Looking for a good exterior window film

Post by fowljesse »

I'm looking for a window film to cover my Plexiglass windows that is not expensive, but will work well for many years. It needs to protect the outside of the windows. I am thinking about replacing my windshield, and would need to protect it, but still have good visibility (I know it's illegal, and could kill me in a wreck). I looked into headlight covering film, but don't know much about it. Do any of you have insight?

I've done alot of research.
That link doesn't work for me.
I could use 3M stuff, but it would cost $1000, and I'm concerned about the vinyl's optical quality. I'm looking for something in between.

You mean you cant access the site or the company/product wont work for you?

I simply typed in "Window Strengthening film" in google and its the first one I beleive.

Try these guys out, Not much info on the site that could find, But maybe if you contacted them you could work something out. Looks good from the pics of a guy with a baseball bat smashing the window but doesnt break.
