One thing he failed to mention was the static. When you peel off the protective film the sheet picks up a static charge and immediatly starts attracting all the dirt and dust in the air to itself. You want to spray onto the film as you peel it off to help reduce this happening. When you go to apply the film both the film and the window have already been sprayed. As well as cleaning the window, you may also want to clean the window frame, sill and walls nearby. What I do is damp down the whole area around the window with a sponge. So then if you happen to touch the wall or frame the dust on it stays there instead of getting kicked up and attracted to the film before you get it in place.
@@Ironbuket really good info. I’ve done car windows but not home windows. I assume it’s the same process but easier. With it being reflective I’m assuming application would need to be on the outside so you can see out well reflecting light vs tint you put on the inside.
@@twowaymirrors I want to put this behind a 6ft antique half moon sunburst frame above my front door. The frame may not be sturdy enough to put a heavy mirror but a mirror film would work. Can I put this film over a not so thick plexiglass or stick it to the current piece of wood behind the frame? Where can you purchase this film? I didn't call my local glass shop yet since I just heard about this option from your video
I had a cool idea for a mysterio mask using a glass dome and oneway mirror film but I'm not sure if its possible or a waste of time and material because putting the film on round glass might be hard Any ideas if it can be done or not?
The one way film has a tint to it, but it is still clear (undistorted) it is similar to looking out a car window that has tint on it. Feel free to order a sample on twowaymirrors.com!
I think anyone can apply film a small square on a table. The hard part is applying and trimming the edges cleanly around moulding, rubber seals , and door locks in tight spots
Hello again :) I have a clean glass that it is see through almost 100 % and a matt glass which is again see through but not so great. in what of those glasses the mirror effect would be better, in what of those glasses i will see my reflection better? Right now on the matt glass that i apply the film, i have to go a little bit close to see my reflection cleaner(also it is a little bit blurry and dark).
I've purchased a large roll of Solid Double Sided Mirror Window Film and this video helped me A LOT. I couldn't even work out how to find and remove the adhesive film layer until i watched your video and applied the tape to the corners. Thank you!! 👍😊
Is that only one way mirror ? So if I wanna make two ways, then I must apply the mirror film in each side of glass ? Oh yeah, can mirror film replace by spray mirror ?
I has no idea this product existed! So, i've got this new 2019 4runner in Voodoo Blue, and combined with this film it would make my truck look like Cobra Commander. Should I do it? I think legality is the only thing stopping my decision
Sounds like a sweet idea! I am not sure it would be street legal afterward - this film is more for window privacy at home or in the office - it is only 5% transparent
Seriously!!! were you folks just handed this company from your Rich parents? because you need way more practice even your other videos with the girl wow bad!!! Not only that but your false advertising because I went to your website and you don't sell dichroic film like one of your other videos says.
@@twowaymirrors yes you applied a little film on a table. Please have a look at the size of the mirror film on the title photo compared to what you actually “installed” on the video. It is misleading.

I just used soapy water :) 100% great result .
Also the best squeegee is a cloth wrapped squeegee , glides trough like butter
Thanks for sharing!
So much bubbles on a small application
Practice makes perfect! Thank you for your feedback!

@@IL_Bgentyl No, these always go on the inside
OMG, what a bad job
Thank you for your feedback!
May want to re do that video lol
Stay tuned for the sequel, "Install Mirror Film Slowly & Carefully (2020)"

