become depleted of silver

❤❤❤❤

How

Does it work on alluminum plated mirrors?

Is this process done any differently when silvering glue chipped glass?

If you would ever re-do the video, it would be nice if you would take 2 seconds and CAREFULLY show each product that you use in each step. Definitely interesting !

Very informative video. I have a mirror that only has a few very thin scratches on the back. I'd like to repair the scratches without resilvering the whole mirror. Is there such a thing as a resilvering pen that I could use to paint over the scratches?

I have a large mirror with only small areas along edges. Will I have to strip the entire mirror or can I just repair the mirror edges?

Hello Angel, I am sending a message from Iran, can you send me the recipe and ingredients for Fantachrome?

I would like to do this, but my mirror is 1.60m tall and I feel that i can't do it at home

Wow. Thanks, bit after watching this, I won't be doing this on a big bathroom mirror from a house we bought. New mirror it is...sadly.

Can you make a 2-way mirror with this kit?

Is it possible to only resilver something like edges where the silver is peeling? I jave a roughly 3x3 mirror with 2-3inch edge peeling. Is the process necessary for the whole mirror?

I purchased mirrors from Amazon. Yes it took off the black. But it went as far as seeing another mirror on the side that i took off the black. What did I do wrong? I didn't even see the silver. Is there a room temp?"

I've always wondered how resilverina a mirror was done. One question, I have a blue tinted morror, kand am wontering how is that different than the process you show? Thank you

Your video is great, can we purchase this tool on your wesite?

Something I don't understand do you need to protect the front of the glass to prevent the mirror effect on both sides

Great video. Very informative and your descriptios were extremely helpful.

The 3 colored mirror with red looked really cool! Excellent job.

So far I don’t see any information I can use. You don’t tell us what you’re spraying on there first.

Great tutorial, thank you. Regarding the backing paint - what is it exactly? I am currently refinishing a vanity with a gold backed mirror. Curious to know what I can do to protect the original reflective material before re-assembling the mirror into the refinished frame.

So, my old mirrors are small and made to sit on a surface. They have felt glued on the back. How do you get the felt off?
