VISTA solves the problems of fading and glare, and damage to furniture. Most importantly it helps make occupants feel more comfortable in the room.

Window film is a microthin film composed of polyester and metallized coatings bonded by adhesives that is installed onto glass surfaces to provide significant solar protection. It screens out heat, blocks out 99% of the sun’s damaging ultraviolet rays and deflects glare while allowing natural sunlight to pass through. It can turn regular glass into safety glass by increasing strength up to 300%. See similar questions...

The sun will often damage window treatments, such as draperies, curtains, blinds or shades. Window film protects all furnishings, including window treatments. See similar questions...

Whether window film should be used on low E windows and how much you will benefit depends on three factors: There are two basic types of low E surfaces on glass. One of these is a conductive coating put on glass as it is being made. It gives some heat loss reduction, but does little to reduce heat gain into a building. The second type is a more complex system of multiple layers of metals and conductive coatings deposited on glass after it has been made. See similar questions...

Window film adhesive should not make contact with plastic, Plexiglas, acrylic, or lexan surfaces. The film's adhesive contains chemicals that could react with the organic base of a plastic surface to produce a milky, bubbly appearance. Your plastic surface will never be clear again. If, however, the appearance of the plastic is not important, film can certainly be applied. Suggestion: GILA brand removable-reusable static-cling vinyl is perfect for use on flat plastic surfaces.

Yes. VISTA Window Film is professionally installed and can fit virtually any size and shape of flat glass windows. See similar questions...

The static cling films and decals simply peel off of the window. You should save the original backing to store them for use the next time. The adhesive films can also be peeled off of the window when you are ready to remove them. Warming the film with a blow dryer may be helpful. If any adhesive residue remains on the window it can be sprayed with windex or wiped off with turpentine or an alcohol-based solvent. Let the product set on the adhesive for a few seconds, and then wipe clean. See similar questions...

Staying on top" depends on the window manager in a way largely out of Perl/Tk's control. Until we make the time to write up a more complete explanation, see the Tcl-ers' Wiki for hints as to what's involved. Most of this general theory is irrelevant. What people generally want is for dialog boxes to stay high when wm->transient is set, and this is reasonably reliable. See similar questions...

Many people incorrectly believe that this cannot be done in Windows 98. It just requires an extra step. (If you have a really old version of Windows 98, you might need to download some of Microsoft's updates first.) Open the properties dialog for the folder for which you wish to display thumbnails (right click, then select properties, or highlight the folder, then do file->properties). Now check enable thumbnail view, and proceed as above for newer versions of Windows. See similar questions...

You must trap the events that are generated when the window is covered and place the window back on top: When running an application under the Motif Window Manager, it is impossible to bring the Main Window to the top. This is a feature of the Motif Window Manager. If you want to have the ability to bring something from the Main Window to the top of the window stack, you can consider putting it in a secondary window, rather than the main window. i.e. See similar questions...

There is nothing you need to do to clean the windows before the installation. Our tint specialists conduct a thorough window cleaning before applying the film to make sure that dirt and other impurities are not trapped between the film and the glass. See similar questions...

Simple! Use a non-abrasive, non-ammonia based window cleaner. Dishwashing soap and water is best with a soft damp cloth, soft paper towel or a squeegee. If you have professional window cleaners, just make sure to tell them that the windows have been treated with window tint and not to use a razor blade. See similar questions...

Yes, we order window films with a scratch resistant coating that will withstand the day-to-day traffic of house pets. There are no harmful chemicals emitted from the film while installation is in progress or after the job is completed. See similar questions...
