How Mirror Film and Vinyl Film for Mirrors Can Change Your Mirror Décor
Advantages of Using Mirror Film
Adding design to your mirrors offers a quick route to introduce detail into a room. Mirror film is an adhesive sheet that sticks to the surface of the mirror, letting you change its look with ease.
It’s available in a variety of finishes such as etched, tinted, or shaded options, helping you match the film to your preferred design. There’s no need for a full replacement to achieve a new look.
Why Pick Mirror Film?
- Budget-friendly: Altering your mirror with film is cheaper than buying a new one.
- Style choices: Choose from tinted for warmth depending on your goal.
- DIY application: You can fit the film yourself with little effort.
- Long-lasting: High-grade mirror films are designed to last and hold their colour.
Understanding Mirror Vinyl
Mirror vinyl is crafted from soft vinyl that’s used for more customised mirror decoration. It's used to create designs, logos, or patterns that are applied directly to the mirror surface.
This makes it great for creating artistic features or graphics without replacing the mirror.
Benefits of Mirror Vinyl
- Customisation: Incorporate logos, motifs, or text for personal looks.
- Adaptable material: Sticks to glass and other flat surfaces.
- Non-permanent: Vinyl can be peeled off without leaving residue.
- Simple upkeep: Wipe clean with minimal effort.
