How does plain window film work?
Plain window film is a sheet made of strong polyester laminate that uses clever technology to manipulate light. It represents a combination of layers – a base layer for adhesion, a core layer for privacy and glare reduction, and optional UV protection or scratch-resistant coatings. The plain coloured window film diffuses incoming light and offers a desired level of privacy. At the same time, the film does not block natural light. It can also scatter or absorb sunlight to reduce glare. Additionally, certain films may come with self-healing, reflective properties and more.

Choose the right installation with Tinting Chicago!
At first glance, plain window film installation might seem like a manageable project. However, the DIY approach will not work for commercial buildings that come with large windows or even expansive glass facades. Hiring professionals comes with a lot of advantages:
- Flawless application. An ideal finish is crucial for optimal performance and aesthetics of the film. Even tiny air bubbles can distort light and affect the film’s longevity. This is what experts do not allow to happen – you will enjoy a smooth, bubble-free application.
- Precise measurements and cutting. Professionals have experience in handling large film sheets and have tools to precisely cut it to fit your windows. You will avoid unsightly gaps or improperly sized film.

If the film is of high quality and if it has been applied properly, then it can last between 10 and 20 years. This also depends on how well it’s maintained, but with our films, you can rest assured knowing that you have a lifetime warranty for peeling, bubbling, or fading.
Basically, you can do that yourself, but you have to be very careful and very patient in order to apply the film perfectly without damaging the windows. It’s quite easy to get bubbles or wrinkles, and that’s why it’s better to get the help of an expert.
