can this be installed by a professional? Looks like a diy would be too difficult

[@1swttl]

Any professional "window tint installer" can install this easily.

[@mehrabedini4103]

It was useful for me. Thanks.

[@annette5362]

Is it easy to remove because I rent?

[@1swttl]

Easily removed...its sort of a"big sticker". You just peel it off the glass when you move.

[@kalabell4098]

Could I use this on/ in my car?

[@1swttl]

You can, but you don’t want to roll your windows up and down or else it causes the material to come off over time

[@illwill5215]

So I dont have to actually put it on the window because of apt rental window or just to make it faster I'm thinking about just taping it to the sides of the wall around the window and leave the see through curtain closed over it like a shied. Use it more like a window shield than actually taping it to the window. Would that work?

[@mariabaz2024]

this is exactly what i need...is this the White One-Way Daytime Privacy film ? is this the product number BWPRG40HD...when i asked my local dealer to order he said he only saw BWPR"W"40HD is that the same? He didn't have samples and I want to make sure to order this exact product/film...thank you Mr. Le!

[@contravisionTV]

Hi Maria, please drop me an email [e-mail] with your contact details and location and I'll make sure one of sales team gets in touch.

Does it provide any privacy at night? I would guess not

[@1swttl]

Unfortunately, there is no product on the market that provides privacy day and night AND allows you to see out of.

Wait tommy lee?

[@1swttl]

🤣 the music industry is tough…

[@NikeChecksHtx]

Lmao

[@illwill5215]

Does this permanently stick to the window or does it come on and off for people living in apts?

[@1swttl]

This is a removable product. However, If you're installing this on a large SINGLE PANE glass, I would advise that you use a heatgun/blow dryer when you go to remove it to assist in the removal. Cutting the material with a sharp razor blade/xacto knife into smaller "strips" will also make it easier to remove.

[@illwill5215]

Also is there a curtain version of this that would be better? Like a see through lace curtain or see through thin curtain on one side with this material on the back

[@1swttl]

Using a "white lace" curtain is somewhat similar because the white "reflects" the light, making it more difficult to see inside. Of course the clarity / view thru of looking through lace vs looking through the Contra Vision HD Privacy window film will be completely different.

Could you use water to apply, then squeegee it out like you use with window tint? Seems like it would be easier.

[@1swttl]

Hi Carly…I would not suggest it. When you’re tinting a window, the film is solid and you can literally see where all the water solution is and you can squeegee it in one direction to get all the water solution out. If you use a water solution when installing perforated film, it is VERY difficult to see where all the water solution is. You would think that it would just come out from where all the perforations are, but that’s usually not the case.

[@carlyg7322]

@@1swttl that makes sense, in my head the perf was a solid sheets with dots on it....so it looked perforated but wasn't actually. Duh I'm thinking of putting it on my home windows. My thought is if the white is facing out, it won't attract the sun in the first place. Now its tinted, but the sun just beats in all day, as if it's not helping at all. Thoughts?

[@illwill5215]

How big are the sheets?
