It depends on your definition of "some". Mostly it block the view -- very well -- shapes can be seen but not detail and although the windows I covered are under a full awning, I have noticed no reduction in sunlight.

no this won't block out sunlight or shade the room. Check with Gilla brand for solar window film

I would think that it would. While you would still see the sunlight filtering through, it should be "thick" enough to help with glare. We have a nightlight behind the screen and it looks nice at night with the light behind...

Yes, I put mine on a window sill where sun comes in and it works just fine that way. Once charged full it will work indoors away from sun until the charge runs out. Great little device!

It can block some part of the sun but not totally ... However it's a great stroller I have owned ...it's easy to use ; love it !

It could work but remember this is reflective silver color if you don't mind blocking sun light this would work or if you cover the seams of the window by trimming it to fit this would work too. This product I would recommend it it works well.

Suspect it should. Am guessing you're trying to shade a child. It's just a matter of where you put the clips and if the window is fairly straight.

Works more like a solar shade. Certainly lessens the effect of the sun but does not completely block it. I used it to make outdoor pillows. Had a piece left over and held it up to sun, hence my opinion. Hope this helps

It will block any glare you may have but it will still allow light into a room. I used it once to block some sunlight while reading and my neighbors thought it looked great.

The top of the side wall is attached to the frame via Velcro. So, as long as the shade is 10'x10' and it has vertical legs (not slanted), it should works.

I put a different shade on it, and it works great. If you do get a shade, pick one with a small circular opening and the wire frame closer to the top of the shade rather than the middle.

The screens are translucent -- so if you have bright light, it will diffuse the light but not completely block the sunlight. I think it should work as a good block to keep the strong sunlight from "sunbleaching" fabric etc.

It would block out some sun but not all, I wouldn't use it that way. It isn't made to anchor in the ground either.

You can see through it - It will block the sun like shade it but not completely.

These blinds are for sun ONLY. The instructions say to roll it up when not using it to block the sun; especially when it's windy.

It is going to show light through it but it is heavily diffused. I put this up to block sunrays that come in at an odd angle blinding us. Now my hall window still provides nice soft light but is a fraction of the brightness and keeps temps down.

To get a definitive answer, I suggest you contact Heatshield. As suggested by other buyers here, it appears they may be able to make you a custom shade. How great is that!! Please post when you get an answer from them.c

I bought the golden/beige one and I use it to block the western sun. I really can't see anything through it in the daytime. I imagine if you and a light were behind it, it would probably show images/shadows.
