Decorative Films vs. Etched or Sandblasted Glass
Decorative films, while similar in appearance, offer many advantages over traditional etched or sandblasted glass. For starters, films are generally significantly less expensive than traditional glass altering treatments. They are also stronger, more durable, easier to clean, highly customizable and removable. In many cases, decorative films are now specified by architects over traditional acid etching or sandblasting techniques.
Can Decorative Window Films Be Customized by Shape/Pattern/Text?
Yes – many of these films are designed with customization in mind and can be cut into any shape. Decorative films are useful for branding, mission statements, motivational signage or any imaginative shape and pattern design.
Can Window Films Be Printed On & Then Applied to the Glass or Wall?
