I'm looking for a shade I can mount inside and over blinds to keep reflections off a TV. Is this shade good enough for that?

I have the pebble beach color and it is a great shade. I bought it for our porch to protect from the full western sun in the afternoons. My hesitation in answering your question is that this is a true exterior shade. If you, are okay with that look then this is a great shade.

I paid someone to install the blind and the plastic endsBroke off before the shade was placed on the brackets. Do not buy.

If put a shade on it, you'll cover the part of the lamp that is supposed to vary light intensity in order to support the sleeping cycle. If you're trying to cover the bright display panel, then your shade would have to cover the entire lamp. I can't see that the lamp would serve any purpose if you did that.

I've only had one other shade than this one. I have found this one to reflex heat very well. I live in a place where we have 100 degrees a lot. The shade did an excellent job in reflecting heat. And it protects my leather seats from the sun.

I think so. For 25$ I would give it try. I have one bulb without shade. Other is with shade. I usually sit by unshaded bulb. Also Bulbs are very bright they make the room feel nice. I have one in bathroom that one helps with my contact lens every morning. Good luck. If they don't help please seek professional help. It is not worth living in funk all the time.

This is not a paper shade. It is laminated and feels like plastic on the inside and fabric on the outside. I put clinging decals on it for decoration. Thin craft paints might bleed but heavier ones would work on the fabric and you should be able to glue decorative trims on it without any problems.

If you mounted them outside of the window you would have to add a piece of wood at the top to hold the shade. This arrangement would work but not look very good. If you need an outside mount, buy a regular shade, not a pleated one, as that would look a lot better.

I have 2 of these blinds, when the wind gets up over 20 mph it will shake around. it will blow away if you don;t keep some weight in it.They work very well.

Depends on spacing of slats but lets say theyre 2in apart that would be 50% shade at noon.I believe the fabric alone would do better than that.I put it on over 2x2 spaced slats and provides great shade.I also have a couple 12 x25 pieces to cover my trailer when in the desert.

I feel it lets through a lot of the light. I only have two bulbs in my fan fixture. It's not super bright but it wasn't with my previous shade.

We do notice some reflection from some windows that are across our den from the TV set, but it doesn't bother us much. During shows we are deeply interested in, I closethe blinds on those windows & it is perfect. The picture is so good and colors so accurate that we don't let the glare bother us in our particular setting. I have not tried thefilters you mention, however. If it bothers you, I'd try experimenting with that.

I would say yes. I use mine to create a shade over my pool here in Nevada due to high 100+ temperatures. I don't mind a slight a slight sag in the middle. You can get the sagging out by using the correct screw brackets on each end to tighten the cover. I also use a fairly heavy set of 4 springs(one on each side) to give it a little bounce during the windy days.

You definitely could not use this screen as a mirror, even when it's off. I've had absolutely no glare issues with it since I bought it, but it isn't in the very brightest room in my house. So, upon seeing your question, I did some tests: I turned in all the lights in the room and opened the blinds while it was sunny out. On a colorful screen, I didn't notice any glare, so I switched to a screen with a plain blue background. On the plain blue background I did notice some reflections of objects very close to the screen when I looked carefully from the right angle. There was no glare from the lights at all. I cannot answer definitively, but compared to monitors and televisions I've had in the past, this screen seems to handle potential glare very very well.

Not at all. The darkest shade will work perfectly for you. It looks a lot lighter in the package than it actually is.

Nice shade. Functions very well for us. It most certainly can be mounted to either a wall or ceiling.

The glass shade is pretty heavy and flops down. We use it on a desk and it works great for that.

We used it to cover our skylights. It isn't reflective but I guess you could make a shade out of it if you were an experienced seamstress or tailor. It would block bright light like one of those pull down shades you see at many restaurants.

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
