How to Tint HOME Windows | Mirror Tint

[@xchrysantha]

Watching you pull the backing with your teeth was SUPER relatable🤣 But thank you so much for this tutorial!!! I live right in front of our neighborhood clubhouse which has a camera facing directly into my room, so I can never have my blinds fully open - which absolutely sucks because my room is small and I need sunlight. I didn't even know this film was an option, but your video RANDOMLY showed up on my feed AND NOW I KNOW AND WILL BE DOING THIS TOMORROW. Thank you!!!!!💕💕💕

[@TintHubX]

Thank you for the feedback! And im glad this video helped someone.

[@Yolezevahc]

Came for the education, subscribed because of the outro 😂😂😂😂

[@pilau]

same LOL!

[@KcazP1]

ive seen that outro somewhere before

[@ooopticnerveee]

I really wish I watched this before I did a gigantic window in my house 😂 great tips! I especially like your method of cutting the corners off before cutting the film to the window.

[@nigelbryant5932]

Omg , you made it look so easy. I had to take 4 attempts to do mine. Great job

[@TintHubX]

Practice makes perfect! Im glad you got it done though!

[@gav6808]

I usually line up the top and one edge that way you only have to cut twice.

[@RightySnipeZ]

That outro scared me for a sec 😂

[@isaactravisiii2761]

I wasn’t paying attention to the name when press play on video. But at the end of the video I learnt asap. It’s currently 2:48am 😂😂

[@Hemond1]

How does this work at night? If your interior light is on in your room at night? Can people outside see inside through the film?

[@peteryeung111]

Yes they can. But I see he’s got some blinds too.

[@TintHubX]

The side with the brightest light will be the mirror finish.

[@slapskate]

I have a large horizontal rectangular window the size of a wall. When super clean birds constantly fly into it because the reflection. This seems like it would be worse since it would be a mirror all day. The sound a bird makes when flying into your window at full speed when you're just chilling watching tv is crazy!

[@GlitterMaffiaMobBoss]

My front door has two large glass panels that are etched with a design and would like to know if the mirror tint would work. The best layout of my furniture puts my couch right in view of the windows..great during the day but at night I feel weird..any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies..lol I've been here 10 years but for some reason it's just now bothering me..maybe I just need a new door?

[@violetarocho8991]

I have a door insert with gold in it if I put this on will the gold show thru?

[@LadyLavender-f3u]

How about applying film on both sides of glass?

[@broncoBACON]

i made the mistake of using a nicked/gouged plastic squeegee. It scratched up my windows. Didn't even notice till the job was done. Check your squeegee edges!

[@ReganousTheGrey]

Great video! Have a question... A local store has the roll sizes of 17.5 x 78.7 or 23.6 x 78.7. If My window is 45 inch tall 58 inch wide, which size roll of window film should I get? Thank you!

[@TintHubX]

It really depends where you want the seem to be. Me personally I would look for a film roll big enough to cover the whole window in one piece.

[@davidshred6540]

Before after from outside?

[@ShiverPlumbingTN]

Stainless steel blades ? I had hard time cutting film w new box cutter blades as well as knife in kit w break off blades . 1 film was Gila other was real thick removable film . You buy different blades ? Looking for day and night privacy film is that possible?

[@TintHubX]

The mirror effect is on the side with the brightest light. I put a parts list in the description.

[@OnlyGetOneLife]

I’ve going to move into a place with dual glass windows… can I safely use privacy films on them?

[@TintHubX]

Always follow your film manufacture’s “film to glass chart”. Or have a professional do the work if you are unsure.

[@OnlyGetOneLife]

@ humph… thanks for your reply. both not really an option. What’s the worst case scenario if I just feel the fear and do it anyway …

[@TintHubX]

@@OnlyGetOneLife glass could crack. Or seal failure of the dual pane glass.

[@mariannatheron7363]

Hi there, at home the bathroom window and sliding door is tinted inside. Tonight I welcomed a guest, I put on the light of the bathroom, and the opposite happened. I could not see outside and from outside I could look inside??Any advice??

[@TintHubX]

The mirror effect will be on the side with the brightest light. Cheap simple fix is a curtain. Or get a flood light on the outside of the window that will be brighter than the interior light and make sure it is on at night.

[@mariannatheron7363]

@@TintHubX thanx for the response. Got this solution from CHATGPT: Privacy Window Film: Privacy films, such as frosted or decorative films, provide privacy regardless of the time of day. They blur or block visibility from the outside while still allowing natural light to filter in.

[@toonnut1]

This video is top class thanks

[@skitziey4619]

Question, I get this is a new video but how did you get the drivers and anything else to link with dingi cut as you mentioned you used before core with the sc2 53in.

[@TintHubX]

Call your software provider. So if it is digicut, give them a call they will have to install special drivers for it to connect properly.

[@skitziey4619]

@@TintHubX do you know of any that are just plug and play?

[@TintHubX]

@@skitziey4619 not that I know of. I use core. 10 minute phone call and it was connected.

