Wet the window once last time, then wet the window again. Finally wet the window. When you are finished, spray the window with water, remove the excess and wet the window six more final times.

This is the best window technique I've seen in a while, from the way you cut the film, to applying to the window. Just accurate, must be very pro.

Awesome, cant wait to never ever try this myself

This technique works perfectly, even for non-3m film. I'll admit, I did skip a few wetting steps but the end product didn't seem to suffer. Thanks for upload!

I've done this every single fall since I was young. I am now 67. I should go into business doing this. I have a great helpful hint to shrink covering your windows. The top corners are the first thing that wants to release. Use clear packaging tape or white duct tape and tape the hell out of those top corners. You'll be glad you did. On some windows that have white trim. I white duct tape the whole frame.

Thanks for the great video

The following stunts are performed by highly trained professionals, don't try this at home.

That looks like a whole lot of amazing to install! I love a good challenge.

Those wondering if it helps. I dunno. It's meant to be a reflective insulator, like the foil you can put in attics. If it's IR reflective, it could turn some radiant heat away from the window in both directions. The normal rule of needing an air space to reflect radiant heat can be suspended if the object in the way is glass, and lets radiant IR through. Normally a reflective insulator needs an air space to reflect IR into, but with glass it _could_ work. If it's UV reflective, it could keep out some solar energy in summer, you probably don't have any interior UV to reflect back in in winter. I don't know if 3M's film does this though, or how well if it does. I'm just pointing out that a lot of traditional wisdom regarding IR reflective insulators (and not putting them directly against a surface) gets 'weird & not entirely true' if the barrier it's up against is transparent to IR. Just saying that the concept _could_ work.

Thanks for the Video. After watching a dozen of stupid beginners-videos, this is the first one, that shows how to do it professionally. THANKS !!!

informatic video

The chance of doing this yourself correctly first time seems low.

I just want to know if i will cut the excess film after the rubber on window? I cut it and I have space without film like the edges

What product are you using?

Excellent technique convinced me to not try DIY. 3M has a special sealant for doing around the edges, assume that should be part of the install. Obviously, when you have finished wetting the window one final time, ledged has it the installer is still on this window wetting it one final time.

Will this improve insulation on a upvc double glaze window or make no difference

does it help against the noise, too? if not, is there anything else you cold recommend? THANK YOU!

3:40: Do you have to turn the film around so adhesive between film & liner contacts window, or is the adhesive part of the film itself?

What a bloody performance - and what are the benefits installing that onto a double-glazed units anyways.?

where can you buy this film?

What is the ROI on this film ?

I overlapped by 52% and now I don’t know who’s house I’m in, is it still January?

wet the window again

This looks way more complicated than the regular 3M kit

Does this really save warmth in ?

How is he grabbing the liner from the outside??

If installed correctly on every window this should save about 50p to your yearly heating bill🙄

Is it good maintaining heat inside?

My god this seems hard to do

The video gets a bit confusing at 2:30. You distinguished between the "film" and the "liner" and insisted that the liner side must face up. Then, at 2:40, you ask that the "film" be wetted with water, except the "film" is now down against the table, and the "liner" is up, so this is actually spraying the liner with water. But when you later unroll the material, it's clear to me that the "film" side that's being left on the window actually had to be down in the step where you said it needed to be up and that's why you said to spray the water on the film rather than on the liner when it it was lying on the table. It's no wonder everyone is confused by this video.

I thought the liner was covering the side you should stick to the window? Why have a liner, what is it's purpose? This is not the side i see most people use.

Jesus H man, how many times do have to set the window? MFer used 60 gallons of water on 1 window

In only 100 easy steps and 3 rather difficult steps!

Well that seems straightforward 😢😢

Wet again wet again wet again. How many times wet again i'm so bloody confused

The title of the video should be “Reasons why you should never install 3M Thinsulate....”

Can you also install it outside?

So after all that work... it helps about 0.0000000001% of temp.

Blimey I think I'll just put on another layer of clothing.

Luckily there is another non-3M product for windows, wont look so nice, but is much easier to install with tape and hair dryer .

Yes it looks very easy to do but even easier to screw it up, get a pro in I think...

this will keep just about 0 heat outside because the film is absorbing infrared not reflecting it (pretty much impossible to do through glass short of actual mirrors) Long story short, your double-pane windows are now heaters in the summer. If you have single pane you need new windows anyway so might as well get the proper glass, but yeah theoretically the film would work "better"

Decent video but can’t get over the fact the narrator sounds like Jez off peep show

This is like a warning - don't buy it if you want to install it by yourself.

I thought that I was watching one of those "How to Insulate your Windows to keep the cold weather out" ?? Obviously, this is not one of them.

I would probably fail at the stage of cleaning the window...

Ridiculous commercials 🤮

Never, way to complicated

Remove

Not difficult but cumbersome 😒

Way too many tools for me. 🤣🤪 Milky blisters? 🤮

So easy....my goah...just people with mental problems can't install it. Well...my father used to say that it is needed 10 idiots for 1 smart one. We have a few here.

This person should not be demonstrating how to install window film as he doesn’t have a clue.

Terrible technique... you need a few more years of experience in order to make a video tutorial on how to install film.
