I was very happy with the installation of the film. The installer was on time and was very careful and neat throughout the installation.

Their sales, scheduling and installation people were outstanding; very professional and responsive. I had just refinished my beautiful mahogany floors and send my shades out for cleaning. They understood my concern with UV rays and sent their best technician to install the 99% effective UV films in my apartment. I am now going to use them in my beach home. I'd rate them a 10! They put up samples of different films so I can choose which one I like best to protect my furniture and silk rugs but have no effect on seeing the beautiful view outside.

this company is a scam. I ordered the window film from this company a coupe of years ago. they sent a installer that was totally unqualified and not careful. It moved the ladder recklessly despite being told to be careful a few times. It ended up breaking my Chandelier fixtures. I was fed up with unprofessionalism and reckless, and asked for the damage compensation and full refund. They were being very rude and in total denial of the whole incident. Don't ever use this company!

The use of glass walls and partitions to create an open airy feeling in corporate offices is standard today. Still, the need for privacy remains. Decorative window film is the solution – an easier and more elegant alternative for providing as much privacy as desired while retaining an open, airy feeling and with an aesthetically pleasing result.

How do I wash my windows?

MetroSolar | Oct 8, 2018

3M is the only company that allows the use of any product, ammoniated products included, to be used to wash the windows. It is recommended that they not be washed for 30 days after installation.

Will Low E windows, UV rated windows, or factory tinted windows solve solar problems?

MetroSolar | Oct 8, 2018
MetroSolar | Oct 8, 2018

Low E windows help retain heat in the winter. They will provide only minimal savings in the summer. UV rated windows do provide good UV reduction, but do little in terms of energy saving and fade protection. Fading is also influenced by infrared heat and visible light, which UV windows do not affect. Factory tinting will provide some heat and glare reduction, but window films do a much better overall job of fade protection and heat reduction.

How is window film installed?

The glass is scraped and thoroughly cleaned with a solution of water and a mild detergent. The film is cut to a size a bit larger than the glass. It is then applied using the same solution. Excess water is squeegeed out and the film is then trimmed close to, but not touching the frame. Although not usually needed, drop cloths are often used to absorb any excess water.

Will my windows appear mirror-like if I use window film?

MetroSolar | Oct 8, 2018
MetroSolar | Oct 8, 2019

The reflective high-performance films, that provide maximum heat reduction are most often used in commercial buildings. If there is more light on the outside than there is on the inside, privacy window films can let you see out - while others may not see in.

Will window film alter my view or change the appearance of my interior surroundings?

MetroSolar | Oct 8, 2018
MetroSolar | Oct 8, 2018

Many window films, the 3M Prestige Series in particular, will provide superior performance with virtually no change in the light. If glare reduction is desired, a tinted film is required (giving your window sunglasses). However, the change in appearance is minimal in comparison to the benefits that will result.
