Can this be applied to a window? Does the vinyl cut out contain a margin of clear around the colored elements that would look odd on a window?

The decal is cut from a solid piece of vinyl, so no clear border. It is different from the type of vinyl that you can get for windows, as it appears to have an adhesive on the side that adheres to the wall. You should contact the seller to see if it can be applied to windows as well as walls.

I am honestly not sure about the window. If it could stick I don't think you could ever take it off. And no on the clear

I am not sure. The vinyl is adhesive on the back but I use it on hard, flat surfaces like glass, woodo and walls.

It isn't vinyl. It is thinner like the contact paper you might have covered books with in school in the 80s ( I hope I'm not dating myself) but it is super easy to work with and peels and red ticks very easily. As long as the decals you want to make don't have thin lines, it should work

The packaging instructions say DO NOT use with wallpaper. May not adhere well to vinyl surfaces.

I am no expert on this, but I believe you would apply the film to the inside part of the windows. I know that's were mine went. I have heard of people installing the film on the outside, but it would seem to have a shorter life time due to the elements.Craig

No. I placed my vinyl on the outside of the glass. I used outdoor vinyl. Loved the glasses. Great deal. Good quality.

This vinyl is not used for that. In order to do that you would need to buy vinyl specifically stating heat transfer on it.

Dear Amazon User, I installed clear, colorless UV blocking film from Gila on the bottom row of my french window (with 4 rows) because the light only came through the bottom row due to the overheng of my roofline. I found that I cannot see any difference in the coated windows versus the uncoated. It is quite undetectable. Ken in So Cal.

You can cut it, but the problem with that it becomes a bit too small to cover the window. I used it to cover my rear window in a Toyota Rav4 and it covered well but there were still areas that were uncovered that the sun came through. Just a suggestion, go to an automotive store that has tints for windows, it's just as easy to get them on, they come in a variety of shades and you get a better fit. Good luck.

Yes, it is easily cut with scissors -BUT- you may wish to consider using a straight edge and a razor (rotary cutter is even better) to get a straight line. Use a spray bottle filled with warm water and a few (just three or four) drops of dish soap, spray the window the film is being applied to and squeegee the window clean, repeat the spray and then apply the film. If you don't squeegee the window or don't spray it down with the mix and apply the film wet, you will get big air pockets and it will look horrible when done. Once the film is on the window, TAPE IT TO THE TOP of the window, then use your squeegee to press out all the water.

Im not sure if you would use this to cover a window, but the solids(no pattern) is very private. I did notice however that there were some slight mold stains in a weird location (arm length) and I thought these were mildew free.

I don't see why you couldn't cut it to fit your window. It is very clingy and loves to cling to itself.. so maybe trace out your window on paper first and place it on cardboard to cut.

None of the vinyl in this package is clear. You might try self adhesive clear shelving paper instead. It can be repositioned or removed easily. That would be a great way to experiment to see if your idea works.

It's true that it interfere with the upward operation of the window. I was able to sand it a little bit to minimize the interference and I also applied a thin coat of silicone on the window channel and the ventshade channel area, this helped a lot.

Yes, it is perfect because it is thin enough to cut and doesn't make a mess. I just cut it to fit the windows and use double sided adhesive strips to stick it to the glass.

If you use vinyl sticker material it would provide a better seal and crisper lines with higher resolution, however, it might be like removing a band aid when you're done.

I rolled it out for th width if the window and pieced for the height of the window as it was easier to match th pattern. You can see where I pieced it up close but not from a distance so much. I figured if it looked bad I could cover it with a long valance. It is great for privacy which is what I was looking for and still let's light in.
