Window graphics: frosted, one-way or full colour?
Superchrome ·
Windows are often the largest free advertising space a business has. The right film depends on whether you want to be seen, to see out, or to keep people from seeing in.
Frosted and etched effects
Frosted film lets daylight through while obscuring the view. It is often used for meeting rooms, ground floor offices and glass doors, and it can be cut into patterns or lettering for a discreet branded look.
One-way vision
One-way film is perforated with small holes. From outside you see the printed graphic, and from inside you can still see out. It is a common choice for shopfronts and vehicle windows. Very fine detail and small text do not reproduce as well because of the perforations.
Solid and full colour vinyl
Opaque vinyl gives the strongest colour and blocks the view completely. It works well for promotions, and for hiding refurbishment work or storage areas behind the glass.
Cut vinyl lettering
For opening hours, names and logos, cut vinyl keeps the glass clear around the letters and gives a clean finish.
What to tell us
Send the glass sizes, which side the graphic will be applied to, and how long it needs to stay up. If you can, include a photo of the windows. More on our window graphics page.
