How does he only have 193 subs I don’t know what your doing if your not subbed to him
Musheer gotta start somewhere 😋

@@violetpurrpelle7131 yeaaaaa
He did some stuff wrong, so dont sub just because of this video. There are better guides. e.g. He just described it as 'soapy water', when it is quite important what type of soapy water you use. It is recommended you use baby shampoo not dish soap for example. Baby shampoo dries clear, many other soaps dont. Also depending on the film you use, other soaps can react with the adhesive in the film. I know he said this film didnt have any, but many do. It's also recommended to only wet the center of the window not the whole window as that can drag dirt out of the corners before you have the film in place. He also fitted it the wrong way around if you go by what is shown. I think (hope) he flipped it around off camera. There are quite a lot of things missing from this guide. I would recommend people watch a few others and dont only use this.
WARNING! This is a very helpful video! And I was VERY happy with the outcome....but NOTE. at 7:58 he actually peels the backing off from the side facing him though he is clear just before that the side with the backing is the side that adheres to the glass. I repeat: The side with the backing on it is the side that adheres to the window after the backing is removed! I didn't notice his written addendum - I just followed the video and doing it as it appeared he did - peeling the backing off from the side facing him - and it was a really hard to get the bubbles out as it was a large glass door. I wrote the company to confirm the correct method (who has great customer service by the way) and I was able to remove it and reapply. SO MUCH EASIER!
It's a little hard to tell, but if you watch closely, he pulls the backing down BETWEEN the film and the window. He installed it correctly.
It did appear at first that he pulled the clear protective film as facing him; However, after expanding the view, it was on the inside facing the window. It was done fast and only appeared to be facing him. So, he did it right and the protective side was facing the window.
Thank you for keeping it straight & simple instead of wasting half an hour talking about YOU, YOUR CHANNEL, YOUR MAKEUP etc etc and just getting straight to the point. I’ve just purchased some Rabbitgoo for my new house, and your video makes it less daunting to do. Thanks a million. You now have one more new subscriber ❤
The QR code is broken on the box but the one on the instructions works. But watch this video instead!! Much more clear description! Than you !!!
Thanks I hope it turned out good !
Andre Bhagwandat better and easier than we thought!!
My husband was not aware of the inside instructions until we watched your video. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you so much for showing what it looked like from the Outside! I just watched 6 other videos trying to find a shot of that! I’m hoping to keep my creepy neighbor at bay! 👍🏽
Hope it's worked! 😊
Ew, sorry to hear that
so true! even on amazon ppl only show how it looks frm the inside, it was really hard to find anyone who posted what it looks like frm the outside
The comment i was looking for... im moving into a co-op and was thinking about doing this on my sunroom but I mainly wanted it for light refraction more than privacy. They want the building to still look uniform so no political signs/flags etc. Also I was looking at the rainbow one instead of the regular frosted film
I came here for an instruction video about window film and I get an entertaining as hell guy to explain it. I'm subbing lol.
When you pulled the plastic off, it was on the front... I think you installed it on the wrong side. The sticker should have been on the back, the part that goes on the window right? That's how I installed mine.
Thank you for posting this! I had to put up a privacy film after learning my neighbor is a peeping Tom, and this video actually made it a pleasant experience. Much gratitude!
Your intro is almost exactly what happened to me. Taking laundry basket up made eye contact with my neighbor getting in their car. Now I'm here thanks for the video man really helpful 🙏🏼
Lol it’s a real life problem, glad you enjoyed
My kitchen window is facing my neighbours, if we are doing dishes same time we try to avoid eye contact 😅
Thanks for this! The tip about better trimming the corner was my saving grace today - kept me patient and did better than I would have without this
Doing mine right now!! I wouldn’t have been able to without your video. Thanks so much. I got it on sale on Amazon.
TheNikTom let me know how it goes and if you like it!
Great video! Any suggestions for parts of the edge that just won’t stay down??
Good choice in music. Caught myself jamming to it a bunch of times while watching the tutorial
Thank you 😊
Thanks so much. My son came over yesterday to install mine. There was no tab on the corner to help with peeling. It took FOREVER and was very frustrating. Our directions just said "Water" no soap. Seemed to work pretty well...Need a squeegee though.
A, I love your intro. It reminds me of when someone knocks on my door and I stay perfectly still until they go away lol. B, I love your shirt. C, thank you for your video it is better.
