Product Information

Full details

The SOLYX Ultracool-S6060 is ideal for homeowners and renters looking to boost energy efficiency and gain daytime privacy without sacrificing natural light. This silver-tinted window film excels at reducing solar heat gain and blocking UV rays, though users should note that its reflective nature primarily offers privacy during daylight hours when exterior light is brighter than interior light.

FAQs

Can I use this on double-pane windows?

While it can be applied to many glass types, please consult with a professional if you have high-performance or insulated dual-pane glass to prevent thermal stress.

Does it provide privacy at night?

No. When it is dark outside and you have lights on indoors, the effect reverses, and the glass will look like a mirror from the inside while being transparent from the outside.

Is the adhesive permanent?

The film features a clean removable adhesive, making it suitable for renters who wish to remove the film when moving out.

What tools do I need for installation?

You will need a spray bottle with a mild soapy solution, a clean microfiber cloth, a high-quality squeegee, and a sharp utility knife.

How long is the warranty?

The SOLYX Ultracool-S6060 comes with a 5-year manufacturer's warranty.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles remain after installation

Use a squeegee to gently work the water/air toward the nearest edge. For stubborn tiny bubbles, wait a few days as the moisture typically evaporates through the film.

Film is peeling at the edges

Ensure the glass was cleaned thoroughly before application. If edges lift, they may be contaminated with dust; use a small amount of water to re-adhere.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This film is designed for installation on the interior surface of standard glass.

Installation Tips:

  1. Thoroughly clean the glass with a non-ammonia cleaner to remove dust and debris.
  2. Spray the glass surface with a soap-and-water solution to allow for positioning.
  3. Peel off the synthetic release liner and apply the film carefully.
  4. Use a squeegee to push out water and air bubbles from the center toward the edges.
  5. Trim excess material with a sharp utility knife.

Care Instructions: Avoid abrasive sponges or window cleaners containing ammonia, as these can damage the metallized surface. Use a soft cloth or a microfiber mop with a mild soapy solution to clean the film safely.
