| Here
are some before and after tips you may find useful.
Before
your window tinting is installed:
Clear the Way!
- Remove or secure Window Treatments away from
the glass
- Move any pieces of Furniture, Artwork or
Electronics near the windows
- Be prepared to keep curious pets from the
installation areas
Airborne Contamination Reduction
- Do not Vacuum on installation day
- Turn off all ceiling fans and redirect A/C
vents
Pre-Installation Inspection
- Inspect for broken glass, loose panes and
other glass fixtures such as security stickers
and alarm attachments
- Discuss glass breakage history and IG unit
seal failures, if any.
After
your window film is installed:
Film Dry-out Time
- During the installation process, trapped
moisture can cause small bubbles and/or slightly
cloudy film. This should be expected and will
fade during the Dry-out time
- Do not attempt to pierce the bubbles –
the damage to the film is not covered under
warrantee
- Dry-out time can take up to 6 months and
will vary based on film type and location. For
example, direct sunlight will shorten the Dry-out
time and the thicker film will take longer.
The trapped moisture will dry out – be
patient
Cleaning Tips
- Do not clean the window film for 30 days.
This will ensure proper curing of the special
mounting adhesive to the glass.
- Do not use ammonia-based products. Dish soap,
baby shampoo or old-fashioned vinegar and water
work great.
- Use soft materials such as new smooth sponges
to clean and dry clean cloth or squeegee to
dry. Do not use any abrasive materials or any
materials that may be contaminated with dirt
particles, like old sponges.
