  • I show how to make custom fit 5 layer Reflectix insulated light blocking privacy stealth window cover inserts that are easily removed and stored in your camper, can be made for any car, van or RV. I incorporate a layer of static air space between two Reflectix layers to boost R-value which can even reduce window condensation and from the outside they just look like tinted windows.

    Your tutorials are excellent. Very smart methods and tricks! I really appreciate that you don't just make the tutorial on your first attempt but test things out, learn from it and then make a tutorial that mentions all the pitfalls. One suggestion for the tape going around the edges. There is a tape that has a velvet/felt like surface. It's great to get smooth edges and makes it easy to install and taking them back out.

    This is fabulous! Your duct tape tip for testing the fit of the corrugated piece is GREAT!!

    where do you put all of these when it’s not cold? I have a 13ft. RV with limited storage.

    I might suggest using cork as your air space seal both sides with contact paper also a better sound barrier

    How has the duct tape and glue held up in heat? I'm making one to lay flat on my back dashboard of my car so its going to get direct sun for hours everyday in the driveway. And what about the smell of the tape and glue inside vehicle?

  • @loannekuller2325

    In taping the edges, if I had to piece the reflects for the size window I have and have a seam I’m thinking I need to duct tape those to create a seal so air does not get In, correct?

      When you say apply. Do you mean affix to or just up against. I have a 2001 BigFoot camper with dual plane windows can I use this method or not

      Yes! I did an updated series of videos for campers - having more square windows. A bit easier way. Just look through my video list. It is a 3 part series.

    • @pnwbackcountrygrandpa6906
      @pnwbackcountrygrandpa6906 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I saw a comment from one of your viewers that said not to use on dual pane windows. Can you please direct me in the right direction

    Forget the glue gun. Use double sided tape.

      Very few people realize how terrible regular store bought hotglue is.. I have nightmare stories about failings of hotglue over long term use.