[@xx_killer-918_xx8]

Hello my friend How much do you charge for for house window?

[@TintHubX]

@@xx_killer-918_xx8 it depends on the size of the project and type of film being used. Most places will charge anywhere from 9-15$ per sq ft.

[@weep4me]

Just did my front window with this kind of film, it has a hundreds of horrible looking small bubbles and looks not so nice from the outside. Will these disappear. ? Thay don't appear to be air bubbles

[@TintHubX]

Sounds like contamination. If the film touches dirt or you did not clean properly you will get contamination.

[@HandyHoneyBunnyLLC]

What window tint would you recommend for homes to block the sun and heat? What do you use as a pro? Thanks for the video

[@TintHubX]

I use kepler and Geoshield. But there is a lot of good brands. Maybe ill make a video soon of all the quality films on the market.

[@TintHubX]

If you don’t want the mirror effect and just heat rejection you can opt for a ceramic film. Make sure it is for flat glass and not for automotive. They are different.

[@HandyHoneyBunnyLLC]

@@TintHubX thanks for replying

[@HandyHoneyBunnyLLC]

@@TintHubX What is the frame on top of the ladder used for to cut the tint to the right size? thanks..

[@Carnation8369]

I did follow directions and application was easy but there are so many steaks and spots on the window now. They look dirty and streaked? Any ideas?

[@TintHubX]

Give it a couple of days. Contamination looks like small dots or small bubbles. Streaks could be the way you pushed the water out.

[@Carnation8369]

@@TintHubXthank you! I’ll give it another try 😊

[@tommyalexander9119]

What film do you use

[@TintHubX]

Geoshield

[@dylansilva8530]

Where do you recommend buying film? Also, I have double pane windows, will I need a special film?

[@TintHubX]

I use geoshield and kepler. I do own a business Idk if they sell to the regular public. Try contacting them directly.

[@izzy3355]

Windows with reflective tint should come with a disclaimer of how many DEAD birds you will be picking up. And nooo the sticker decals do not work.

[@flightrue5794]

Shut upppp😂 this isn’t gonna kill any birds

[@katyharris2773]

The stickers had to be adapted haha

🤣🤣🤣

[@claudiaatenco4687]

How to prepare the shampoo. ???

[@TintHubX]

Check out my reels I have a video showing the mixture and soap used. Depending on weather conditions it can vary slightly.

[@Lisa-lq8xz]

If you tint you house windows, put decals on them or birds will fly into them.

[@ahmedkunna2485]

Please someone tell me what the machine he’s using to cut the film called.

[@TintHubX]

Google - “72" window film handler” should pop up

[@PEACEofGOD2day]

What brand film

[@KeziahMaz]

What color did you use, silver or black?

[@TintHubX]

For the mirror effect you need silver or dual reflective film. Keep in mind the mirror will be on the side with the brightest source of light.

[@ahmedkunna2485]

I searched for the film cutter he uses still no luck!!

[@kelloncupid]

Simple and to the point hum

Thank you

[@eduardoaldaba]

Can i use car window tint for my home window?

[@TintHubX]

Its not recommended. Due to heat absorption. Wrong film on home windows can lead to the glass cracking.

[@eduardoaldaba]

@@TintHubX I already installed on my home 10 windows , about what time should I change before they want to crack?

[@eduardoaldaba]

@@TintHubX I don't have the budget right now to buy home window tint

[@TintHubX]

@@eduardoaldaba its not Forsure they will crack. Its just a possibility. Professional installers follow a film to glass chart to avoid problems like cracking or seal failure.

[@eduardoaldaba]

@@TintHubXawesome thanks for the advice, what brand film you recommend to use for home?

[@emiluchiha]

Works at night?

[@TintHubX]

The side with the brighter light will create the mirror effect. To combat this effect at night you can add a flood light on the outside. Also Dual Reflective film works better.

[@atomicboomstick2543]

You didn't show us how it looked on the outside when finished...

[@ColinAtkins-j3h]

You can see in at night !!

[@TintHubX]

The side with the brighter light will always reflect. You can always add a flood light on the outside to help with that issue at night.

[@bernardbuster6617]

Can you post a link to the tint you were using?

[@TintHubX]

I use geoshield and kepler film. Those are professional films. Im not sure they offer to regular customers. You can always check their website. I am a business so it’s a little bit different for me.

[@Komrad_Yuri]

Theyre nice but I miss my natural light.

[@TintHubX]

You can always opt for a lighter shade and retain more natural light. But the mirror effect will be less noticeable.

[@davestevens4193]

Do not apply to double pane windows with LowE coatings.

[@gallardo360]

I've had it on my back windows on my home for over 15yrs zero problems in direct sun 6hrs of the day

[@weep4me]

The low E coating is inside the unit, so no problem

[@MK67934]

It ruined my double windows I added them to

[@JaTool]

Too much PHub. Nice job though

[@randomthoughtstoday]

Wayyy too much work for a rookie..😂

Probably a stupid question, but Is tint ever applied on the outside of sliding door glass?
