Before Install

Sunray® Window Films installed 3M Night Vision 15 to the existing glass lites at Premier Spay/Neuter & Wellness Center. Located at 7876 Broadview Road Parma, Ohio 44134.  Heat Gain coming in through the windows was dramatically reduced once Sunray® applied the 3M commercial window tint/film to the existing glass lites. Once applied, management noticed a 10-12 degree decrease in temperature, making it more comfortable for customers, animals, and employees.

During Install

3M window film can reduce high energy costs, while improving interior comfort and maintaining your storefront aesthetics. Sunray® is the authorized 3M window film dealer that installs window film on all types of glass, small and large commercial window tinting projects nationwide!

You ask why?

The answer is simple… If you have been installing window film for a  minimum of (3 years) you can have your own protected territory as an Authorized Anti-Fog Window Film Dealer. Anti-Fog  is a 4 mil film that can be applied to any glass surface where fogging of a window can occur. With that being said, grocery store freezer doors, hotel mirrors, shower doors, and even car windows can fog up. For example: Anti-Fog  film can help with a grocery store freezer door from fogging up, preventing the next customer from seeing the merchandise and wondering if what they are looking for exists.

With this film applied, the sweat heaters that control the fogging of the glass can now be unplugged. Sweat heaters can be very costly, depending on the amount of doors that open and close. They can cost a grocery store $100-$150 per door per year. How much is that with a store that has 144 freezer doors? Answer: Average annual cost at $100.00 is $14,400.

Now with Anti-Fog freezer film, the glass is clear, energy is reduced, and utility companies are offering a refrigeration rebate in your state. What more could you ask for to solve those slow winter blues! Sign up today, and bring in more $$$ and another product to your existing window film business,

One such amenity was a uv window film. This particular film was installed about 5 years ago and had looked very bad! It was a window film made by a manufacturer other than 3M. The Sunray™ installers had tried to figure out who the manufacturer of the product was because of how cheap the film was and how bad it looked for being on the glass since 2004.

Sunray™ installers did not have to look long to figure out who installed the window film in 2004. They found a sticker from a local competitor.

 I refuse to give my competitor any publicity but believe you can figure out who they might be and that they used a CHEAP product that rusted on the window when they installed the window film on this home in Westlake Ohio.

Sunray™ installed 3M RE50NEARL( Download RE50NEARL) and removed and replaced the bad film that had been applied previously.The homeowners was very pleased and now have a new 3M window film Lifetime Warranty backed by a 25 billion dollar company. Their warranty covers.

I am asking this because what is the difference between the products. Is the Gila (do-it-yourself) any better or worse than the llumar or vista window film brands?

From the Authorized LLumar and Vista Dealer standpoint:

– Are you dissappointed with your manufacturer for taking sales away from you?

– Can you explain to the customer why your Llumar product is better or worse than Vista?

– Can you explain to the customer why your Vista product is better or worse than Llumar or Gila?

– Why do their sample cards give you performance for 1/8 inch clear single pane glass?

     – If their CDF adhesive is so good, why don't they have an easier way to remove the film when the needed to be removed?

– Why isn't their CDF adhesive used on Safety & Security Films is it's so great?!

I am not trying to pick on the Authorized Llumar or Vista Dealers… just the companies who make their product line. All Film Dealers are just trying to make a living selling what they know and love… Window Tint Film. Stop Selling to the consumers!!! Stop making GILA Window Films!

The post Gila® – Llumar® – Vista® window film vs. 3M™ Window Films appeared first on Sunray® Window Films & Installations.

Founded over a century ago as Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company (the three Ms in 3M), 3M began as a mining venture but the five founders quickly shifted their focus to sandpaper products.

3M has enjoyed a seemingly endless string of innovations. 1925 launched the company’s iconic Scotch® brand, after lab assistant Richard Drew invented pressure-sensitive tape. 45 years and thousands of innovations later, another 3M product gained iconic status when Post-it® Notes forever changed the way people organize and communicate small bits of information.

Our favorite 3M milestone date is February 8, 1965. On this date, Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing scientists David Antonson and Gerald Berger filed a patent application for something called “Transparent and Reflecting Articles.”

You guessed it: Antonson and Berger invented the world’s first solar control window film. The invention was granted Canadian Patent No. CA 724101 on December 21, 1965 and U.S. Patent No. 3,290,203 on December 6, 1966.

DID YOU KNOW?

• Most window film manufactures specifications are for 1/8″ clear glass? Who has 1/8″ clear single pane glass in Ohio? Most of our windows since I can remember have had ¼” Clear Insulated Glass. Aka -Double Pane windows  See Vista Window Film and Llumar Window Film.  So Vista and Llumar window film specifications are misleading!!!

• In order to become a Llumar Authorized Dealer:  Get a business license and you’re on your way to installing LLumar Film on Customers homes and businesses…  (Doesn’t sound like Llumar has any specific training on how to become certified!) Another words, do you really want someone who doesn’t have proper training to install film on your home or office?  Go ahead call Llumar directly at: 1-800-255-8627 and ask how to become an Authorized Dealer. You will see how easy it is!!!  Now, try to call or contact 3M Consumer Safety and Light Management Dept.  3M Center, Building 223-2S-24 St. Paul, MN 55144.  1-800-480-1704.  http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/WF/3MWindowFilms/    Do your research, and see the difference of what a 3M Authorized Prestige Dealer “Sunray Window Films“ can do for you.
• Llumar, Vista, Madico, all use a dry adhesive system. Otherwise know as CDF, CDA, etc… Dry adhesive systems are the backbone for lower end film manufactures. I have used all of these products in the past and enjoyed using them as a stepping stone in order to get my foot into the industry. They are easy to install, but VERY HARD to remove! VERY COSTLY TO REMOVE, AND THE POSSIBILITY OF SCRATCHING YOUR GLASS PERMANENTLY. If the CDF Adhesive in Llumar, Madico, Vista, are so good, then why don’t they use this adhesive on their Safety & Security Products and their Decorative Window Films?

3M, known for manufacturing adhesives, uses a PSA Adhesive System. Window film is only as good as the adhesive system behind it! 3M is the only window film provider that produces its own adhesive system developed specifically for window film.  This patented pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA) is engineered to form an aggressive mechanical bond to the glass that can be easily removed at the end of its useful life. The result will be a clean, long-lasting installation with excellent impact resistance, and no bubbling, blistering, puckering or wrinkling.
