Sticky back Foil.

Hi

I need advice from the Crafters on here.

I need some Mirror Foil for two windows in my Conservatory.

Not the one way stuff, I need it to block out the view day and night.

It needs to be 90cms wide.

Any ideas where I can buy it?

Re: Sticky back Foil.

Tried Amazon or Ebay? I think that's where I'd start.

Hi

Yep, not found anything Barry.

i love cooking and entertaining.

The ambience is somewhat gone if your guests are sat down looking at a green wheelie bin, two water butts and a huge external RO Unit.

Re: Sticky back Foil.

Good morning, relative Newbie here, joined a long time ago but never as yet posted so here goes.

Seeing your thread reminded me I used something like this at one time so looked on Amazon to find there is something that seems to meet your requirements, see link below:

Hope this is of some use to you?

Swimmy - do you have a 'Range', 'Wilkinson's', or 'Hobbycraft' near you? If not you could find them on line - they sell that sort of thing.

Hi

Range is a 5 minute walk, no foil at all, still Christmas stuff.

Wilko would cost me a minimum of £6 to park.

No Hobby craft.

Re: Sticky back Foil.

B&Q, Homebase, B&M, product called (D-C Fix) all sorts of patterns but great for what you are looking for. Look on amazon sure they will have it? Just looked on line The Range have it usually by wallpaper dept from memory. Here is a link

Their search engines seem to recognise it as "window cover"

Privacy screening is what you need it comes in loads of colours and patterns, including mirrored. We use a lacy design on our front windows stops neighbours on the bit of our building sticks out looking in nosily.

Re: Sticky back Foil.

Try car window tint providers they usually do homes as well, the local company did my car and house (at different times and with different tints).

Re: Sticky back Foil.

Plus side with doing yourself with a covering you can remove easily is you can use it in rental properties, we looked at car window tints but they wouldn't have been allowed by our council and were really expensive in comparison.
