Where the cost of sandblasted or etched glass is restrictive or removal of existing
glass panels difficult, etched glass vinyl film is an alternative solution.
There are many etched glass vinyl films on the market and although not as decoratively
pleasing as etched or sandblasted work they can provide simple solutions such as
fully obscuring a window for security reasons or adding simple lettering to existing
windows or doors.
The etched glass vinyl is applied in exactly the same way as sign producer's vinyl.
After removing the protective backing, the vinyl adhesive side is lightly wet to
allow manoeuvrability during positioning, it is then applied adhesive side down
to the existing glass panel. To achieve a professional finish, a vinyl squeegee
is used to remove retained water bubbles before trimming to size.

finished product no matter how complex the design.
David Sidgwicks can advise you on the different types of vinyl available as well
