Specialization: Master in the construction of plasterboard structures, finishing work and laying flooring. Installation of door and window blocks, finishing of facades, installation of electricians, plumbing and heating - for all types of work I can give detailed consultation.

If you have faced a problem with the protection of the room from the summer heat and you need to solve it with minimal costs, the foil can be an excellent solution, and it can be used different options. I will talk about what can be found on sale today and how to carry out work to protect yourself and not to spoil the window.

Major products and their features

Foil for windows from the Sun can be different, I will tell you about those options that are most common. We will figure it out how to fix them better, in which the pros and cons of this or that decision and in what situations it is better to use a specific type of product.

Option 1 - ordinary foil

This solution has several undoubted advantages:

Democratic price In what, and in value this option does not have equal, the baking foil has an affordable price. If you need to solve the problem with the heat with minimal cost, then it is better not to find this way
Availability You can buy material in both household and food stores in which there is a small section with useful for the owners of small things. Roughly speaking, you can go beyond the bread and buy all the required sunscreen
Efficiency The foil surface very well reflects the sun's rays, thereby allowing to significantly reduce the temperature indoors without the use of special equipment
Easy use For work, you do not need a special tool and fixtures, the mount is performed quite quickly and very simple, below we will analyze this process in detail.

Naturally, this option has its own minuses:

  • The most important disadvantage is that the aluminum foil is opaque, so if you flush the windows completely, it will be dark in the room. Alternatively, you can close the window opening only partially, it will reduce efficiency, but will provide a room at least natural light;
  • Another minus is not a very attractive appearance. Of course, if you need to quickly solve the problem, and the kind is notable, you can not pay attention to this aspect, but still many people want the window to look more or less adequate;

  • If you do not know how to glue foil on the window and listen to the tips of pseudomaster, it is very easy to spoil the surface. Incorrect fastening makes the process of removing foil very long and tedious, you have to sit at the window for more than one hour.

We will deal with how the installation is carried out. I previously read the information on this issue on the Internet and know what I found? That the request "how to remove foil from the window" is far more often the question of how to glue it.

The fact is that many fasten foil as toning - they apply a soap solution on the glass, put the material and drive moisture from under it. As a result, when you need to remove protection, it is found that the foil is taken off with small pieces and other exit except to nourish over the window with the blade or construction knife simply not.

I will talk about a simpler way, it may be less attractive, but it takes a little time, and it will not be difficult to remove the foil.

Before glueing the material on the glass, you need to stock all necessary, the list is very simple:

  • Foil in the required quantity to determine how much it is necessary, measure the area of \u200b\u200bthe glass, then you can navigate on the spot on the basis of the width and length of rolls;
  • Scotch - the most common option will fit, but you can use both narrow, work will be a little more difficult with him, but the removal will be much easier;
  • Scissors are needed for cutting materials when working.

Work is done like this:

  • Initially, the window is rubbed so that there are no dust on the glass and the frame, which will allow scotch to glue much more reliable;
  • Next need to be measured to determine which pieces foil will be cut. To work, it is better to adjust either the table of large size, or free the area on the floor, since the material is very fragile and it can be easily damaged;
  • The sliced \u200b\u200bpiece of foil is placed on the surface, after which it is necessary to glue a piece of tape to the upper side so that it is half visible to the material;
  • Next, the element is fixed on the window, it is better to glue it to the framebut you can and right on the glass, everything depends on the situation;

Foil strips are better to glue each other on the window, and not on the floor or, so it will be much easier.

  • And do not forget that the material is opaque, so before you take some sections, you need to decide which part of the design you will leave open. Try to choose the plot to which the least of the whole sun shines.

A small advice on deletion - after dugouting the scotch, traces can remain, tie out which is easiest to determine the composition for windows.

Option 2 - Curtain film for windows

This is a more reliable type of product, which is specifically designed for use in window structures. Sunscreen curtains has a number of important advantages:

  • Strength - this material is much more reliable than fragile foil, so it is easier to work with it, you will not be afraid to damage the surface with one careless movement;

  • Comfortable dimensions - products are sold in rolls with a width of 60-100 cm and a length of 3 m, such a configuration is well suited for window structures;
  • Democratic cost - one roll will cost you only 100 rubles, and this is better when it is better than a simple foil;
  • Attractiveness - if you take installation in accordance with all the recommendations, your windows will look very carefully and even presentable;
  • Transparency - film reflects the light outside, but inside almost does not limit the review, only slightly darkens the glass. Thanks to this, you can safely close the entire area and provide the most efficient protection from the summer sun.

  • There are two product options, each of which has its advantages. One option is glued on the glass, and the second is used as a curtain, everyone has its advantages, and choose a specific solution to you.

Do not buy the products of Agrocheoztorg, as this is the most unreliable option from the market. On the package it is written "Beware of fakes", but the original does not differ in quality - there are cases when the material came into disrepair the day after gluing, and it was almost impossible to pull it away.

Now we will deal with how to spend your own hands, I will begin consideration with a simpler version, which is called "Curtains sunscreen" and can have different sizes. The workflow with this type of products is extremely simple:

  • Before sticking the chart, it is necessary to wipe the upper part of the frame, the material will attach much better on the clean surface;
  • Next, you need to deploy the canvas, make sure that it is suitable, after which it is necessary to remove the protective film with the upper adhesive strip and tightly press it to the frame, on this installation is completed.