How can I put the window film on the 2nd storey windows?
From the inside!
I had a cool idea for a mysterio mask using a glass dome and oneway mirror film
but I'm not sure if its possible or a waste of time and material because putting the film on round glass might be hard
Any ideas if it can be done or not?
There would be too many wrinkles to get the perfect illusion. Maybe there is a reflective spray you can try!
im searching for a film that has the most clear vision from the no morror side. can you help me?
The one way film has a tint to it, but it is still clear (undistorted) it is similar to looking out a car window that has tint on it. Feel free to order a sample on twowaymirrors.com!
Hello feels I want to put in my window one way privacy, did samoane know where I can order?
We offer it on our website twowaymirrors.com
Hi, is it possible to apply mirror film on arcrylic plastic? ThANks!!!!
Yes, you'll just get a ton of bubbles.
@@twowaymirrors is there a particular reason? i'm going to try the same and some pointers would help? would it do the same with clear epoxy?
is it really bad when the glass is a little bit uneven?
The film does not apply well on curved surfaces. But as long as the glass is flat, it will apply!
Can this be used on a closet door
Yes, if it's a glass door. It will have a slightly fuzzy appearance
Can I install this on my ceiling?
Hi! No, it can only be placed on glass.
where can i get that led table!?!?
Great question! We just recorded a video on how to make it inexpensively using parts from amazon and twowaymirrors.com posting it shortly!

Hello again :)

Right now on the matt glass that i apply the film, i have to go a little bit close to see my reflection cleaner(also it is a little bit blurry and dark).
Just a standard window glass is best to use for applying film
left bubbles in the small piece, would be a nightmare on larger pice
It is very important to get all the bubbles out!
Can you apply this to close
I'm not sure, what do you mean by that?
Like to where it
Thank you 🙏🏽
No problem 😊
Does this work on plastic
Great question! It works, but you may get more bubbles!
@@twowaymirrors cheers buddy thanks for the reply
What kind of glass should i buy to make a smart mirror??
Smart Mirror glass is the best, if your budget allows for it: www.twowaymirrors.com/smart-mirror/ (I'd avoid two way mirror film, it's too low grade)
Two Way Mirrors, i cant find that in the UK can i just use a two way mirror, if so does it matter if its 6mm? Thank you
@@imran6067 We ship directly to the UK if you'd like to order from us.
Mirrors or acrylic sheet
The film applies to glass
I've purchased a large roll of Solid Double Sided Mirror Window Film and this video helped me A LOT. I couldn't even work out how to find and remove the adhesive film layer until i watched your video and applied the tape to the corners. Thank you!! 👍😊
Glad it helped! Film installation can be tricky if you don't have all of the mini hacks. :)
Can the film be added to wood?
Sadly, no--the 2-way mirror film requires a glass substrate. You might be able to stretch it in a frame though!
Does this work with plexiglass?
Yes, but it bubbles a lot
Mirror material name tell me sir without pasting material
Our two way mirror film!
@@twowaymirrors thank you so much sir 👍
Is that only one way mirror ? So if I wanna make two ways, then I must apply the mirror film in each side of glass ? Oh yeah, can mirror film replace by spray mirror ?
Just on one side. Spray mirror creates a frosted effect you can't see through.
@@twowaymirrors thanks a lot
Informative.
Thanks!!
you never said what the solution was that you used to cover the glass when you applied the mirror film
It is our application kit.
I has no idea this product existed!
So, i've got this new 2019 4runner in Voodoo Blue, and combined with this film it would make my truck look like Cobra Commander.

"What up!"
Oh you know! Creating helpful videos :) What up with you?!
@@twowaymirrors how do you remove moisture from under the foil
Didn’t explain the hardest part of covering an entire window or door and getting the seams to not be visible
You need to use more film application if you are having this issue! :)
Looks like maybe you can use toooooo much spray.
Indeed! It's important to use a squeegee to get out all the excess.
Seriously!!! were you folks just handed this company from your Rich parents? because you need way more practice even your other videos with the girl wow bad!!!

Glad to offer dichroic film and point you in the right direction!
Horrible! terminas de pegar la lamina y mostras a la cámara el lado incorrecto. El reflejo que mostras en muy deformado.
¡Gracias por la sugerencia!
jaja exacto!
WTH was that?!!! You did not install anything as the title said you would👎🏻
We showed how to apply the film. We have many videos showing the process! :)
@@twowaymirrors yes you applied a little film on a table. Please have a look at the size of the mirror film on the title photo compared to what you actually “installed” on the video. It is misleading.
first 1 second is enough to downvote lol So cringe.
yup
To much talking 😭
Thanks! We're about to publish a sequel that's about 5x as long :-D
Can one install this on a piece of metal sheet?
It works only on glass surfaces.
