Mirror film is used in many different ways, from skyscrapers to tv mirrors. Below, I talk a little about some of the more popular uses and recommend a few products.

Ready? Let’s go!

Here are some of the best mirror film products…

Mirror film works by using the light conditions that are present where you apply the film. If you are trying to use the mirror film in the daytime, you are going to achieve the privacy/mirror effect because the film with cause the mirror effect by reflecting the sunlight and not allowing people to see inside through the day. When nightfall comes, the opposit occurs. Since there is no sunlight to produce the reflective quality from the outside, people walking by are going to be able to see inside, and the person inside will have more difficulty seeing out because the effect is reversed.

There are many different kinds of mirror film with varying degrees of mirror effect to choose from.

  • The breakdown of one way mirror film
  • Two way mirror film is the greatest way to get privacy in your home during the day. The sun provides excellent mirror qualities during the day while still allowing you to see what is going on outside as well.

    At night for the best results, a light is recommended so you have the best visibility possible. The benefit as well is it blocks 99% of the uv light that is harmful, while also making it cooler to help with costs during the summer months.

  • Maintain privacy using two way mirror film
  • Does mirror tint reduce heat?

    Yes because it will reflect the sun away keeping the rays out and lowering the temp on the inside.

    Does one way mirror film work at night?

    One way mirror film does not offer the privacy at night that it does through the day. The main reason is because the film is more effective for sunlight and blocking sunlight to reduce heat inside. This is not needed for the night hours, so if you want privacy, mirror film is not the best option.
