Hiii!

Does anyone here have any experience with UV protective window films? I've been looking at installing a few in my home but I have no experience with it, does anyone have any recommendations on good ones? (Easy to install, broad-spectrum UV protection)

I've installed Gila type film. (gilafilms.com) As far as I know it's one of the few DIY films. They claim that it will block 99% of UV but with gradual degradation down to 70% or so. No film is "easy to install." It sticks to itself, the glass has to be perfectly clean (or you get bubbles) and it takes practice. But if you're handy I say give it a shot -- it really does work and I think it looks good.
