Better yet -- stop by your local auto supply store and get a roll

Is it really the same stuff? I'm envisioning the window film that auto stores
sell that normally is applied with soapy water and a squeegee. That's not the
same product. This stuff can be applied and reapplied thousands of times using
just your hand and a kleenex.


The window film at the auto stores is about 3-5 mil thick. And yes, I
apply it by cleaning the window and slapping it on wherever. It's
probably not as thick as the Sporty's stuff, but I've been using the
same 2-3 pieces for about 4 years now with no problems.

And every once in a while, I even clean the film.
