Anti Reflective Film


Recommended Posts

I am a homeowner and my local tinters have no knowlege about AR film.  I wondering if any of you can help.

 

I have an issue with internal reflection.

 

I just had a corner window installed with approx dimensions of 141'' x 48'' and 78'' x 48''.  The two panes are siliconed together. The glass used was PPG Solarban 60 (double pane and low E), which has an internal reflection rate of 12% or %16 ( I have heard two different sets of numbers from different sources.).  The internal reflection   makes looking out at the view difficult.  Though apparently I am more sensitive to the issue than friends and family

 

I have seen two products advertised

I think it would be impractical to apply film to all four sides of a double glazed window as the manufacturer suggests, but two sides would be possible.

I would attach a pic of my window if I could figure out how to add an attachment.  Thanks in advance

Off the shelf thinking here, but would a Matte PPF work in this situation to reduce the reflection on inside of the glass?  Unsure on the longevity of the film in this case, but one would assume it would be fine as well as add an additional layer of protection to the glass itself.