I made the cuts to my privacy film last night when I was tired because I just wanted to get it done which was a mistake. Fortunately I had cut enough overhang to straighten my cuts using my L square and chopping mat. I have a plastic piece that screws into the inside part of the window which looks like you have in the beginning of your video when you have everything out on the table showing the tools you will need. That helped with one of my pieces since I needed to cit 2 vertical pieces dur to the direction of the pattern.
I am a new first time very ambitious home owner. A single girl who looks towards TH-cam for help with anything I need regarding small upgrades for now and fixing some minor thing like taring my flange on my roof to stop a leak and other small things. My neighbors think I was crazy using an 8’ ladder and hoisting myself up a few feet to get up there lol. Im a little nuts sometimes but I did it without falling off the roof so kudos for me lol. Sometimes I think WHAT WAS I THINKING BUYING A FIXER UPPER! But, it sure beats renting finally I have PRIVACY.
I’m definitely subscribing to your channel and I appreciate the video. I will be checking out more of them soon. Now if only I had a garage or a shed so I could buy a miter saw and a chop saw for other projects after my kitchen remodel cleaned me out. I bought this small house cash so I wouldn’t have a mortgage. Hopefully I will be able to buy a shed come spring so I can get some upgrades done since the prior owner had the cheapest materials available 🤦♀️. Thanks a bunch. Keep on keepin on!
This is exactly why I made this video, for anyone that’s a new home owner trying to do the little things I’m so glad you found it useful and good luck with the rest of the house
OMG....this video made installation so easy...I ordered some film from Amazon before I even seen this video....when I was ready to put it up I TH-camd diy videos and I’m so glad I found your video....I was able to put mine up with no problem.
This is the first tutorial I’ve watched on this product after getting it off Amazon for my playroom/downstairs bathroom windows and it’ll be the only one I need! PERFECT tutorial! Thank you 🙏🏻
I couldn't get the video instructions on the box to work. So glad you uploaded yours!!
Thank you so much for your demonstration. Was very easy to understand. Ty so much. Mines come today. I can't read instructions because my eyes are not good but watching your video on my laptop was easy.. ty ❤️
This video is the most helpful one out there.
Some additional pointers not covered:
- if you’re installing a large piece (eg: a picture window) it’s best to have two people to install to help straighten and position.
- if you have furry pets, I don’t know what to tell you. I cleaned the windows very throughly, but because the film uses static to adhere, the short walk from the table to the window still caught many air-bound bits of our dog’s fur that were then trapped between the film and the glass.
- I wasn’t sure how opaque the film would be, but apart from light passing through, neither myself or my sharp-eyed, barky dogs see no movement. Definitely feels private and peaceful to sit next to the window in all different light levels.
Great, simple directions-thank you! Got mine done and it looks great.
Andre! Great video! You’re super chill, cool guy & really thorough. Thanks!
Hahahahaha that intro!! Was not expecting that
Done this today on two big windows thanks to this video. Top man! Thank you 👊🏽
Thank you for the demo. Just got my Rabbitgoo from Amazon. Will try it out today.
Thank you for the clear, concise instructions! Great product.
Excellent and thorough tutorial, Andre. I just installed my Rabbitgoo window film effortlessly thanks to you. Much appreciated!
Awesome 😊 the film makes such a difference
Lol the intro 😂 it's 100% how I feel on the windows I'm using this on though, so 👌
Thank you so much your tips were super helpful and I was able to install it on 4 big windows today by myself!
Thank you very much for the great tutorial. I put my film up alongside of you and it came out great!
Exactly..... meaaure 4×'s. ...cut twice! Nicely done, vid, bro! Appreciate you!
Certified Toronto Man! Respect for the video!
After your video, it worked. When I first read the directions, I was like ... whaaaat?! So thanks!
Thanks a bunch for this video it really helped. Also really appreciate you putting to Canadian link no one else does that 😅
Ive ordered some mirror film so ill be using this vid as a base on what to do . Thanks for the vid!
Okay, I feel like I can do this and not mess up now hahaha THANKS!
Have this exact same window film Going to get a small squeegee instead of using a credit card as originally planned. Thankyou for the demo 👍
omg, I forgot to peel off the backing! Geeze! Thank you very much!
Dude, I don't usually comment, but let's just say I had to like and comment this video!