The film skips light and can if necessary, push the curtain, which is very convenient.

Now we will deal with an option that glued on the glass, the instructions for working more complex:

  • To begin, we need to wash the window very well if there are any sorts or stains on it, then the film will only emphasize them and spoil the entire appearance of the window opening. For washing, use any means, the main thing is that the surface is clean;
  • Themes are then performed in order to determine the size of our glazed sections. After that, it is necessary to cut the material, but not exactly according to the parameters, and with a margin of 5 mm in all directions, this will eliminate the marriage when the crack remains around the perimeter, and it will simplify you work, because light dies are easily compensated by the material incentable;
  • The surface should be rich in the soapy solution, it will avoid immediately gluing the film to the glass and help adjust its position. To work the easiest way to use a spray gun in order not to fill the entire window design;

  • A protective layer is also removed from the reflective material and the same soap solution is applied to the surface. You should not have questions to which side of glue material - the reflective surface always looks outward, it is precisely it should be very abundant;
  • The prepared element is neatly located on the glass, thanks to the soap solution, the film moves well on the base, and you need to align it in an optimal position. On the surface there should be no big folds;

  • Moisture from under the film is traveled either by an ordinary cloth or with the help of a rubber spatula, if there is a hand. The work is made from the center to the edges, make sure that anywhere there is no moisture;
  • Lastly, the blade is cut off excess material around the perimeter, after that you can enjoy the result of the work.

The original nail design is now available at home. This requires a fantasy and a little special foil for nails. A flickering manicure that will play with all the colors of the rainbow will become an excellent addition to your party image. Creating a Neil-Design will not take much time, but will please you with its beauty and simple execution.

  • apply 1-2 layers of colored varnish while drying in the lamp. For transfer foil, use a sticky layer lacquer. After drying 2 layers, it is not necessary to remove it;
  • carefully apply the carved foil element and smooth down with a cotton stick or a special applicator, trying not to damage the coating;
  • if you used the translated foil, then the film needs to be removed and covered with a manicure top.

Translation design can be performed with ordinary varnish. This method is applicable to a hot film, which is glued on the color gel.

The second way with ready-made MINX stickers:

  • this option is rapid and easy to use, the stickers with the effect of gold, silver or lace look perfectly. True, such a Neil-art has a short sentence of socks, despite the application of manufacturers. Detect stickers from nails start 3-4 days;
  • on the prepared plate, it is necessary to smoothly attach the sticker with the image. Some masters are recommended to apply a matte lacquer in advance or glue the surface for better clutch;
  • heat stickers with warm air, such as hair dryer. So they will get soft, glue for foil melts and firmly connect a sticker with a nail;

Secrets of a good manicure

First and chief advice - do not forget to cover the nobs by fixing varnish for longer socks.

Transparent lacquer or gel will help avoid damage, scratches, and also give an extra shine to the manicure.

If the foil stuck unevenly, it is possible to get rid of it, removing the lacquer removal. But to remove the shellaca, a special liquid or apparatus will be required. Remove the gel manicure is independently quite difficult, but maybe.

Use only high-quality materials, otherwise the drawing can be blurred. Often, the gel varnish is to blame in a bad result, which can start bubble and straighten the film.

Foil background. Master Class

Spectacular work can be made even from the usual food foil - the one in which we bang different dishes.

For this we need

foil, acrylic soil, glue and ordinary sponge for washing dishes.

Immediately make a reservation: it is more convenient for me to use a pencil glue, perhaps some of you like it to glue into acrylic soil. In this case, Mastichein to help you ...


Firstly, we laugh with glue cardboard covers of covers so carefully so that there are no non-avoidable places. This is especially important if you plan to then use embossing (on foil, poorly glued to the base, bubbles may appear when exposed to a hair dryer).


Then crumpled foil (take a piece greater than the format of our cover) put on the cardboard basis and ...


we begin to finish it. The main thing is not to rearrange, so as not to turn the future cover in the perfectly smooth mirror. Our goal is to make beautiful chances. I first slightly approach Foil with my hand, then I spent on it with a sponge for dishes - not smoothed, sliding movements, but as if indulging foil into cardboard.

After we treat the facial side of the cover in this way, we add foil to the root side. Do not forget about the "edge": so that the cover loops seek clearly and the foil does not "walked" around the edge, "we roll our cover to the edge on the table on each side.


We turn the cover on the root side and glue a foil to a cardboard basis. Since the fauces will subsequently be glued to this side, then there are no chances here - we need as a smooth surface as possible, so we can glue with zeal, smoothing movements.



Those look ready-made covers


However, they are ready only half. Then the most interesting begins. We recruit acrylic soil on the sponge and rub on the cover. Why I tritura first ... Because I like not a homogeneous tight white background, but with transitions from gray to white - it gives the background a more complex and interesting aged look.
So, first rub the ground over the surface with wide movements


... And then we recruit the soil again and begin to process them separate areas of the surface in the Tech "PHF-PHF" to make them lighter. If the soil is a lot, then you can get this interesting texture (see in an enlarged form)


If we need scuffs for consupporting the effect, turn the sponge for dishes with a tough side and start scrubbing and scratching the surface



Then I use White Embospsing. On some angles, the result looks like this:
