GILA Rice Paper 36-in x 78-in Adhesive Privacy-control Window Film

Looks great

This was fairly easy to apply and helped block out my windows giving it nice sleek look!

Horrible to Install

I would absolutely NOT recommend this stuff to anyone. I have wasted hours trying to get it on my door and it just keeps curling up and off the window. I have had Halloween window clings stick better then this. Just go and buy curtains...

Not what it used to be.

It’s stuck on the entire door except for the edges just kept curling up. I could not get it to flatten. At 35 or $40 a roll I threw out the first one and I returned the second one. I won’t even try it. I have used this product before I have it on my side lights my bathroom windows and I have had it on my sliders before I did remove it years ago and I went back to this brand because I liked it. But I didn’t have any luck this time

It does give privacy day and night

I like that it does give privacy day and night. What I didn’t like is that it is tricky to put up and sometimes a bit challenging. I was able to put it up by myself. They recommend you to use the application spray. But sometimes it wouldn’t adhere because of that spray. The liquid dries quickly though. I had to pull it up and rub it back down constantly to try and get the bubbles out. It’s a process for sure. But in the end will give you the desired look that you are seeking. Providing you apply...

Poorly Designed

While I'm not a tradesman by occupation, I have significant remodeling experience. Despite following the installation instructions, I found this product incredibly difficult to install and am not pleased with the results. Because it comes in a roll, the sheet naturally folds in on itself during installation. It would not adhere along the corners and edges of the window and, despite my best efforts, I was unable to achieve a good bond. I would recommend against using this product. If you do choos...

Would not recommend

Very difficult to work with. This should be super easy to do, but it is not. I had an extremely hard time peeling off the protective layer, I could not get it to separate. I have had this for the last month and I give up, it is going in the trash. Every time I touch it to try again, I get more and more frustrated.

Installation Requires Patience

We used the white rice paper on a large tub window, a smaller bathroom window, and our front door. The finished job looks good, and we are enjoying the privacy without shutting out all the light. But the installation took the two of us most of a day and was frustrating. We had cleaned the windows well, scraped the glass with a razor, and re-cleaned and squeegeed the surfaces, but the corners and edges kept peeling. We ended up calling the support line, and the hair-dryer tip was emphasized (that...

Terrible

This is like parchment paper. Not at all a window film

Would not buy again

Extremely fragile and hard to handle. I’ve used other products that were much easier to handle and was much easier to move around on the window. After this dried and after very careful smoothing the paper the next day there were bubbles throughout the window. And unable to get them out. I would never buy this paper again.

Do Not Buy

I have been doing window tint here at my shop for 30 years. I bought this product to use on cabinet door glass in a kitchen we just installed. It would not stay flat while installing. Kept wanting to curl back. I did finally get two windows done. A few hours later, the edges rolled back up. I have installed thousands of feet of film in my life and never had any issues I encountered dealing with this stuff.