Thank you for sharing, was really helpful! 👍🏻we didn’t know the introductions was inside, lol 😝
Thank you for this... I needed to watch this before making start. Now I need to work out how to apply it carefully with 2 toddlers running around... or i wait till Sunday for the hubby to do it ! 😄
Lol! No problem 😉
Loved your simple explanation-successful install!
Excellent, it’s what I want for long time, I have same window door and two panel at each side.👍🏻🙂
I just received mine from Amazon today and will install it tomorrow. Thanks for the vid!
Creative intro scene and good instructions- thanks
I got a roll for $1 at an Amazon Bin shop today. No instructions came with it. But I think I can do it now. Wish there had been another roll though
WOW! Thank you so much for this Andre!!!!
Funny in the beginning 😆. Great video! Caught a peeper🙄
Great tutorial thank you so much! I'm a new subscriber, I just purchased this same privacy window film from Amazon tonight, I'll be getting it on Monday and watching your video before I put it on and during. Incidentally could u be any finer?? DAYUM😊 hope that wasn't inappropriate but I couldn't help myself LOL
Haha glad you enjoyed and it helped
Great tutorial!! I’ve just done my window. Thank you so much 👍🏾👏🏾
hey thanks for making the video was enjoyable and fun, congrats on the new build btw... quick question i didn't quite catch which side goes onto the glass, the side where you peeled off... mine has a smooth side and a rough side, i did one panel yesterday and like you i soaped both sides of the film looked soapy first but once it dried it was fine but still want sure which side goes onto the window the smooth side or rough one, or better the side you peel off or the other side
Samer A yup you got it the side that you peeled off should be on the glass it’s the more tacky side, so the smooth side . Thanks for the support 🙏
Thanks for posting this. I just got some of this brand. It was easy to find your video and very helpful to see the process.
I think you put the wrong side on the glass...you even said @8:07 this is the side you want to put on the glass, then you put the wrong side on the glass. The protector film is so dirt, dust, etc does not get on the side of the film that goes towards the window.
One…I had no idea where this was going when I saw the laundry intro.
Two…I have been calling it Rabbit Goo. Like gooey goo.
I suscribed ❤❤ you relaxed me so much and i needed to see the instructions in action tytyty
Great video, thanks for posting it. What is the soap to water ratio in the spray bottle?
Maybe like a 50:1 ratio
Thank you for such a helpful video. Keep them coming!
Sure thing Got some more projects to complete this summer
Hey man, thanks for the help - much appreciated!
Hi,
Thanks you for the video, very helpful. I have a question about which side of the film we need to paste on the glass door from inside of the home?
@@muhammadchughtai2394 yup inside the home
Ok. Thanks
Hi thank you for sharing this diy. Does this works on black films as well ..??
Thanks for this video man. Huge help.
Great video, thanks a lot! One question though: I may have missed that in the video, but you removed the transparent backing while the film was "glued" to the door, and in the next scene you started with the squeegee. Am I right to assume that you flipped the film first?
Sorry if this is a stupid question. :)
Yup flipped it to the side I peeled off
I agree this shouldn't have been edited out. It looks like it's one of the critical points in the process and it's left unclear. Otherwise, great hands-on explanation
@@ricardogarciademarinacordo1151 I agree too! Which side to place on the glass was the reason I searched for tutorials!
Thank you so much! You helped me alot! Got the rainbow effect foil and with your help , it‘s installed and pretty 🤩
I put up this product in my apartment. It didn't last more than a couple of weeks and it just fell down. I put it up multiple times, but have finally given up on it. However, I loved the look of it for the few weeks.
Weird, which pattern did you get?
@@AndreBhagwandat no pattern, just opaque for privacy.
Very clear very good directions Andre
Thank you for such a good, thorough instruction video!!The instructions that came with mine don't even tell you to use soapy water..it just says water. Obviously you are right, because the soapy water works really well!..What kind of soap did you use, by the way? Is it dish soap?
Just some regular Palmolive
@@AndreBhagwandat cool!..thanks!😉
Odd question, but what is fish soap?
@@urirknme4172 DISH soap, lol.
Same here - we hadn't seen this and just used water. Also - no corner tab on ours. We had a DREADFUL time peeling it!!
