Is this stuff effective in keeping the radiance of the sun out of your room if you staple it to your window frame?

Yes, I use it in RV windows and it's remarkable at keeping the light and heat down. It would IMO work terrific in windows, just remember it's opaque.

This product is supposed to keep fabric from fading in the sun. I applied this in the late fall and cannot say as to its effectiveness so far. That being said I can only say that the umbrella itself should reduce your exposure over 50% from the information I've found online.

Nancy, We used this on a skylight to reduce possible damage to paintings hanging below. As far as I can tell, it doesn't cut down any light (or glare) as it is clear. Ted

I applied this tape to seal drafts from an old sliding window in a small bedroom. The window gets a few hours of direct sunlight. I have never detected any appreciable odor from the tape.

I think so. It might come off with moisture/ temperature since it is removable. I imagine it would be like one of those sticky cling plastic things that would stick to windows, just without the adhesive. I would give it a try. :)

It definitely helps with the sunlight and the heat created from the sun but I wouldn't say it's substantial. More for privacy.

It will work but you might want to build simple frames to go over your windows maybe just inside the frameworkAnd use clear tape or staple it on the frame with a staple gun. It is nice and clear. We used it for a greenhouse andFor windows to help insulate the house.

I used this inside on a drafty window in my living room which faces southwest to keep the cold out and it worked GREAT. I had to tape two pieces side-by-side (I used silver duct tape on both the front and back to ensure no air leakage) and made the piece large enough that it covered part of the window frame, too. Duct tape held it all the way around the outside of the window frame and the room was immediately 10 degrees warmer. Its not a real pretty fix, but it solved my problem.

I bought it for the same reason. It works great for blocking that irritating light shinning through the window.

i don't think so.. it kind of glows more than shines. and if you put it on the floor, it would probably not go over the cubicle walls too much. i actually put it on the floor outside my office with the door open and i keep thinking the sun is coming thru the window - but it's just the light. so even if your coworkers see it, it would probably not bother them.

Absolutely. I used it to cover my van windows in the desert and it worked great. One caveat -- I installed this outside, covering the windows and it is VERY reflective. Your neighbors might not be pleased.

We applied it to the inside of skylights. It isn't reflective. It has a slight tint to it as opposed to clear galss. It significantly reduced the heat gain in the house in summer with no appreciable heat reduction in winter. Highly recommend the product.

No, it will not ruin your window. It just uses static cling to stay in place.

We use it in our motorhome to block more sunlight in the morning. We put these up using little velcro tabs and remove the shades when we pack up or if we just want the windows open for a breeze.

I don't think so. . It isn't sealed . I set mine on sunny window . It holds a for a long time and will stay on for a long time. .

I don't think so...it is a mesh material, not total sunblock, like a black out curtain.

I have also just used it on my windows. It would need to be attached to something to stay secure. Tape will not stick to it. You would probably have to use nails. Thinking of using this also when I enclose my covered patio. Good luck!
