To get the best out of your 3M Safety & Security Window Films, you must give them special care. Although 3M Window Films in general and the Safety and Security series in particular are not difficult to care for, you should still note a few things and pass them on to whoever is responsible for maintaining the windows.
- You may wash 3M Safety & Security Window Films with common washing solutions, including ammonia-based products, thirty (30) days after installation. It is important to keep abrasive-type cleaning agents and bristle brushes away from your filmed windows, as they might scratch the window film and ruin the elegance of your windows.
- You can use synthetic sponges, squeegees, or soft cloths with the cleaning solution; in fact, we highly recommend those. Using tape or other adhesive products on the film could compromise your warranty.
- After installation, there may be a hazy appearance on your windows. The moisture present during application causes this temporary condition. This hazy appearance will disappear after the film dries; however, it may take up to thirty (30) days for the film to completely dry. If you have just installed your window film, it might take a little longer to dry because cold weather conditions usually require additional time.
Most importantly, authorized 3M dealers should professionally install 3M Safety & Security Films on your windows. Better still, visit your local Window Film Depot to get the best solutions and care. For a complimentary feasibility study, contact Jeff@windowfilmdepot.com