Great job! Great video! Thank you 🙏
Hahaha! You made me chuckle a few times. And you're correct - I'm going to use your instruction video because it's better! LOL Thanks for making and posting this. :-)
I did it wrong before watching your video, I don’t get why the plastic cover is protecting the side that goes inside? ! What’s the point? I thought the covered side was the one needed to be facing outside... I’m going to change it.... thank you! Great video and funny.
No problem, and it’s like a phone screen protector, that side has to be dust and dirt free to stay tacky so it can adhere better
@@AndreBhagwandat thank you
Hi! Great video- I’m struggling to figure out which squeegee to use (rubber or felt edge) - which one did you use? (Or rather which one did you find worked best?) thanks so much!!!
I used a rubber one 👍
@@AndreBhagwandat thank you!
Thank you for your help. Very easy with your instructions.
The side with the clear plastic should be against the glass, that's the side to wet and apply. Otherwise good info.
That’s what I did that’s the tacky side
Nope 😭, you had it against the glass with frosted side , peeled off rest of clear coat and but it against the window , sprayed smooth side while against window already , should have sprayed the window and the smooth side and then placed smooth side against glass
Mine came without instructions printed inside (despite what is said on the box). Thanks for this thorough and helpful video!
Mine just came and there are no instructions on the inside of my box either. 🙁
@@mamaduck308 actually, you need to unroll the entire sheet and you'll see it's in there. By the time I found that I had already finished the job lol.
This was super helpful. Thank you. 🙏
Is that a shirt from the basketball Jones dudes?!? :)
I wonder how long this stuff will stay on for, if it’s only held up by the water tension of what little water is left between the film and the glass.
Presumably, in time, it will just drop off?
Think about car tint it stays on for years with just water tension it has to do with the material I guess
So seem so kind i loved watching this video 🥰
Just a drop of dish soap mixed with tap water.
Also, you don’t need to spray both sides of the film - only the window & the side of film that you peel the clear backing off of.
Funny Intro!!!!
Sonia Boustany So truee you don’t have to but it does help minimize scratches that the squeegee might leave if pressing it dry
I've been fighting with it on the back of my aquarium. Seems to look good at first and after a day or so little bubbles pop up everywhere
Thanks for this! The QR code just took me to my Facebook not a video or even their page
Totally hilarious great video beginning isn’t THAT the truth creepers !! Excellent window film we have several of them but I struggle putting it up I need like 5 hands LOL thanks for your entertaining video post it to Amazon too ;) it will help all of us putting up window film ;) great job!
Great idea I will!
A bit confused about the cutting at 10:06
Is it possible to scratch your windows if you're cutting like that, or I'm missing something?
Wonderful. Ill happily do your laundry. Some items more than others.
Thank you. Appreciated the walk through.
Glad it helped
you did a great job. thanks!
Thought you were gonna lock your wife out at the end like a true Toronto mans 😂
So helpful! Thank you!! 🙏🏻
This helped so much!!! Thank you!
I'm curious how much this dampens the sunlight? I live in a pretty low level apartment so can't afford much light loss
Were you on Master Chef? You look the Andre that appeared on the show.
Thank you for measuring and sharing your measurements on video..seen other videos and none share the measurements..if my window is 29” height and 44” wide what toll should I buy??please help
The closest one you can get for perfect coverage is the 35” x 78. You’ll just have to trim it
@@AndreBhagwandat thank you so much! This helps a lot.
I prefer the adhesive type, over time the static kind will peel back at the corners and look nasty
Put it in sunroof. Pain in the ass but looks good at the end. Had the prism for the tiktok vid.
What a GENIUS IDEA?!!!! I’m on it !!
Hi there! Can I install from the outside? My inside window has bars and will be very hard to put it 😕
That's a tough one maybe just try it, it might not last as long because it's getting hit by the elements
Does it need any tape to strick or is the soapy water helps it to stay in place?
It’s has a tacky adhesive on the back once you peel off the clear film the soapy water lets you move it around before you place it exactly where you want it,
Worked great. Thank you!
“There’s PEOPLE out there!!!” 😂
Any advice for how to get the edges to stay down? I have issues where there are no bubbles throughout the any of the decal except for the edges I try to squeeze you to the edge of them to push them out but the air just keeps going under and within a day the corner starts to fall.
Try cutting it a little sMaller, sometimes the edges of the caulking can cause the film to not sit properly
Nice tutorial Andre, thanks.
Thank you 🙏
