Full Version: Finished some 4mil install yesterday
Yesterday we finished around 2000 sqt of 4mil for the local UN office. Everything went pretty smooth, the install went on all glass inside the office to protect against glass shatters in case of an earthquake. They had the window facing outside covered with 8mil, the worst install I have seen in my life, made by 3M directly....
nice hit bro
Thats cool....thats a big job with 4 mil how long did it take?
We begun at around 9.30am and finished at around 5.30pm, had 5 installers and 1 helper, I just did a little bit of cutting with a new cutting-help device I invented on friday for this job...

We did many same jobs on UN or American government buildings.....Film on film - and sometimes 2-3 times....That's funny, but hard for installers....
2k sq ft in one day? daaaaaaaamn!

Nice crew vzla 5 installers 400ft per and a helper piece of cake to knock out 2K ft of 4mil. QUOTE So You install Your film on existing? NO, there is no way I would have installed on the existing film. There are windows that face to the street that had already 8mil, then there are office devisions and doors out of glass, that's were we put our 4mil on. QUOTE What kind of cutting device did you come up with? Something very cool to cut right out of the box for this thinner films. I'll make a few modifications and post a few pics...
so you 30 mil cars/trucks, but you only put 4 mil on architectural. im confused
QUOTE im confused Why? Every client has its own requierements, in this case 4mil was the appropiate film to use. We have installled up to 60mil in offices...

For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
